Temperature coefficient ±0.03%/°C over 0 to +60°C.
High-altitude derating Above 2000 m, reduce the applicable ambient-temperature limit by 3.5°C per 1000 m for this fanless converter.
General measurement conditions Unless specifically stated otherwise, parameters are measured at 12 V DC input, rated load and +25°C ambient.
Ripple measurement 20 MHz bandwidth; a 12-inch twisted-pair wire terminated with 0.1 µF and 47 µF capacitors connected in parallel.

Safety and EMC integration

Safety standards TUV BS EN/EN62368-1 and IEC62368-1 CB approved by TUV; EAC TP TC 004 approved.
Input/output isolation 1000 V DC.
Isolation resistance 100 MΩ between input and output, measured at 500 V DC, +25°C and 70% RH.
EMC emission Compliance with BS EN/EN55032 (CISPR32) Class B and EAC TP TC 020, subject to the stated component test arrangement and final-equipment verification.
EMC immunity Compliance with BS EN/EN61000-4-2, -3, -4, -5, -6 and -8; BS EN/EN55035, light-industry level; EAC TP TC 020.
EMC test arrangement The manufacturer tested the converter as a component mounted on a 230 × 230 × 1 mm metal plate. Reconfirm EMC compliance in the final equipment; the test plate is not stated to be a supplied accessory.
Required input capacitor Add a 47 µF / 100 V electrolytic capacitor with ESR <1 Ω to the input line for proper operation.
Suggested EMC input filter The input filter drawing shows 5.5 µH inductive filtering and a polarized 680 µF capacitor across the converter input, on the converter side of the inductive elements. The suggestion is marked “TBD”; confirm the finished filter design and component ratings with the manufacturer.

Mechanical details and ordering
