The 500W FIEPOS power supply from PULS Power, is an ideal solution for decentralised electrical and electronic systems located trackside on railway networks. Trackside systems are typically mounted in


“wardrobe” like enclosures called location cabinets, which can be open at the underside making them prone to condensation on the inside. Electronics systems mounted within location


cabinets must be protected from the ingress of water and dust to ensure reliable long-term operation. This includes the power supply which is


frequently located in the same ruggedised enclosure as other system components. Weatherproof enclosures are bulky and expensive, each adding extra cost and complexity to the end system. The PULS FIEPOS is a new type of power supply


that was developed specifically for this kind of environment. A decentralised power supply, requiring no additional enclosure offering protection to class IP54, IP65 or IP67, is easy to install and flexible enough to meet the diverse requirements of modular systems.


Seaward’s all-in-one solution for solar PV commissioning tests and I-V curve analysis


The fast and effective performance, safety and diagnostic testing of solar PV installations is provided by the lightweight and compact PV200/210 test instrument, available from Seaward. Combining accurate I-V curve analysis with essential electrical testing and


using a push button operation, the battery-operated multi-function PV200/210 undertakes all the electrical commissioning tests required by IEC 62446. These include open circuit voltage, short circuit current, maximum power point voltage, current and power, and insulation resistance. Alongside the electrical tests, the instrument can also perform I-V curve


measurements in accordance with IEC 61829 to determine if the measured curve deviates from the expected profile, highlighting the need for any further analysis or fault finding. The fill factor of PV systems can also be assessed.
