Introduction
About the Product
This product is a power supply unit that generates a stable power supply from a 12VDC or 24VDC car
battery power supply.
Even though it has a compact, slitless case with dimensions of 86 (W) × 155 (D) × 44 (H) mm, it
supports a wide range of temperatures from -20 to 70°C. This product can be used to protect computer
systems from unstable power supply environments in which problems such as surges, voltage
fluctuations, and instantaneous voltage drops occur randomly.
It is equipped with a separate power supply output for external devices other than a computer, so it can
provide stable power to other devices in the same manner as the stable power that is provided to the PC.
If you install on your computer the utility software (which can be downloaded free of charge) for use in
Windows, you can start and shut down the computer by linking to the ignition switch.
This product can be used with the CONTEC models shown below.
BOX-PC : BX-955SD-DCxxxx, BX-220D-DCxxxxxx, BX-830D-DC7xxxxx
BX-956SD-DC7xxxxx
*1
*1: Use a consumption power of 24V/1.5A when performing cranking with the BX-956S Series.
Features
Supports the voltage drops that occur when an engine starts
When an engine starts, the battery voltage drops and may remain at a low voltage for a fixed length of
time. This product continues to provide the BOX-PC with a stable power supply even during this period
of time.
Applicable models: BOX-PC BX-220 Series, BOX-PC BX-955S Series
BOX-PC BX-830 Series
BOX-PC BX-956S Series
*1: Use a consumption power of 24V/1.5A when performing cranking with the BX-956S Series.
Power supply monitoring utility software is available for managing the power supply to industrial
equipment
The starting and shutting down of BOX-PCs can be linked to the operation of the ignition switch. BOX-
PCs can be connected to this product by way of a serial or USB interface.
Supports a wide range of temperatures with operations guaranteed from -20 to 70°C *
Stable operations of this product are possible over a wide range of temperatures from -20 to 70°C.
* After checking the temperature derating, adjust the load factor to match the usage environment.
A USB cable attachment is available to prevent problems caused by cable disconnections
The USB cable attachment enables you to prevent disconnections of the included USB cable, which
enables you to prevent problems from occurring.
