MEAN WELL MPM-65-15 is a PCB-mount medical AC/DC power module delivering 15 V DC at 4.33 A (65 W) by convection, with a conditional 4.77 A / 71.6 W peak rating for up to 10 seconds. It accepts 80–264 V AC or 113–370 V DC and provides Class II insulation with 2 × MOPP; BF application suitability depends on the completed system.

Model and mounting
| Complete model |
MPM-65-15 |
| Product type |
Isolated AC/DC medical power module, single 15 V DC output |
| Mounting configuration |
No suffix: PCB mounting version. |
| Model code |
MPM identifies the series; 65 identifies the family; 15 identifies nominal output voltage. Use the actual continuous and peak ratings below. |
Output and peak load
| Nominal DC output |
15 V |
| Continuous convection rating |
4.33 A; 65 W |
| Peak rating |
4.77 A; 71.6 W, for up to 10 seconds under the duty and average-power limits. |
| Ripple and noise, maximum |
120 mV peak-to-peak |
| Voltage tolerance |
±2.0%, including set-up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation. |
| Line / load regulation |
±0.5% / ±0.5% |
| Minimum load |
No minimum load required. |
Peak operation is limited to a maximum 33% duty cycle within every 30-second interval, and average output power must not exceed the continuous rated power. The peak duration, duty cycle, average power and thermal/input derating conditions all apply together.
Ripple and noise are measured with a 20 MHz bandwidth using a 12-inch twisted pair terminated with 0.1 µF and 47 µF capacitors in parallel. Unless separately stated, catalogue parameters use 230 V AC input, rated load and 25°C ambient.
Input, efficiency and timing
| Input range |
80–264 V AC or 113–370 V DC; output derating applies at low input. |
| AC frequency |
47–63 Hz |
| Typical efficiency |
92.5% at the catalogue reference conditions. |
| Typical AC current |
1.5 A at 115 V AC; 1 A at 230 V AC. |
| Typical cold-start inrush |
30 A at 115 V AC; 65 A at 230 V AC. |
| Set-up / rise time |
1000 ms / 30 ms at 230 V AC or 115 V AC, full load. |
| Typical hold-up time |
50 ms at 230 V AC; 12 ms at 115 V AC, full load. |
| No-load input power |
Less than 0.1 W. |
The 60 Hz input-voltage curve on PDF page 27 permits 80% load at 80 V AC, rising to 100% at 100 V AC and remaining at 100% through 264 V AC. Apply this together with the ambient-temperature curve. The block diagram identifies a 70 kHz switching frequency.
Protection
| Short circuit / overload |
Overload threshold: 115–135% of rated output power. Hiccup protection recovers automatically after the fault is removed. |
| Overvoltage |
15.8–20.3 V; output shuts down. Re-power the unit to recover. |
| Overtemperature |
Output shuts down; re-power the unit to recover. |
Temperature, cooling and altitude
| Working ambient range |
-30 to +80°C, subject to the applicable load derating curve. |
| Storage temperature |
-40 to +85°C. |
| Working humidity |
20–90% RH, non-condensing. |
| Temperature coefficient |
±0.03%/°C over 0–50°C. |
| Maximum operating altitude / overvoltage category |
4000 m / OVC II. |
For this 15 V version, the horizontal-mounting curve allows 100% load from -30°C to 50°C, then requires derating: 80% at 60°C, 50% at 70°C and 30% at 80°C.
Above 2000 m, reduce the allowable ambient temperature by 3.5°C per additional 1000 m for this convection-cooled module. A generic 5°C/1000 m note for fan-equipped models does not identify a fan in this version. The upper ambient limit is not a full-load rating.
Medical isolation and integration
| Insulation class |
Class II, double insulation; no functional-ground terminal. |
| Primary-to-secondary protection |
2 × MOPP (means of patient protection). |
| Input-to-output withstand voltage |
4 kV AC. |
| Input-to-output insulation resistance |
100 MΩ at 500 V DC, 25°C and 70% RH. |
| Maximum touch current |
Less than 100 µA at 264 V AC, measured from primary input to DC output. |
Suitable for BF (body-floating, patient-contact) applications only with appropriate system consideration. The module is a component, so the completed medical equipment and its applied-part isolation must be assessed as a system.
The specification lists IEC 60601-1:2005+A1; TUV BS EN/EN 60601-1:2006+A1+A12+A2; ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1:2005+A2; CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 60601-1:2014+A2; and EAC TP TC 004 approvals. Design reference to BS EN/EN 60335-1 is by request and is not a blanket approval for every delivered unit.
Catalogue application examples include portable medical devices, mobile clinical workstations, medical computer monitors and medical examination instruments.

Use the bottom-view PCB footprint on PDF page 28: AC/N and AC/L are the two input pins on the right of that drawing; −Vo and +Vo are the two output pins on the left. AC pins are 1 mm diameter and DC pins are 2 mm diameter, with 3.5 ±1 mm projection. The pin-column spacing is 76 mm, input-pin spacing 6.75 mm and output-pin spacing 5.5 mm. The drawing also gives 5.7, 5 and 40.75 mm coordinate references; use the complete footprint rather than a mirrored top view.
PCB soldering limits: wave soldering 265°C for 5 seconds maximum; manual soldering 390°C for 3 seconds maximum.
Use the model-specific installation drawing and the manufacturer installation instructions referenced in the PDF. The catalogue does not specify a separate mating-connector, bracket or wiring-kit order code for this version; it also does not give terminal torque or wire-gauge values. Select installation hardware for the actual mounting and electrical conditions.
