24V to 12V Converter, 12A

Manufacturer Part Number: SDC-15

The Samlex SDC-15 is a compact, high-efficiency power converter designed to supply regulated 12V-class power to compatible electrical and electronic equipment from a nominal 24V DC source. It accepts an input voltage of 20 to 35 VDC and provides a regulated output of 13.8 VDC, making it suitable for communications equipment, CB radios, vehicle electronics, 12V lighting, and other compatible DC-powered devices. Its switch-mode design supports efficient operation in demanding power applications.

Designed for dependable operation, the SDC-15 incorporates current limiting and protective circuitry to help safeguard connected equipment during overloads, short circuits, input overvoltage, and reverse input polarity conditions. Its compact chassis-mount construction and convection cooling support installation in suitable equipment spaces without requiring a dedicated cooling fan. The converter is non-isolated, with a common negative connection between input and output, so it is intended for compatible negative-ground systems rather than positive-ground installations.
