Test conditions and notes7
- 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 0.1μF & 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. 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. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please check the derating curve for more details.
- 6. Heat Sink HS1,HS2 can not be shorted.
- 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).

FAQ
Can I use the EPP-300-15 for 15V industrial test equipment or bench fixtures?
Yes, if the equipment is designed for a constant 15Vdc input and stays within 200W and 13.33A with convection cooling, or 300W and 20A with 20.5CFM airflow. This is a 15V constant-voltage supply (adjustable 14.25-15.75V), so it should only be paired with loads that call for 15V.
Is the EPP-300-15 suitable for embedded hardware that runs on 15V DC?
It can be a match for embedded assemblies, controllers, or subsystems that require regulated 15V constant-voltage power and draw up to 13.33A with convection cooling, or 20A with 20.5CFM airflow. The 90-264VAC input range is also useful where the AC source can vary between installations.
Can this model support a 15V automation or instrumentation load?
It is appropriate for 15Vdc instrumentation or automation loads when the total draw remains at or below 200W and 13.33A with convection cooling (300W and 20A with 20.5CFM airflow). Because the output is constant voltage, the connected device should be specified for 15V operation rather than a nearby nominal voltage.
Is the EPP-300-15 intended for outdoor use?
The published operating temperature is -30 degrees C to +70 degrees C, with output derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve. However, no IP rating is listed in the provided specs, so outdoor exposure or wet-location use is not established here.
