AC/DC Desktop Wall Adapters: PW170KB1203B01 Application Field and Working Principle

AC/DC desktop wall adapters are very popular in industrial and commercial applications due to their convenient size and portability. The PW170KB1203B01 adapter is especially suitable for having a wide application field and rich working principles. Understanding its application field and working principle help users to make more appropriate decisions regarding the application.

Application Field of the PW170KB1203B01 Adapter

The PW170KB1203B01 adapter is a 12V/3A 3-pin-socket AC/DC adapter, featuring a low profile of only 19.5mm. It weighs only 150g, being very compact and lightweight. Therefore, it is suitable for various applications which require regulated and reliable power sources, such as industrial control systems, machine equipment, POS systems, etc. Furthermore, by mounting the adapter onto a desktop, it provides the desired safety protection as it complies with the CE & RoHS standards.

Working Principle of the PW170KB1203B01 Adapter

The working principle of the PW170KB1203B01 adapter can be broken down into four core components such as an AC/DC power supply, a rectifier, a filter and a regulator, each of which plays its own part in the power conversion and stabilization.

Firstly, the ac/dc power supply converts AC input into DC in order to fuel the entire system. The rectifier then converts the DC voltage into a pulsating DC. This is also known as rectification. The filtering component is what eliminates power interruptions and related irregularities. A filter consists of inductor and capacitor for this purpose. The regulator is the last part of the adapter, responsible for adjusting the current according to requirements.

In addition, the PW170KB1203B01 adapter is equipped with a consolidated temperature protection system, which protects the adapter from potential damages due to over temperature. In the event of an over temperature warning, the system will shut down automatically, potentially preventing damages to equipment.

Conclusion

The PW170KB1203B01 adapter offers stable power supply to a wide range of applications, being suitable for industrial control, machine equipment andPOS systems. With its low profile of only 19.5mm and light weight of 150g, the adapter is easy to install and use. Additionally, once installed, its consolidated temperature protection system provides additional safety measures to protect the system.
