Waterproof × Wide Temperature Supported - Custom Solution for “Invisible Power Supply” Used by FA Equipment Manufacturer

Achieved an AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount that meets IP waterproofing, operation from -20 to +60°C, and high output simultaneously through semi-customization utilizing existing assets. Introducing a case study of an FA equipment manufacturer who succeeded in mass production without any changes to equipment design.

With IP waterproof specification, -20 to +60℃, and yet no high-output AC/DC Power Adapters — Desktop & Wall-Mount...Are you facing such a problem?

A challenge that many FA equipment manufacturers face: "harsh environments × high power".

In this case, where existing lineups didn't match the specifications and "a major redesign of the device was the only option...", we solved the issue using our "semi-custom power supply".

Challenges Before Implementation

Standard products do not simultaneously meet both IP waterproof and wide temperature range (-20 to +60℃)
Due to insufficient output, forced to modify device design
Risk of missing the new product release schedule

Our Solution

Step	Measures	Effect
1	Reuse existing lineup 24V adapter as base	Minimize initial cost and lead time
2	Design waterproof case with new mold	Ensure IP rating while maintaining optimal size
3	Partially replace with components supporting wide temperature range	Maintain rated output even in -20 to +60℃

[Key Point] Instead of “full custom,” we maximized existing assets to achieve both cost-efficiency and development speed!!

Results After Implementation

Launched mass production on schedule with zero design changes
Handled additional specifications with stocked parts and new case on a short lead time
One-stop solution to the issue of “limited options”

“Development delayed due to power supply issues suddenly progressed!”
