Test conditions and notes8

1. All parameters are specified at 230VAC 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. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
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 https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )

FAQ

What are the main output specs of the Mean Well GSM18B12-P1J?

The GSM18B12-P1J is an 18W AC/DC power supply with a regulated 12V DC output rated at 1.5A. It is a medical adaptor from the GSM18B series and uses the P1J DC plug format listed for this model.

Is the GSM18B12-P1J suitable for medical applications?

Yes. This model is medical safety approved and specifies 2 x MOPP isolation between primary and secondary. It also lists low leakage current below 50uA and compliance with medical safety standards including ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1 and EN60601-1-11.

What input voltage range does the GSM18B12-P1J support?

This power supply supports universal input from 80 to 264VAC, and it also accepts 113 to 370VDC. That wide input range makes it suitable for use across regions where mains voltage can vary.

What protection features are included in this power supply?

The GSM18B12-P1J includes overload and over voltage protection. Overload protection is specified at 105% to 170% of rated output power and uses hiccup mode with automatic recovery, while over voltage protection (12.6V to 17.2V) shuts down the output until the unit is re-powered.

Can the GSM18B12-P1J be used in demanding operating environments?

It is rated for operation from -25°C to +60°C, subject to the output derating curve, at 20% to 90% RH non-condensing. It is also specified for vibration of 10 to 500Hz, 2G along the X, Y and Z axes.

What plug and cable details are specified for the GSM18B12-P1J?

This model uses the standard P1J DC plug, specified as 2.1 mm x 5.5 mm x 11 mm with center positive polarity. For 12V to 48V models, the listed output cable length is 180 cm using UL1185 18AWG cable, which applies to this 12V version.
