Magic 24/12-20
For the toughest tasks
The Mac and Magic DC-DC converters are designed for the toughest conditions
for professional, semi-professional and recreational purposes. Even under the
most extreme conditions, these DC-DC converters operate faultlessly, giving you
round-the-clock output when necessary. The sustainability and technologies that
underpin the Mastervolt concept have long been proven in practice. With an MTBF
of 280,000 hours at full capacity and 24/7 use, the DC-DC converters are ideal
for the toughest tasks and any situation that requires a reliable power supply.
Making the best even better
The reliability and long lifespan of Mastervolt’s DC-DC converters have been
established beyond doubt over the past 20 years. While the Mastervolt products
have evolved with the latest technological developments, the dimensions and
connections have remained the same. As a result it is exceptionally easy to
replace one unit with another with only negligible downtime.
Mastervolt Green by Heart
As part of our constant search for eco-friendly and long-lasting solutions,
Mastervolt has developed the Green by Heart programme. Its impact on the Mac &
Magic DC-DC converters include:
-
An exceptionally effective use of the consumed input current (cos phi) >
0.98!
-
Faster charging of batteries, even with when the input current is limited.
-
Use of top quality components with a long lifespan.
-
Savings in weight and space.
- Fewer installation materials.
MasterBus compatible
For the DC-DC converters you can use the MasterBus Serial Interface. All you
need is a single cable with one connection. Your benefits: Fast and easy
installation, plus centralised monitoring, configuration and operation of your
system with a MasterView panel.
Programmable via desktop or laptop/PC
Remote control the Mac or Magic via your laptop or PC or configure
your personal preferences. The device has a communication port and easy
installation with a PC-Link and MasterAdjust software.
Energy-saving dimmer function
Many standard light dimmers convert part of the energy to heat and
also lose unnecessary energy. The Mastervolt Magic converters regulate the power
supply efficiently and without excessive heat build-up, up to 580 watts for
optimal safety (multiple Magic converters can be used for multiple lamps).
Parallel operation
If you have many/heavy power-consuming devices onboard, the
parallel use of several units allows capacities of 40, 60 or more Amps. Advanced
high-frequency technology with modern microprocessors ensures minimum power loss
when switching from 24 to 12 V and vice versa.
Powerful selling points
- Reliable and very stable DC supply.
-
For 12 and 24 V battery systems.
-
Parallel switching of multiple units for capacities of 40, 60 or more
Amps.
-
Battery charger and dimmer function.
-
Adjustable output voltage.
-
Voltage stabilisation for a longer lifespan of halogen lights, etc.
-
Corrosion-proof aluminium casing.
-
Shock-proof.
-
Temperature-powered fan for cooling.
-
Generates limited heat, so installable almost anywhere.
- Fully MasterBus compatible with a MasterBus Serial Interface.
Magic as power supply
The Magic models can be fully used as a stabilised power supply: From 12 to
24 V, from 24 to 12 V or from 24 to 24 V. Inputs and outputs are galvanically
isolated.
Mac & Magic as battery charger
12 V starter or emergency power batteries can be charged and monitored by a
Mac or Magic converter. The charging method is identical to Mastervolt’s Mass
products (3-step technology), and voltage levels are adjustable using the
MasterBus PC-Link/MasterAdjust software.
Mac or Magic as dimmer
Lights can be dimmed by means of a push button or pulse switch, with a
maximum load of 250 watt for the Mac. A second Mac can be installed when using
multiple lamps. Lights can be dimmed by means of a push button or pulse
switch, with a maximum load of 250 watt for the Mac. A second Mac can be
installed when using multiple lamps.
