200 W enclosed PSU

23 January 2013 Power Electronics / Power Management

Mean Well has improved on its SP-200 series of 200 W enclosed power supplies to create the RSP-200. The new low-profile (1U or 30 mm) AC-DC units are 24,7% smaller in size and 6–19% more efficient than the previous generation, and they extend the operating temperature range from


-30°C to +70°C.

The single-output RSP-200 series incorporates power factor correction and boast up to 90% efficiency, allowing it to be cooled by free air convection from -30°C to +45°C ambient temperature under full load condition, and up to +70°C by suitable derating.

In order to work in humid and dusty environments, the new series includes optional conformal coating models (RSP-200-CC), which have moisture and dust resistance at the PCB level.

To fulfil the low profile and low output voltage demands from LED display manufacturers, the RSP-200 series provides 2,5 V/3,3 V/4 V/5 V (40 A) models. Built-in functions include short circuit, overload, over-voltage and over-temperature protections. The power supplies comply with UL, CUL, TUV, CB, and CE regulations.

Applications include industrial automation systems, mechanical and electrical industry, instruments, LED displays or any systems that require 1U low-profile installations.
