Test conditions and notes6

1.All parameters are specified at normal input(A:12Vdc, B:24Vdc, C:48Vdc), 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.Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
4.Load regulation is measured from 10% to 100% rated load.
5.The final equipment must be re-confirm that it still meet EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.”(as available on http://www.meanwell.com)
6.An external input filter capacitor is required if the module has to meet BS EN/EN61000-4-4, BS EN/EN61000-4-5. The filter capacitor Power Mate suggest: 220uF/100V.

FAQ

Can I use the SLC03A-05 to power 5V logic in an industrial control panel?

This model is a constant voltage DC-DC converter with a 5V output and 3W power rating, so it fits low-power 5V control electronics. Its 9-18VDC input range also suits systems operating within that low-voltage input window.

Is the SLC03A-05 suitable for embedded 5V boards inside compact equipment?

It is well suited to compact embedded use where board space and weight matter, because the housing is 22.1 × 13.8 × 8.55 mm and 0.0045 kg. The converter provides constant voltage 5V output with a 3W rating for low-power embedded loads.

Can this converter be used for 5V automation sensors or monitoring circuits?

It can fit low-power automation or monitoring circuits that need regulated 5V constant voltage output. The 3W power rating and 9-18VDC input range make it a fit for small auxiliary circuits rather than higher-power loads.

Is the SLC03A-05 appropriate for cold or hot equipment environments?

The specified operating temperature range is -40°C to +85°C, with load derating at the upper end per the derating curve, which supports use across very cold and high-heat equipment environments. That temperature range is broad, but the listed specs do not include an IP rating.

Is the SLC03A-05 suitable for outdoor installations?

The operating temperature range is -40°C to +85°C, but no IP rating is listed in the provided specs. Without an IP rating, the environmental sealing level is not defined by this data, so outdoor suitability is not established here.

How does the SLC03A-05 compare with the other SLC03A models?

Within the SLC03A series, the SLC03A-05 is 3W with 5V output and 600mA output current. The SLC03A-12 is 3W with 12V output and 250mA output current, and the SLC03A-15 is 3W with 15V output and 200mA output current. All three share the same 9-18VDC input range.
