I — INTRODUCTION
SCOPE OF MANUAL. This instruction manual covers the installation and operation of the Kepco RTW 100W Series of Open Frame PFC
(Power Factor Corrected) RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances) compliant Switching Power Supplies.
DESCRIPTION. The Kepco RTW 100W Series consists of seven models of switching power supplies, with a single output as shown in Table
1. Units may be operated with a nominal 100 to 120V a-c and 220 to 240V a-c (input voltage range 85 to 265 Va-c), 50-60 Hz (input frequency
range 47-440Hz; units operate up to 440Hz although leakage current, power factor and efficiency specifications may not be met)). They will
also operate on 120V to 370V d-c input. The RTW 100W Series employs a forward converter with a fixed switching frequency of 160KHz.
Power Factor Correction (PFC) is provided by a boost converter. Regulation is provided by pulse width modulation. A thermistor circuit prevents excessive turn-on current surge. Remote on-off and remote programming of output voltage using an external resistance can be implemented. Overvoltage and overcurrent protection is provided. Current limiting with automatic recovery from short circuit is featured. Units are
convection cooled L-chassis construction. Models with a factory-installed steel cover are indicated by a C suffix following the model number
(e.g., RTW 5-20KC).
Section II contains specifications and operating limits of individual RTW 100W Series models (Table 1) as well as specifications and operating
limits common to all RTW 100W Series Models. Section III describes installation and Section IV describes operation

(1) An overvoltage shuts down the output. Recover by recycling a-c input (30 second delay required before resetting).
(2) Hiccup mode operation. After the cause of overcurrent is removed, output voltage recovers automatically.
(3) See Figure 1 for temperature and input voltage rating.
(4) Bandwidth 100MHz. Ripple and noise will be approximately 1.5 times these values in the operating temperature range -10 ~ 0°C. The ripple and noise
values tabulated are valid when the output is derated as shown in figure 1 from 40 ~ 71°C.
(5) Used for remote programming of output voltage. See Section IV OPERATION, REMOTE VOLTAGE PROGRAMMING.

INPUT PROTECTION AND SOFT START: A thermistor circuit reduces start-up surge. Units are protected against shorts by an input
fuse. Fuse value 3.15A, 250V (N-Siesen P/N: SST250V3.15A(TA)-TR, Kepco P/N: 541-0042).
INPUT SURGE: cold start 25 °C (First surge only, not including the current flow into the EMI filter)
14A typ. (100 V a-c, 100% load); 28A typ. (200 Va-c, 100% load).
LEAKAGE CURRENT:
