Summary
The T series of converters are electrically isolated AC-DC
converters with an output power of up to 550 W. For higher
power requirements several units may be connected in
parallel.
The input of the T units is ideally adapted to the mains: Full
power factor correction, no inrush current, low RFI level and
high transient and surge immunity are key design features.
The T units behave similar to a resistive load.
The L-input provides a universal AC-input range from
85...255 V AC. It is the preferred type for 230 V mains,
whereas the U-input range is optimized for 110/120 V
mains. The output delivers an electrically isolated Safety
Extra Low Voltage (SELV) and is short-circuit and no-load
proof. Depending on the type, two output characteristics
are available, intended either for rectifier applications or for
battery charging purposes.
The latter types can be integrated into systems where the
output voltage is backed-up by batteries. The float charge
of the battery can be set by a cell voltage selector switch
according to the battery type used. Moreover these units
feature a temperature sensor input to improve the life ex-
pectancy of the battery.
The rectifier types suit for DC-bus applications at constant
voltage. As the output voltage is SELV, even electrically non
isolated switching regulators such as the Melcher PSR
types may be connected to the T output.
The T 1701 types are especially optimized to build distrib-
uted power systems together with the Melcher CQ-series
DC-DC converters as the signalling capabilities of both
families are matched. Distributed power systems have as
one advantage less power loss over load lines and fewer
regulation problems.
Melcher offers also backplanes for fast and simple set-up of
19" rack systems with T units (see chapter:
Back Planes).

Functional Description
AC-DC Converters >100 Watt
Rugged Environment
The T unit is a primary controlled AC-DC converter with a
constant switching frequency of 65.5 kHz. The power factor
corrected single step conversion of the line input voltage to
a low output voltage results in extremely high efficiency.
The input voltage is fed via input fuse, filter and rectifier to
the main transformer. The wideband input filter with small
input capacitance generates virtually no inrush current.
Transient suppressors protect the unit against high voltage
peaks and surges. An auxiliary converter generates an in-
ternal supply voltage for the primary control logic. The input
voltage waveform is sensed by the primary control logic to
allow power factor correction.
The main transformer is connected to a rectifier, large out-
put capacitors and an efficient output filter which ensures
low output ripple and spikes and provides the necessary
hold-up time. The output voltage is fed back to the primary
control logic via a signal transformer.
The inhibit signal and the T failure signal are transferred by
a second signal transformer (no opto-couplers!).
System Good and Output voltage OK are each indicated by
a green LED, inhibit and T System Failure by a red LED.
System Good and Power Down are available as open col-
lector signals at the connector. The threshold level of the
Power Down signal can be externally adjusted at the D set
input.
Test sockets at the front panel allow the measurement of
the output voltage.
The battery charger version provides additional features to
control the output voltage. To set it to different battery float
charge voltages, a 16-step selector switch (Z) is standard.
A control input for remote output voltage adjustment, by an
external temperature sensor is available at the multifunc-
tional inhibit/U
cr
control pin. A trim-potentiometer allows fine
adjustment of the output voltage.
