Test conditions and notes6
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 24,48,110VDC input, 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. Strongly recommended that external output capacitance should not exceed 5000uF. (Only for: RSD-100-5 / -12)
- 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. 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 RSD-100B-24 to derive a regulated 24V DC rail from a 24V battery or DC source?
Yes, this model accepts a 16.8~31.2VDC input range and delivers a regulated 24V DC output. It is rated for 4.2A and 100.8W, so it fits moderate-power 24V loads in battery-backed or DC-bus systems.
Is the RSD-100B-24 a fit for PLCs, sensors, or industrial controls that require 24V?
It can be suitable when the connected equipment specifically requires a constant 24V rail and total demand stays within 4.2A and 100.8W. That makes it relevant for many automation, control, and instrumentation applications built around 24V DC.
Would this converter work in mobile equipment or transport platforms that distribute 24V to subsystems?
Yes, provided the input source stays within 16.8~31.2VDC and the downstream 24V load remains within 100.8W. Its -40°C to +55°C full-load rating (up to +70°C with derating or an external base plate) and 5G vibration rating with IEC61373 compliance support use in more demanding mobile environments.
Can the RSD-100B-24 be used for 24V communications or embedded equipment inside an enclosure?
It is suitable for enclosed 24V DC systems that need a regulated supply from a 16.8~31.2VDC input source. The converter provides up to 4.2A at 24V and has compact dimensions of 161.0 x 68.0 x 36.0 mm.
Is the RSD-100B-24 suitable for outdoor cabinets or exposed installations?
It operates from -40°C to +55°C without derating, and up to +70°C at 60% load by free air convection or at full load when mounted on an external base plate (EN50155 TX class). However, there is no listed IP rating, so it should be housed in a suitable enclosure rather than used directly in exposed outdoor or wet conditions.
What is the difference between the RSD-100B-24 and the other RSD-100B models?
The RSD-100B family includes RSD-100B-5 at 100W, 5V, 20A; RSD-100B-12 at 100.8W, 12V, 8.4A; and RSD-100B-24 at 100.8W, 24V, 4.2A. The main difference is the output voltage, with current adjusted accordingly across the three versions.
