Test conditions and notes5
  1. 1.All parameters are specified at normal input(A:12Vdc, B:24Vdc, C:48Vdc), rated load, 25℃ 70% RH ambient.
  2. 2.Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz by using a 12" twisted pair terminated with a 0.1μf & 47μf capacitor.
  3. 3.Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
  4. 4.Load regulation is measured from 10% to 100% rated load for SCWN06, 25% to 100% rated load for DCWN06.
  5. 5.The final equipment must be re-confirm that it still meet EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.”(as available on http://www.meanwell.com)

FAQ

Can I use the SCWN06C-15 to generate 15V power inside industrial control equipment?

Yes, this model is intended for constant-voltage conversion where a 15V output is needed from a 36-72V input source. Its 6W rating and 0.4A output make it better suited to lower-power industrial control, embedded, or monitoring circuits than higher-current 15V loads.

Is the SCWN06C-15 suitable for embedded electronics that run on a higher-voltage DC bus?

It can fit embedded designs that need a regulated 15V rail from a 36-72V input range. The available output is 15V at 0.4A, so it is appropriate when the embedded load stays within the 6W output capacity.

Can this converter be used for low-power automation or sensing circuits that need 15V?

Yes, the constant-voltage 15V output is a match for low-power automation electronics that operate from a higher-voltage source in the 36-72V range. The key sizing limit is the 0.4A maximum output current and 6W power rating.

How does the SCWN06C-15 compare with the other SCWN06C models?

Within the 6W SCWN06C series, the SCWN06C-03 provides 3.3V at 1.2A, the SCWN06C-05 provides 5V at 1A, the SCWN06C-12 provides 12V at 0.5A, and the SCWN06C-15 provides 15V at 0.4A. All of these listed siblings are 6W models, so the main difference is the output voltage and current combination.

Is the SCWN06C-15 suitable for outdoor or harsh-temperature use?

This page lists an operating temperature range of -40°C to +90°C, which is broad for temperature exposure. However, no IP rating is provided here, so the product data does not indicate outdoor weather protection or sealed-enclosure performance.
