Overview
GSM12U18-P1J is the 18V output model of this series: rated current 0.66A, typical efficiency 85%.
GSM12U is a highly reliable, 12W wall-mounted style single-output green medical adaptor series, which is compact and convient for carry. This product is equipped with the standard 2-pin U.S. plug. GSM12U is a class Ⅱ power unit (no FG), accepting the input range from 80VAC to 264VAC that it can satisfy the demands for various types of medical electrical devices. The circuitry design meets the international medical standards (2*MOPP), having an ultra low leakage current (<100μA), fitting the medical devices in direct electrical contact with the patients. With the working effiiciency up to 87% and the extremely low no-load power consumption below 0.075W (<0.1W for 18V/48V), GSM12U is compliant with the latest USA energy regulation EISA 2007/DoE(Level Ⅵ). The supreme feature allows the adaptor to save the energy when it is under either the operating mode or the standby mode. The entire series is approved for international safety regulations; moreover, it adopts the 94V-0 flame retadant plastic case that it can effeclively prevent users from electric hazarad.

Test conditions and notes8
- 1.All parameters are specified at 115VAC input, rated load, 25℃ 70% RH ambient.
- 2.DC voltage: The output voltage set at point measure by plug terminal & 50% load.
- 3.Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz by using a 12" twisted pair terminated with a 0.1μf & 47μf capacitor.
- 4.Tolerance: includes set up tolerance, line regulation, load regulation.
- 5.Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
- 6.Load regulation is measured from 10% to 100% rated load.
- 7.Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 8.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 http://www.meanwell.com)

FAQ
Can I use the GSM12U18-P1J for a small 18V automation device?
Yes, if the device requires constant 18V DC and draws no more than 0.66A, this supply is within range. Its total output is 12W, so it is best for lower-power automation loads rather than high-current equipment.
Is this 18V power supply a good fit for embedded control electronics?
It can be used for embedded electronics that are designed around a fixed 18V input and stay within the 12W output limit. The 80-264VAC input range is also useful for equipment deployed across different AC mains conditions.
Can this model power a compact 18V monitoring or data collection unit?
It is suitable for compact monitoring or data acquisition hardware that specifically needs 18V constant voltage and no more than 0.66A. That makes it more appropriate for light-power electronics than for motors or other heavy loads.
Would the GSM12U18-P1J work for a small industrial test instrument?
Yes, for a small instrument that runs on 18V DC and remains within 12W, this supply is a reasonable match. Its 62.2 × 27.4 × 45.5 mm (L × W × H) dimensions support use in compact equipment layouts.
Can this power supply be used in unprotected outdoor locations?
The unit is rated IP22, so it should not be used for exposed outdoor installation by itself. The operating temperature range is -20°C to +70°C with load derating at higher temperatures, but environmental protection would need to come from the end enclosure.
