AC to 12V DC 8A Power Supply/Adapter for Motors & Actuators YHY
These 12V DC high-efficiency power supplies are made specifically for Gimson Robotics, with output settings optimised for running electric motor and actuator loads. Each is capable of supplying up to 8A at up-to 30% duty, 5A at 100% duty, as well as providing a peak of up-to 15A for very short periods.
The adapter is configured to handle the short spikes in current demanded of inductive loads (DC motors), which many other power supplies designed for resistive loads (LED drivers) cannot, whilst maintaining automatic overload (and short) protection.
Each adapter has a rectangular body, with a 1.1m output lead running from the adapter block to a male DC barrel connector (2.1 x 5.5mm). An IEC C14 connector in the side of the adapter matches up with the included C13 mains cable, with a 3-pin UK fused plug (3A fuse).
The power supply can accept an input of between 100V~240V AC, 50/60 HZ.

Unlike many similarly-sized power supplies this power supply is capable of powering medium sized electric motors (inductive loads) without cutting out when the motor starts-up. Additionally, this power supply offers far better efficiency than many others (Class VI standard), with a very low idle/standby power consumption.
The maximum duty cycle rating of the power supply is 30% at 8A. This is the maximum percentage of the time that the load should be active at 8A. If the average load current is kept much lower than 8A the duty cycle can be increased, up to 100% (continuous) duty for loads of LESS than 4A.
To give examples of the supply's capability, it may power up to two GLA750 or GLA200 actuators simultaneously, or two GLA800-N or GLA1500-N actuators. It can also power a single larger GLA3000-N model up to 60% of its rated load capacity.
This power supply is suitable for indoor use only. Every power supply is tested under load before sending. If you have any questions about this item, or suitability for your application, please contact us.
