Test conditions and notes7
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at normal input (B:24Vdc , C:48Vdc , D:110Vdc ) , rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 5. 3 seconds max., please refer to peak loading curves.
- 6. The power supply is considered as an independent unit, but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that the whole system complies with the EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies." (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
- 7. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than2000m(6500ft).

FAQ
Can I use the DDR-240C-48 to step up or regulate a 48V battery bank to a stable 48V rail?
The DDR-240C-48 accepts 33.6-67.2V DC input and outputs a regulated 48V at up to 5A (240W). If your battery voltage sags below 48V during discharge but stays above 33.6V, this converter will keep a stable 48V output for loads like telecom equipment or PoE switches; note that output derating is needed at low input voltage (see the datasheet's output derating vs. input voltage curve).
Is the DDR-240C-48 suitable for powering 48V PoE network switches from a DC bus?
Yes. At 240W and 48V/5A output, the DDR-240C-48 can supply a midspan PoE injector or 48V PoE switch from any DC bus between 33.6V and 67.2V. The 4KVdc I/O isolation helps protect network equipment from noise and transients on the primary DC bus.
Can the DDR-240C-48 convert a 60V DC solar charge controller output to 48V for battery charging equipment?
Yes. A 60V DC source falls within the 33.6-67.2V input range. The DDR-240C-48 will regulate this to a stable 48V at up to 5A, which can feed battery management systems or charge controllers that expect a 48V nominal input in off-grid or hybrid solar installations.
Will the DDR-240C-48 work in a sealed industrial enclosure without forced airflow?
The DDR-240C-48 is rated for an operating temperature of -40°C to +70°C, with output derating at higher ambient temperatures per the datasheet's derating curve. It can be installed inside sealed NEMA-rated or IP-rated enclosures, provided the enclosure can dissipate the heat generated and the internal ambient stays within the rated range for your load.
Can I use the DDR-240C-48 to power 48V DC motors or actuators in a factory automation panel?
Yes. The DDR-240C-48 delivers 48V at 5A (240W) from a DC bus in the 33.6-67.2V range, which suits small 48V motors, solenoid banks, and linear actuators. Its DIN rail mounting integrates directly into standard industrial control panels alongside PLCs and terminal blocks.
What are the differences between the DDR-240B-48, DDR-240C-48, and DDR-240D-48?
All three deliver 240W at 48V/5A output and share the same physical dimensions (40 x 125.2 x 113.5 mm). They differ in input voltage range: the DDR-240B-48 takes 16.8-33.6V DC, the DDR-240C-48 takes 33.6-67.2V DC, and the DDR-240D-48 takes 67.2-154V DC. Choose based on the voltage of your source DC bus.
