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 needed under low input voltages. Please check the static characteristics for more details.
- 5. A-type only.
- 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. 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. 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).
- 9. The water protection level test for the IP68 rating is performed 1000mm below the surface of the water for 1 month.

FAQ
Can I use the HEP-320-12 for a 12V industrial control panel with multiple loads?
Yes, this model is a 12V constant voltage power supply rated for 264W and 22A, which suits larger 12V control panels with multiple devices sharing the same 12V bus. It is better matched to systems that need higher available current than lower-power 12V supplies.
Is the HEP-320-12 suitable for 12V automation equipment in harsh environments?
It is designed for harsh conditions, with IP68 protection, a fanless design, and a stated ability to withstand 10G vibration. The operating temperature range of -55°C to +70°C also supports demanding industrial and outdoor environments.
Can this 12V power supply run higher-current embedded or vehicle-adjacent 12V electronics?
It can support 12V electronics that need a stable constant voltage source up to 22A and 264W. That makes it a fit for heavier 12V embedded loads where lower-power 12V models may not provide enough current headroom.
Can I use the HEP-320-12 for 12V LED or signage systems that need more than 16A?
Yes, this unit provides 12V at up to 22A, so it covers constant-voltage 12V loads that need more than 16A. Its 264W capacity also makes it suitable when the total 12V load is above what smaller 12V power supplies can deliver.
Is the HEP-320-12 appropriate for outdoor or washdown locations?
This version is rated IP68, so it is better suited to wet, dusty, and outdoor environments than water-resistant indoor-only designs. Its -55°C to +70°C operating range also supports very cold and very hot installation areas.
How does the HEP-320-12 compare with the other HEP-320 models?
Within the HEP-320 range, the 12V model is 264W at 22A, the 15V model is 285W at 19A, the 24V model is 320.16W at 13.34A, the 36V model is 320.4W at 8.9A, the 48V model is 321.6W at 6.7A, and the 54V model is 321.3W at 5.95A. The A variants mirror those same electrical ratings in the sibling list, while this unit is the IP68 version.
