Test conditions and notes7
  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 0.1μf & 47μf parallel capacitor.
  3. 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  4. 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please check the derating curve for more details.
  5. 5. Touch current was measured from primary input to DC output.
  6. 6. 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).
  7. 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 )

FAQ

Can I use the RPS-120S-48 for a 48V industrial controller or automation node?

Yes, this is a constant voltage 48V power supply rated for 2.5A and 120W. It is appropriate for 48V DC equipment that stays within those output limits.

Is the RPS-120S-48 suitable for embedded systems that use a 48V DC bus?

It can be a fit for compact embedded platforms that are designed around a 48V rail. The supply provides regulated 48V output and uses a 76.2 x 50.8 x 28.0 mm footprint for space-constrained designs.

Can this 48V model support loads with brief inrush or transient demand?

Yes, it provides 120W continuous output and supports 150W peak for 10s. That is useful when a 48V load briefly rises above its normal running level.

Is the RPS-120S-48 meant for outdoor operation?

This unit does not list an IP rating, so it is better used inside equipment or in a protected enclosure rather than in exposed outdoor conditions. Its operating temperature range is -30°C to +85°C, which supports demanding thermal environments when the installation is sheltered.

What are the key differences between the RPS-120S-48 and the other RPS-120S outputs?

In the RPS-120S family, the outputs are 12V at 9.5A and 114W, 15V at 7.6A and 114W, 24V at 5A and 120W, 27V at 4.44A and 119.9W, and 48V at 2.5A and 120W. The 48V model provides the highest output voltage in this group with the corresponding lower current rating.
