This non-isolated DC\/DC buck converter operates across an input voltage range of 16&ndash;70&nbsp;VDC and supplies 13.8&nbsp;V loads with up to 20&nbsp;A or 275&nbsp;W. Efficiency reaches up to 95%.<\/p>\n<h3>Customised for E-Mobility and Marine Environments<\/h3>\n<p>This version was developed for an E-Mobility application with limited installation space, elevated thermal requirements and marine environmental conditions. Within the specified operating and mounting conditions, the converter provides its rated output power without power derating.<\/p>\n<p>The 162E1-13.8-ON is therefore particularly suitable for compact vehicle installations requiring a reliable 13.8&nbsp;V supply from a 48&nbsp;V battery system.<\/p>\n<h3>Tinned Connection Leads to Customer Specification<\/h3>\n<p>Instead of the blade terminals used on the standard product, the 162E1-13.8-ON is supplied with preassembled, 450&nbsp;mm connection leads. Compared with bare copper conductors, the tinned copper conductors provide improved resistance to oxidation and corrosion. This is particularly beneficial in applications where moisture, condensation or salt-laden air may occur.<\/p>\n<p>The direct cable connection also reduces the number of exposed connection points on the device. It simplifies installation and allows the DC\/DC converter to be integrated directly into the customer-specific wiring harness.<\/p>\n<h3>High Power Density Without Derating<\/h3>\n<p>With dimensions of only 90&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;90&nbsp;&times;&nbsp;26&nbsp;mm, the converter delivers up to 275&nbsp;W of output power. Its efficiency of up to 95% limits power losses, while the fanless design operates without moving wear components and is well suited to durable mobile applications.<\/p>\n<p>Even in thermally demanding installations, the DC\/DC converter operates without power derating within its specified operating conditions. The thermal mounting requirements stated in the datasheet must be observed to ensure full output power.<\/p>\n<h3>Fully Potted for Demanding Operating Conditions<\/h3>\n<p>The electronics are fully encapsulated in polyurethane. The PU potting protects the electronic components against moisture, vibration, shock and climatic influences. Combined with the tinned connection leads, this creates a robust device configuration for E-Mobility and marine applications.<\/p>\n<h3>Reliable Supply from 48 V Battery Systems<\/h3>\n<p>The 162E1-13.8-ON is suitable for supplying sensors, control units, cameras, communication systems and other 12&nbsp;V or 13.8&nbsp;V onboard electronics. CC\/CV control, integrated EMI filters, continuous open-circuit and short-circuit protection, and support for parallel operation enable reliable use in professional vehicle and battery systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 162E1-13.8-ON is a customer-specific version of the 162E-13.8-ON featuring 450 mm tinned connection leads.
