MEAN WELL Security Power & Battery Backup Series
Security Power & Backup Features
These series are engineered to support critical security and surveillance installations. They integrate power supply and battery charging functions to ensure continuous operation during grid failure.
- UPS Function: Integrated battery charging and backup capability ensures equipment remains powered during AC power outages.
- Dual/Single Output Options: Available in both single (AD/PSC/ADS) and dual-output (ADD) configurations to power various camera, sensor, and control systems simultaneously.
- Compact Form Factor: Small, reliable, and cost-effective designs suitable for security enclosures and control cabinets.
- Essential Protections: Includes battery low protection (prevents deep discharge), short circuit, and overload protection.
- LED Status Indicators: Provides clear diagnostic feedback for AC input and DC output status.

Series Range Overview
| Series | Output Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| PSC | Single | Security power supply with battery charger (UPS). |
| AD | Single | Security power with built-in UPS function. |
| ADS | Single | General industrial security power. |
| ADD | Dual | Dual output security power with UPS function. |
Note: The "ADD" series is particularly useful for systems where you need one rail for the control unit and a second, isolated rail for security cameras or sensors.
Selection Guide
Choose the series based on your output requirements and the need for backup battery management.
| Requirement | Recommended Series |
|---|---|
| Simple Backup | PSC or AD |
| Dual Rails (e.g., Main + Sensors) | ADD (Dual Output) |
| Basic Security Power (No UPS) | ADS |
Design Tips:
1. Always calculate the total power consumption (Watts) of all connected cameras and sensors.
2. Ensure the battery capacity (Ah) selected is sufficient to maintain system runtime during your required outage period.
3. Battery connection cables are usually included; ensure the battery matches the voltage specification of the unit.
