Overview
IRM-15-12 is the 12V output model of this series: rated current 1.25A, rated power 15W, typical efficiency 82%.
IRM-15 is a 15W miniature (52.4*27.2*24mm) AC-DC 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 85~ 305 Vac. The 94V-0 flame retardant plastic case and potted with silicone enhance the heat dissipation and meet the anti-vibration demand up to 5G; moreover, it provides the fundamental resistance to dust and moisture. With the high efficiency up to 83% and the extremely low no-load power consumption below 0.1W, IRM-15 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 supreme EMC features keep the end electronic units from electromagnetic interference.

Test conditions and notes5
- 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 ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).
- 5. The power supply is considered as an independent unit ,but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that the whole system complies with the 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
What are the output ratings of the Mean Well IRM-15-12?
The IRM-15-12 is a 15W encapsulated AC-DC power supply with a 12V DC output rated at 1.25A. It is designed for applications that need a compact PCB-mount module with fixed 12V output.
What input voltage range does the IRM-15-12 support?
This model accepts a universal input range of 85 to 305VAC or 120 to 430VDC. That wide range makes it suitable for equipment intended for different regional mains standards without changing the power supply model.
Is the IRM-15-12 suitable for compact embedded equipment?
Yes. The IRM-15-12 is built for space-constrained designs with a compact 52.4 x 27.2 x 24 mm body and a 94V-0 flame-retardant plastic case. Its 15W output and encapsulated format make it a practical choice for low-power industrial and embedded electronics.
What protection features are included in the Mean Well IRM-15-12?
The IRM-15-12 includes short circuit, overload, and over-voltage protection. Its overload protection is specified at 115% to 190%, and over-voltage protection is specified at 115% to 135% of rated output voltage.
Can the IRM-15-12 be used in demanding temperature conditions?
This model is rated for operation from -30C to +85C, subject to the output derating curve. It is also convection cooled, so it is intended for designs where passive cooling and reliable operation over a broad temperature range are important.
How does the IRM-15-12 differ from a standard enclosed power supply?
The IRM-15-12 is an encapsulated compact module intended for integration into equipment rather than a larger enclosed chassis-style supply. Compared with bulkier enclosed units, it focuses on miniature size, low no-load power consumption below 0.1W, and easy fit into compact product designs.
