Test conditions and notes10
- 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 static characteristics for more details.
- 5. A-Type only.
- 6. Length of set up time is measured at cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
- 7. The power supply is considered as a component that will be operated in combination with final equipment. Since EMC performance will be affected by the complete installation, the final equipment manufacturers must re-qualify EMC Directive on the complete installation again. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
- 8. The water protection level test for the IP68 rating is performed 1000mm below the surface of the water for 1 month.
- 9. Refer to warranty statement.
- 10. 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 HEP-240-15 for 15V industrial control equipment?
Yes, this model is a constant-voltage 15V supply rated for 15A and 225W, which fits 15V industrial control loads that need a fixed 15V DC output. Its wide 90-264VAC input range (277VAC operational, also 128-370VDC) also helps when the AC source varies across different facilities.
Is the HEP-240-15 suitable for embedded systems or 15V electronics cabinets?
It can be used for embedded or electronics-cabinet applications that are designed for a 15V constant-voltage source and stay within 15A and 225W. The IP68 rating and 10G vibration tolerance are also useful in demanding cabinets.
Can this 15V power supply run outdoor automation or equipment in wet locations?
The HEP-240-15 has an IP68 rating, so it is intended for harsh environments where high dust and water protection are required. Its operating range of -55°C to +70°C also makes it suitable for demanding outdoor conditions when the connected load needs 15V DC.
Would the HEP-240-15 work for 15V signage, sensors, or other low-voltage field equipment?
It is appropriate for 15V field equipment when the system requires constant voltage and the total load does not exceed 15A or 225W. The 10G vibration tolerance and IP68 protection make it a better fit for tougher industrial or outdoor use than a basic indoor supply.
How does the HEP-240-15 compare with other HEP-240 models?
Within the HEP-240 group, the 12V versions are HEP-240-12 and HEP-240-12A at 192W and 16A, the 15V versions are HEP-240-15 and HEP-240-15A at 225W and 15A, the 24V versions are HEP-240-24 and HEP-240-24A at 240W and 10A, the 36V versions are HEP-240-36 and HEP-240-36A at 241.2W and 6.7A, the 48V versions are HEP-240-48 and HEP-240-48A at 240W and 5A, and the 54V versions are HEP-240-54 and HEP-240-54A at 240.3W and 4.45A. This HEP-240-15 is the IP68 15V, 15A version, while the A-suffix counterpart is the IP65 variant.
