Test conditions and notes10
  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 0.1uf & 47uf 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 static characteristics for more details.
  5. 5. A-Type only.
  6. 6. Length of set up time is measured at cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
  7. 7. The power supply is considered as a component that will be operated in combination with final equipment. Since EMC performance will be affected by the complete installation, the final equipment manufacturers must re-qualify EMC Directive on the complete installation again. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
  8. 8. The water protection level test for the IP68 rating is performed 1000mm below the surface of the water for 1 month.
  9. 9. Refer to warranty statement.
  10. 10. 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 HEP-240-12 for 12V industrial control hardware?

Yes, this model delivers 12V constant-voltage output at up to 16A and 192W, which suits 12V industrial control hardware designed for that power range. It is appropriate when the equipment requires a 12V DC bus rather than 24V or 48V.

Is the HEP-240-12 suitable for embedded systems or low-voltage automation devices?

It can be a fit for embedded and low-voltage automation equipment that needs a 12V constant-voltage source and does not exceed 16A or 192W. The wide 90-264VAC input range (277VAC operational, also 128-370VDC) is also useful where the incoming AC supply may vary between sites.

Can this power supply support 12V sensors, controllers, or monitoring equipment in one system?

Yes, if the combined 12V load stays within 192W and 16A, this supply can support grouped 12V control, sensing, or monitoring equipment. Its typical 90% efficiency and IP68 rating can help in enclosed or maintenance-sensitive applications.

Is the HEP-240-12 suitable for outdoor or washdown-prone locations?

This version is rated IP68 and operates from -55°C to +70°C (with derating per the derating curve), so it is intended for harsh conditions including locations where stronger resistance to water ingress is needed. Its 10G vibration rating also supports demanding industrial environments.

What other 12V models are available in the HEP series compared with the HEP-240-12?

The HEP-240 spec sheet covers 12V, 15V, 24V, 36V, 48V and 54V outputs; other HEP families are not on this sheet. In 12V, the series offers this HEP-240-12 (IP68, cable I/O) and the HEP-240-12A (IP65, output voltage and current level adjustable by internal potentiometer), both rated 192W and 16A. The higher-voltage HEP-240 models are rated about 225-241W.
