GME VC10S 24V to 12V DC Voltage Converter 10 Amp
A 10 amp 24V to 12V DC voltage converter, the GME VC10S is designed for UHF CB radio installations in heavy vehicles and plant equipment, featuring 24V/13.2V switch mode operation, reverse polarity protection, and over-temperature cut off.
Product Overview
The GME VC10S is a 10 amp 24V to 12V DC voltage converter purpose built for UHF CB radio installations in heavy vehicles, trucks, and plant equipment running a 24V electrical system. Converting a wide 15V to 38V input down to a steady 13.2V output, the VC10S allows a standard 12V UHF CB radio to be installed and run reliably from a 24V vehicle supply, with the extra current handling suited to higher-draw radios and accessories.
Switch mode operation keeps the VC10S compact and efficient, while built-in reverse polarity protection and an over-temperature cut off safeguard the connected radio and the converter itself. Installation is a quick and easy process.
Features & Benefits
10 Amp Current Rating: The higher 10 amp current rating suits higher-draw UHF CB radios and connected accessories compared to lighter duty converters.
24V/13.2V Switch Mode Operation: Switch mode conversion efficiently steps a 24V supply down to a stable 13.2V output for standard UHF CB radios.
Wide 15V to 38V Input Range: The wide input voltage range accommodates fluctuations in heavy vehicle and plant equipment electrical systems.
Reverse Polarity Protection: Built-in reverse polarity protection guards the converter and connected radio against incorrect wiring.
Over-Temperature Cut Off: An over-temperature cut off protects the converter from damage during extended or demanding use.
Quick and Easy Installation Process: Designed for a quick and easy installation process.
