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 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
- 5. Heat sink HS2,HS3 can not be shorted.
- 6. Heat sink HS2,HS3 must have safety isolation distance from system case.
- 7. 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 230mm*230mm 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 )
- 8. Please refer to suggest application (2)、(4) in page 3.
- 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 PSC-100A-C for 13.8V backup power in industrial monitoring or automation equipment?
The PSC-100A-C provides a 13.8V DC output rated 4.75A on CH1 (plus 2.5A on CH2), for 100.05W total rated power. That suits equipment built for a 13.8V battery-backed DC bus, provided the load stays within the 4.75A CH1 rating.
Is the PSC-100A-C appropriate for telecom, radio, or communications hardware that uses a 13.8V DC bus?
It is designed around a 13.8V DC output with a rated current of 4.75A on CH1. For communications hardware that is specified for 13.8V operation, that output rating and the 100.05W total rated power define whether the unit is a match.
Can the PSC-100A-C support battery-backed embedded systems or industrial controllers during AC interruptions?
This model includes a UPS function and is rated 100.05W total at 13.8V, with 4.75A rated on CH1. That makes it relevant for embedded or control equipment intended to run on a 13.8V battery-backed supply, as long as the load current stays within 4.75A.
Is the PSC-100A-C suitable for use in global OEM equipment shipped to different AC power regions?
The input range is 90-264VAC (or 127-370VDC), so the supply can operate across a broad AC mains range without changing the DC output rating. The output remains 13.8V with 4.75A rated on CH1 and 100.05W total rated power.
Can the PSC-100A-C be used in hot or cold indoor electrical cabinets?
The rated operating temperature is -20°C to +70°C, with load derating at higher ambient temperatures (refer to the enclosed-type derating curve). The provided specifications do not include an IP rating, so dust-tight or outdoor exposure suitability cannot be confirmed from the listed data.
What practical differences should I note between the PSC-100A and PSC-100A-C form factors?
Both versions are rated 100.05W, 13.8V, and 4.75A with the same -20°C to +70°C operating temperature range, certifications, and 2-year warranty. The PSC-100A-C is larger and heavier at 130.0 × 85.0 × 37.0 mm and 0.44 kg, while the PSC-100A is 127.0 × 76.2 × 31.0 mm and 0.23 kg.
