Test conditions and notes5
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25°C of ambient temperature.
- 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor. Measure before Choke.
- 3. Efficiency before choke.
- 4. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. The final equipment must be re-confirmed that it still meets 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)
- 5. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5°C/1000m with fanless models and of 5°C/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).

FAQ
Can the KNX-40E-1280D be used for a higher-capacity KNX control cabinet in building management?
Yes. This model is rated at 30V, 38.4W, and 1280mA, so it suits KNX building management cabinets that need a 1280mA bus supply. It is also designed as a DIN rail power supply for panel use.
Is the KNX-40E-1280D suitable for centralized KNX automation panels in commercial control enclosures?
It is well suited to centralized KNX control enclosures that use a 30V KNX supply and need the 38.4W, 1280mA rating. The integrated choke lets it feed the KNX bus directly. Its 72 × 90 × 57 mm (W × H × D) size mounts on a standard 35mm DIN rail in cabinet layouts.
Can I use the KNX-40E-1280D in a PLC cabinet that also includes KNX-based building control functions?
Yes, when the KNX portion of the cabinet needs a dedicated 30V KNX power supply within a 38.4W and 1280mA rating. The DIN rail format makes it practical for mixed-control cabinets where panel organization matters. It should still be selected as a KNX power component, not as a general-purpose cabinet supply.
Should the KNX-40E-1280D be installed only inside an enclosure or cabinet?
It is best used inside a control cabinet or enclosure. The operating temperature range is -30°C to +70°C (refer to the derating curve), and the unit has an IP20 design. That makes protected indoor cabinet use the appropriate environment.
How does the KNX-40E-1280D compare with the other models in the KNX series?
The KNX-40E-1280D is a 38.4W, 30V, 1280mA model. The KNX-40E-1280 in the same series has the same 38.4W, 30V, 1280mA rating. The D version adds a fuller diagnostic LED set and a KNX communication object table, and its RESET button resets the bus with a single press instead of a 20-second hold.
