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 0.1μF & 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. 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. 6. No load power consumption<0.5W when RC- & RC+ (CN100 pin1,2) 0 ~ 0.8V or short.
  7. 7. When the input voltage is less than 40VAC, the SPS may exhibit degradation of performance. The final product manufacturers must re-confirm this deviation that does not affect basic safety or essential performance.
  8. 8. 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 )
  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 MSP-450-36 for 36V industrial automation equipment?

Yes, this unit is a constant voltage 36V supply rated at 450W and 12.5A. That makes it a practical choice for industrial automation equipment designed around a 36V DC bus.

Is the MSP-450-36 a good match for 36V motion-control or actuator systems?

It can be, provided the equipment is specified for a 36V constant voltage source and stays within 12.5A and 450W. The output profile is better aligned with fixed-voltage 36V devices than with loads that need a different DC rail.

Would this 36V model work in industrial test stands or lab equipment?

Yes, the MSP-450-36 is suited to test stands or lab systems that require regulated 36V DC at up to 12.5A. Its 85-264VAC input range is also useful when equipment may be deployed across different AC mains environments.

Can the MSP-450-36 power a 36V control cabinet system with multiple DC loads?

It can support a 36V control cabinet if the combined load stays within 450W and 12.5A. Because it is a constant voltage model, it is intended for equipment that expects a stable 36V output rail.

Is the MSP-450-36 suitable for indoor or outdoor installations?

The operating temperature range is -40°C to +70°C, with output derating at higher ambient temperatures per the derating curve. No IP rating is provided in the product specs, so the listing does not define it as an outdoor-rated enclosure.
