Description
The RPR40 series DC/DC converters are designed for railway rolling stock applications.
Besides covering all the input voltages from 24VDC up to 110VDC, the converters have a
very wide operating temperature range of -45°C to +85°C. Although the case size is very
compact, the converter contains a built-in EMI filter, so no active external filter components
are required. The RPR40 is available in three case styles: a low profile flat top case, a ribbed
case with a built-in heatsink and the baseplate case for high vibration or bulkhead-mounting
applications. They are EN 50155 and EN 50121-3-2 compliant.

EN50155 Class S2 Compliance
To meet the requirements of EN50155 Class S2 (disconnection of supply for 10ms), capacitor C1 is required. The value of C1 can be calculated from the
following formula:
C1 + 330μF = (2 x W x t)/(Eff. x (Un² - Umin²)
where W = output power, t = disconnect time, Eff = Converter efficiency, Un = nominal input voltage and Umin = the UVL voltage of the converter
e.g., for the RPR40-2405S: C1 = (2 x 40 x 0.01)/(0.88 x (24² - 8.5²) = 1804µF - 330µF = 1474µF minimum.
Any overcurrent protective devices fitted must not react faster than 0.01s and be capable of supplying the initial inrush current without tripping.
Suggested component values:
Un = 24V: C1 = 1804µF - 330µF = 750µF/50V + 750µF/50V
Un = 48V: C1 = 455µF - 330mF = 150µF/100V
Un = 72V: C1 not required
Un = 96V: C1 not required
Un = 110V: C1 not required

RPR40
EN50155 Class C2 Compliance
To meet the requirements of EN50155 Class C2 (disconnection of supply for 30ms), capacitor C1 needs to be increased:
Suggested component values:
Inrush Current (after 10ms)
Un = 24V: C1 = 5413µF - 330µF = 2200µF/50V + 2200µF/50V + 1000µF/50V
<4.2A
Un = 48V: C1= 1365µF - 330µF = 680µF/50V + 680µF/50V
<0.2A
Un = 72V: C1 = 559µF - 330µF = 330µF/200V
<0.1A
Un = 96V: C1 = 344µF - 330µF = 22µF/200V
<0.1A
Un = 110V: C1 not required
<0.1A
Notes :
1. The ON/OFF pin voltage is referenced to negative input. The pin is pulled high internally.
ON/OFF control is standard with positive logic: e.g. RPR40-2405S, RPR40-4805D-B.
Add “1” before the suffix for negative logic: e.g. RPR40-2405S-1, RPR40-11005D-1B.
Positive logic: 0= OFF, 1 = ON. The converter will be ON if the CTRL is left open.
Negative logic: 1 = OFF, 0 = ON. The converter will be OFF if the CTRL is left open..
2. To ensure a good all-round electrical contact, the baseplate is pressed firmly into place within the aluminium housing.The hydraulic press can leave
tooling marks and deformations to both the housing and baseplate. The case is anodised aluminium, so there will be natural variations in the case
colour and the aluminium is not scratch resistant. Any resultant marks, scratches and colour varations are cosmetic only and do not affect the
operation or performance of the converters.
3. The converter is supplied with a protective adhesive tape to keep the top surface clean. The tape is heat resistant and the converter can be
soldered into place without removing the tape. The tape should be removed just before final installation.
