Test conditions and notes7
- 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 0.1μf & 47μf parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. All the EMC tests are been executed by mounting the unit on a 360mm*360mm metal plate with 1mm of thickness. The final equipment must be re-confirmed that it still meets 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)
- 5. Mounting holes M1 and M2 should be grounded for EMI purposes.
- 6. Heat Sink HS1,HS2 can not be shorted.
- 7. Touch current was measured from primary input to DC output.

FAQ
Can I use the MPS-45-12 for a small 12V industrial control panel or relay cabinet?
Yes, it is a constant-voltage 12V supply rated for 44.4W and 3.7A, which fits small 12V control loads that stay within those limits. Its 90-264VAC input also suits facilities that need a wide AC input range.
Is this power supply suitable for 12V embedded systems or HMI accessories?
It can be suitable for 12V embedded equipment that requires a regulated 12V constant-voltage source and draws no more than 3.7A or 44.4W. Buyers should match the load to the 12V output and stay within the published current and power rating.
Can I use this 12V model for low-power automation sensors, indicators, or small actuators?
For 12V automation devices, this model fits lower-power applications rated at 44.4W and 3.7A output current. That makes it more appropriate for smaller 12V loads than higher-demand 12V equipment.
Is the MPS-45-12 rated for outdoor or harsh wet locations?
The published specs list an operating temperature of -10°C to +60°C, but they do not list any IP rating. Based on the provided data, it is not specified here for direct outdoor weather exposure or washdown environments.
How does the MPS-45-12 compare with other MPS series power supplies?
This version is 44.4W at 12V and 3.7A. The other models on the MPS-45 sheet are MPS-45-3.3 26.4W 3.3V 8A, MPS-45-5 40W 5V 8A, MPS-45-7.5 40.5W 7.5V 5.4A, MPS-45-13.5 44.55W 13.5V 3.3A, MPS-45-15 45W 15V 3A, MPS-45-24 45.6W 24V 1.9A, MPS-45-27 45.9W 27V 1.7A, and MPS-45-48 48W 48V 1A. All share the 90-264VAC input, medical safety approvals and the 127*76*28mm size, so the main differences are output voltage, current and power.
