Test conditions and notes10
- 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.(In order to meet tolerance, it is recommended that CH1 load > 5% rated current.)
- 4. Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
- 5. Load regulation is measured from 20% to 100% rated load, and other output at 60% rated load.
- 6. Each output can work within current range. But total output power can't exceed rated output power.
- 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 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 )
- 8. Length of set up time is measured at cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply very quickly may lead to increase of the set up time.
- 9. Testing harmonic current at 85%load.
- 10. 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 RD-125-1224 in a small industrial control box that needs dual outputs?
Yes, this model is a 133.2W enclosed AC-DC power supply with a dual output design and a listed 12V output at 3.7A. Its 199 × 98 × 38 mm size can help where panel space is limited. The stated 88-132VAC / 176-264VAC input (selected by switch) also defines the AC range it is designed to accept.
Is the RD-125-1224 appropriate for embedded equipment or bench systems that use a 12V rail?
It can fit compact embedded or bench equipment that needs a 12V output and a total power class of 133.2W. The listed 12V output is rated at 3.7A, and the unit is enclosed rather than open-frame. Its 0.59 kg weight and compact size may also matter in smaller assemblies.
Can this dual output power supply be used in light automation or monitoring equipment?
For light-duty automation or monitoring equipment that uses a 12V rail, the RD-125-1224 provides 133.2W total power with a listed 12V output at 3.7A. The product is also specified to withstand 5G vibration and operate up to +70°C. Those details make it more relevant to enclosed equipment than a basic low-temperature bench-only supply.
Is the RD-125-1224 suitable for outdoor use or vibration-prone indoor environments?
The listed operating range is -25°C to +70°C, and the features state it can withstand 5G vibration. No IP rating is provided in the specs, so the available data does not establish an outdoor ingress-protection level. Based on the published data, temperature range and vibration resistance are specified, but an IP code is not.
How does the RD-125-1224 compare with the other RD family models listed here?
Among the provided siblings with full values, RD-125-1248 is 138W 12V 2.3A, RD-125-2448 is 144W 24V 2A, RD-125A is 130.9W 5V 7.7A, RD-125B is 133.4W 5V 4.6A, RD-3513 is 35.1W 13.5V 1.3A, RD-35A is 32W 5V 4A, RD-35B is 35W 5V 2.2A, RD-50A is 54W 5V 6A, RD-50B is 53.6W 5V 4A, RD-65A is 66W 5V 6A, RD-65B is 68W 5V 4A, and RD-85A and RD-85B are both 88W 5V 8A. RD-125-2412, RD-125-4812, RD-125-4824, RD-125A-OB, RD-125NB, and RD-65A-OB are listed as siblings without full power, voltage, or current values in the provided data.
