OptiPlex 390 SFF 240 W power supply

Exact platform-and-assembly record for Dell L240AS-00 used in the Dell OptiPlex 390 Small Form Factor (SFF). Confirm the entire label, spare/FRU number and revision: similar host names can ship with electrically different supplies.

SAFETY: Never open a PSU or probe its interior. Hazardous voltage can remain after unplugging. Disconnect mains before service and replace the complete unit unless service is performed by a qualified technician.

Recorded model specifications

Exact model / FRUDell assembly identifier L240AS-00; verify all suffixes, spare number, revision and nameplate on the unit.
Host-system compatibilityDell OptiPlex 390 Small Form Factor (SFF) only when the system-board revision, machine type, chassis form and documented service configuration match. This is not a generic replacement PSU.
Form and rated outputOEM proprietary internal supply; rated total output class: 240 W. Per-rail/combined limits and continuous-load derating must be checked on the exact PSU label/service documentation.
AC input100–240 V AC, 4.0–2.0 A, 50/60 Hz; confirm unit nameplate.
DC output rails+3.3 V, +5 V, +12 V, −12 V and +5 V standby; total output is 240 W. Per-rail currents and combined limits are label/revision-specific.
Connectors / pinout warningDell keyed motherboard and CPU harnesses; do not treat this connector as standard ATX. A physically fitting plug does not prove electrical compatibility; never reuse unrelated modular cables or rely on an unverified adapter.
Mechanical envelopeApprox. 82 × 65 × 175 mm (width × height × depth); verify this assembly’s mounting envelope. Use the platform manual to check tabs, screws, airflow direction, fan clearance and cable reach; do not force-fit.
Electrical/revision caveatThe PSU rating label controls rail-current, combined-power, standby, protection and input details for the exact unit. A host service manual establishes supported platform replacement; it does not make the assembly an ATX standard supply.

Service and compatibility notes

  • Use only the documented Dell OptiPlex 390 Small Form Factor (SFF) replacement assembly or a manufacturer-authorized superseding part number verified against the actual machine type.
  • Confirm keyed motherboard/CPU/GPU connectors and pin assignments from the Dell service manual before replacement. Do not assume ATX, EPS or PCIe pinouts from connector shape.
  • Dimensions are nominal identification guidance. Confirm the exact part's labels, mounting geometry, vents and harness orientation before purchase or installation.
  • Follow the OEM manual's shutdown, mains-disconnect and chassis service steps. Never open or electrically probe the PSU.
