■ Description
RSD-30 is a 30W enclosed type DC-DC reliable railway converter. This series is compliant with EN50155/
IEC60571 railway standard, constituting three types of models with 4:1 wide but different input ranges
9~36V/18~72V/40~160V, suitable for railway and all kinds of transportation systems exploiting the frequently
used standard input voltages such as 12V, 24V, 36V, 48V, 72V, 96V and 110V. Various output voltages,
3.3V, 5V, 12V and 24V are available for selection.
This series has the capability of working under -40~+70℃, low ripple and noise, supreme EMC characteristics,
4KVDC I/P-OP, low enclosure profile 25mm and an interior with semi-potted silicone. It does not only well
fits the in-car systems or the facilities by rails for railway, trams and buses but also can be used in the harsh
environment with high vibration, high dust, extremely low or high temperature, etc.

Input Reverse Polarity Protection

There is a MOSFET connected in series to the negative input line. If the input polarity is connected reversely, the MOSFET opens and there
will be no output to protect the unit.

Input Range and Transient Ability

The series has a wide range input capability. With ±40% of rated input voltage, it can withstand that for 1 second.

Input Under-Voltage Protection

If input voltage drops below Vimin, the internal control IC shuts down and there is no output voltage. It recovers automatically when input
voltage reaches above Vimin, please refer to the cruve below.

Parallel and Series Connection

A.Operation in Parallel
Since RSD-30 series don't have built-in parallel circuit, it can only use external circuits to achieve the redundant operation but not increase the current rating.
1.Add a diode at the positive-output of each power supply (as shown as below), the current rating of the diode should be larger than the maximum output current rating
and attached to a suitable heat sink. This is only for redundant use (increase the reliability of the system) and users have to check suitability of the circuit by themselves.

PS2 D2

2.When using S.P.S. in parallel connection, the leakage current will increase at the same time. This could pose as a shock hazard for the user. So please contact the
supplier if you have this kind of application.
B.Operation in Series
RSD-30 can be operated in series. Here are the methods of doing it:
1.Positive and negative terminals are connected as shown as below. According to the connection, you can get the positive and negative output voltages for your loads.

2.Increase the output voltage (current does not change). Because RSD-30 series have no reverse blocking diode in the unit, you should add an external blocking diode
to prevent the damage of every unit while starting up. The voltage rating of the external diode should be larger than V1+V2 (as shown as below).

Overload Protection
If the output draw up to 105~135% of its output power rating, the converter will go into overload protection which is constant current mode. After the faulty condition
is removed, it will recover automatically. Please refer to the diagram below for the detail operation characteristic. Please note that it's not suitable to operate within
the overload region continuously, or it may cause to over temperature and reduce the life of the power supply unit or even damage it.

Over Voltage Protection

The converter shuts off to protect itself when the output voltage drawn exceeds 115~140% of its output rating. It must be repowered on to recover.

LED Indicator
Equipped with a built-in LED indicator, the converter provides an easy way for users to check its condition through the LED indicator.
Green : normal operation; No signal: no power or failure.

Derating Curve
a.Single unit operation
If the unit has no iron plate mounted on its bottom, the maximum ambient temperature for the unit will be 55℃ as operating under full load condition. It requires
de-rating output current when ambient temperature is between 55~70℃, please refer to the de-rating curve as below.

and share the same derating curve.

b.Operate with additional iron plate

If it is necessary to fulfil the requirements of EN50155 TX level that operate the unit fully-loaded at 70℃, RSD-30 series must be installed onto an iron plate on
the bottom. The size of the suggested iron plate is shown as below. In order for optimal thermal performance, the iron plate must have an even & smooth surface
