The International Series BVA
The BVA series is the premium grade, open frame line of linear DC pow-
er supplies. Designed to operate over a wide range of AC power sources
found worldwide, the BVA series is especially suited for OEM applica-
tions where cost is a significant factor. The field selectable universal
input (100/117/220/230-240VAC) reduces your inventory cost by allowing
to use just one standard model regardless of destination.
Value Added Services
PowerVolt offers a wide variety of value added services and design fea-
tures to meet your application requirements. The first and foremost ser-
vice we offer is our flexibility to design custom units for your application.
Other features include , but are not limited to, terminal blocks, mounting
spacers, fuse and fuse holders, line cords etc. Please contact your local
factory representative, distributor or factory direct for quotations.
Remote Sensing: Standard on all outputs above 30 watts. Remote
sense will compensate for a cable drop of 0.25V. Protected against open
or shorted sense leads. Twisted pair sense leads are recommended.
Efficiency: 5V units: 45%; 12 and 15V units: 55%; 24V and higher
units: 60%
Specifications
AC Input: Field selectable taps for 100/11/7/220/230-240 VAC ±10%;
47-63Hz. See chassis ID label for jumper and line fusing requirements.
For 50Hz operation derate output by 10%
Operating Temperature: 0°C to 50°C full rated load, derate linearly to
40% at 70°C. See derating chart.
DC Output: See selection guide for voltage/current ratings. The output
is floating; either positive or negative terminal can be grounded. Output
adjustment range is ±10%, expect variable 10-18V outputs.
Line Regulation: ±0.05% for 10% line change
Storage Temperature: -55°C to +85°C
Vibration: Per MIL-STD-810B, Method 514, Procedure I, Curve AB (to
50 Hz) Shock: Per MIL-STD-810B, Method 516, Procedure V
Safety Standards: UL 60950-1, Second Edition CSA C22.2 No.
Load Regulation: ± 0.05% for 50% load change
Thermal Regulation: ±0.02% per C maximum, ±0.005% per C typical
Output Ripple: 2mV RMS maximum, 3mV P-P
60950
CE Marked CB Scheme
Finish: Clear aluminum chassis. Also serves as heat sink.
Dynamic Response: 30 microseconds for 50% load change
Stability: ±0.03% for 24 hour period after 1 hour warm up
Short Circuit and Overload Protection: Foldback current limiting, set at
120% of nominal
Mounting: Units can be mounted on several surfaces. Mounting holes
will accept press fit #6-32 threaded fasteners. For efficient cooling, allow
unrestricted air flow. Forced air cooling may be recommended.
Overvoltage Protection: Crowbar overvoltage protection is standard on
all 5VDC main outputs and is factory set at 6.2V±0.4V (fixed). Optional
universal OVP module adjustable from 4.5 to 36V is available for other
models.
