Information about the Enertex LED PowerSupply 160-12
The Enertex LED PowerSupply 160-12 is a professional-grade power solution housed in a compact 4 SU DIN-rail enclosure, engineered specifically to drive 12 V LED strips and lamps with maximum stability. One of its unique competitive advantages is the integrated 11-step rotary switch, which allows users to increase the output voltage in 0.25 V increments up to 14.25 V. This feature is crucial for compensating for voltage drops across long cable runs—up to 50 meters—ensuring that the LED light source receives the exact voltage required for optimal brightness. Furthermore, its oversized output capacitors make it the ideal choice for high-frequency PWM dimming, preventing audible noise and electrical instability during rapid load switching.
Beyond standard performance, this unit supports parallel operation of up to two units, allowing for a combined total output of 300 W with active, symmetrical load sharing within a 10% tolerance. Efficiency is at the core of its design, boasting a peak efficiency of 93% and a negligible standby power of only 0.1 W, significantly exceeding standard industrial requirements. Safety is prioritized through Overvoltage Category III compliance and a self-healing thermal protection system that automatically restarts the unit once environmental conditions stabilize. The sophisticated triple-LED diagnostic system provides real-time feedback on whether the unit is operating in constant voltage (CV) or constant current (CC) mode, offering unparalleled transparency for system maintenance and troubleshooting.
