GENERAL DESCRIPTION 
The Dimension CD-Series offer DIN-rail DC/DC converters 
in the 92-120W output power range in a very compact 
housing. These DC/DC converters are allowed to run 
with a battery or similar sources or can also be used to 
refresh and stabilize the 24Vdc on the end of long cable 
runs. The basic units include all the essential basic 
functions while the -S1 version is equipped with quick-
connect spring clamp terminals, a DC-OK-contact which 
monitors the output and an input-low-relay-contact. 
The –L1 version additionally fulfills the NEC Class 2 
requirements. All devices except the CD5.241-L1 have a 
PowerBoost of 20% incorporated. This extra power can 
even be used continuously up to +45°C.
