FREMONT, Calif. (June 16, 2008) — Phihong, the global leader in low-cost power supplies, has developed a 30W universal 2-wire input adapter for medical equipment. Designated the PSAM30R series, the adapter works with interchangeable AC power plugs and is approved to UL and IEC 60601-1 medical safety standards as well as AS/NZS 4417 for Australia and New Zealand. The adapter, which also complies with California’s Appliance Efficiency Regulation and the federal government’s Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, is ideal for applications such as patient hoists, dental curing equipment, and portable dental and medical equipment. “Phihong has been approached by a number of OEMs that produce medical equipment to develop an adapter that would bring the cost and energy efficiencies that our products provide in other applications to the medical industry,” said Keith Hopwood, vice president of marketing for Phihong USA. The interchangeable AC power plugs are one of the key cost-saving features, as they allow OEMs to ship the same product anywhere in the world without requiring the cost of keeping inventory of different country-specific adapters to meet different current requirements. The double-insulated adapter features less than 100 uA leakage current and a no load power draw of less than 0.5W at 115 VAC and less than 0.75W at 230 VAC. The PSAM30R is available in a single +12VDC output and a single +24VDC output. It measures 3.94 inches x 2.48 inces x 1.41 inches and weighs 7.05 ounces, and is equipped with over-voltage, over-current and short circuit protection. Phihong has been active in promoting environmentally sound power products, adapting its product lines to meet RoHS, WEEE, EU Code of Conduct, China Energy Council, Canadian Standards, ENERGY STAR®, and Proposition 65. The PSAM30R is priced at $30.16 each for a quantity of 10 pieces. A detailed specification is available on the Web site at www.phihong.com. Phihong is one of the leading suppliers of power solutions, including power supplies, adapters and Power-over-Ethernet products, to networking OEMs. With global sales for 2008 expected to exceed $550 million, Phihong has engineering and manufacturing facilities in North and South America, Taiwan and mainland China.
