Test conditions and notes8
- 1. All parameters are specified at 230VAC input, rated load, 25℃ 70% RH ambient.
- 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz by using a 12" twisted pair terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance: includes set up tolerance, line regulation, load regulation.
- 4. Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
- 5. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
- 6. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 7. 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).
- 8. 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 )

FAQ
What are the main electrical ratings of the Mean Well GST120A20-P1M?
This AC-DC industrial adaptor is rated for 120W total output. It provides 20V DC at up to 6A, which makes it suitable for equipment that requires that exact output voltage and current capacity.
What input voltage range does the GST120A20-P1M support?
The GST120A20-P1M accepts a universal AC input range of 85 to 264VAC, and it also lists a 120 to 370VDC input range. That gives it flexibility for use across many standard power systems.
What kinds of equipment is this 20V desktop power adapter typically used for?
This model is generally suited to commercial or industrial devices that require a regulated 20V DC supply at up to 6A. Buyers commonly consider this type of external adaptor for electronics that need a higher-power enclosed supply rather than an open-frame power supply.
Is the GST120A20-P1M an energy-efficient power supply?
The datasheet lists a typical efficiency of 89% for the P1M version at 230VAC and rated load. Power factor is typically above 0.93 at 230VAC and above 0.97 at 115VAC at full load.
What protection features are built into this adapter?
The GST120A20-P1M includes overload, over voltage, and over temperature protection. Its overload protection is specified as hiccup mode with auto-recovery, while over voltage and over temperature shut down the output until the unit is re-powered.
Can this power adapter be used in demanding temperature conditions?
The specification lists a working temperature range of -30 to +70°C, with output derating at higher ambient temperatures per the derating curve. The -40 to +85°C figure is the storage temperature range, not the operating range.
What should I check for connector compatibility before ordering?
You should confirm that your device matches the output rating and the exact connector version supplied for this model. The provided product information includes both the model title and a detailed connector specification, so connector compatibility should be verified before purchase.
What certifications and warranty does the GST120A20-P1M have?
This model lists safety approvals including UL62368-1, CSA C22.2 No. 62368-1, TUV BS EN/EN62368-1, BSMI CNS15598-1, CCC GB4943.1, PSE J62368-1 and AS/NZS 62368.1. It also lists EMC compliance to standards such as EN55032 Class B and FCC Part 15.
