Eliminated power issues of imported devices! A case study of replacing non-compliant PSE adapters within 3 weeks

The AC adapter included with the imported equipment has not obtained PSE certification... If it's Unifive, a semi-custom version of the existing 24V product can be completed from analysis to mass production in just three weeks. We also welcome inquiries for small lots and short delivery times.

“Have you ever had issues like: ‘I installed equipment, devices, or LED lighting from an overseas manufacturer, but the included AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount lacked PSE certification...’ or ‘I want to import an overseas Products and sell it in Japan, but it doesn't bear the PSE mark...’?”

Inspection equipment for production lines, hotel lighting, office AV devices — the field may differ, but the challenge remains the same.

This time, we'll introduce a case study where we quickly solved a power issue with LED lighting for an equipment company using a semi-custom solution based on our standard product lineup.

Consultation Details and Background

Imported LED lights from an overseas manufacturer were scheduled to be delivered to a domestic hotel chain. However, the included adapters were not PSE compliant (with potential fire hazards). The importer refused replacement, making it essential to switch to a PSE-compliant item within a short lead time.

Our Solution

Step	Action	Effect
1	Analyzed the actual LED light and examined voltage and current	Accurately identified required specifications
2	Semi-customized existing 24V AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount	Minimized initial cost and lead time
3	Completed prototype → evaluation → mass production in about 3 weeks	Secured replacement schedule
4	Immediately submitted PSE testing report & technical documents	Accelerated internal approval process

[Point] Instead of a “fully customized” approach, we maximized use of existing assets to balance cost and development speed!

Results After Implementation
