3W and 5W ac-dc PSUs mount in many ways, including DIN rail

CUI has announced a couple of encapsulated ac-dc PSUs with multiple mounting options – 3W and 5W models. The single output PSK‑S3 types are housed in packges down to 37 x 24.5 x 18mm, and PSK‑S5B is the other type. PSK‑S3‑L and PSK‑S5B‑L have wire leads PSK‑S3‑T and PSK‑S5B‑T chassis mount PSK‑S3‑DIN and PSK‑S5B‑DIN mount ...

20 – 40A DIN rail redundancy module shares load between two PSUs

TDK has introduced the DRM40 series of DIN rail mount redundancy modules. Two 10V to 30Vdc inputs are rated at 20A each and the output at 40A. 150% peak load is available for four seconds for capacitive and inductive loading, and the internal (reverse current protection) mosfets have a 200mV drop, reducing power losses in ...

Imec simulation tool calculates energy yield of bifacial PV systems

Imec and EnergyVille have  a new simulation framework that can accurately calculate the energy yield of bifacial PV systems (also capturing reflected light from the ground). The high precision of the new simulation framework compared to existing approaches comes from the fact that the framework not only computes the energy yield of the individual cells ...
