Test conditions and notes8

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. As a constant power output, the driver will auto derating the current limitation when voltage raise above rated voltage(12V,24V,48V,96V) in order to remain 1800W output. On the other hand, when voltage is below rated voltage(12V,24V,48V,96V), the maximum current limitation will set at Max input current.
5. The efficiency is measured at 75% load.
6. The ambient temperature derating of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).
7. CANBus model only.
8. During withstandstandards voltage and isolation resistance testing, the screw "A" shall be temporarily removed, and shall be istalled back after the testing.

FAQ

What is the BIC-2200-12 typically used for?

The Mean Well BIC-2200-12 is typically used in high-power 12V DC systems that need a bidirectional power supply with energy recycle capability. With 2160W of rated power and 180A output current, it fits large battery-based DC systems, backup-power platforms, and other heavy-duty 12V applications that need substantial current capacity.

Is the BIC-2200-12 suitable for large 12V battery or DC bus systems?

Yes. The BIC-2200-12 provides 12V at up to 180A and 2160W, which makes it suitable for high-capacity 12V battery-backed or DC bus applications where a much larger output is needed than standard enclosed power supplies can provide.

Can the BIC-2200-12 be used in systems that need fast transfer between AC and DC operation?

Yes. The specification lists a typical bidirection switch time of 1ms between AC/DC and DC/AC, which makes it relevant for systems where rapid transition behavior is an important requirement.

Does the BIC-2200-12 support higher-power system scaling?

Yes. The BIC-2200-12 has built-in active current sharing for up to 9 units in parallel, with total current limited to rated current per unit × number of units × 0.95, so multiple units can extend capacity beyond a single 2160W supply.

Will the BIC-2200-12 run from common AC mains input ranges?

It operates from 180-264VAC, which covers common 230V-class AC mains environments and other installations within that range. It is not positioned as a universal 90-264VAC unit, so input conditions should match the published specification.

Is the BIC-2200-12 intended for direct outdoor exposure?

The current product data does not show a waterproof IP rating, so the BIC-2200-12 should be treated as an enclosed indoor or cabinet-installed power supply rather than a unit for direct outdoor exposure. Its working temperature is listed as -30°C to +70°C (the derating curve is stricter for the 12V model), but enclosure protection is still required.

How does the BIC-2200-12 compare with other BIC-2200 models?

The BIC-2200-12 provides 2160W at 12V and 180A. Other models in the same family shift the output voltage and current, including 24V at 90A, 48V at 45A, and 96V at 22.5A, while keeping the same 2160W rating. The main selection point is the DC bus voltage your system is built around.

What are the main reliability features of the BIC-2200-12?

Key published specifications include 90% typical AC-to-DC efficiency (90.5% DC to AC), active current sharing for up to 9 units, and an MTBF of 462.9K hrs min. The protection set includes islanding protection, short circuit protection, over-voltage protection, overload protection, and over-temperature protection, plus a Fault signal for AC fail.
