Gaugemaster Controls, a leading manufacturer of model railway controllers, attributes the reliability and continual growth of their products to the exceptional power supply solutions provided by Ideal Power. With a decade-long partnership, Ideal Power has consistently proven to be the preferred choice for Gaugemaster Controls when it comes to sourcing power supplies.
Established in 1974, Gaugemaster Controls has gained a strong reputation in the model railway industry for delivering high-quality products to its customers. The company sought to expand their product range by introducing the Gaugemaster Infinity Range, a wireless analogue solution that allows users to control separate track sections from a single remote. Additionally, they introduced a single-track controller with a plug-in transformer, providing convenience and versatility to railway enthusiasts.
Railway controllers play a vital role in controlling train movements, operating signals, communicating with trains and other railway assets, monitoring track availability, and ensuring overall safety on the railway network.
Ideal Power’s AC/DC External desktop power supply, part number 15DYS865-150400W, and the AC/AC External adapter, part number 77DB-12-16-GM, perfectly met Gaugemaster’s requirements. For the latter part number, a bespoke power supply solution was recommended based on specific product specifications.
By offering tailored power supply solutions, Gaugemaster ensures that their PSU optimally meets the unique needs of their customers and their model railway setups. This customization results in a more efficient and reliable power supply, leading to improved performance and smoother operation of the model railway.
In addition to enhanced performance, bespoke PSU solutions offer the advantage of energy efficiency, ultimately reducing overall running costs for customers. By designing the PSU to match the specific power requirements of each setup, unnecessary energy waste is eliminated, promoting sustainability and long-term cost savings. Moreover, customized PSU solutions incorporate advanced safety features such as over-current and over-voltage protection, providing customers with peace of mind.
