Model and Output
| Complete model |
HRPG-450-12 |
| Model meaning |
HRPG-450 identifies the family and its nominal power class; 12 identifies the rated main-output voltage. Use the actual 450 W rating for this model. |
| Rated main output |
12 VDC / 37.5 A / 450 W |
| Main current range |
0 to 37.5 A, subject to the applicable load and derating conditions. |
| Local voltage adjustment |
10.2 to 13.8 V using SVR1 |
| Ripple and noise |
120 mVp-p maximum |
| Accuracy and regulation |
Voltage tolerance ±1.0%; line regulation ±0.3%; load regulation ±0.5%. |
| Typical efficiency |
88% |
Unqualified data use 230 VAC input, rated load and 25°C ambient. Voltage tolerance includes setup tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
Ripple and noise are measured at 20 MHz bandwidth using a 12-inch twisted pair terminated with 0.1 µF and 47 µF capacitors in parallel.
Input and Timing
| Continuous input |
85–264 VAC, 47–63 Hz, or 120–370 VDC; universal full-range AC input with low-line derating. |
| Short-duration input withstand |
300 VAC for 5 seconds; this is not the continuous AC input rating. |
| Typical power factor |
>0.95 at 230 VAC; >0.99 at 115 VAC, at full load. |
| Typical AC current |
5 A at 115 VAC; 2.4 A at 230 VAC. |
| Typical inrush / leakage |
35 A at 115 VAC; 70 A at 230 VAC. Leakage <1.5 mA at 240 VAC. |
| Setup / rise time |
Setup 1800 ms at 230 VAC or 3600 ms at 115 VAC; rise 100 ms, at full load. |
| Typical hold-up time |
16 ms at either 230 VAC or 115 VAC, at full load. |
The block diagram includes active PFC and active inrush-current limiting; PWM switching frequency is 70 kHz.
Setup time is measured at the first cold start. Repeated ON/OFF operation can increase setup time.
Protection
| Short circuit / overload |
105–135% of rated output power. Constant-current limiting with automatic recovery after the fault is removed. |
| Overvoltage |
14.4–16.8 V. Output shuts down; re-power to recover. |
| Overtemperature |
Output shuts down and recovers automatically after temperature decreases. |
Protection thresholds are not continuous overload operating ratings.
Cooling, Derating and Environment
| Fan control, typical |
Built-in fan turns on at the printed load threshold of 20 ±10%, or when internal sensor RTH2 reaches at least 50°C. RTH2 temperature is not ambient temperature. |
| Horizontal temperature curve |
100% load from −40°C to +50°C, then derating to 50% at +70°C. |
| Input-voltage curve |
At 60 Hz: 80% load at 85 VAC, rising to 100% at 100 VAC; full load from 100 to 264 VAC. |
| Humidity / storage |
Working: 20–90% RH. Storage: −40 to +85°C and 10–95% RH. Non-condensing. |
| Temperature coefficient / vibration |
±0.03%/°C from 0 to 50°C; 10–500 Hz, 5 G, 10 minutes/cycle, 60 minutes each on X, Y and Z axes. |
Forced-air cooling: airflow runs from output end toward input/fan end, as shown in the mechanical drawing. Keep this airflow path clear.
Above 2000 m, the fan-cooled altitude note requires ambient-temperature derating of 5°C per additional 1000 m. This note does not specify a separate maximum altitude.
Remote Sense and DC-OK
| Remote-sense terminals |
CN100 pin 7: +S; pin 8: −S. Connect to the corresponding positive and negative load points; use main terminals for load current. |
| DC-OK status |
CN100 pin 5 is DC-OK; pin 6 is GND. The signal is 3.3–5.6 V when the PSU is ON and 0–1 V when OFF. |
The sense pair compensates up to 0.5 V of drop in the load wiring. Twist +S and −S together to reduce noise pickup.
DC-OK is a TTL-level signal referenced to GND, which connects to the main negative output. No DC-OK current-drive rating is specified in this section.
Remote ON/OFF and Standby Output
| Remote-control connection |
CN100 RC+ pin 1 relative to RC− pin 2: open or 4–10 V = main output ON; short or 0–0.8 V = main output OFF. |
| Standby output |
CN100 AUX pin 3 relative to AUXG pin 4: 5 V nominal, 4.75–5.25 V (±5%), 0.3 A maximum; ripple 50 mVp-p maximum. |
| Remote-off no-load consumption |
<0.5 W when RC+ and RC− are shorted or held at 0–0.8 V. |
The standby output is not controlled by remote ON/OFF. AUXG is isolated from the main +V/−V output; keep it distinct from the main-output GND reference.
The remote-control terminal ratings and polarity apply to this model. They do not establish that a control cable or factory jumper is included.
Function Scope
No active current-sharing mode is specified for HRPG-450 in this catalog section.

The PSU is a component for final equipment. EMC testing used a 360 × 360 × 1 mm metal plate; the completed equipment must be checked again for EMC compliance. Component approvals do not automatically certify the finished installation.
The manufacturer datasheet lists a 5-year warranty, subject to the applicable manufacturer terms. MTBF is a prediction, not a guaranteed lifetime.
