CSP-3000-120 datasheet by Mean Well

CSP-3000-120 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating altitude for the CSP-3000-120?
  The CSP-3000-120 can operate up to 5000 meters (16,400 feet) above sea level without derating.
• Can the CSP-3000-120 be used in a redundant configuration?
  Yes, the CSP-3000-120 can be used in a redundant configuration, but it requires an external ORing diode or a redundancy module to ensure proper operation.
• What is the minimum load requirement for the CSP-3000-120?
  The CSP-3000-120 requires a minimum load of 10% to maintain stable output voltage and ensure reliable operation.
• Can the CSP-3000-120 be used in a high-temperature environment?
  The CSP-3000-120 is designed to operate in temperatures up to 70°C (158°F), but derating is required above 40°C (104°F) to ensure reliable operation.
• What is the surge tolerance of the CSP-3000-120?
  The CSP-3000-120 can withstand a surge of up to 300% of the nominal input voltage for 1 second, and up to 200% for 10 seconds.
