The TPS100–320W Peak DR+ series is a DIN-rail power supply platform designed for industrial environments that demand efficiency, flexibility, and predictable behavior under peak loads.
With efficiency of up to 93%, a 170% power boost for 10 seconds, wide AC/DC input ranges, and fanless convection cooling, the series supports reliable operation in compact control cabinets. Adjustable output variants (12–15 VDC and 24–28 VDC) and integrated protection functions make the platform suitable for industrial automation, LED systems, and telecom/IT infrastructure.
Performance data, protection behavior, and approvals are defined on a model-specific basis according to the datasheet, ensuring transparent and engineering-grade system design.
Selecting the right AC-DC power supply is a key engineering decision that directly impacts system reliability, thermal performance, safety compliance, and long-term operating costs. While open-frame and enclosed power supplies serve the same fundamental purpose, their architectural differences make them suitable for very different application environments.
This article provides an application-driven comparison of open-frame and enclosed AC-DC power supplies, focusing on thermal concepts, mechanical protection, safety standards, and real-world use cases across industrial automation, lighting, medical technology, and communication systems.
The TPS030–130W Pro Series is a scalable DIN rail power supply platform delivering reliable 24 V DC output from 30 W to 130 W. Designed for industrial and building automation, LED lighting, and selected medical applications at system level, the series combines wide-range AC/DC input capability, convection-cooled operation, and IP30 double insulation. With EN 61347-2-13 certification and documented CE conformity, it supports standardized power concepts in modern control cabinets worldwide.
ESD trolleys play a key role in modern electronics manufacturing and service environments.
By providing mobile, grounded work surfaces, they support the safe handling and transport of electrostatic-sensitive components within an ESD Protected Area (EPA).
This guide explains how ESD trolleys are constructed, where they are typically used, and which criteria matter when selecting a suitable model for assembly, service, or internal logistics.

The 19-inch standard is one of the core foundations of modern electronic systems. This guide clearly explains how materials, finishes, cooling concepts and customisation options influence performance and reliability in industrial enclosures. A practical resource for engineers and integrators working with advanced electronic assemblies.
why inrush current remains one of the most underestimated reliability risks in small three-phase PV inverters and how a modern two-stage protection concept can dramatically improve system stability. We dive into the root causes of inrush events, explain the limitations of traditional methods, and highlight how the TPS-ICL-3P series provides a compact, high-reliability solution for space-constrained PV control cabinets. Real-world case studies illustrate measurable improvements in uptime, grid compliance, and overall system performance.
