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. Length of set up time is measured at cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the setup time.
  5. 5. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to the “STATIC CHARACTERISTICS” for more details.
  6. 6. The power supply shall be regarded as one component of the final system. The EMC performance will be affected by the complete system installation and/or configuration, the final system manufacturers must re-verify overall EMC directive with the complete installation and/or configuration. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
  7. 7. The water protection level test for the IP68 rating is performed 1000mm below the surface of the water for 1 month.
  8. 8. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
  9. 9. 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-480-48 for 48V telecom or network power applications?

Yes, if the equipment is designed for constant-voltage 48V DC input. This unit provides 48V at up to 10A with 480W total output, which suits higher-demand 48V loads better than low-current supplies.

Is the HEP-480-48 a good match for 48V industrial automation equipment?

It can be used for automation systems that require a regulated 48V DC source and stay within 10A. The 90-264VAC input range (277VAC operational) is also useful for installations where the available AC supply is not tightly standardized.

Can this model power 48V DC motors, actuators, or embedded control assemblies?

It is suitable for 48V DC equipment that expects constant-voltage input and has a total load at or below 480W. Buyers should match the equipment's required 48V input and ensure the running current does not exceed 10A.

Is the HEP-480-48 suitable for outdoor or wet industrial locations?

This version is listed at IP68 and operates from -55°C to +65°C (with load derating at higher temperatures), so it is intended for harsher environmental exposure than a basic indoor-only supply. Its 10G vibration resistance also supports use in difficult field conditions.

What are the main differences between the HEP-480-24, HEP-480-36, HEP-480-48, and HEP-480-54?

The HEP-480-24 is 480W at 24V and 20A, the HEP-480-36 is 478.8W at 36V and 13.3A, the HEP-480-48 is 480W at 48V and 10A, and the HEP-480-54 is 480.6W at 54V and 8.9A. The practical difference is the DC voltage level each unit provides and the current available at that voltage.
