FAQs
for FSP500-80MPD – 500W Medical ATX Power Supplies
The power supply is rated to deliver 500W continuously. The combined +12V rails can provide up to 38A, while the combined +3.3V and +5V outputs are limited to 130W.
It accepts 90–264 VAC at 47–63 Hz. Rated input current is 8A RMS at 115 VAC and 4A RMS at 230 VAC.
The design includes BF Class insulation and a 4000 VAC input-to-output withstand rating corresponding to 2 MOPP. It also provides 1500 VAC input-to-ground isolation corresponding to 1 MOPP. Compliance of the finished medical device must still be assessed at system level.
Earth leakage current is rated at 250 µA maximum when operating from 264 VAC at 63 Hz. Engineers should consider this value alongside all other leakage paths within the completed equipment.
The rated full-load operating range extends from 0°C to +50°C. Above +50°C, the available output must be linearly derated, reaching 50% of rated power at +70°C.
The cable assembly provides one 24-pin motherboard connector, two 8-pin CPU connectors, one 6+2-pin PCIe connector, four SATA connections, two PATA connections and one floppy connection.
No. The -5V rail is an optional configuration available on request, with a maximum rating of 0.2A.
Overvoltage, overcurrent and short-circuit faults affecting the +3.3V, +5V and +12V rails cause a latching shutdown. Short circuits on -12V, optional -5V and +5V standby use automatic recovery.
Output rise time is below 20 ms, while the power-good delay is between 100 and 500 ms. The specified power-fail delay is greater than 1 ms.
The design is rated for operation at altitudes up to 5,000 metres. Thermal loading, cooling performance and equipment-level insulation requirements should still be checked for the intended installation.
