Product Change Notice: Protection Method of LRS-200-48 & LRS-350-48 is changed to re-power on to recover mode
The all-purpose industrial standard power supply, LRS family, has completed the EN62368 safety upgrade in October 2019. To fulfill the latest safety regulation, tthe circuit design of LRS-200-48 and LRS-350-48 was changed, adjusting the protection methods such as Over Load Protection (OLP), Over Voltage Protection (OVP), and Over Temperature Protection (OTP) to“ shut down and latch off o/p voltage, re-power on to recover.” Other LRS-200/350 3.3~36V models remain the Hiccup mode protection. (Show as fig.1) This change only shows the difference during error state, while under normal working circumstances; all LRS series can maintain high quality and stable output as usual. Shall you have any questions regarding this engineering change, please contact MEAN WELL sales representative.

Product Upgrade Notice: UHP-1000/1500/2500 & PHP-3500 Upgraded with Over Temperature Automatic De-rating Function
The conduction-cooled UHP family is MEAN WELL new generation of industrial control power supply, and its unique fanless design has been well received by the market since release. UHP family 1000W and above products (UHP-1000/1500/2500 & PHP-3500) come with the Programmable Current (PC) function, which allows the output current to be modulated between 20%~100% by applying an external 1~5VDC control signal. One common application for the PC function is charging application. Customers can use the PC function to control charge rate of batteries. During the charging operation, if the temperature is too high, traditional over temperature protection will shut-off the output power completely until temperature cools down. The upgraded UHP-1000/1500/2500 & PHP-3500 will have automatic output power de-rating when operated with the PC function, which will effectively improve product reliability and still charge the batteries at a slower rate to maintain equipment operation.
