Coralvue在MacNA 2022上推出了新的电源,称为Kraken。他们不断发展,不断扩展的扩展氢控制器范围, Kraken is aimed at replacing up to eight 24V and four 12V power supplies, the likes of which are used to power popular aquarium DC devices such as pumps, ATO’s and LED lights. Cable management is a conundrum that affects every reefkeeper and Kraken is aimed at simplifying and consolidating nearly all your aquarium device’s power leads into one plug-in unit, powered by one super-sized industrial-grade MeanWell power supply.
Meanwell驾驶员最多可以处理20安培和480瓦的总功率,并带有Kraken,但氢制造商Coralvue说,如果您需要更大的驾驶员和更长的功率扩展线路(例如对于珊瑚农场),则可以单独购买,并将与Kraken设备一起使用。
What does Kraken do?
大多数DC水族馆设备都配有黑色塑料电源和插头。该设备通过一根电缆插入电源,另一侧另一台电缆将电源连接到电源。Kraken消除了黑色的电源和主电源的插头,尽管然后您需要电缆在一端连接到设备电缆,而Kraken电源在另一端连接。Coralvuehasn’t confirmed just how many cables and of which type will be supplied with the Kraken, but many different types should be available in the future and they should be able to connect to virtually any 24V or 12V DC pump, light, or other aquarium devices.
Is Kraken an aquarium controller?
No, it’s a power brick that does away with some, but not all of your wiring. It won’t control a直流泵的速度或流量设置例如,如果它具有泵的内联控制器,您仍然必须使用泵的内联控制器,或者选择单独的Hydros控制器。The DC voltage and 480-watt limit also mean that you won’t be able to plug everything into it like a heater, but you can connect any 12V lead acid battery to it and use it as a battery backup for DC pumps and lights if the mains power is cut off.
Kraken帮助Reefers处理一些电缆问题,并从机柜内部删除多达八个24V电源。如果充分利用了螺纹的前部,则看起来仍然像是电缆节,但它比标准电动砖删除了更多的电缆组件,而且优质的Meanwell驱动程序可能比提供某些设备的便宜电源更可靠。电缆全部锁定为安全,您可以得到防水,防尘面部,你可以安装它,将它连接到水电wi - fiapp, and you are provided with a much tidier, more integrated interface.
