Description
The H-family of AC-DC converters represents a broad and
flexible range of power supplies for use in advanced elec-
tronic systems. Features include high efficiency, reliability
and low output voltage noise.
The converter inputs are protected against surges and tran-
sients occuring at the source lines. An input over- and
undervoltage cut-out circuitry disables the outputs if the in-
put voltage is outside the specified range. The modules in-
clude an inrush current limitation preventing circuit break-
ers and fuses from being damaged at switch-on.
All outputs are open- and short-circuit proof and are pro-
tected against overvoltages by means of built-in suppressor
diodes. The outputs can be inhibited by a logic signal ap-
plied to the connector pin 2(i). If the inhibit function is not
used pin 2 should be connected with pin 23 to enable the
outputs.
LED indicators display the status of the converter and allow
visual monitoring of the system at any time.
Full input to output, input to case, output to case and output
to output isolation is provided. The modules are designed
and built according to the international safety standard
IEC 950 and have been approved by the safety agencies
LGA (Germany) and UL (USA). The UL Mark for Canada
has been officially recognized be regulatory authorities in
provinces across Canada.
The case design allows operation at nominal load up to
50°C in a free air ambient temperature. If forced cooling is
provided, the ambient temperature may exceed 50
°C
but
the case temperature should remain below 80°C under all
conditions.
A temperature sensor generates an inhibit signal which
disables the outputs if the case temperature
T
C
exceeds the
limit. The outputs are automatically re-enabled when the
temperature drops below the limit.
Various options are available to adapt the converters to in-
dividual applications.
The modules may either be plugged into 19 inch rack sys-
tems according to DIN 41494, or be chassis mounted.
Case: aluminium, black finish, self cooling.

Safety and Installation Instructions
Safety
If the output circuit of an AC-DC converter is operator-ac-
cessible according to the IEC 950 related safety standards,
it shall be an SELV circuit (Safety Extra Low Voltage circuit,
i.e. a circuit, separated from mains by at least basic insula-
tion, that is so designed and protected such that under nor-
mal and single fault conditions, the voltage between any
two conductors and between any conductor and earth does
not exceed 60 V DC).
In the following section an interpretation is provided of the
IEC 950 safety standard with respect to the safety status of
the output circuit. However, it is the sole responsibility of the
installer or user to assure the compliance with the relevant
and applicable safety standards:
If the AC-DC converter is installed according to the relevant
safety regulations its outputs are considered to be SELV
circuits up to a nominal output voltage of 36 V.
For safety reasons, the modules must be wired via the
female connector H11 (according to DIN 41612 see sec-
tion "Accessories") in order to meet national and interna-
tional safety requirements!
The connector protective earthing pin is leading. During the
production process, all transformers and each of the fully
assembled modules are individually tested for electric
strength and earth continuity (see "Supplementary Data").
All electric strength tests are performed as factory tests.
Installation Instruction
Installation of the power supply must strictly follow the na-
tional safety regulations. To observe the safety require-
ments according to EN 60950/IEC 950, the module shall be
connected via the female connector type H11 see section
"Accessories". Other installation methods may not meet the
safety requirements. The modules do not incorporate any
fuse. At least one external fuse, installed in the wiring to the
input is essential! See "Fuse types".
Whenever the inhibit function is not required, pin 2 (i)
should be connected to pin 23 to enable the output(s).
Important Advice
Electric strength tests should not be repeated in the field. Improper test methods, for example overshooting or oscillating
test voltages, voltage slopes exceeding 1 kV/µs, internal Y-capacitors not carefully discharged, etc. can cause severe
damage to switching devices and ICs. Melcher AG will not honour any guarantee/warranty claims resulting from high
voltage field tests.

Functional Description
The input voltage is fed via an input filter, an inrush current
limiter and a bridge rectifier to the input capacitor. This ca-
pacitor sources a single transistor forward converter. Each
output is powered by a separate secondary winding of the
main transformer. The resultant voltages are rectified and
their ripples smoothed by a power choke. The control logic
senses the main output voltage
U
o1
and generates, with re-
spect to the maximum admissible output currents, the con-
trol signal for the primary switching transistor. This signal is
fed back via a coupling transformer.
The auxiliary outputs
U
o2
and
U
o3
are unregulated. Each
auxiliary output's current is sensed and transferred to the
main control circuit using a current transformer. If one of the
outputs is driven into current limit, the other outputs will re-
duce their output voltages as well because all output cur-
rents are controlled by the same control circuit.
