Test conditions and notes11
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC 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 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance :includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 5. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m is needed for operating altitude greater than 2000m(6500ft)
- 6. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. 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)
- 7. Please refer to derating curve.
- 8. R type efficiency slightly less than the Blank type, according to the actual measurement.
- 9. Inrush current parameter has 10% tolerance.
- 10. RCM is on voluntary basis and meets relevant IEC or AS/NZS standards complying with AS/NZS 4417.1.
- 11. Some models or factory may not have the BIS marking , please contact MEAN WELL’s sales for more details.

FAQ
Can I use the UHP-500-15 for 15V industrial electronics or automation equipment?
Yes, when the equipment is designed for constant voltage 15V input and the load remains within 501W and 33.4A. This makes it a candidate for industrial electronics, embedded systems, and control hardware built around a 15V DC rail.
Is the UHP-500-15 suitable for 15V test benches or lab equipment with a fixed DC bus?
It can be used where the system needs a regulated 15V constant voltage supply up to 33.4A and 501W. The 90-264VAC input range also supports use in facilities with different AC mains standards.
Can this supply support multiple 15V subsystems inside a compact machine or panel?
Yes, if the combined 15V demand stays within 501W and 33.4A. Its 232.0 x 81.0 x 31.0 mm low-profile housing and fanless design are useful when space and airflow are limited.
What is the difference between the UHP-500-15 and the other UHP-500 voltage options?
The listed UHP-500 models are 4.2V 336W 80A, 5V 400W 80A, 12V 500.4W 41.7A, 15V 501W 33.4A, 24V 501.6W 20.9A, 36V 500.4W 13.9A, and 48V 501.6W 10.45A. This model is the 15V version, so it sits between the 12V and 24V options in output voltage while keeping similar overall power class.
Is the UHP-500-15 suitable for outdoor locations or high-temperature indoor use?
The operating temperature range is -30C to +70C, which supports wide-temperature indoor environments. The specs provided do not list an IP rating, so outdoor exposure suitability is not confirmed by the available data.
