Power Supply Monitor Manages DC/DC Converters

Linear Technology has introduced the LTC2978 power supply monitor and controller for digital management of up to eight 0-6V power supplies. Configuring multiple DC/DC converters in an already complex system can be a complicated design task when using passive components. Values defined by external trim resistors and capacitors such as start-up time, set point value or switching frequency make a system inflexible.

To alleviate these issues, digital control over analogue power suppliers has allowed for quick adjustment of output voltages and precise protection, monitoring and diagnostic mechanisms. The LTC2978's PMBus-compliant interface provides easy access to an on-board EEPROM, giving users supply configuration, fault response and logging capabilities.

In addition, an array of supervising, margining and sequencing functions make the LTC2978 an all-in-one digital power management solution, simplifying the design challenges and reducing the component count typical of traditional analogue control. Linear Technology said the LTC2978 provides numerous functions with on-the-fly adjustments that make it suitable for digital power control in a variety of automotive, medical and telecommunication applications. An integrated 15-bit ADC and 9:1 ADC MUX allows the IC to accurately monitor and servo eight output channels and one input channel.

The primary PMBus operations include sequencing the start-up of supplies, adjusting point-of-load voltages using voltage-buffered 10-bit current output digital-to-analogue converters (IDACs), margining voltages to programmed limits and supervising output voltages, as well as the LTC2978's die temperature, for overvalue or undervalue conditions. The configuration settings of these operations are user-programmable and can be stored in EEPROM, along with any faults, allowing for discontinuous system use.

A programmable watchdog timer is also provided to supervise an external microcontroller, FPGA or ASIC. For applications that monitor more than eight supplies, the LTC2978 can be cascaded using only two connections. This high level of mixed-signal integration ensures that the LTC2978 can reliably manage complicated power supply systems with ease, according to Linear Technology. The LTC2978 is available in a 64-lead 9 x 9mm QFN package that is RoHS compliant, and is specified over the commercial and industrial temperature ranges.

Nexans To Supply Cable Link For Desalination Plant

Nexans is to supply a high-voltage underground cable link that will power an Australian seawater desalination plant, which is currently under construction in the state of Victoria. The contract covers the supply of around 260km of 220kV XLPE cable, made and tested as a 275kV cable, to Thiess Degremont, which is contracted to design and construct the EUR2.2bn (GBP2bn) Victorian Desalination Project to deliver up to 150 billion litres of water a year to Melbourne and regional communities.

The Victorian Desalination Project includes an 84km underground pipeline to connect the reverse-osmosis plant to a transfer main and then back to the reservoir. The electric power required by the new plant will be supplied by the 87km-long underground cables co-located with the pipeline, creating the world's longest high-voltage AC underground link operating at this power level.

An underground link was the preferred option for the project since it is both more energy efficient and secure than overhead lines and will also have the least impact on landowners, farmers and other people living and working in the area. Olex, a Nexans company serving the Australian and Asia-Pacific markets, will produce 225km of the underground cable locally at its Tottenham facility in Victoria.

It will be manufactured on equipment recently installed as part of a EUR12.5m upgrade that now enables Tottenham to produce XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) cables up to 500kV. The remaining length of cable will be supplied by the Nexans factory located in Charleroi, Belgium. The cable will be supplied progressively throughout 2010.

PCB-Mount Power Supply Has IP64 Protection

Globtek has introduced its GT-91114 series of PCB-mount power supplies with double-enforced insulation mechanical configurations.

It also complies with EMC Directives/CE and FCC Class B for ITE/medical applications. The power supplies are available with I/P and O/P lead wire options and Globtek said it can provide modified and custom designs. The GT-91114 series is offered with a five-year warranty.

Airsaver Unit Automatically Controls Air Supply

The Airsaver control unit developed by Beckair is a compressed air control device designed to switch off the air supply when it is not needed. Any waste of compressed air is eliminated, which lowers energy consumption and cost.

It has timed functions that combine to give 'supply on demand' operation. The air supply stops when a gap occurs in the containers on a conveyor or when a container stops in front of the sensor. The stop signal can be delayed to allow the last container to pass through a machine by means of an adjustable timer.

The Airsaver can be used with a variety of sensors. Startup is instantaneous once a moving object is sensed again. One Airsaver unit can operate up to three valves. The sensor unit operates from a 24V DC supply and a power supply can be provided with options for both 110V and 230V AC. Payback time is typically within two to three months of use. It can be mounted onto existing installations and is protected to IP65, so it can be used in most environments.

