AmpFlow S-1000-24 high-current 1000W DC power supply for electric motors


AmpFlow motors and controllers can be used in industrial machinery or other stationary applications with our high-current power supplies. Connect these units to 110 or 220 Volts AC household power, and they will supply 5, 12, 24, 36, or 48 volts DC for use with our motors.


Our big 1000 Watt power supply can deliver enough current to get all our motors operating at or near their peak efficiency. If even higher power is required, the parallelable 1000W power supplies have special provisions enabling them to run in parallel with several other units, so any level of power can be achieved.


These power supplies work well in any application where AC line voltage needs to be converted to DC voltage. Other uses include LED lighting, HAM radio, battery charging, and replacing plug-in AC adapters when more power is required.


We offer eighteen different models ranging from 5V to 48V in three different power levels:

Features



Every power supply undergoes a full-load burn-in test, so no defective units leave the factory. The built-in fan turns on automatically when the unit gets warm, and the power supply shuts down temporarily if the temperature or voltage goes beyond the safe operating range.


AmpFlow high-efficiency power supplies have an output voltage adjustable by ±10%. And they include an EMI filter to minimize interference with radio signals and a soft-start circuit to reduce AC inrush current peaks.


Built-in current limiting protects the unit from overloads and short circuits. The current-limiting feature enables these power supplies to continue operating during the high-current start-up surges from DC motors. Most power supplies designed for use with LED lighting or other electronics will simply shut down when exposed to the high current demands of DC motors. AmpFlow power supplies are designed specifically for use with electric motors. Our power supplies will limit the current to the rated maximum, even when a larger load is demanded (such as when a DC motor starts up). Also, inductive loads (such as DC motors) can damage power supplies not designed for them.


If the motor keeps spinning after the power has been turned off, the reverse voltage it generates can damage the power supply. Using a diode will prevent this reverse voltage from reaching the power supply. Here are sketches for diode placement for Brushed and Brushless motors. In most cases, these diodes are not required, but they are recommended for applications with high inertia.


If a higher current is required, our parallelable SCN-1000 power supplies can be wired together in parallel. Here is a schematic showing the required connections for Parallel Operation. Operating the other power supplies in parallel is not recommended.


If a higher voltage is required, all of our power supplies can be connected in series, with diodes added to protect them if both units do not turn on simultaneously or if the load becomes short-circuited. The diodes will also protect the power supplies from any reverse voltage applied. Here is a sketch showing the diode placement for Series Operation. The diodes must have a current rating at least as high as the power supply's current rating. All power supplies are in stock and ready to ship.


These power supplies meet all the following safety and EMC standards:
