Test conditions and notes6
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 36,110VDC 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. Strongly recommended that external output capacitance should not exceed 5000uF. (Only for: RSD-300-5 / -12)
- 5. 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 )
- 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).

FAQ
Can I use the RSD-300D-12 to power a 12V industrial control system from a 67 to 143V DC source?
Yes. The RSD-300D-12 is a constant-voltage DC-DC converter with a 67.2 to 143VDC input range and a 12V output. Its 300W and 25A rating suits 12V control loads that stay within those limits.
Is this converter suitable for 12V embedded computers or automation electronics in higher-voltage DC equipment?
It can be a fit when the source bus is 67.2 to 143VDC and the equipment needs regulated 12V. The available output is 25A with 300W total power, which supports heavier 12V embedded and automation loads within that range.
Would the RSD-300D-12 work in rail, vehicle, or mobile industrial systems with vibration?
Yes, the listed features include 5G vibration resistance and compliance with railway standards (EN50155, IEC61373), which aligns with mobile or vibration-prone industrial environments. It provides 12V constant-voltage output and is rated for 300W with up to 25A output current.
Can I use this model for 12V industrial communications or monitoring equipment on a high-voltage DC bus?
Yes, if the downstream equipment requires 12V constant-voltage power and remains within 25A and 300W. The 67.2 to 143VDC input range is useful where the upstream DC bus is substantially higher than the load voltage.
Is the RSD-300D-12 appropriate for outdoor or high-temperature locations?
The operating temperature range is -40°C to +55°C (no derating), extending to +70°C at 60% load by free air convection. No IP rating is listed, so the published specs do not confirm outdoor exposure or washdown suitability.
How does the RSD-300D-12 compare with the other RSD-300D variants listed?
The RSD-300D-12 is rated at 300W, 12V, and 25A. Other variants in the RSD-300D series include the RSD-300D-5 (210W, 5V, 42A), RSD-300D-24 (300W, 24V, 12.5A), and RSD-300D-48 (302.4W, 48V, 6.3A). The provided sibling data shows different output voltages, currents, and wattage figures across the group.
