Overview

GEM18I12-P1J is the 12V output model of this series: rated current 1.5A, typical efficiency 84%.

GEM18I is a highly reliable, 18W wall-mounted style single-output green medical adaptor series, which is compact and convenient for carry. This product is equipped with an interchangeable AC plug (4 types, including European type, USA type, U.K. type and Australian type) that makes it very suitable for businessmen to use in the major countries around the globe. GEM18I is a class II power unit (no FG), accepting the input range from 80VAC to 264VAC that it can satisfy the demands for various types of medical electrical devices. The circuitry design meets the international medical standards (2*MOPP), having an ultra low leakage current (<100μA), fitting the medical devices in direct electrical contact with the patients. With the working efficiency up to 87% and the extremely low no-load power consumption below 0.075W, GEM18I is compliant with the latest USA energy regulation EISA 2007/DoE(Level Ⅵ) and EU ErP. The supreme feature allows the adaptor to save the energy when it is under either the operating mode or the standby mode. The entire series is approved for international safety regulations; moreover, it adopts the 94V-0 flame retardant plastic case that it can effectively prevent users from electric hazard.

Test conditions and notes8

1.All parameters are specified at 230VAC input, rated load, 25℃ 70% RH ambient.
2.DC voltage: The output voltage set at point measure by plug terminal & 50% load.
3.Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz by using a 12" twisted pair terminated with a 0.1μf & 47μf capacitor.
4.Tolerance: includes set up tolerance, line regulation, load regulation.
5.Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
6.Load regulation is measured from 10% to 100% rated load.
7.Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
8.The power supply is considered as an independent unit, but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that the whole system complies with the EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on http://www.meanwell.com)

FAQ

Can I use the GEM18I12-P1J for a 12V PLC accessory or control module?

Yes, if the device requires constant 12V DC and stays within 1.5A and 18W. This makes it relevant for smaller 12V control accessories and support modules rather than larger 12V automation loads.

Is this a good power supply for 12V embedded systems or interface boards?

It is intended for constant-voltage 12V output and can supply up to 1.5A with 18W total power. That fits many compact 12V embedded boards, interface electronics, and low-power control assemblies within that rating.

Can the GEM18I12-P1J power small 12V LED or signage electronics?

It can be used where the load needs constant 12V and the total draw is no more than 1.5A or 18W. For small 12V LED or display-related electronics, the key check is that the full load remains inside the stated 12V / 1.5A / 18W output.

Will this 12V adapter work in mixed-voltage facilities or international AC environments?

The input range is 80-264VAC, so the product is designed to accept a broad AC input range. That is useful for equipment deployed in facilities that do not all use the same AC mains voltage.

Can GEM18I12-P1J be used outdoors or in unprotected areas?

The operating temperature is rated at -20°C to +50°C (refer to the derating curve), and the adaptor is rated IP21. IP21 does not provide outdoor or water-ingress protection, so it should not be used outdoors or in unprotected areas.
