The operating ambient temperature range of the SMW is -40 to 71 degrees Celsius. The units are encapsulated with a thermally conductive potting compound in a non-conductive plastic case. The series is isolated input to output with an isolation voltage rating of 1500 volts DC. The case is designed to withstand most solder/wash processes. The SMW series has a Remote On/Off have which when used has a standby current of 10 milliamps. The SMW series is CSA 60950 approved and RoHS compliant.
