The HR-Series is complying with EN50155, EN50121 and all common national and international railway and safety standards and is packaged in a rugged cassette case for 19" rack or chassis mounting perfect for harsh, convection cooled environments the traditional MELCHER style.

The first models in this ground breaking series provide single 12V or 24V and dual ±12V output. Future models will expand the offering to cover 12V to 110Vdc in single and a few dual output configurations. Standard features include current share, 10ms hold-up time with internal capacitor, reverse polarity protection, inrush current limitation, over-voltage and programmable under-voltage lockout, remote on/off, adjustable output voltage, all in all fully self protecting and fully featured.
