Features
The Mean Well SD‑1000 Series is a high-performance 1000 W single-output DC-DC converter designed for industrial, telecommunications, and battery-backup applications. Available in models with input ranges of 19–72 VDC (SD‑1000L) and 72–144 VDC (SD‑1000H), it provides robust 2000 VAC galvanic isolation between input and output.
Housed in a compact 1U low-profile enclosure (41 mm), the SD‑1000 delivers high power density while maintaining reliability. It features short-circuit, overload, over-voltage, and over-temperature protection, as well as remote ON/OFF control, remote sense, and a DC OK signal for system monitoring. A 12 V / 0.25 A auxiliary output supports control circuits.
Forced-air cooling via a built-in fan ensures stable operation, while compliance with IEC 62368‑1 guarantees safety. With a –20 °C to +60 °C operating range, compact dimensions (295 × 127 × 41 mm), and a three-year warranty, the SD‑1000 Series delivers reliable, efficient DC-DC conversion for demanding environments.
