Model Code and Construction
Complete model
IRM-90-15ST
Series
IRM-90 industrial AC/DC power module.
Output code
15 V nominal DC output.
Mounting suffix
ST means screw-terminal style.
Housing
94V-0 flame-retardant plastic case with silicone potting for heat dissipation and fundamental resistance to dust and moisture.
Typical applications include industrial electrical equipment, mechanical equipment, factory automation and handheld electronic devices. Select the actual mounting version when designing the assembly; the PCB and ST versions have different dimensions, connections, weight and vibration ratings.
Output Ratings and Performance
Nominal DC voltage
15 V.
Continuous rated current
5.67 A.
Catalogue-rated output power
85.05 W.
Peak current / peak power
6.23 A / 93.5 W for up to 10 seconds.
Ripple and noise, maximum
150 mVp-p.
Voltage tolerance
±2.0%; includes setup tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
Line regulation
±0.5%.
Load regulation
±0.5%.
Efficiency, typical
92.5%.
Peak operation is limited to a maximum 33% duty cycle within every 30 seconds, and average output power must not exceed the continuous rated power. Apply both current and power limits together; the 10-second allowance does not remove either restriction.
Ripple and noise are measured at 20 MHz bandwidth with a 12-inch twisted pair terminated by 0.1 µF and 47 µF capacitors in parallel. Catalogue power and current retain their printed precision.
Input and Timing
Input voltage
80–305 VAC or 113–431 VDC.
AC frequency
47–63 Hz.
AC current, typical
1.9 A at 115 VAC; 1.1 A at 230 VAC.
Cold-start inrush, typical
30 A at 115 VAC; 65 A at 230 VAC.
Setup / rise time
1000 ms / 30 ms at 230 VAC; 1000 ms / 30 ms at 115 VAC, full load.
Hold-up time, typical
30 ms at 230 VAC; 10 ms at 115 VAC, full load.
No-load power consumption
Less than 0.3 W.
Leakage current
Less than 0.25 mA at 240 VAC; measured from primary input to DC output.
Block-diagram switching frequency
70 kHz.
Unless stated otherwise, catalogue parameters are measured at 230 VAC input, rated load and 25°C ambient. Typical values are not guaranteed minima.
Protection
Short circuit / overload
Short-circuit protection is listed. Overload operates at 115–160% of rated output power: hiccup mode with automatic recovery after the fault is removed.
Overvoltage threshold
15.8–20.3 V.
Overvoltage action
Output shuts down; re-power on to recover.
Overtemperature protection
Output shuts down; re-power on to recover.
Protection thresholds are not additional continuous-output or peak-power ratings.
Cooling, Derating and Environment
Cooling
Free-air convection; the ambient derating graph is for horizontal mounting.
Operating temperature
−30 to +85°C, subject to all applicable derating curves.
Temperature/load limits
The 100 VAC curve permits full load through 50°C; the 230 VAC curve extends through 55°C. Both reduce to 50% at 70°C, 25% at 80°C and 5% at 85°C. Follow the separate curves between their full-load knees and 70°C.
Input/load limits
At 60 Hz: 80% load at 80 VAC, increasing to 100% at 100 VAC; 100% from 100 to 305 VAC.
Working humidity
20–90% RH, non-condensing.
Storage
−40 to +85°C.
Temperature coefficient
±0.03%/°C over 0–50°C.
Vibration for this version
5 G, 10–500 Hz, 10 minutes per cycle; 60 minutes each along X, Y and Z.
Altitude and overvoltage-category scope
The feature page lists operation up to 4,000 m with Note 7 derating. The EN62368-1 OVC III statement is limited to 2,000 m; it does not establish OVC III approval at 4,000 m.
High-altitude temperature derating
Above 2,000 m (6,500 ft), reduce allowable ambient temperature by 3.5°C per additional 1,000 m for this fanless model.
Use the complete published curves for intermediate conditions. Apply input-voltage, ambient-temperature, installation and any peak-load restrictions together; +85°C is not a full-load operating point.
Mechanical Layout and Installation
Catalogue dimensions, L × W × H
109 × 52 × 33.5 mm.
Mechanical drawing tolerance
±1 mm, unless an individual dimension is separately toleranced.
Input terminal layout
As drawn in top view, AC/N is on the left and AC/L on the right. Input terminal pitch is 7.5 mm.
Output terminal layout
As drawn, the four terminals are −V, −V, +V, +V from left to right; adjacent pitch 5 mm. These are duplicated connections to one output, not four outputs.
Mounting geometry
Four Ø3.5 mm mounting holes; drawing centre distances 33 × 98 mm. The side drawing marks 6.7 mm at the mounting flange.
Use the version-specific drawing for the mounting footprint and polarity. The assigned catalogue pages do not state a separate accessory, mating connector or conversion-kit order code; do not assume a PCB module can be converted to an ST model by adding an unlisted kit.
Follow the manufacturer installation instructions and actual terminal markings. No terminal tightening torque, wire gauge, installation clearance or separately supplied mounting screw is specified in these pages.
Safety and EMC
Insulation design
Class II, with no FG pin.
Input-to-output withstand voltage
4 kVAC.
Input-to-output insulation resistance
100 MΩ at 500 VDC, 25°C and 70% RH.

Immunity framework
BS EN/EN55035 and BS EN/EN61000-6-2; BS EN/EN55014-2 also listed.
ESD, BS EN/EN61000-4-2: 8 kV air, Level 3; 4 kV contact, Level 2, criterion A. RF field (-4-3), EFT/burst (-4-4) and conducted immunity (-4-6): Level 3, criterion A. Surge (-4-5): 2 kV line-to-neutral, Level 4, criterion A. Magnetic field (-4-8): Level 4, criterion A.
BS EN/EN61000-4-11: greater than 95% dip for 0.5 periods, 30% dip for 25 periods, and greater than 95% interruption for 250 periods.
The final equipment must be checked for EMC compliance in its installed configuration. Silicone potting provides fundamental resistance to dust and moisture; these pages do not assign an IP ingress-protection rating.
