ABSOPULSE Electronics’ CSI 500-2XD3-IP66 series was developed for the transportation, mining, marine, military, telecom, oil and gas applications that require a rugged, waterproof, dust-proof, sand-proof, fire and explosion proof* pure sine wave output solution.
The CSI 500-2XD3-IP66 high frequency PWM inverters deliver 500VA with pure sine wave output voltage. They offer input range options of 24Vdc (21-29V range), 48Vdc (42-56V), 110Vdc (90-130V), 125Vdc (106-145V) or custom and run 115V or 230V AC equipment. Efficiency is typically 80% at full load. Filtering on the input and output contributes to low output ripple and noise; high frequency ripple is less than 500mVrms. Electronic protection includes 2250Vdc input-output isolation, inrush current limiting and reverse polarity protection. The units comply with EN60950-1 and corresponding UL 458 and CSA international safety standards. They are rated for operation over a -25°C to +55°C temperature range for full specification; wider temperature ranges are available on request.
The CSI 500-2XD3-IP66 inverters are packaged in two IP66 rated diecast aluminum enclosures with sealed circular connectors, mounted on a base plate. The internal inverter modules are fully ruggedized and the boards are conformal coated for immunity to high levels of shock, vibration and humidity. The converters comply with certain fire resistance standards and with ATEX explosion* protection regulations. In addition, we employ a unique solution that inhibits the development of pressure differentials that would otherwise occur when the temperature inside and/or outside the sealed IP-rated enclosure changes frequently. When pressure inside the enclosure is equalized, strain on connectors is minimized, ensuring the reliability of the environmental seal.
