Mean Well has expanded its AC-DC adapter line with the introduction of the GS90 series. This new generation of 90 W adapters complies with the latest Energy Star regulation (version 2.0). Possessing no-load power consumption less than 0,5 W and up to 89% efficiency, the series provides energy saving in both standby and active modes to meet the latest international ‘green’ energy trends.
Using the standard IEC320-C14 inlet as the input connector, these adapters are 90 to 264 V a.c full range input desktop switchers with a built-in active PFC function. With an earth ground pin and enclosed in a UL 94V-0 rated plastic case, these Class I units effectively prevent users from electrical shock.
Through the built-in LED indicator, users can easily tell whether the unit is on duty or not. The adapters have also passed the LPS (limited power source) test and acquired global safety/EMC certificates per TUV, UL, CUL, CB, BSMI, CE, FCC, and CCC which guarantee the safety and reliability for applications such as consumer electronics, communication industry, office/commercial equipment and industrial devices.
