Test conditions and notes7
  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. Fan always on for 3.3~5V,Fan ON/OFF control for 12~48V.
  6. 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. 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).

FAQ

What loads at 5V can the RSP-500-5 support?

The RSP-500-5 provides 5V at 90A (450W), suitable for high-current 5V bus applications including legacy logic systems, point-of-load distribution in embedded computing racks, and industrial HMI display arrays requiring a stable 5V feed.

What is the temperature range of the RSP-500-5?

The RSP-500-5 is rated for -30°C to +70°C ambient (refer to the derating curve). It is an enclosed type unit with UL62368-1, TÜV BS EN/EN62368-1, AS/NZS 62368.1, EAC, CCC, BSMI and BIS safety approvals.

How does the RSP-500-5 compare to the RSP-500-4 and RSP-500-12 at different voltages?

All RSP-500 units share the 230.0 × 127.0 × 40.5 mm chassis and 85-264VAC input. The RSP-500-4 delivers 360W at 90A, the RSP-500-5 delivers 450W at 90A, and the RSP-500-12 delivers 500.4W at 41.7A. Current is highest on the low-voltage units; the RSP-500-12 provides higher total power at lower current.
