  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 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. 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  4. 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. 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
