Test conditions and notes6
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25 of ambient temperature.
  2. 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. 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  4. 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please check the derating curve for more details.
  5. 5. The power supply 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 360mm*360mm 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." (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
  6. 6. 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).

FAQ

Can I use the EPS-120-48 for a 48V industrial control panel?

Yes, this model is a constant-voltage 48V supply rated for 1.75A and 84W with convection cooling, or 2.5A and 120W with a 10CFM fan, which fits control-panel loads that require a fixed 48V DC output. Its 80-264VAC input range also suits sites that may see different AC line conditions.

Is the EPS-120-48 suitable for small 48V telecom or networking equipment?

It can fit compact 48V devices as long as the load stays within 1.75A and 84W with convection cooling, or 2.5A and 120W with a 10CFM fan. Buyers commonly use this output class where a stable 48V constant-voltage source is required rather than a lower-voltage rail.

Can this power supply run a 48V embedded or automation subsystem?

Yes, if the subsystem is designed for 48V constant-voltage input and does not exceed 1.75A with convection cooling, or 2.5A with a 10CFM fan. The compact 101.6 x 50.8 x 29 mm size can also help where board-level or enclosure space is limited.

Is the EPS-120-48 a good fit for indoor or outdoor use?

The operating range is -30°C to +70°C, with load derating at higher ambient temperatures per the derating curve. No IP rating is listed here, so it is better matched to protected indoor equipment or an enclosure that provides the required environmental protection.

How does the EPS-120-48 compare with other EPS series 48V models?

This spec sheet covers the EPS-120 series, which offers 12V at 7A, 15V at 5.6A, 24V at 3.5A, 27V at 3.15A and 48V at 1.75A with convection cooling (84W, or 85W for the 27V model). With a 10CFM fan the ratings rise to 120W (121.5W for 27V). The EPS-120-48 is the 48V option, delivering 2.5A with the fan.
