Meanwell IRM Series Date Code marking changes over time

For a Mean Well IRM-series power supply (IRM-01/02/03/05/10/20/30/45/60), the date code is laser-engraved on the unit. It is read in one of two formats, depending on when it was made.

Interim format, yyWww (starting 2017/7/25, lot Y1708C):

yy: the last two digits of the year

W: a literal “W” for week

ww: the week number

For example, 17W45 would be week 45 of 2017. This format has no factory character.

Final format, Syyww (lots from 2017/10/09, lot Y1710D, onward):

S: a character identifying the factory site

yy: the last two digits of the year

ww: the week number

For example, a code like X1832 would mean factory “X”, year 2018, week 32.

Older units have a sticker serial number in the form E*********, which doesn’t carry a year or week in the format shown in the notice below.
