FYI:
Meanwell do not recommend their fan based power supplies for outside use. As any moisture can cause them to fail. They only recommend for outside use their power supplies which attach to a aluminum case for example and are sealed from the elements. The case acts as a heat-sink.
Basically if you told Meanwell you placed a power supply with a fan vented to the outside, your warranty might be void.
I was going to use power supplies with extra fans which triggered on temperature, have now decided to use seal power supplies unfortunately they are more $$$$
