I need to use some equipment in an aircraft which only has a 400 Hz supply. My believe is that a switch mode power supply should not really care too much if the supply frequency is higher. Anyone any experience of using normal 50/60 Hz SMPS's on 400 Hz?
I don't have any experience at 400Hz, but I'd be wary of any SMPS that
had power factor correction or automatic-voltage-switching built-in.
That, and the y-caps in there might throw you a curve. Bottomline the manufacturer of the power supply would have to be asked.
Most likely they would not endorse use in an aircraft anyhow. Possibly it would also require an STC blessed by the FAA -> $$$.
