Test conditions and notes10

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
2. The rated power includes 5Vsb @ 0.6A.
3. The rated power includes 5Vsb @ 0.8A.
4. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
5. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
6. Derating may be needed under low input voltages. Please check the derating curve for more details.
7. Touch current was measured from primary input to DC output.
8. 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).
9. HS1,HS2 & HS3 can not be shorted.
10. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. All the EMC tests are been executed by mounting the unit on a 360mm*360mm metal plate with 1mm of thickness. 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

What is the Mean Well RPS-160-15 used for?

The RPS-160-15 is an AC/DC open frame medical power supply designed for equipment that needs a regulated 15V DC output. Its medical safety approval and low leakage current make it suitable for medical and other professional electronic applications where safety requirements are important.

What are the main electrical ratings of the RPS-160-15?

This model provides a 15V DC output with a rated current of 10.3A at 20.5CFM forced air, or 7.3A for convection cooling. The listed power rating is 159.5W with forced air, or 112.5W for convection, making it appropriate for systems that need moderate power in a compact open frame format.

Is the RPS-160-15 suitable for medical equipment?

Yes, this model is described as a medical power supply and is medical safety approved with 2xMOPP. It also features low leakage current below 200uA, which is an important characteristic for medical-use power supplies.

What protection features are included in the RPS-160-15?

The RPS-160-15 includes protection for short circuit, overload, over voltage, and over temperature conditions. These built-in protections help support safer operation in demanding equipment environments.

What operating temperature range does the RPS-160-15 support?

This power supply is rated for operation from -20°C to 70°C. That range makes it a practical choice for equipment used across a wide span of indoor operating conditions, provided the full system is designed for the same environment.

How compact is the Mean Well RPS-160-15?

The product description lists a compact 5 inch by 3 inch size, and the unit weight is 0.33 kg. That makes it useful for applications where board space and overall system weight matter.
