ABB adds DC-input version to MPR-Series power supply family

ABB has added a new DC-input version to its MPR series, creating additional options for customers looking for compact, high-density, hot-swappable power supplies. 

Both compact power supplies provide 700 W output power, providing additional input options for customers. ABB says that both the AC-input and DC-input power supplies feature 9 x 2.15 x 1.57in form factors, offering one of the most compact options available today, when it comes to power supply depth.

The MPR0712TE (AC-input version) and MPR0712DC (DC-input version) medium-power units are interchangeable, offering greater flexibility in end application designs that require both input options. The MPR rectifiers achieve power densities of 23 W/in³ and energy efficiencies of up to 94% at 50% load, achieving an 80 PLUS Platinum grade.

The MPR0712TE features a front 90-to-264-volt AC input, rear +12-volt DC output, and a 700 W output power. The MPR0712DC allows for a front -44 to -72-volt DC input and a rear +12-volt DC output with a 700-W output power. Both the AC and DC versions can operate over a wide temperature range of -5 C to 50 C.

The 9in-long, hot-swappable power supplies are well-suited for 12-volt distributed power architectures, mid-end and blade servers, networking equipment and attached storage, routers and switches, as well as advanced workstations. Both the AC and DC versions feature a PMBus-compliant I2C communications bus, allowing electrical engineers to integrate a range of monitoring and control capabilities into their system designs.

The power supplies are packed with additional features such as active current sharing, remote sensing ability, and a 12-volt standby output voltage. The MPR power supplies also feature built-in overvoltage, overcurrent and over temperature protections, helping to improve safety and reliability.To place an order, please click here and search for MPR0712TE (AC-input) or MPR0712DC (DC-input).
