❓ FAQ
Q1. What’s the main difference between the four variants?
Output current & power rating (1A/2A/5A/8A) and input range/body type (PS12-5A-P comes with a plastic body; PS12-8A has 100–240V AC input).
Q2. Are these SMPS suitable for continuous industrial operation?
Yes, they’re designed for 24×7 duty in automation and control environments.
Q3. Do they include short-circuit and overload protection?
Yes, all models include comprehensive protection (OL/OV/SC/OT), with automatic recovery or latch-off depending on the event.
Q4. Can I mount them on a DIN rail?
Most Multispan SMPS are DIN-rail/panel friendly. Check the exact model’s mechanical sheet if you need confirmation.
Q5. Can I power PLCs or communication modules directly?
Yes, as long as the load current is within the selected variant’s rated output.
