Test conditions and notes7
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at normal input (B:24Vdc , C:48Vdc , D:110Vdc ) , 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. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 5. 3 seconds max., please refer to peak loading curves.
- 6. The power supply is considered as an independent unit, but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that the whole system complies with the 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. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than2000m(6500ft).

FAQ
Can I use the DDR-240D-48 to convert a 110V DC station battery to 48V for telecom equipment?
Yes. The DDR-240D-48 accepts 67.2-154V DC input and outputs a regulated 48V at 5A (240W). A 110V DC station battery falls squarely within its input range, making it suitable for powering 48V telecom racks, PoE switches, or communication gear from a utility-grade DC battery bank.
Is the DDR-240D-48 suitable for converting high-voltage DC from a solar array into 48V for a battery storage system?
Yes, as long as the solar source voltage stays within 67.2-154V DC. The DDR-240D-48 delivers a regulated 48V at up to 5A, which can feed a 48V battery management system or charge controller in hybrid or off-grid solar installations without requiring an AC conversion stage.
Can I use the DDR-240D-48 in a railway or traction power application?
Yes. Many railway auxiliary DC buses operate in the 72-110V range, which is within the DDR-240D-48's 67.2-154V input window. It meets EN50155 / IEC60571 (including IEC61373 shock & vibration) and EN50121-3-2 for EMC, complies with EN45545-2 fire protection, and offers a -40°C to +70°C operating range and 4KVdc I/O isolation for rolling stock cabinets or trackside signal enclosures.
Will the DDR-240D-48 function in an unventilated enclosure exposed to extreme cold?
Yes. The DDR-240D-48 is rated for operation from -40°C to +70°C (with derating at high temperatures per the derating curve). It will start and operate at temperatures as low as -40°C, which covers enclosed outdoor utility cabinets, cold-climate installations, and cold-room applications without requiring supplemental heating.
Can the DDR-240D-48 power 48V DC loads from a 125V DC UPS battery system?
Yes. A 125V DC battery bank falls within the 67.2-154V input range. The DDR-240D-48 provides a stable 48V output at up to 5A (240W), suitable for network switches, security systems, or emergency communication equipment that must stay online during mains failures.
What are the differences between the DDR-240B-48, DDR-240C-48, and DDR-240D-48?
All three output 240W at 48V/5A and share the same DIN rail housing. The DDR-240B-48 accepts 16.8-33.6V DC input, the DDR-240C-48 accepts 33.6-67.2V DC input, and the DDR-240D-48 accepts 67.2-154V DC input. The letter suffix (B, C, D) indicates the input voltage tier, so select the variant that matches your source DC bus voltage.
