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 0.1μF & 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. 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. Mounting holes M1 and M2 should be grounded for EMI purposes.
- 6. Heat Sink HS1,HS2 can not be shorted.
- 7. 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
Can I use the PT-45C for a 5V controller that also needs +15V and -15V rails?
The PT-45C is a constant voltage power supply with a 5V output rated at 3A and a total power rating of 43.5W. Its product configuration includes 5V, 15V, and -15V rails, which suits control or signal-processing hardware built around those voltages.
Is the PT-45C suitable for embedded or industrial electronics with bipolar analog sections?
This model can fit assemblies that need a regulated 5V rail alongside +15V and -15V rails in the same supply family. The 5V output is specified at 3A, with total power rated at 43.5W.
Can the PT-45C be used in compact automation or test equipment?
The housing measures 127.0 x 76.0 x 28.0 mm and the unit weighs 0.21 kg, so it is well suited to smaller enclosed equipment layouts. It is intended for applications needing a 5V 3A supply in a 43.5W platform.
Is the PT-45C okay for exposed outdoor use?
The listed operating temperature range is -10°C to +60°C, but the specs provided do not show an IP rating. That makes it better suited to indoor equipment or protected enclosures than to direct outdoor exposure.
How does the PT-45C stack up against the other PT family options?
The PT-45 sheet lists PT-45A at 40.5W with 5V 3A, 12V 2A and -5V 0.3A outputs, and PT-45B at 42.6W with 5V 3A, 12V 2A and -12V 0.3A. PT-45C is rated at 43.5W with 5V 3A, 15V 1.6A and -15V 0.3A outputs, so it has the highest rated power of the three and is the only one with ±15V rails.
