S-240 Phasing Out





After successfully selling for 14 years, S-240 series (240W) is going to be phased out on 2010/07/01(Begin produce by order with MOQ: 300pcs/lot since 2010/01/01). The successor “SP-240” series, single output enclosed type power supply with built-in active Power Factor Correction (PFC) function, is formally launched to market now. In order to easily make the replacement, this new series is designed to cover both features and dimensions of the old ones. For instance, we keep the same locations of bottom mounting holes and DC fan, but lower 15mm of the height, so that designers can easily use the original mechanism without any changes. In addition, SP-240 series can fill-up the gap of our enclosed type power supplies with PFC function between 200W and 320W, and also allows MEAN WELL to offer users the complete product coverage. Till now, we can offer various options of AC/DC single output product with PFC function to users by wattages of 75W, 100W, 150W, 200W, 240W, 320W, 480W, 500W and 750W.




SP-240 series possess built-in active PFC function which is superior to the passive PFC design of S-240. With full range input from 88 to 264VAC, this series has the same output voltages options (5V/7.5V/12V/15V/24V/30V/48V) as the old one. Featuring up to 89% of operating efficiency, SP-240 has higher efficiency by 1~4% than the corresponding models of its prior generation. SP-240 series also equip with a long life DC fan with fan ON/OFF control circuit that can be operated up to 70℃ambient temperature.



In addition, for the concern of cost advantage, this new power unit is designed with single side PCB instead of double side PCB of S-240. Except for extending its warranty from 2 years to 3 years, SP-240 series has standard functions of adjustable output voltage by internal potential meter, protection for short circuit, overload, over voltage and over temperature. All series comply with international safety standards per UL/CUL/TUV/CB/CE which ensure the worry free operation. Suitable applications include industrial automation, moving sign, electronic equipment, and instrumentation…etc
