Power Modules

Power-Module

Power Modules function as power supply or battery charger; 12, 24 or 48 volts; positive, negative floating ground. Wire in parallel to create systems from 500-6,000 watts. Optional quick connect wiring kit allows swap-out of modules without system shutdown. 115/230 VAC, 50-60 Hz input. 19″ or 23″ rackmount standard. Bulkhead/shelf mounting bracket optional.
