MEAN WELL NMP650 is a 4-slot modular AC/DC power supply front end with up to 650 W combined output, subject to input and temperature derating. Its 1U enclosure accepts selected NMS-240 single-output or NMD-240 dual-output modules. The bare front-end model does not specify the installed module combination or a fixed main-output voltage.

The NMP section is on PDF pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17. Refer to the complete mechanical drawings and notes when planning installation.
Front End and Output Configuration
Model / module capacity
NMP650; 4 slots. Maximum combined output power: 650 W. Select the output modules and keep all channel loads within both their individual limits and the front-end limit.
Main-output voltage and current
Determined by the selected output modules; this front-end code alone does not define a fixed main-output voltage or current. The 5 V auxiliary supply is a separate control-power output.
Single-output module choices
Code C: NMS-240-05, 5 V / 36 A / 180 W, adjustable 3–6 V. Code E: NMS-240-12, 12 V / 20 A / 240 W, adjustable 6–15 V. Code H: NMS-240-24, 24 V / 10 A / 240 W, adjustable 15–30 V. Code K: NMS-240-48, 48 V / 5 A / 240 W, adjustable 30–55 V.
Dual-output module choice
Code D: NMD-240, two independently adjustable 3–30 V outputs. Each output is rated up to 30 V / 5 A / 150 W, but the two outputs together must not exceed 240 W.
Configuration code
After NMP650, specify the module code for each slot and the required parallel/option code. Applicable parallel/option codes: 00, 01, 02, 03, 06, 07, 10, 16. The exact linked-slot groups are shown on PDF pages 2–3.
Unused slots
The # configuration symbol identifies a blank slot. Fit BLANK-NMS240 to an unused slot; contact MEAN WELL for the required blank-slot assembly and supply details.
A module occupying one slot can provide one output, or two outputs when NMD-240 is selected. Module names and configuration codes describe selectable components, not a preinstalled set included with this bare front-end model. The configured example on PDF page 2 illustrates selection and does not override individual or combined power limits.
AC/DC Input and Conversion
Input voltage / frequency
90–264 VAC or 120–370 VDC; AC-input frequency 47–63 Hz. Low input voltage requires derating.
Power factor
PF >0.95 at 230 VAC and >0.98 at 115 VAC, at full load.
Typical efficiency
91% at full case load using H / K modules at nominal 24 V / 48 V. The specified mixed-module nominal-voltage test gives 88.5%; efficiency depends on module selection.
AC input current
3.5 A at 230 VAC; 7.5 A at 115 VAC.
Inrush current
40 A at 230 VAC; 25 A at 115 VAC.
Leakage / touch current
Earth leakage <400 µA and touch current <100 µA at 264 VAC.
Conversion switching frequencies
Front-end PFC: 70 kHz; front-end PWM: 100 kHz. The NMS-240 and NMD-240 module block diagrams show 175 kHz PWM.
The mixed-module efficiency example uses one each of codes C, E, H and K, with total output no greater than 650 W.
Unless otherwise stated, specifications are measured at 230 VAC, rated load and 25°C. Module ripple measurements use 20 MHz bandwidth and a 12-inch twisted pair terminated by 0.1 µF and 47 µF capacitors in parallel.
Cooling, Derating and Protection
Cooling
Thermostatically controlled fan cooling; the series feature list includes a fan-alarm function. Keep the fan and airflow path clear and follow the mechanical drawing.
Temperature / load curve
For horizontal installation at 230 VAC, 100% load is available from −30 to +50°C, reducing to 60% at +70°C. At 115 VAC, the plotted range starts at −25°C, holds 100% through +50°C and reduces to 50% at +70°C. The −30 to −25°C extension is marked 230 VAC only.
Input-voltage / load curve
At 60 Hz, the curve rises from 70% load at 90 VAC to 100% at 110 VAC; 100% is shown from 110 to 264 VAC. Apply this together with temperature and module-specific limits.
Front-end overtemperature protection
Output shuts down and automatically recovers after the temperature falls. T-Alarm provides a warning before the safe-limit shutdown.
Output-module protections
NMS-240 and each NMD-240 output have overload, short-circuit, overvoltage and overtemperature protection. Their 105–125% overload range uses constant-current limiting; overvoltage shuts down the output and requires re-powering, while overtemperature automatically recovers after cooling. Module-specific voltage thresholds must be selected with the module.
