The RSP-1000 power supply was the first in Meanwell's lineup to offer a compact, low profile case that can fit a 1U 19" rack. The RSP-1000 power supply can be adjusted for 13.8V, 15V, 27.6V, 30V, 45V and 55.2V for battery replacement or battery charging applications plus many other potential applications!
The RSP-1000 has remote voltage sensing, a remote voltage control input, a DC OK control signal, a standby 5V 0.5A auxiliary voltage and remote on/off control, plus active PFC (Power Factor Correction)+, constant current limiting* on overload and short circuit with automatic recovery. It also has over temperature and over voltage protection and a 5 year warranty is provided. The RSP-1000 also allows parallel operation for up to 4 units or 4000W. An alternative is the PSPA-1000.
*constant current limiting is ideal for motor startup and other applications with high current, exceeding the maximum, at switch on. Also for 13.5V battery charging (with protective devices fitted).
Many voltages are available, the RSP-1000-12 = 12V@60A (12 x 60 = 720W), RSP-1000-15 = 15V@50A (15 x 50 = 750W), RSP-1000-24 = 24V@40A, RSP-1000-27 = 27V@37A and the RSP-1000-48 = 48V@21A. Please note that these Meanwell power supplies provide a "regulated" DC output and those less than 24V do not supply the wattage as suggested in the part no. (e.g. the RSP-1000-15 provides 15V at 50 Amps hence it supplies 15 x 50 = 750 Watts max. not 1000 Watts). The power supply operates from 100 to 240VAC input, is dual fan cooled and provides an output voltage adjustable by pot -15% to +10% min. Control via 2V..6V or resistive inputs allows the Output Voltage to be adjusted 40..110%. Weight 1.95kg, size 295x127x41mm. The small HRS 12 pin plug is included with this unit to allow you to make use of all the control functions.

All Meanwell products have a 2 to 7 year warranty. MEAN WELL Enterprises Co., is a Taiwan based company started in 1982 with strong ties worldwide (some well-known companies re-badge their products) and they provide excellent support and backup. Meanwell is a TQM (Total Quality Management) company and is ISO9001 certified. In 2017, the 2-year return rate was 1 in 6600. Meanwell power supplies are extremely reliable in our experience with only one unit DOA (Dead On Arrival) that was replaced and three returned during the warranty period in the 15+ years we have been selling... one power supply had been installed in a control box outdoors (for advertising) and had been attacked by a nest of ants! Meanwell now offers a range of fully sealed units (IP65 and IP67 rated)... please ask us for advice for outdoor and hazardous environments. For a company video - click here.
Some "on-the-web" comments... 1. "I have hundreds of 600 Watt 24V Meanwells running in the field and probably another 100+ 350Watt 5V running in the field and they are the most reliable piece of equipment compared to everything else. I've -never- replaced one in over 11 years, but I have replaced a lot of cruddy circuit boards designed or assembled by the less technically inclined (companies).", 2. "But in the end I've learnt a lesson here and that is spend the extra cash and buy some quality power supplies like the meanwell brand or else you could be in for a very frustrating time but I don't have the budget for that this year so I'll have to deal with what I have (sad face)". 3. Need a decent power supply... I can recommend mean well supplies. They are low end industrial supplies but are good quality, much better than no-name chinese supplies you can get from ebay etc.. I use mean well in lots of equipment and have had very few failures in thousands of hours of run time.
We also provide a download (or CDROM on request) with the documentation in PDF format and other information on Meanwell products.
All goods sold in Australia include GST, a tax invoice is provided.
EXPRESS DELIVERY INCLUDED.
*a re-written user manual is provided (also in PDF format on CD-ROM) because we care that all products that we sell have clear and easily readable information and instructions with adequate warnings about any dangers or precautions that need to be taken! Beware of "fakes" and "look-a-likes" (with logos of "M&W", "MiWi", "WH", "WeHo", "WaW" for example) these are often cheap, low quality products that do not meet the safety requirements for use in Australia. Also beware of purchasing this product from overseas as an Australian Warranty will not be provided. This unit has exposed 240VAC terminals and must be installed inside a suitable enclosure according to local electrical authority regulations. +NOTE, any power supply above 150W that does not have POWER FACTOR CORRECTION most-likely does not meet C-TICK or EMI requirements for use, on 240VAC mains in Australia! DO NOT BUY such power supplies, including the Meanwell SE-1000 (even if offered on Ebay). You can generally tell if a high-wattage (> 150W) power supply does NOT have "active" PFC because it will have a switch to select 115VAC or 230VAC. The advantage of "active" PFC is that not only is the AC mains current reduced (and of course "in phase" with voltage... something that power companies prefer), but the electrical interference (EMI) is reduced (less harmonics) BUT also it stablises the input allowing the AC voltage to vary greatly WITHOUT having to use a SWITCH which activates voltage doubling when the AC input is less than 180VAC.
