2. Flatpack2 Rectifier
The Flatpack2 rectifier module is a hot-pluggable, digitally controlled switch mode power
supply. The module is designed for battery charging and supplying of high quality DC
power to telecom equipment and similar applications.
The rectifier works in stand-alone mode or in parallel with other rectifiers, then
communicating via CAN bus with the system’s Smartpack controller and other connected
rectifiers. Flatpack2 DC power systems are implemented by mounting the rectifiers in 23”
or 19” power shelves (5 or 4 rectifiers across, respectively).
A wide range of features are implemented in the Flatpack2 rectifier, as mentioned below.
Key Features
Highest efficiency in minimum space
Resonant topology makes the module efficiency industry leading, and
contributes to the rectifier’s ultra compact dimensions.
Digital controllers
Primary and secondary controls are digitalized, enabling excellent
monitoring and control characteristics. Also, the number of
components has been reduced by 40% compared to previous rectifier
generation - for highly reliable, long life, trouble free DC power
systems.
Heat management
Front-to-back air flow, with chassis-integrated heat sinks, gives the
module the most suitable working environment and no limitations in
the scalability of the desired system solution.
CAN bus networked
The Flatpack2 rectifier is connected in a CAN bus network for
communication with the controller and other rectifiers.
Unique connection
A true plug-and-play connection system: reducing time-to-install
related cost.
Global approvals
Flatpack2 is CE marked, UL recognized and NEBS certified for world
wide installation.
Typical Applications
Wireless, fiber and fixed line communication
Today’s communications demand state-of-the-art, cost efficient and compact DC power
systems. Flatpack2 rectifiers deliver industry leading power density and superb reliability
at lowest lifetime cost.
Broadband and network access
Increasing network speed demands flexible and expandable DC power solutions. The
Flatpack2 rectifier is your key building block for future needs.
