Overview

IRM-45-15 is the 15V output model of this series: rated current 3A, rated power 45W, typical efficiency 88.5%. Type Blank: PCB mounting style.

IRM-45 is a 45W miniature (87*52*29.5mm) 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 85~305Vac. The 94V-0 flame retardant plastic case and potted with silicone enhance the heat dissipation. PCB mounting style model(Blank) meet the anti-vibration demand up to 2G and screw terminal style model (ST) meet the anti-vibration demand up to 5G; moreover, it provides the fundamental resistance to dust and moisture. With the high efficiency up to 90.5% and the extremely low no-load power consumption below 0.15W, IRM-45 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. In addition to the PCB mounting style model, IRM-45 series also offers the screw terminal style model (ST).

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 complieswith 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

Can I use the IRM-45-15 for a 15V PLC accessory or industrial interface board?

Yes, if the load needs constant voltage 15V and stays within 3A and 45W, this model matches that requirement. Its 85-305VAC input also supports use where AC input ranges vary by installation region.

Is the IRM-45-15 a fit for 15V test, measurement, or embedded electronics inside OEM equipment?

It is intended for constant voltage 15V output and can support equipment loads up to 45W or 3A. The miniature encapsulated format and PCB mounting style make it appropriate for integration into internal equipment assemblies rather than field-exposed use.

Can this model power 15V control and monitoring devices in automation cabinets?

Yes, it can serve 15V control and monitoring circuits that require stable constant voltage and remain at or below 3A. Its operating temperature range of -30°C to +85°C (with derating at higher temperatures) supports use across a broad range of indoor industrial conditions.

How does the IRM-45-15 compare with other IRM-45 output options?

The IRM-45 family includes 5V at 8A and 40W, 12V at 3.8A and 45.6W, 15V at 3A and 45W, 24V at 1.9A and 45.6W, and 48V at 0.94A and 45.12W. This SKU is the 15V, 3A PCB mounting version, while the IRM-45-15ST keeps the same 15V and 3A electrical rating in screw terminal style.

Can the IRM-45-15 be used outdoors or in harsh ambient temperatures?

Its stated operating temperature is -30°C to +85°C, with load derating per the derating curve, so the temperature range is broad for enclosed equipment. The provided specs do not include an IP rating, so the data here does not confirm outdoor, washdown, or weather-exposed use.
