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. 150% 5 seconds, please refer to peak loading curves.
6. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than2000m(6500ft).
7. 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 )

FAQ

Can I use the DDR-480D-12 to convert a 110V DC bus down to 12V for embedded controllers?

Yes. The DDR-480D-12 accepts 67.2-154V DC input, which covers standard 110V and 125V DC distribution systems. It outputs 12V at up to 33.4A (400.8W), providing ample current for embedded controllers, single-board computers, and other 12V loads in industrial or railway applications.

Is the DDR-480D-12 suitable for powering 12V LED lighting systems from a high-voltage DC source?

The DDR-480D-12 can convert a 67.2-154V DC input down to 12V at 33.4A, delivering 400.8W total. This is enough to drive substantial 12V LED lighting arrays in industrial or commercial settings where the primary power distribution uses a higher DC voltage bus.

Can the DDR-480D-12 be used in railway or transit applications with a 72V or 110V DC supply?

The DDR-480D-12 accepts input from 67.2V to 154V DC, which covers 110V nominal DC systems and 72V nominal systems as long as the supply does not drop below 67.2V (66-67.2V is tolerated for 100ms). It meets EN50155 / IEC60571 and EN45545-2 fire protection, and its DIN rail form factor, -40 to +80 degrees C operating range, and 4KVdc isolation make it suitable for demanding transportation environments.

How does the DDR-480D-12 handle high ambient temperatures in enclosed control cabinets?

The DDR-480D-12 operates from -40 to +80 degrees Celsius, with the allowable load reduced at higher ambient temperatures according to the derating curve; over-temperature protection shuts down the output. In enclosed cabinets, adequate ventilation or cabinet cooling should be provided to avoid derating. The datasheet does not specify an ingress protection rating, so rely on the enclosure for environmental sealing.

What are the DDR-480D series output voltage options for the 67.2-154V input range?

The DDR-480D series with 67.2-154V DC input is available in three output variants: the DDR-480D-12 at 400.8W/12V/33.4A, the DDR-480D-24 at 480W/24V/20A, and the DDR-480D-48 at 480W/48V/10A. For lower input voltage ranges, the B series (16.8-33.6V) and C series (33.6-67.2V) offer the same output options.
