Economical enclosed type power
February 2011
Electrical Power & Protection
Mean Well has introduced its new generation of 210 and 350 W single output enclosed type power supplies NES-200 and NES-350. With non-PFC design for lower cost, NES-200/350 is equipped with 300 VAC input surge immunity for 5 seconds to eliminate damage caused by unstable AC mains. NES-200’s fan-less design can be operated between -20 and 50°C ambient using free convection cooling. NES-350 is equipped with a long-life DC fan and can be operated in up to +60°C ambient.
Other standard functions include protection for short circuit, overload, over-voltage and over-temperature, built-in constant current limiting circuit and an LED indicator for power on. All series comply with UL safety standard and applications include industrial automation, moving signs and electronic equipment.
