Test conditions and notes5
- 1.All parameters are specified at normal input(A:12Vdc, B:24Vdc, C:48Vdc), rated load, 25℃ 70% RH ambient.
- 2.Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz by using a 12" twisted pair terminated with a 0.1μf & 47μf capacitor.
- 3.Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
- 4.Load regulation is measured from 10% to 100% rated load for SCWN06, 25% to 100% rated load for DCWN06.
- 5.The final equipment must be re-confirm that it still meet 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)

FAQ
Can I use the SCWN06C-12 to power a 12V device from a 48V nominal DC system?
Yes, this model converts 36-72V input to a constant 12V output. With 6W total power and 0.5A output current, it is suitable for low-power 12V control, sensing, or interface loads within that range.
Is the SCWN06C-12 suitable for small 12V automation electronics in telecom or industrial enclosures?
It is suitable where a regulated 12V rail is needed from a higher-voltage DC bus and the load stays within 0.5A. The compact 31.8 × 20.3 × 10.2 mm body and 0.0125 kg weight also help in dense enclosure layouts.
Can this converter power a 12V relay logic or monitoring circuit on a 36-72V bus?
It can support a 12V monitoring or relay logic circuit as long as the total output does not exceed 6W and 0.5A. That makes it appropriate for light-duty 12V electronics rather than higher-current 12V loads.
What is the difference between the SCWN06C-12 and the other SCWN06C converters?
Each SCWN06C version is rated at 6W with 36-72V input, but the output changes by model. The SCWN06C-03 provides 3.3V at 1.2A, the SCWN06C-05 provides 5V at 1A, the SCWN06C-12 provides 12V at 0.5A, and the SCWN06C-15 provides 15V at 0.4A.
Is the SCWN06C-12 appropriate for wide-temperature or outdoor applications?
Its operating temperature range is -40°C to +90°C, so the temperature rating supports use in challenging equipment environments. No IP rating is shown in the provided specs, so outdoor exposure protection is not established from this data alone.
