Power Adapter MEAN WELL GST160A24-R7B

The MEAN WELL GST160A24-R7B is an AC-DC industrial desktop adapter with active PFC, providing a stable 24 V DC output at up to 6.67 A (160 W). It accepts a universal AC input from 85 to 264 V and uses a 3-pole IEC320-C14 AC inlet. The compact housing (72 × 175 × 35 mm) and RoHS compliance make this adapter suitable for equipment requiring reliable, environmentally compliant power.

Advantages

This power adapter delivers a continuous 160 W output with regulated 24 V DC and integrates power factor correction (PFC) for improved efficiency and lower mains distortion. The wide input voltage range allows global operation without additional converters. Its compact desktop form factor and standard IEC320-C14 inlet simplify installation and replacement in industrial and commercial setups. RoHS compliance ensures reduced hazardous substances.

Suitable for

• Industrial control equipment and automation devices
• Embedded systems, routers and network appliances
• Laboratory instruments and bench-top devices

How to use

Connect the adapter to the mains using a compatible IEC320-C13 power cord and verify the input voltage is within 85–264 V AC. Plug the 24 V DC output connector to the device requiring power, observing correct polarity. Ensure the adapter is placed on a stable, ventilated surface and avoid obstructing airflow around the unit during operation.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid loading the adapter beyond its 6.67 A rating and maintain ambient temperatures within the manufacturer's specified range. Allow space for ventilation, and use a fuse or circuit protection appropriate for the installation. Store and operate the adapter in dry conditions to preserve RoHS-compliant components.
