The most effective way to maximize service life is to manage the operating environment's temperature. Heat accumulation is a primary cause of premature failure.
Avoid installing the power supply in small or fully enclosed spaces without adequate ventilation. High operating temperatures accelerate the degradation of internal components, such as electrolytic capacitors, and significantly shorten the unit's lifespan.
