MEAN WELL Medical Power Supplies
MEAN WELL offers power supplies with different levels of electrical safety protection specifically for medical applications.
The level of protection very much depends on the application in question.
For example, if your application involves a patient coming into contact with a medical device, then you are likely to need a medical power supply with 2 means of patient protection (2 x MOPP).
On the other hand, if the patient has no physical contact with the device, but the operator does, then you may want a power supply that has a means of operator protection (MOOP) built in.
MEAN WELL offers both types of medical power supplies within its range, which includes PCB-mounted power Supplies, Open-Frame Power Supplies, Enclosed Power Supplies, and Power Adapters.
