160W Power Supplies Target Security Systems
The PSC family from Mean Well Enterprise Co. Ltd. consists of ac-dc power supplies specifically designed for use in security systems. In addition to the primary output, there is an additional charger output with a relatively small current enabling the UPS application with a back-up battery. Two styles are provided per model for different demands- the PCB type and the enclosed type (with L-Bracket and cover.) In addition to the 60W (PSC-60) and the 100W (PSC-100) products, Meam Well has unveiled the 160W model, PSC-160 for systems that demand additional power.
PSC-160 series accepts input voltages from 90-Vac through 264-Vac, and is equipped with the built-in active PFC. Standard output voltage choices include 13.8Vdc (12Vdc nominal, adjustable over the range of 12- to 15-Vdc) and 27.6Vdc (24Vdc nominal, adjustable over the range of 24- to 29-Vdc). The efficiency of this series is up to 90% and the entire series can operate between -20 and +70 degrees under free air convection.
The PSC-160 is designed with complete protection functions, including short circuit protection, overload protection, over voltage protection, battery low protection, and battery reverse polarity protection (by fuse). It also provides the alarm function, via relay contact signal output, for AC OK and battery low. Moreover, PSC-160 also complies with international certificates such as UL, CUL, CB, TUV, and CE. Suitable applications include security systems, emergency lighting systems, alarm systems, DC UPS systems, central monitoring systems, and access systems.
