Safety and Installation Instructions
Fusing Consideration
Caution:This converter is not internally fused.An input line fuse must always be used.
This encapsulated converter can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple stand-
alone
operation to an integrated part of a sophisticated power architecture. For
maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not
included; however, to achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety
agencies require a slow-blow fuse with a maximumrating of 10A. Based on the information provided in this
data sheet
on i
nrush energy and maximum dc input current; the same type of fuse with lower rating can be used. Refer to the
fuse manufacturer’s data for further information.
MTBF and Reliability
TheMTBF of PXD30-xxWDxx series of DC/DC converters has beencalculated using:
Bellcore TR-NWT-000332Case I: 50%stress, Operating Temperature at 40°C (Ground fixed and controlled
environment). The resulting figure for MTBF is 3.163×10
6
hours.
MIL-HDBK 217F NOTICE2FULLLOAD, Operating Temperature at 25°C . The resulting figure for MTBF is
4.347×10
5
hours.
