Furuno 12V-24V 7 Amp Converter f/DRS12AX X-Class Open Array - Newmar Product Description
Upgrade your marine electronics setup with a dependable power solution designed specifically for high-performance radars like the Furuno DRS12AX X-Class Open Array. This 12V to 24V step-up DC-DC converter delivers steady 7-amp output, bridging the gap between your boat's standard 12-volt system and the 24-volt demands of advanced radar systems. Built for the harsh marine environment, it ensures uninterrupted operation without the hassle of maintaining a separate 24-volt battery bank.
Boat owners and fishing enthusiasts know the frustration of voltage mismatches—your robust 12V house bank can't directly feed 24V radar domes. This converter steps in seamlessly, providing clean, regulated power that keeps your radar scanning reliably through rough seas, long nights, and variable loads.
Unlock Reliable Power for Your Radar Dome
- Simplify Dual-Voltage Systems: Tap into your existing 12V batteries to power 24V gear, eliminating extra wiring, chargers, and batteries that add weight and complexity.
- Marine-Tough Durability: Anodized aluminum and glass-filled polycarbonate housing shrugs off saltwater spray, dust, impacts, and vibrations—rated to IP53 for real-world protection.
- Smart Protections: Current limiting, voltage spike suppression, and automatic thermal shutdown safeguard your electronics and batteries from overloads or faults.
- Effortless Monitoring: A green LED glows to confirm output, giving you instant peace of mind at a glance.
- High Efficiency: Up to 93% typical efficiency means less heat, longer battery life, and cooler operation even during extended use.
Engineered for Seamless Integration
Non-isolated design suits negative ground systems common on boats, sharing a common negative for straightforward installs. Front-panel terminal blocks make connections quick and secure—no fumbling with tiny screws in tight helm spaces.
Perfect for Furuno's DRS12AX and similar open-array radars, it handles the power-hungry motor and electronics without skipping a beat. Fishermen targeting offshore species or navigators plotting coastal routes rely on this for crystal-clear returns every time.
Detailed Technical Specs
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage | 10-15V DC |
| Output Voltage | 27.2V DC ±5% under full load and temperature extremes |
| Output Current | 7 Amps continuous |
| Ripple | <100mV peak-to-peak |
| Regulation | ±5% line/load |
| Efficiency | 93% typical |
| Operating Temperature | -25°C to +80°C (derate linearly above 30°C) |
| Duty Cycle | Continuous: 100% (24 hours); Intermittent: 20% (2 minutes) |
These specs ensure stable performance across fluctuating battery voltages and loads, critical for radar precision in dynamic marine conditions.
Pro Installation Tips for Optimal Performance
- Site Selection: Mount in a dry, ventilated spot away from engine heat—ideally in the electronics bay or behind the helm.
- Wiring: Use appropriately sized wire (10-12 AWG recommended for short runs) with inline fuses on input/output for safety.
- Grounding: Connect to your boat's common negative bus to avoid ground loops.
- Testing: Power up with radar disconnected first, verify 24V output via multimeter, then integrate.
- Ventilation: Ensure airflow; the unit self-protects but stays cooler with good circulation.
Following these steps minimizes downtime and maximizes your investment. If you're new to marine wiring, consult a certified technician for peace of mind.
Ideal Applications Beyond Radar
While optimized for Furuno DRS12AX, this converter shines in any 12V boat powering 24V thrusters, winches, or instrumentation. Sportfishing yachts, center consoles, and workboats all benefit from its compact reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions
12V-24V 7 Amp Converter for DRS12AX X-Class Open Array - Newmar
Newmar 12-24-7 Step Up Dc-Dc Converter 7amp Conitnuos
These "UP" converters produce 24 volts from 12 volt systems and are ideal for managing dual voltage applications on marine vessels without having to install a 24 volt battery and dedicated charging system. Choose from two types depending on your application:
In the Standard, Non-Isolated Series the 12V input and 24V output share a common negative ground and are ideal when installing certain electronics that operate better on 24 volts when a robust 12 volt system exists. Models available in outputs of 7, 16 and 25 amps.
