Test conditions and notes9
  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 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
  3. 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  4. 4. Length of set up time is measured at cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the setup time.
  5. 5. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to the “STATIC CHARACTERISTICS” for more details.
  6. 6. The power supply shall be regarded as one component of the final system. The EMC performance will be affected by the complete system installation and/or configuration, the final system manufacturers must re-verify overall EMC directive with the complete installation and/or configuration. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
  7. 7. The water protection level test for the IP68 rating is performed 1000mm below the surface of the water for 1 month.
  8. 8. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
  9. 9. 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 HEP-480-24 for a 24V industrial automation system?

Yes, this is a constant-voltage 24V supply rated for up to 480W and 20A. It fits industrial automation, control, or embedded 24V equipment that is designed for a fixed 24V DC source and remains within those limits.

Is the HEP-480-24 suitable for powering multiple 24V DC loads in one system?

It can be used where the combined 24V load does not exceed 20A or 480W. That makes it relevant for larger 24V control systems, distributed embedded electronics, or industrial subsystems that need higher current capacity at 24V.

Can this model be used for 24V sensors, controllers, and communications hardware in harsh-duty equipment?

Yes, if those 24V loads fit within the supply's 480W and 20A output rating. The IP68 rating, 10G vibration tolerance, and -55°C to +65°C operating range (with load derating at higher temperatures) support use in harsher industrial or mobile-equipment environments.

Is the HEP-480-24 appropriate for outdoor exposure or wet industrial areas?

This version is rated IP68, so it is the more sealed option in the pair. It is also specified for operation from -55°C to +65°C, with load derating at higher temperatures, which supports outdoor or washdown-adjacent conditions when the rest of the system is designed to the same environmental level.

How does the HEP-480-24 compare with other 24V models in the HEP family?

On the HEP-480 sheet, the 24V counterpart is the HEP-480-24A, also 480W and 20A, which is the A-type with built-in potentiometers for 20.4-25.2V voltage and 10-20A current adjustment and an IP65 rating. The HEP-480-24 is the Blank-Type with an IP68 rating and no adjustment; the series also offers 36V, 48V and 54V versions at about 480W.
