Test conditions and notes9

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230Vac 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 0.1uF & 47uF parallel capacitor.
3. Tolerance: includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
4. Derating may be need under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
5. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft)..
6. 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)
7. The Regulatory Compliance Mark (RCM) is applied on a voluntary basis. The equipment meets the relevant IEC or AS/NZS standards, or AS/NZS 3820 where applicable. The use of the RCM mark complies with AS/NZS 4417.1.
8. Some factory or model may not have the BIS logo, please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
9. MOPP is suitable for 100-240Vac input only.

FAQ

What is the Mean Well NSP-500-15 designed for?

The NSP-500-15 is a 501W enclosed AC/DC power supply built for demanding multi-industry equipment. It suits applications such as industrial automation, mechanical systems, security equipment, telecommunications, medical devices, and charging equipment. Its high-reliability design makes it a fit for systems that need stable output and broad standards coverage.

What output does the NSP-500-15 provide?

This model provides a 15V DC output with a rated current of 33.4A. Its listed power rating is 501W, which places it in the high-power enclosed supply category for industrial and commercial equipment. It is the 15V version within the NSP-500 series.

What input range does the NSP-500-15 support?

The NSP-500-15 accepts a universal 85-305VAC input and also supports 120-431VDC input. It includes built-in active power factor correction, which helps support efficient operation across a wide input range. This makes it suitable for equipment deployed across varied power environments.

Is the NSP-500-15 suitable for harsh or wide-temperature environments?

Yes. The NSP-500-15 is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C, with output derating at higher ambient temperatures according to the datasheet's derating curve. It is intended for reliable performance in demanding environments.

What makes the NSP-500-15 a high-reliability power supply?

This model combines 92% typical efficiency, no-load power consumption of 0.75W when the output is switched off by remote control (about 3W with it on), and a full protection set including short circuit, overload, overvoltage, and overtemperature protection. It also includes remote ON/OFF control, remote sense, and a DC OK signal for system monitoring. These features support stable operation in applications where uptime and status visibility matter.

Can the NSP-500-15 be used in medical or regulated equipment?

The NSP-500-15 is specified with earth leakage current below 350 microamps and 2xMOPP primary-to-secondary isolation (MOPP applies to 100-240VAC input). It is also certified to standards including IEC/EN 60601-1, ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1 and IEC/EN/UL 62368-1, along with additional household, laboratory, and power converter standards. Buyers should still confirm the full end-system compliance requirements for their specific device.

Does the NSP-500-15 support peak power demands?

Yes. In the NSP-500 series, the 12V to 60V models provide peak power of 1000W for 5 seconds. For the NSP-500-15 that means up to 66.7A, about 200% of its rated power, for 5 seconds.

What cooling and physical size should buyers expect from the NSP-500-15?

The NSP-500-15 is cooled by a built-in fan with temperature-controlled ON/OFF, with a typical fan noise of 45 dB. Its compact housing measures 199 x 99 x 41 mm and the product weight is listed as 1 kg. That combination helps it fit higher-power applications where space efficiency still matters.
