- Packing: 0.08Kg; 120pcs/11.8Kg/1.06CUFT
- Note: All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25°C of ambient temperature. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12 twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor. Tolerance includes set up tolerance, line regulation, and load regulation. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristics for more details.
- Please connect L line to the positive pole and N line to the negative pole under DC input.
- The power supply is considered as a component that will be operated in combination with final equipment. Since EMC performance will be affected by the complete installation, the final equipment manufacturers must re-qualify EMC Directive on the complete installation again.
- Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to an increase in the set up time.
- This product is not intended for LED lighting luminaire applications in the EU. (In the EU, the LPF/NPF/XLG series are recommended.)
Product Usage Instructions
To use the APV-12 series single output switching power supply, follow these steps:
- Ensure that the input voltage is within the range of 90 ~ 264VAC or 127 ~ 370VDC and the frequency is between 47 ~ 63Hz.
- Connect the L line to the positive pole and the N line to the negative pole under DC input.
- Select the desired output voltage according to your requirements:
- For APV-12-5: Set the output voltage to 5V.
- For APV-12-12: Set the output voltage to 12V.
- For APV-12-15: Set the output voltage to 15V.
- Connect your device or equipment to the power supply’s output terminals.
- Ensure that the load does not exceed the rated current for each model:
- For APV-12-5: The rated current is 2A with a current range of 0 ~ 2A.
