Overview

IRM-20-24 is the 24V output model of this series: rated current 0.9A, rated power 21.6W, typical efficiency 85%.

IRM-20 is a 20W miniature (52.4*27.2*24mm) AC-DC module-type power supply, ready to be soldered onto the PCB boards of various kinds of electronic instruments or industrial automation equipments. This product allows the universal input voltage range of 85~ 305 Vac. The 94V-0 flame retardant plastic case and potted with silicone enhance the heat dissipation and meet the anti-vibration demand up to 2G; moreover, it provides the fundamental resistance to dust and moisture. With the high efficiency up to 85% and the extremely low no-load power consumption below 0.1W, IRM-20 series fulfills the worldwide regulation for the low power consumption requirement for electronics. The entire series is a Class Ⅱ design (no FG pin), incorporating the built-in EMI filtering components, enabling the compliance with BS EN/EN55032 Class B; the supreme EMC features keep the end electronic units from electromagnetic interference.

Test conditions and notes5

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230Vac input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
4. 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).
5. The power supply is considered as an independent unit ,but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that the whole system complies with the 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

Can I use the IRM-20-24 for a 24V PLC input card or industrial I/O module?

Yes, if the 24V control load stays within 0.9A and 21.6W. That output profile fits many low-power PLC-related electronics, remote I/O boards, and control interfaces that need constant 24V DC. The wide 85-305VAC input is also useful for equipment sold into different mains environments.

Is the IRM-20-24 suitable for embedded 24V automation electronics inside a machine?

It is suitable for embedded 24V electronics that need a fixed 24V output and do not exceed 0.9A. The encapsulated PCB-mount construction supports installation inside compact machine control assemblies. Its 52.4 x 27.2 x 24.0 mm size helps where enclosure space is limited.

Can this model power a small 24V relay logic or control interface board?

Yes, for small 24V relay logic, signaling, or interface boards whose total demand remains under 21.6W. The supply provides constant-voltage 24V output rather than constant-current operation. That makes it a practical option for low-power automation circuits designed around 24V DC.

Would the IRM-20-24 work in a compact industrial sensor hub or gateway?

It can work for a compact 24V sensor hub or gateway if the full load is within 0.9A. The miniature encapsulated package and 0.05 kg weight support dense internal layouts. It is best suited to protected equipment interiors rather than exposed field mounting.

Can the IRM-20-24 be used outdoors or in unprotected areas?

The operating temperature range is -30C to +85C, with output derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve, which supports use across a broad temperature window inside equipment. The provided specs do not list an IP rating, so the unit should not be treated as sealed for outdoor exposure by itself. For exposed locations, it should be placed inside an appropriate enclosure.
