New ASB160 Series 160 W, Full-Brick AC/DC Power Supplies from XP Power Reduce Failure Rates Using Effective Heat Exhaustion

March 31, 2023

ASB160 FROM XP Power
XP Power’s ASB160 power supplies have a baseplate-cooled design that reduces failure rates through effective heat exhaustion

XP Power’s ASB160 series low-profile, full-brick, baseplate-cooled AC/DC power supplies require no external components. The series includes a built-in EMC filter, AC fuse, and bulk storage capacitor, providing a complete AC/DC power solution ready for installation into industrial and semiconductor manufacturing applications.

The series reduces failure rates through effective heat exhaustion in a baseplate-cooled design. Their sealed enclosure makes them suitable for use in ATEX approved equipment. The ASB160 offers high efficiency, minimizes waste heat and heat sinking requirements, and operates from -40°C to +90°C on the module baseplate.
