Summary
Innovative design and attention to detail make the LW se-
ries the choice of many design engineers. These compact
power supplies feature a total volume of nearly three times
less than conventional switchers in the same power range.
MOSFET switching technology and component derating
further assure high reliability. The LW's flex power output
design easily accommodates changing design needs and
power requirements. Universal AC input is standard on all
15 and 30 W rated triple output models. Safety approvals
according to UL 1950, CSA 950 (EB 1420C) and IEC/EN
60950.
Key applications
Equipment for office automation, factory automation, pe-
ripheral, communication, security, display, test and meas-
urement, inspection and medical.

Explanation
1. Connect to a sine wave 47...63 Hz, 85...264 V AC, single phase.
2. Use a double or triple core cable for the input line.
3. Space the AC input line as far as possible from the DC output line.
Frame ground terminal Connect with low impedance to ground line of equipment on which the power supply is mounted.

Stabilized output of 12 or 15 V DC
Stabilized output of –12 or –15 V DC
G1: ground terminal for V1, G2: ground terminal for V2 and V3.
G1 and G2 are internally interconnected.
Proper Method of Operation
To achieve the proper output voltage from each of the three
outputs, the individual load currents must remain within the
minimum-maximum ratings. If the load current can drop be-
low the minimum value specified, add a pre-load.
Output Current Limitation
Each output provides its own built-in current limitation at
approx. 105% of the rated currents. In case of overload, the
circuit limits the current. After removal of overload, the cir-
cuit automatically resets.
Inrush Current
All models feature inrush current limitation circuits by
means of power thermistors. Switching the AC input on/off
repeatedly in rapid succession (less than 2 minutes waiting
time) should be avoided. An appropriate AC switch for each
model based on its specifications should be provided.
Series or Parallel Connection
The outputs cannot be operated in series or parallel con-
nection with other type of sources.

The relation between the maximum allowed output power

, the temperature
T
A
of the surrounding air and the
mounting method is given in the:
Installation Instruction.
The percentage rates apply if the AC-DC converter is lo-
cated in free, quasi-stationary air (convection cooling).
The following figure shows the allowed output power of an
AC-DC converter if mounting method A is used.
For
P

values see:
Type Survey and Key Data.
The ther-
mal conditions are influenced by input voltage, output cur-
rent, airflow and temperature of surrounding components
and surface.
Caution:
The installer must ensure that under all operat-
ing conditions
T

remains within the limits stated in the
table.

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
Electromagnetic Immunity
A metal oxide VDR together with an input fuse and an input
filter form an effective protection against high input tran-
sient voltages which typically occur in most installations,
but especially in battery driven mobile applications. The
VEW series has been successfully tested to the following
specifications:
