The GCS Series has been designed to minimise the no load power consumption and maximise
efficiency in order to facilitate equipment design to the latest environmental legislation.
Approved for Class I and Class II applications, this range of single output AC-DC power supplies
are packaged in an industry standard 3.0" x 5.0" x 1.42" package and achieves EN55011/22
Level B emissions compliance whilst maintaining very low earth leakage currents, making them
suitable for a wide range of 1U and other industrial, IT and medical applications.

Notes
1. Add suffix -C for convection cooled cover, e.g. GCS150PS12-C.
2. Add suffix -EF for fan cooled cover with end fan e.g. GCS150PS12-EF. Note Vfan
output no longer available.
3. Add suffix -TF for fan cooled cover with top fan, e.g. GCS150PS12-TF. Note Vfan
output no longer available.
4. Add suffix -R for remote on/off, e.g. GCS150PS12-R, GCS150PS12-RC with
convection cover or GCS150PS12-REF/GCS150PS12-RTF with fan covers,
(remote on/off is standard on GCS350 models).
5. GCS250PS12-C & GCS250PS15-C models derate 20% when convection cooled.
6. GCS350 convection rating quoted at 40 °C, others at 50 °C.
7. GCS350-C models derate 15% when convection-cooled at 40 °C.

Estimated Service Life vs Component Temperature
In order to ensure safe operation of the PSU in the end-use equipment, the temperature of the components listed in the table below must
not be exceeded. Temperature should be monitored using K type thermocouples placed on the hottest part of the component
(out of direct air flow). See Mechanical Details for component locations.
--
The estimated service life of the GCS Series is determined by the cooling arrangements and load conditions experienced in the end
application. Due to the uncertain nature of the end application this estimated service life is based on the actual measured temperature of a
key capacitors with in the product when installed by the end application. The worst case of the two figures should be taken as the indicative
service life in 24/7 operation.
The graph below expresses the estimated lifetime of a given component temperature and assumes continuous operation at this
temperature.
