New 8:1 DC/DC converters from MEAN WELL

Expansion of our portfolio with the new 8:1 DC/DC converter series SCW/SCWN W8 and DCW/DCWN W8

With the SCW/SCWN W8 and DCW/DCWN W8 series, we are adding a range of new DC/DC converter modules from MEAN WELL to our portfolio.

They are widely used in measurement technology, power supply systems, telecommunications equipment, industrial automation, IoT applications and other areas.

Thanks to an 8:1 input voltage ratio and an ultra-wide input range from 9 to 75 VDC, a single model covers the common industrial supply voltages of 12 VDC, 24 VDC and 48 VDC. This eliminates the need for multiple input variants and simplifies model selection. The 8:1 input reduces the number of items in stock and offers greater design flexibility. Depending on the model, they are available with a single output (SCW/SCWN W8 series) or dual output (DCW/DCWN W-8 series) and cover the power classes 3 W, 6 W, 8 W, 12 W and 20 W. With 3 kVDC I/O isolation, they are ideal for demanding industrial applications. In addition, a pin-to-pin compatible DIP24 housing ensures a smooth transition from previous models, allowing direct replacement without redesigning the circuit board. Depending on the model, the compact devices measure 31.8 × 20.3 × 10.2 mm or 31.8 × 20.3 × 12.2 mm.

They operate with natural convection cooling in a temperature range from -40 to +95°C (depending on the model). They are EMC-compliant according to EN 55032 Class A without additional external components. No minimum load is required for stable operation. Integrated protection functions include short-circuit, overload, overvoltage and undervoltage protection. These DC/DC converters are EAC, CE and UKCA compliant and come with a three-year manufacturer's warranty.
