Test conditions and notes8
- 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 https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
- 5. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 6. Touch current was measured from primary input to DC output.
- 7. When the input voltage is less than 40VAC, the SPS may exhibit degradation of performance. The final product manufacturers must re-confirm this deviation that does not affect basic safety or essential performance.
- 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).

FAQ
Can I use the MSP-100-12 for a 12V industrial control or automation system?
Yes. It provides constant-voltage 12V output up to 8.5A with 102W total power, which suits 12V control electronics and automation assemblies designed for regulated DC input. The wide 85-264VAC input also supports use across different AC mains conditions.
Is the MSP-100-12 suitable for 12V embedded or IT equipment that runs continuously?
It can be a good match for 12V embedded and IT hardware that needs a stable constant-voltage source within 8.5A and 102W. The spec list also includes active PFC and no-load power consumption below 0.5W, which is relevant for efficient always-on systems.
Can this power supply be used in medical or medical-adjacent equipment designs?
The provided features state that it is medical safety approved. For 12V equipment that fits within 8.5A and 102W, that makes it more appropriate for medical-oriented designs than a general-purpose supply without that approval note.
Would the MSP-100-12 work for a 12V industrial communications or network appliance?
Yes, if the equipment is designed for constant-voltage 12V input and stays within the 8.5A and 102W rating. Its 159.0 × 97.0 × 38.0 mm size can also help in compact equipment layouts where internal space is controlled.
Can the MSP-100-12 handle colder or hotter environments than a typical indoor-only supply?
Its operating temperature range is -40°C to +60°C, with output derating at higher ambient temperatures per the sheet's derating curve. No IP rating is listed, so that temperature capability still points to protected installation rather than exposed outdoor use.
What makes the MSP-100-12 different from other MSP-100 voltage options?
Within the MSP-100 group shown, the 12V model is 102W at 8.5A, while MSP-100-15 is 105W at 15V and 7A, MSP-100-24 is 108W at 24V and 4.5A, MSP-100-36 is 104.4W at 36V and 2.9A, and MSP-100-48 is 105.6W at 48V and 2.2A. Lower-voltage versions include MSP-100-3.3 at 66W and 20A, MSP-100-5 at 85W and 17A, and MSP-100-7.5 at 101.3W and 13.5A.
