Test conditions and notes6
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, 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. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. All the EMC tests are been executed by mounting the unit on a 360mm*360mm metal plate with 1mm of thickness. Radiation testing requires adding 13*26*30NIZN magnetic loops or buckles to the battery output wire. 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. This power supply does not meet the harmonic current requirements outlined by BS EN/EN61000-3-2. Please do not use this power supply under the following conditions: a) the end-devices is used within the European Union, and b) the end-devices is connected to public mains supply with 220Vac or greater rated nominal voltage, and c) the power supply is: - installed in end-devices with average or continuous input power greater than 75W, or - belong to part of a lighting system Exception: Power supplies used within the following end-devices do not need to fulfill BS EN/EN61000-3-2 a) professional equipment with a total rated input power greater than 1000W; b) symmetrically controlled heating elements with a rated power less than or equal to 200W
- 6. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).

FAQ
What is the Mean Well LAD-240C designed for?
The Mean Well LAD-240C is a 240W security and fire alarm power supply with a built-in battery charger and UPS function. It is intended for systems that need regulated 41.5V output along with battery-backed power support and status monitoring.
What are the main electrical specifications of the LAD-240C?
This model is rated for 240W output with a 41.5V output voltage and 4.78A rated current. Its AC input range is 90 to 132VAC or 180 to 264VAC by switch, with a default setting at 230VAC, and it also supports 240 to 370VDC input.
Does the LAD-240C support battery backup functions?
Yes, the LAD-240C includes a built-in battery charger and UPS function for backup operation. It also includes a forced start UPS mode, selected by shorting CN2 pins 7 and 8.
What status signals and protections are available on the LAD-240C?
The unit provides TTL status signals for AC OK, battery disconnect, battery reverse polarity, battery low, battery full, and discharge. It also includes protection against overload, over voltage, over temperature, battery low voltage (cutoff at 32V±0.5V), and battery reverse polarity without damage.
Can the LAD-240C be used in demanding temperature conditions?
The LAD-240C is specified for operation from -20°C to +60°C, with output derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve. That wide operating range makes it suitable for environments where power equipment may be exposed to both low and elevated ambient temperatures.
What certifications and standards does the LAD-240C meet?
This model is approved to UL62368-1, BS EN/EN62368-1, AS/NZS62368.1, and EAC TP TC 004 safety standards. Its design also refers to GB 17945-2010, and it meets EMC standards including EN55032 Class A and multiple EN61000 series requirements.
What makes the LAD-240C a good choice where space is limited?
The LAD-240C has a low-profile design with a height of 30mm. Its compact 215 x 115 x 30mm form factor helps it fit into space-constrained equipment layouts while still delivering 240W output.
