Test conditions and notes7
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1ΞΌF & 47ΞΌF parallel capacitor.
  3. 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  4. 4. Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
  5. 5. Load regulation is measured from 0% to 100% rated load.
  6. 6. 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 230mm*230mm 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 β€œEMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
  7. 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 RS-15-48 for a 48V industrial sensor or low-current control circuit?

Yes, it provides a constant 48V output and is rated for 0.313A. That makes it suitable for low-current 48V control loads, sensors, and light automation circuits that stay within its 15.024W capacity.

Is the RS-15-48 suitable for a compact telecom or networking accessory that needs 48V DC?

It can be used for compact 48V devices when the load is modest, because the output is limited to 0.313A. Buyers should confirm the equipment falls within the available 15.024W output.

Can this model power a small 48V relay or actuator control circuit?

It is intended for constant-voltage 48V applications with relatively low current demand. For relay logic, interface circuits, or similar automation loads, the main check is whether total draw remains at or below 0.313A.

Does the RS-15-48 make sense for space-limited industrial equipment?

Its dimensions are 62.5 Γ— 51.0 Γ— 28.0 mm and it weighs 0.13 kg. That makes it practical for compact equipment layouts that need a 48V output and no more than 15.024W.

Is the RS-15-48 rated for outdoor use or harsh temperature swings?

The operating temperature range is -20Β°C to +70Β°C, with output derating at higher ambient temperatures per the derating curve, which supports use across a broad indoor equipment temperature range. The provided specifications do not include an IP rating, so it should be treated as a protected indoor power supply rather than an exposed outdoor unit.
