The HIS120 is a high voltage isolated DC/DC convertor developed for high power gate drivers and similar applications in oil and gas, mining, railway track-side and industrial environments.

Absopulse Electronics' HIS120 is a high voltage isolated DC/DC convertor developed for high power gate drivers and similar applications in oil and gas, mining, railway track-side and industrial environments.

This 120W, dual-output unit provides 20V DC at 3A from each output, with a higher number of outputs available on custom versions.

It accepts a 48V Dc input (44 to 56V DC range).

The HIS120 is designed for corona (partial discharge) extinction voltages of 12kV RMS (minimum) and it is hi-pot tested for isolation levels up to 20kV RMS.

The typical operating voltage potential between primary and secondary is 6.5-10kV RMS, with the same isolation provided between the outputs.

Both outputs are highly regulated and have current limiting and short circuit protection.

Isolation design features include encapsulating the output regulators in two separate insulation chambers, and the use of transformers engineered with Absopulse's field-proven proprietary technology.

This convertor is convection cooled and rated for operation over 0 to 50C without derating.

It is filtered to meet EN55022 Class A EMI as a minimum.

The open-frame package measures 4 x 12 x 2.75in and weighs 1.1kg.

The HIS120 dual-output version is priced at US $330 for quantities of 100.
