Overview
IRM-90-48ST is the 48V output model of this series: typical efficiency 93%. Type ST: Screw terminal style.
IRM-90 is a 90W miniature (87*52*29.5mm) AC-DC PCB-mount module type power supply, ready to be soldered onto the PCB boards of various kinds of electronic instruments or industrial automation equipments. This product allows the universal input voltage range of 80~305Vac. The 94V-0 flame retardant plastic case and potted with silicone enhance the heat dissipation and meet the anti-vibration demand up to 2~5G anti-vibration by model; moreover, it provides the fundamental resistance to dust and moisture. With the high efficiency up to 93% and the extremely low no-load power consumption below 0.3W, IRM-90 series fulfills the worldwide regulation for the low power consumption requirement for electronics. The entire series is a Class Ⅱ design (no FG pin), incorporating the built-in EMI filtering components, enabling the compliance with BS EN/EN55032 Class B; the super EMC features keep the end electronic units from from electromagnetic interference. In addition to the PCB mounting style model, IRM-90 series also offers the screw terminal style model (ST).

Test conditions and notes8
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230Vac input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. 33% Duty cycle maximum within every 30 seconds. Average output power should not exceed the rated power.
- 3. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
- 4. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 5. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 6. Leakage current was measured from primary input to DC output.
- 7. 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).
- 8. 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 )

FAQ
Can I use the IRM-90-48ST for a 48V industrial control cabinet or panel supply?
Yes, it is a constant-voltage 48V power supply rated for up to 1.88A and 90.2W, which fits many industrial control and panel-level 48V loads. The screw terminal style makes it a practical choice where a compact encapsulated supply is needed in control equipment powered from 80-305VAC.
Is the IRM-90-48ST a good fit for 48V building automation or machine-control subsystems?
It can be used for 48V automation and machine-control subsystems when the connected load requires constant 48V DC and stays within 1.88A. The wide 80-305VAC input range also makes it usable across installations with different AC input conditions.
Can this model power a 48V communications, alarm, or supervisory device inside equipment?
Yes, it can support 48V communications, alarm, or supervisory devices in enclosed equipment as long as total demand does not exceed 90.2W. This model is best matched to applications that need a fixed 48V output rather than an adjustable or constant-current source.
Would the IRM-90-48ST work for a serviceable OEM product that uses 48V DC internally?
It is suitable for OEM products that need internal 48V DC power up to 1.88A and benefit from an encapsulated construction. Compared with the PCB mounting version, this ST version uses a screw terminal style and has a larger 109.0 × 52.0 × 33.5 mm footprint at 0.219 kg.
What is the difference between the IRM-90-48ST and IRM-90-48?
Both models have the same electrical rating: 90.2W, 48V, 1.88A, constant-voltage operation, 80-305VAC input, and -40°C to +85°C operating temperature (with derating per the derating curve). The difference is the mechanical format: IRM-90-48 is PCB mounting style at 87.0 × 52.0 × 29.5 mm and 0.197 kg, while IRM-90-48ST is screw terminal style at 109.0 × 52.0 × 33.5 mm and 0.219 kg.
Can the IRM-90-48ST be used in outdoor or temperature-variable locations?
Its rated operating range is -40°C to +85°C, with output derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve, so the temperature specification covers both cold and hot equipment environments. No IP rating is provided in the listed specs, so it should be used in protected indoor housings or sheltered enclosures instead of exposed outdoor conditions.
