Powerline bespoke power supplies
Powerline also offer a design and manufacturing service where the application solution is not an off the shelf product. Powerline will either adapt a specialist standard product or design or build a full custom solution.
YEG Powerline can provide cost-effective solutions for almost any electrical and mechanical configuration requirement, with output power ranging from a few watts to well over 30kW.
The benefits of customizing a standard power supply are shorter development times and minimal safety approval issues This route is good for prototypes or small to medium volume production. As volumes increase further, the modification can be incorporated at one of our manufacturing partners.
Examples of such semi customisation are:
• Converting open frame to enclosed PSU
• Enclosing a standard PSU, adding Filter switch, etc..
• Ruggedisation
• Adjusting output voltage
• Meeting needs for unusual multiple output voltage combinations
• Modify output loom or change connector
• Converting to DIN rail mounting
• Converting to 19" or 23" Rack mounting
• Paralleling multiple power supplies together
• Fan noise reduction on power supplies

EMC and Safety Compliance Support
We are available to offer assistance with EMC compliance. We carry a wide range of filter samples and use of our EMC pre-compliance chamber. The chamber can be used for testing emissions, static discharge susceptibility, fast transient susceptibility and measurement of power factor. This valuable resource is made available on a free-of-charge basis to our customers along with full engineering support and up-to-date advice on EMC, safety related issues and legislation.
