The DDR-60 Series includes two input voltage versions: DDR-60G models with 9–36Vdc input and DDR-60L models with 18–75Vdc input. With regulated output options of 5V, 12V, 15V and 24V, the series supports flexible DC voltage conversion for industrial control circuits, electronic equipment, battery-powered systems and distributed DC power architectures.

The DDR-60 Series provides adjustable output voltage, input under-voltage lockout, MOSFET-based input reverse polarity protection and reinforced 4KVdc I/O isolation. These functions help improve system reliability when the converter is installed in industrial control cabinets, automation equipment and compact DC power systems.

Designed as a compact 60W isolated DIN rail DC-DC converter, the DDR-60 Series focuses on reliable DC voltage conversion, electrical isolation improvement, cable voltage drop compensation and stable operation where DIN rail installation space is limited.

Adjustable Output Voltage

The DDR-60 Series provides regulated DC output voltage with adjustment capability within ±10%. This allows engineers to fine-tune output voltage according to system requirements, cable voltage drop compensation needs, connected load characteristics and control cabinet design conditions.

Output adjustment ranges depend on the selected model:

5V output models: adjustable from 4.5V to 5.5V
12V output models: adjustable from 9V to 13.2V
15V output models: adjustable from 13.5V to 16.5V

Wide Input Voltage Range and Under-Voltage Lockout

The DDR-60 Series supports two wide DC input ranges:

DDR-60G Series: 9–36Vdc input
DDR-60L Series: 18–75Vdc input

The built-in input under-voltage lockout function protects the converter and connected equipment when the input voltage falls below the required operating threshold.

For DDR-60G models, the converter turns on when input voltage reaches approximately 9Vdc and shuts down below approximately 8.5Vdc. For DDR-60L models, the converter turns on at approximately 18Vdc and shuts down below approximately 17Vdc.

This function helps maintain stable operation in battery-powered systems, mobile DC equipment and industrial applications where input voltage fluctuations may occur during startup or load changes.

Input Reverse Polarity Protection

The DDR-60 Series integrates an internal MOSFET-based input reverse polarity protection design. If DC input polarity is connected incorrectly, the protection circuit prevents normal operation and helps protect the converter from damage.

After removing the fault condition and correcting the input wiring, the unit automatically recovers. This feature is valuable for field installation, control cabinet wiring and maintenance environments where DC polarity errors may occur.

4KVdc I/O Reinforced Isolation

The DDR-60 Series provides 4KVdc input-to-output reinforced isolation, helping improve electrical separation between the DC input source and output circuits.

This isolation capability makes the series suitable for industrial applications requiring improved system safety, noise reduction and reliable DC power conversion between different voltage domains.

Typical applications include industrial automation equipment, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, communication systems and distributed DC power architectures.

No Minimum Load Requirement and Reliable Industrial Operation

Unlike some DC-DC converters that require a minimum output load to maintain regulation, the DDR-60 Series supports operation without minimum load requirements.

Combined with fanless cooling by free air convection, high efficiency up to 92% and a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, the series provides reliable performance for long-term industrial deployment.

Typical applications include DC voltage conversion, system insulation improvement and cable voltage drop compensation.

How do I select the correct DDR-60 Series model?

Select the DDR-60 model according to:

Input voltage: Choose DDR-60G for 9–36Vdc systems or DDR-60L for 18–75Vdc systems.
Output voltage: Select 5V, 12V, 15V or 24V according to the connected equipment.
Output current: Confirm the required load current is within the rated specification.
Installation environment: Consider cabinet space, ambient temperature and required ventilation.

For example, DDR-60G-24 is suitable for 9–36Vdc input systems requiring 24V output, while DDR-60L-24 is suitable for 18–75Vdc input applications requiring isolated 24V DC conversion.
