A small fan blowing across the heat sink on your booster will increase the maximum sustained current output capacity of your booster.Įach DCC company specifies the output capacity of its boosters according to their own internal standards. If the heat sink does not get enough air flow to allow for heat dissipation, the booster will eventually reach an over temperature state and shut down. Higher input voltages increase the amount of heat that must be dissipated by the booster's heat sink. The actual continuous output current that your booster will provide to the layout depends on several factors including the input supply voltage, the ambient room temperature and air flow over the booster's heat sink. Technical Note About DCC Booster Output Ratings: Digitrax boosters have maximum output current limits of either 5 or 8 amps. Maximum input 22 volts AC or 28 volts DC Minimum input 12 volts AC or 15 volts DC. Recommended power supply: Digitrax PS514 or equivalent. Note: Accepts either 50/60 Hz AC or DC input from power supply (sold separately). The trains won't just "take-off" if they are not getting the DCC signal.Ĭomplies with FCC Part 15, Class B RFI Requirements. High impedance balanced or unbalanced signal input receivers on the LocoNet Interface allow boosting of several different types of command control signals.Īuto shutdown if command control drive signal is lost so that the layout will not convert to DC operation if a cable or connection is broken.

Sync output configures DB150 Operating Mode & connects the DB150 to expansion boosters Track Status indicator shows voltage and signal type (DCC or "Zero Stretch" Analog Signal for conventional operation.)

User selectable multi-scale operation for N, HO, and large-scale layouts Many command station options are user customizable.Īuto resetting over temperature & short circuit protection. Provides additional power to run more trains in booster mode.Ĭan be used as an Intelligent Auto Reversing Boosterīuilt in 5 Amp Digital Command Control Booster Rated at 80VA. Run up to 22 locos and 22 throttles in command station mode. Full LocoNet Capabilities for easy plug 'n play installation and system expansion
