Description
Description
The MEAN WELL NSP-500 series is a 500W high-reliability AC/DC enclosed power supply designed for demanding multi-industry applications, including industrial automation, mechanical systems, security, telecommunications, PoE power sourcing, medical devices, and charging equipment. Featuring a universal 85–305VAC input with built-in active PFC and efficiency up to 95%, it provides stable, energy-efficient performance with low no-load consumption under 0.75W. The compact 199×99×41 mm housing integrates forced-air cooling with a DC fan, 200% peak power capability, remote control, remote sense, and a DC OK signal for enhanced system monitoring. With extremely low leakage current (<350μA), 2×MOPP medical safety compliance, and certifications across ITE, medical, household, industrial, and energy converter standards, the NSP-500 series delivers robust, reliable operation in harsh environments and wide temperature ranges from –40°C to +85°C.

Frequently Asked Questions
What output does the NSP-500-36 provide?
The Mean Well NSP-500-36 is a 500.4W enclosed AC/DC power supply with a 36V DC output rated at 13.9A. It is designed for applications that need a higher-voltage regulated output in a compact industrial power supply format.
What types of applications is the NSP-500-36 intended for?
This model is intended for demanding multi-industry equipment such as industrial automation, mechanical systems, telecommunications, PoE power sourcing, security systems, medical devices, and charging equipment. Its high reliability design and broad certification coverage make it suitable for OEM and industrial use where uptime and compliance matter.
Is the NSP-500-36 suitable for harsh or wide-temperature environments?
Yes. The NSP-500-36 is specified for operation from -40°C to +85°C, with derating required above +60°C. It also uses a conformal coated PCB and is designed for reliable operation in challenging industrial environments.
How efficient is the NSP-500-36 power supply?
The NSP-500 series delivers efficiency up to 95% and low no-load power consumption below 0.75W. That helps reduce wasted energy and heat in systems that run continuously or need strong power-performance efficiency.
What makes the NSP-500-36 different from a standard enclosed power supply?
Compared with a basic enclosed PSU, the NSP-500-36 adds high-reliability features such as active PFC, remote ON/OFF control, remote sense, a DC OK signal, and 200% peak power capability on 12V to 60V models. It also carries broad safety and EMC certifications, including 2xMOPP medical safety compliance and very low leakage current under 350μA.
Can the NSP-500-36 be used in regulated or sensitive equipment categories?
Yes. The product is certified to multiple standards covering ITE, medical, household, industrial, laboratory, and energy converter applications, including IEC/EN/UL 62368-1 and 60601-1. Its low leakage current and 2xMOPP medical safety compliance make it relevant for systems where stricter safety requirements apply.
What protective and monitoring features are included in the NSP-500-36?
The NSP-500-36 includes short circuit, overload, overvoltage, and overtemperature protection. It also supports system-level monitoring and control through a DC OK signal, remote ON/OFF, and remote sense with 0.3V compensation.
