The Recom Power Module takes a standard 15W-60W converter and mounts it on a PCB with screw ter-
minals, an EMC filter, input protection circuitry and a built-in heatsink to offer a complete power module
that can be mounted on a bulkhead or on a standard DIN rail. The Power Module is primarily designed
for transport applications such as a GPS vehicle tracking power supply or a radio communications power
supply, but will also find many uses in industrial, communications or battery-powered applications.
How to use this datasheet:
1. Select the converter that suits your application from the converter series list below
2. Decide on DIN Mount (RPMD) or bulkhead (RPM) version
Ordering example: 40W, 18-75 VDC in, single 12Vout, DIN Mount = RPMD40-4812SGW
xx = Output Voltage Options Single Outputs: 3.3S = 3.3V 05S = 5V 12S = 12V 15S = 15V
Dual Outputs: 12D = ±12V 15D = ±15V
Refer to converter series datasheets for detailed information.
