Test conditions and notes9
  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 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. 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-320-12A for a 12V machine enclosure or factory control cabinet?

Yes, it is a 12V constant voltage unit rated for 264W and 22A, which fits higher-current 12V control and enclosure loads. That makes it suitable when several 12V devices need to share one supply without stepping up to a much larger model.

Is the HEP-320-12A a good fit for 12V embedded systems that need more current than entry-level supplies?

It offers up to 22A at 12V, which is materially higher than small 12V power supplies. The 264W rating gives it room for larger constant-voltage embedded systems that would exceed low-power models.

Can the HEP-320-12A be used for 12V security, access, or monitoring equipment in commercial settings?

It can be used where the overall load stays within 12V, 22A, and 264W. That makes it a reasonable choice for grouped 12V commercial electronics where one higher-capacity constant voltage source is preferred.

Would this model work for 12V automation equipment exposed to vibration?

Yes, the specifications include an IP65 rating, fanless construction, and 10G vibration resistance. Those characteristics are useful in industrial environments where moving equipment or mechanical vibration is a concern.

Is the HEP-320-12A suitable for outdoor use?

This version is rated IP65 water-resistant, so it is suitable for dust exposure and water spray but not the same as the IP68 version for more demanding wet conditions. Its operating range of -55°C to +70°C still supports very hot and very cold environments.

What are the main differences between the HEP-320-12A and other HEP-320 outputs?

In the HEP-320 family, the 12V version is 264W at 22A, the 15V version is 285W at 19A, the 24V version is 320.16W at 13.34A, the 36V version is 320.4W at 8.9A, the 48V version is 321.6W at 6.7A, and the 54V version is 321.3W at 5.95A. The non-A and A entries share the same electrical ratings in the sibling list, and this specific model is the IP65 water-resistant version.