NMD-240 also has its own voltage-dependent temperature curves on PDF page 8; a complete configuration must obey the lowest applicable front-end, module, input and ambient limit. Do not apply the front-end curve as a replacement for a selected module curve.
Global Control, Auxiliary Output and Alarm
CN32 control connector
Front-end connector: HRS DF11-6DP-2DS or equivalent. Mating housing: HRS DF11-6DS or equivalent. The terminal-family reference is HRS DF11-**SC or equivalent; select the exact contact variant for the wire assembly.
CN32 pin map
Pins 1 and 2: +5V-AUX_P; pins 3 and 4: GND-P; pin 5: T-Alarm; pin 6: RC1.
Auxiliary control power
5 V / 1.5 A total, shared by CN32 pins 1 and 2 and referenced to pins 3 and 4. Tolerance ±10% (4.5–5.5 V); ripple 50 mVp-p maximum. This is not the full-power main output.
Global ON/OFF
Short CN32 pin 6 (RC1) to pin 3 or 4 (GND-P) for ON; open for OFF. If global remote control is not used, install the supplied shorting connector, which links pin 6 to pin 3. Without that shorting connector the supply has no output.
Temperature alarm
T-Alarm on CN32 pin 5 is referenced to GND-P on pin 3 or 4 and can source up to 10 mA. Normal internal temperature: 0–0.5 V, output ON. Temperature-alarm limit exceeded: 4.5–5.5 V, output still ON. Safe limit exceeded: 4.5–5.5 V, output OFF.
The alarm monitors internal temperature at U702, not ambient temperature. The shorting connector is identified as supplied with the PSU; separately purchased mating housings and contacts are not stated as additional included parts.
Functions Available with Selected Output Modules
NMS-240 local control / status
CN81 pin 3 (RC2) to pin 1 or 2 (GND): open ON, short OFF. Pin 5 is DC OK: 4.5–5.5 V ON, 0–0.5 V OFF, up to 10 mA sourcing. Pin 4 provides VCC2 auxiliary 5 V / 10 mA.
NMS-240 remote sense
CN81 pin 9 is +S and pin 10 is −S. Compensates up to 0.5 V load-wire drop; twist the sense lines as a pair and connect them at the load.
NMS-240 voltage / current programming
CN81 pin 8 is PV and pin 7 is PC, both referenced to GND on pin 1 or 2. PV covers the selected module’s listed adjustment range. PC adjusts the constant-current level over 40–100% of rated current. The diagrams mark the control relationships non-linear; use the full module curves rather than one assumed linear conversion.
NMS-240 current sharing
Connect CS on CN81 pin 6 and GND on pin 1 or 2 between the modules. Use no more than 4 NMS-240 modules within this front end, with output-voltage differences below 0.2 V. Total current must respect the selected modules and combined output power must remain within 650 W and all derating limits.
NMD-240 local control / status
CN82 pins 1 and 2 are GND1 (−V1) and GND2 (−V2). Pin 3 (RC2) controls V1 relative to pin 1; pin 4 (RC3) controls V2 relative to pin 2: open ON, short OFF. Pins 5 and 6 are DC OK1 and DC OK2 respectively: 4.5–5.5 V ON and 0–0.5 V OFF, up to 10 mA sourcing. Pins 7–10 are NC.
Module control connectors
NMS CN81 and NMD CN82 use HRS DF11-10DP-2DS or equivalent, with HRS DF11-10DS mating housing or equivalent. Contacts use the printed HRS DF11-**SC terminal-family reference; confirm the full ordering suffix for the selected wire assembly.
Remote sense, PV, PC and current sharing are NMS-240 functions; they are not assigned to NMD-240 or to unused CN32 pins. Global front-end control and local module control use opposite open/short logic.
For NMS current sharing, use short, large-diameter output wiring. Below 10% rated load, only the master module may operate while the others enter standby. Turn all paralleled modules ON/OFF simultaneously; their LEDs and DC OK indications must operate together. Do not use PC while modules are paralleled. In current sharing, short-circuit protection for C (5 V) or E (12 V) modules may be hiccup or constant-current limiting. Contact MEAN WELL for the parallel/series connection accessories appropriate to the selected configuration.
