Description

GST160A is a highly reliable, 160W desktop-style single-output green adaptor series. This product is a class I power unit (with FG), equipped with a standard IEC320-C14 AC inlet and adopting the input range from 85VAC to 264VAC. The entire series supplies different models with output voltages ranging between 12VDC and 48VDC that can satisfy the demands for various types of consumer electronic devices.
With an efficiency of up to 94% and extremely low no-load power consumption below 0.15W, GST160A is compliant with USA EISA 2007/DoE, Canada NRCan, Australia and New Zealand MEPS, Korea K-MEPS, EU ErP and Code of Conduct (CoC) Version 5. The supreme feature allows the adaptor to save energy when it is either under the operating mode or the standby mode. The entire series utilizes the 94V-0 flame-retardant plastic case.GST160A is certified for international safety regulations.

NOTE|

All parameters are specified at 230VAC input, rated load, 25℃ 70% RH ambient.
DC voltage: The output voltage set at the point measured by the plug terminal & 50% load.
Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz by using a 12″ twisted pair terminated with a 0.1μf & 47μf capacitor.
Tolerance: includes set up tolerance, line regulation, and load regulation.
Line regulation is measured from the low line to the high line at the rated load.
The length of set-up time is measured at the first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to an increase in the set-up time.
Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
The demand for Malaysia safety is processed with order no. GST160A-SIRIM by request. Please contact MEAN WELL for details.
The power supply is considered an independent unit, but the final equipment still needs to confirm that the whole system complies with the EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.”
