Test conditions and notes7
- 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 0.1uf & 47uf 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. 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 http://www.meanwell.com)
- 5. Mounting holes M1 and M2 should be grounded for EMI purposes.
- 6. Heat Sink HS1,HS2 can not be shorted.
- 7. Touch current was measured from primary input to DC output.

FAQ
Can I use the MPT-45C for a 5V embedded controller with analog signal conditioning?
Yes. This model provides constant-voltage 5V output rated at 3A (0.4–5A current range) within 43.5W total rated power, and its product configuration includes 15V and -15V rails for mixed-signal boards. That makes it a practical fit for embedded control hardware that combines 5V logic with analog circuitry.
Is the MPT-45C suitable for industrial instrumentation or measurement electronics?
It can be a good match for instrumentation electronics that need regulated 5V logic power and use the 15V and -15V outputs shown in the product name. The constant-voltage design and 43.5W rating make it more appropriate for control and signal-processing assemblies than for higher-power 5V loads.
Can this power supply run a 5V automation control board inside a machine cabinet?
Yes, if the board is designed for constant-voltage 5V input and stays within the 5V output's 0.4–5A current range (3A rated) and 43.5W total rated power. Its compact 127 × 76 × 28 mm size also helps when space is limited inside a protected control enclosure.
Is the MPT-45C a good choice for low-power test or lab control electronics?
It is suitable for low-power electronic assemblies that need regulated 5V plus the 15V and -15V rails named for this model. With 43.5W total rated power and 3A rated on the 5V output, it fits lighter-duty control and analog support tasks better than larger 5V systems.
Can the MPT-45C be used in outdoor or harsh exposed locations?
The listed operating temperature is -10°C to +60°C (with derating per the derating curve), but no IP rating is provided in the specs. That points to indoor use or installation inside a protected enclosure rather than direct outdoor exposure.
How does the MPT-45C compare with nearby MPT 5V models?
Within the MPT-45 series, MPT-45A is 40.5W with 5V, 12V and -5V outputs, MPT-45B is 42.6W with 5V, 12V and -12V outputs, and MPT-45C is 43.5W with 5V, 15V and -15V outputs. All three rate the 5V output at 3A, so the main differences are the auxiliary rails and total rated power.
