Test conditions and notes5
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at normal input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. All the EMC tests are been executed by mounting the unit on a 360mm*360mm metal plate with 1mm of thickness. The final equipment must be re-confirmed that it still meets EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
- 5. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).

FAQ
Can the SD-15C-5 power 5V embedded electronics from a 48V or 60V system?
Yes, it is designed for constant-voltage 5V output from a listed 36-72VDC input range. With up to 3A output current and 15W total power, it fits low-power embedded electronics and control circuitry that need regulated 5V.
Is this a good fit for industrial communication or interface boards that run on 5V?
It can be a fit when the 5V board stays within the 3A and 15W limits. Its 36-72VDC input range and 1.5KVAC input-output withstand voltage suit higher-voltage industrial systems that need a small isolated 5V rail.
Can I use the SD-15C-5 in a compact automation cabinet for low-power logic loads?
Yes, this model is aimed at compact 5V logic loads rather than high-power devices. Its size is 78.0 × 51.0 × 28.0 mm and its weight is 0.18 kg, which helps in tighter equipment layouts.
What are the key differences between SD-15C-5 and the other SD-15C outputs?
The SD-15C group includes SD-15C-5 at 15W, 5V, 3A; SD-15C-12 at 15W, 12V, 1.25A; and SD-15C-24 at 15W, 24V, 0.625A. They are all 15W models, but each version changes the output voltage and output current.
Can the SD-15C-5 be used in hot or cold industrial locations?
The specified operating temperature range is -10°C to +60°C, with output derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve. The product data does not list an IP rating, so environmental sealing for dust or water is not specified here.
