Description
The PSC family of positive swiching regulators is designed
as power supply modules for electronic systems. Their ma-
jor advantages include a high level of efficiency that re-
mains virtually constant over the entire input range, high
reliability, low ripple and excellent dynamic response.
Modules with input up to 80 V are specially designed for
secondary switched and battery driven applications.
Case C03: Aluminium, black finish and self cooling.
External input circuitry
An external capacitor (see "Application Notes") is required
in rectifier mode and in DC operation mode only, if the sum
of the lengths of the two input lines between source and in-
put (without option L) is greater than approx. 5 m. For long
connection lines the use of option L is recommended in or-
der to reduce superimposed interference voltages or cur-
rents and to prevent oscillation.

Safety and Installation Instructions
Safety
If the output circuit of a switching regulator is operator-ac-
cessible according to the IEC 950 related safety standards,
it shall be an SELV circuit (Safety Extra Low Voltage circuit,
i.e. a circuit, separated from mains by at least basic insula-
tion, that is so designed and protected that under normal
and single fault conditions, the voltage between any two
conductors and between any conductor and earth does not
exceed 60 V DC).
In the following section an interpretation is provided of the
IEC 950 safety standard with respect to the safety status of
the output circuit. However, it is the sole responsibility of the
installer or user to assure the compliance with the relevant
and applicable safety standards.
If the following table is observed, the output of any switch-
ing regulator is considered to be an SELV circuit up to a
nominal output voltage of 36 V.
Note:
Check for hazardous voltages before altering
any connections. Do not open the module. The input
and the output circuitry are not separated, i.e. the nega-
tive path is internally interconnected!

The installer shall provide an approved fuse (slow blow type with lowest rating suitable for the application, max. 12.5 A) in the positive
or negative input conductor directly at the input of the switching regulator. For UL's purpose, the fuse needs to be UL-listed. If option
C is fitted, a suitable fuse is built-in.
2
Has to be insulated from earth by double or reinforced insulation according to the relevant safety standard, based on the maximum in-
put voltage of the switching regulator.

The earth connection has to be provided by the installer according to the relevant safety standards, e.g. IEC 950.

Standards and Approvals
Switching Regulators, PCB & Chassis
PSC-Family
All Melcher power supplies are subject to manufacturing
surveillance in accordance with ISO 9001 standards.
All units are UL recognized as per UL 1950, UL 1012 and
CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 234-M90.
Cleaning Agents
In order to avoid possible damage, any penetration of
cleaning fluids is to be prevented, since the power supplies
are not hermetically sealed.
Protection Degree
The protection degree is defined by IP 20.
Standard Features
i Inhibit
Note:
With open i-input, output is enabled (U
o
= on)
The inhibit input allows the switching regulators to be disa-
bled via a control signal. In systems with several units, this
feature can be used, for example, to control the activation
sequence of the regulators by a logic signal (TTL, C-MOS,
etc.).
An output voltage overshoot will not occur when the units
are switched on or off.
