Waterproof Transfomer Converts 120V/280V AC to 24 Volts DC - Capacity to 10 amps
Part #: DCP-10-24V
The Larson Electronics DCP-10-24V Waterproof Power Supply converts commonly used 100-277VAC electrical current to 24VDC @10
Amps. This converter is designed to be hardwired into building, boat or vehicle electrical supplies and takes voltages within the 100-
305VAC range and reduces it to 24VDC, allowing users to use standard AC power to operate equipment like our LED light bars and HID
Golights that require 12 Volts DC.
The DCP-10-24V 192 watt power converter provides a safe and effective way for users to tap into and utilize common 100 to 277 Volt AC power
sources and convert this current to 24 Volts DC for use with equipment that requires 24 volt electrical power. This unit can be operated with input
current ranging from 100 to 277 VAC and will output 192 watt 24 Volt DC current at 10 amps. This power converter features an IP67 rated
waterproof design, making it suitable for indoor or outdoor use and is wet-damp area approved. This converter includes integral short circuit, over
voltage, over temperature and overload protection that will shut down the unit or reduce output in case of faults and overloads to protect the unit
and connected equipment from damage.
The small size and wide input voltage range of this unit make it ideal for indoor-outdoor operation of Larson Electronics LED light bars, Golights
and other equipment that requires 24VDC current and anywhere 24 volt DC power is not readily available. Measuring 9.6 inches long by 2.6
inches wide by 1.5 inches deep, this unit weighs approximately one pound and is mounted with two conventional screws via slots that allow
removal and repositioning simply by loosening the screws.
This converter comes with clearly labeled input and output leads that are approximately 1 foot long and stripped and tinned for hardwired
connections using butt splice connectors, wire screws, plates, etc.
Features: The DCP-10-24V 192 watt converter features full range, universal AC input capability and can be operated with 100 to 277VAC. The
unit converts this AC power input to 192 watt, 10 Amp 24VDC output. IP67 rated, this unit is waterproof, wet and damp area approved and
suitable for indoor or outdoor applications. Integrally designed protection includes overload, short circuit, over temperature and over voltage
safeguards to prevent overheating and unit damage in case of faults or overly heavy current draw. This unit will limit current when an over current
condition is encountered and recovers when the condition is removed. This unit will enter hiccup mode under short circuit conditions and recover
when the fault is removed. The unit will also shut down when an over temperature condition occurs and recovers automatically when the
temperature returns to normal levels.
This power converter has a -30 / +60C operating temperature range and is UL UL1012 and UL60950-1 compliant as well as compliant with
worldwide safety regulations for lighting. This unit has a 93% conversion efficiency and is suitable for use with moving LED signs and similar LED
equipment. These units also feature Power Factor Correction, adjustable output current range from 5~ 10A either through the output cable or
internal potential meter and have an input frequency range of 47 ~ 63Hz.
NOTE: In order to obtain the best performance and the longest operational life from these units, it is recommended that you do not exceed 75%
of the unit’s output amperage. To determine if this converter suits your desired application, add together the total wattage of the equipment you
intend to use with this unit and divide this total by 12 volts to find the total amperage draw that will be placed upon the converter. For example, if
you are using two of our LEDP10W-60E 60 watt LED lights, 120 watts divided by 24 volts is 5 amps. This would mean the DCP-10-24V is well
suited as it would run at 50% capacity to produce the necessary 5 amps. Running these units at 100% of their capacity can create excess heat
and lead to shortened converter life.
