Summary
The KP series is an extension of the K series of AC-DC con-
verters with an increased output power level of up to 280 W
depending on the operating ambient temperature require-
ments. The KP converters are optimized for use in
230 V AC mains applications and feature high efficiency,
high reliability, low output voltage noise and excellent dy-
namic response to load/line changes.
The converter inputs are protected against surges and tran-
sients occuring at the source lines. An input over- and
undervoltage lock-out curcuitry disables the outputs if the
input voltage is outside the specified range. The LKP types
include an inrush current limitation preventing circuit break-
ers and fuses from being damaged at switch-on.
The outputs are open- and short-circuit proof and are pro-
tected against overvoltages by means of a built-in suppres-
sor diode. The outputs can be inhibited by a logic signal
applied to the connector pin 18 (i). If the inhibit function is
not used pin 18 must be connected with pin 14 to enable
the outputs (fail safe).
LED indicators display the status of the converter and allow
visual monitoring of the system at any time.

Full input to output, input to case, output to case and output
to output isolation is provided. The modules are designed
and built according to the international safety standards
IEC/EN 60950.
The case design allows operation up to an operating ambi-
ent temperature of 71°C with reduced output power. De-
pending on the ambient temperature requirements, how-
ever, the output power can be up to 280 W.
An internal temperature sensor generates an inhibit signal
which disables the outputs if the case temperature
T
C
ex-
ceeds the specified limit. The outputs are automatically re-
enabled when the temperature drops below the limit.
Various options are available to adapt the converters to in-
dividual applications. Especially for battery charger applica-
tions an external temperature sensor has been designed to
allow for temperature compensated battery charging.
The modules may either be plugged into 19" rack systems
according to DIN 41494 or be chassis mounted.

Functional Description
AC-DC Converters
KP Series
The input voltage is fed via an input fuse, an input filter, a
rectifier and an inrush current limiter to a single transistor
boost converter. This converter provides a sinusoidal in-
put current (IEC/EN 61000-3-2, class D equipment) and
sources a capacitor with a voltage of 360-370 VDC. This
capacitor sources a single transistor forward converter.
Each output is powered by a separate secondary winding
on the main transformer. The resultant voltages are recti-
fied and their ripples smoothed by a power choke and an
output filter. The control logic senses the main output volt-
age
U
o1
and generates, with respect to the maximum ad-
missible output currents, the control signal for the primary
switching transistor.
The second output is controlled by the main output but has
independent current limiting. If the main output is driven into
current limitation, the second output voltage will fall as well
and vice versa.

Initial switch-on cycle. Subsequent switch-on/off cycles increase the inrush current peak value.
AC frequency range 47...63 Hz.
Input Fuse
A fuse mounted inside the converter protects the module
against severe defects.
Inrush Current Limitation
The modules of the versions -5, -6, -7 incorporate an NTC
resistor in the input circuitry which - at initial turn on - re-
duces the peak inrush current value by a factor of 5...10 to
protect connectors and switching devices from damage.
Subsequent switch-on cycles within short periods will
cause an increase of the peak inrush current value due to
the warming-up of the NTC resistor. See also:
E option.

Input Under-/Overvoltage Lock-out
If the input voltage remains below approx. 110 V AC or ex-
ceeds approx. 280 V AC an internally generated inhibit sig-
nal disables the output(s). When checking this function the
absolute maximum input voltage rating
U
i abs
should be
considered! Between
U
i min
and the undervoltage lock-out
level the output voltage may be below the value defined in
table:

(see:
Technical Information: Measuring
and Testing).
Input Transient Protection
A VDR together with the input fuse and a symmetrical input
filter form an effective protection against high input tran-
sient voltages.
The inrush current peak value (initial switch-on cycle) can
be determined by following calculation:
