CHIEFTEC TASK SERIES TPS-500S 500W - PSU, 80 PLUS Bronze

The Chieftec TPS-500S is a 500-watt power supply unit designed for ATX-based computer systems. It holds an 80 PLUS Bronze certification, indicating up to 85% efficiency under typical operating loads, which helps to reduce wasted heat and energy consumption. The unit features active Power Factor Correction (PFC) to provide stable and reliable voltage to system components. This PSU utilizes a non-modular cabling design, where all cables are permanently attached for a direct and straightforward installation process.

For thermal management, the unit is equipped with a 120mm fan that provides active cooling to maintain internal temperatures during operation. A notable feature is the extended 650mm length of the motherboard and CPU power cables, which facilitates cleaner cable routing in larger chassis. The power supply incorporates multiple protection mechanisms, including Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Over Power Protection (OPP), and Short Circuit Protection (SCP), to safeguard connected hardware from electrical faults.
