MBR Series - Martek's DC/DC Modules for Railway Applications Add More Power

Martek’s use of the latest manufacturing techniques at its UK facility allows the company to offer the MBRH high power modules at the same cost as the lower power MBR models.

Like earlier models, the MBRH units are fully encapsulated DC/DC converters available in single and dual output configurations with outputs available from 5V to 48V. All models meet applicable railway industry standards – RIA, EN50155 and EN50121.3.2 and, unlike competitive modules, the MBRH units require no additional external components for EMI filtering and 10ms EN51055 S2 hold up time.

A variety of mounting options, including PCB and DIN rail, can be made available but Martek believes that the bulkhead option with the use of zero halogen flying leads will prove the most popular.

Following an increase in customer interest, Martek Power UK will further extend the MBRH Series with the introduction of a 230VAC input version of the 25W module during Q2 this year.
