Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Mean Well DRS-480-36 designed for?
The DRS-480-36 is an all-in-one intelligent security power unit that combines a 480W power supply, DC-UPS, battery charger, and status monitoring in one compact DIN rail form factor. It is suited to security and related backup-power applications where continuous 36V DC output and battery-supported operation are important.
What are the main electrical ratings of the DRS-480-36?
This model is rated for 480W output at 36V DC with a rated current of 10.2A. It accepts a wide 90 to 305VAC input range, with 127 to 431VDC also supported on the input side.
How is the DRS-480-36 different from a standard DIN rail power supply?
Unlike a standard DIN rail PSU that only provides DC output, the DRS-480-36 also integrates DC-UPS functionality, battery charging, and status monitoring. It includes relay contacts and LED indicators for AC fail, battery low, charger fail, and DC-OK, making it more suitable for monitored critical-power applications.
Is the DRS-480-36 compatible with different battery types?
Yes, the DRS-480-36 is suitable for both lead acid and lithium-ion batteries. It also supports selectable 2-stage or 3-stage charging, and the charging current is adjustable from 20% to 100% by VR.
Can the DRS-480-36 be used in demanding temperature conditions?
This model has a working temperature range of -30 to +70 degrees C. It uses free air convection cooling and includes over-temperature protection with auto derating, which helps it operate in tougher industrial and security environments.
What monitoring and communication features does the DRS-480-36 include?
The DRS-480-36 includes built-in ModBus protocol support, with CANBus available as an option. It also provides Form C relay contacts and LED status indication for key power and battery conditions, which is useful where remote status visibility matters.
What protection features are built into the DRS-480-36?
This unit includes protection for short circuit, overload, over voltage, over temperature with auto derating, battery reverse polarity, and battery cut off. Its overload protection is specified at 105% to 135% of rated output power, and over-voltage protection is specified at 135% to 155% of rated output voltage.
What approvals and warranty does the DRS-480-36 have?
The DRS-480-36 is approved to UL62368-1 and RCM AS/NZS 62368.1 safety standards. It also carries a 3-year warranty from Mean Well.
