Over 15 years experience of providing support of MEAN WELL Power Supplies
Overview
DUPS20 is the model of this series: rated current 20A.
The DUPS20 is a 20A DIN rail type DC-UPS module, and it is paired with a power supply and an external battery to achieve the backup function. When the AC mains fails or is interrupted, the load will be immediately connected to the battery pack to avoid interruption and to ensure the continuous operation of the entire system (the operating time depends on the capacity of the battery pack). The main features of DUPS20 include: fast installation, small size (only 40mm wide)suitability for 24V battery packs and various capacities of 4AH~135AH, 2A battery charging current, low voltage disconnect for battery protection and more. The product is suitable for use in data centers, security systems, emergency lighting, wireless communication UPS, central monitoring systems, etc.

Test conditions and notes5
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at normal input(24V) , rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Every 30 seconds, unit will test the battery.If the testing result is faulty, unit will turn on "Battery Fail" relay contact and "Red LED" indicator.
- 3. Derating may be needed over high ambient temperature. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 4. 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).
- 5. The unit 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 360*720mm 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."

FAQ
What does the Mean Well DUPS20 do?
The Mean Well DUPS20 is a DIN rail DC-UPS module designed to maintain power to a 24V DC load when AC mains power is lost or interrupted. It works with a separate power supply and external battery so critical equipment can continue operating without interruption.
What types of systems is the DUPS20 commonly used in?
This model is suited to applications that need continuous 24V DC power during outages. Typical examples include data centers, security systems, emergency lighting, wireless communication UPS applications, and central monitoring systems.
What battery range is supported by the DUPS20?
The DUPS20 is intended for 24V lead-acid battery packs (2 x 12V in series or 1 x 24V) and supports a wide capacity range from 4Ah to 135Ah. Actual backup runtime depends on the battery capacity and characteristics and on the load being supported.
What are the key electrical specifications of the DUPS20?
This model is rated for 20A with an output voltage range of 21 to 29V DC. It also provides a 2A battery charging current and cuts off battery discharging by relay when the battery drops below 21V to help protect the battery.
Is the DUPS20 a good choice where panel space is limited?
Yes. One of the notable features of the DUPS20 is its narrow DIN rail form factor, with a width of only 40mm, which helps in compact control cabinet layouts.
What operating temperatures can the DUPS20 handle?
The DUPS20 has an operating temperature range of -30°C to 70°C, with load derating needed at higher ambient temperatures (see the derating curve). That makes it suitable for a broad range of industrial environments, provided the rest of the system is also rated for the same conditions.
