Test conditions and notes11
- 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. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 5. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m is needed for operating altitude greater than 2000m(6500ft)
- 6. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. 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)
- 7. Please refer to derating curve.
- 8. R type efficiency slightly less than the Blank type, according to the actual measurement.
- 9. Inrush current parameter has 10% tolerance.
- 10. RCM is on voluntary basis and meets relevant IEC or AS/NZS standards complying with AS/NZS 4417.1.
- 11. Some models or factory may not have the BIS marking , please contact MEAN WELL’s sales for more details.

FAQ
Can I use the UHP-500-5 for a high-current 5V logic or embedded computing system?
Yes, this model is intended for applications that need a constant 5V rail at high current. It provides up to 80A and 400W, which makes it suitable for dense 5V embedded and logic loads within those limits.
Is the UHP-500-5 a fit for an industrial test rack powering multiple 5V devices?
It can be a strong fit for centralized 5V test or production fixtures. The supply delivers constant 5V output with up to 80A available, allowing one source to support a larger combined 5V load up to 400W.
Would this power supply work for 5V control electronics in an automation or OEM assembly?
Yes, if the assembly is designed for a constant 5V input rail. The unit is rated at 400W and 80A, so it is aimed at high-current 5V electronics rather than lower-current control circuits.
Can the UHP-500-5 be used for 5V LED, display, or digital signage electronics?
It can be used where the system requires a constant 5V source and the total load stays within 400W or 80A. That makes it more appropriate for larger 5VDC electronics groupings than smaller 5V supplies.
Is this model suitable for outdoor or exposed installations?
The provided specifications include an operating temperature range of -30°C to +70°C, but they do not include an IP rating. That means the listed data supports temperature planning, while outdoor or wet-location suitability is not defined by the provided specs.
How does the UHP-500-5 compare with the other UHP-500 output versions?
The listed UHP-500 models are 500.4W at 12V and 41.7A, 501W at 15V and 33.4A, 501.6W at 24V and 20.9A, 500.4W at 36V and 13.9A, 501.6W at 48V and 10.45A, 400W at 5V and 80A, and 336W at 4.2V and 80A. This version is the 5V option, combining the highest current shown at 80A with a 400W output rating.