HRP-75 Power Supply Is Energy Star Compliant

Mean Well has introduced the HRP-75 series, a 75W miniature high-reliability AC/DC enclosed power supply that is now available from Ecopac Power. The HRP-75 series, along with the existing range of products HRPG-150, HRPG-300 and HRPG-600, allows Mean Well to offer various wattage options from 75W to 600W all with PFC function and energy-saving functions.

Featuring low no-load power consumption and an operating efficiency of 89 per cent, the Mean Well HRP-75 series reduces the size and increases the working efficiency in comparison to the existing range of 75W power supplies. With a five-year warranty, the HRP-75 series complies with Energy Star and operates at -30C to +70C. In addition, as the units comply with the 'no load power consumption of less than 0.5W', it allows designers to conform with the requirements of Energy Star and EuP for end-user systems and applications.

The Mean Well SPV series is supplied with worldwide safety certificates, UL, CUL, TUV, CE and CB.

Wago Enhances Power Supply Range

Wago Corporation has added a UPS controller (and batteries), as well as buffer and redundancy modules to the 787 Series advanced power supply line. The 787 Series modules are designed to minimise downtime by shielding complex automation systems and components from common disturbances (for example, voltage fluctuations, harmonic distortion and outages).

Encapsulated in a robust, DIN rail mount metal housing, every module includes three LEDs and at least one signal output status LED (varies per model). To ensure reliability, the modules utilise Cage Clamp spring pressure connection technology for fast, easy and maintenance-free terminations. Wago provides free configuration and monitoring software with the 787 Series UPS controller for custom configuration, diagnostics and monitoring.

The 787 Series UPS also has an LCD/keypad and an RS-232 interface. Under normal operation, the UPS controller charges the 787 Series battery. During an outage, the UPS controller engages the battery, preventing data loss. In addition to free software, the UPS controller operates at 95 per cent efficiency and has an operating temperature range of -10C to +60C.

During shorter power interruptions such as brownouts, the 787 Series buffer module protects data. The 787 Series redundancy modules safeguard two power supplies that are parallel connected to provide system redundancy or additional power.

Pressure Regulators Ensure Constant Gas Supply

Dome-loaded 797 LE-HD gas-controlled pressure regulators from Witt can provide an economic and safe solution to ensure gas cutting systems receive a constant gas supply, according to the manufacturer. The company said this system of gas regulation is more economical than using a full electronic control system. In one application the three inlet lines for oxygen and propane are supplied via Witt pressure regulators to optimise the automatic gas supply.

The gas control was regulated using proportional valves with changes in the gas pressure being adjusted by pressure changes, thereby controlling the cutting process. Witt pressure regulators can be used for numerous applications with a range of flow rates and gases. They are used as a primary pressure regulator, which can be installed in any orientation, in gas supply pipeline systems to ensure a consistent stable pressure up to a flow of 2300m3/h and are independent of any inlet pressure fluctuations in the gas supplies, including gas withdrawals.

They are also suitable for use in shipyards, chemical processing plants, offshore and diving vessels, glass making as well as steel making and foundry applications. Other features include integrated pilot pressure and pressure gauge connections as well as being able to centrally regulate several gas supplies to the same working pressure, while the compact design enables them be installed in confined spaces. The maximum pre-pressure for the 737LE-HD is 240 bar with a regulating range from 2-45 bar.

New Sola SCP-X Power Supply

Sola Hevi/Duty (SOLA HD) has introduced a new SCP-X field power supply that delivers 24Vdc power from an IP67-compliant package resistant to dust, water and other contaminants. Designed as a stand-alone unit that can be mounted directly to a machine, the SCP-X reduces end-user costs by eliminating the need for a separate cabinet and simplifying I/O device cabling.

The metal outer case withstands physical abuse while efficiently dissipating heat to deliver consistent power from -40 to +60°C. This compact, stand-alone unit can be mounted directly to the load eliminating the need for protective enclosures. This innovative mounting option drives down costs and provides machine builders and system integrators increased flexibility during the design process.

Direct machine mounting also decreases the amount of cabling between the power supply and consuming devices on the machine. Reduced cabling means lower capital costs and also allows for easier modification if system requirements change in the future.
