Mean Well is offering its QP-320 series - 320 W quad-output enclosed type switching power supply with power factor correction (PFC) function. Featuring 20A/1 ms peak current capability for the 24 V channel which is repeatable every 100 ms, QP-320 series can provide the power demand for operating motor-based machinery. Besides the standard functions of remote sense and PF/PG signal output, the output voltage of CH1 and CH2 can be adjusted from -5~+10% that gives users more flexibility under different kind of applications. This new series is suitable for gaming machine, lottery vending machine, or other general electronic usage such as factory automation and instrumentation.
Using the same case as QP-200 series, the new QP-320 boosts the output power by 60% and also fills up the gap of middle wattage multiple output products. The design and component selection are based on a rigid procedure to ensure a long service life.
Features include:
* Universal AC input/full range.
* Peak load capability for 24 V channel.
* Built-in active PFC circuit compliance to EN61000-3-2.
* Short circuit, overload, over-voltage, over-temperature protection.
* Built-in remote sense function.
* PF/PG signal output.
* CH 1,2 can be adjusted from -5~+10% rated voltage.
