4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for proper installation:

Mounting: Securely mount the power supply in a location that allows for adequate air circulation. Ensure the mounting surface is stable and can support the unit's weight. The IP67 rating allows for outdoor installation, but avoid direct exposure to extreme conditions if possible.
Input Wiring (AC): Connect the AC input wires to the power supply. The unit accepts a wide input voltage range of 90-305VAC. Ensure correct polarity: Live (L), Neutral (N), and Ground (GND). Use appropriate wire gauges for the current draw.
Output Wiring (DC): Connect the DC output wires to your 24V constant voltage LED load. Observe correct polarity: Positive (+) and Negative (-). Ensure the total wattage of your LED load does not exceed 60W.
Dimming Control (if applicable): If using the dimming feature, connect the dimming control wires according to the specific dimming protocol (e.g., 0-10V, PWM, Resistance). Refer to the specific dimming interface instructions for detailed wiring.
Verify Connections: Double-check all wiring connections to ensure they are secure and correctly polarized.
Power On: Once all connections are verified, apply power to the unit.

Note: For optimal performance and longevity, avoid installing the power supply in areas with excessive heat, humidity, or direct sunlight.

5. Operating Instructions

The MeanWell PWM-60-24 operates automatically once properly installed and powered. It provides a stable 24V constant voltage output to the connected LED load.

Power On/Off: The unit powers on when AC input is supplied and powers off when AC input is removed.
Dimming: If connected to a compatible dimming controller, adjust the dimming level as per the controller's instructions. The PWM-60-24 supports various dimming methods to control the brightness of your LEDs.

6. Maintenance

The MeanWell PWM-60-24 is designed for reliable, long-term operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can help ensure optimal performance.

Cleaning: Periodically clean the exterior of the unit to remove dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
Inspection: Annually inspect all wiring connections for tightness and signs of wear or damage. Check for any discoloration or unusual odors, which may indicate overheating.
Ventilation: Ensure that the area around the power supply remains clear and that airflow is not obstructed.

There are no user-serviceable parts inside this unit. Do not attempt to open or repair the power supply. Doing so will void the warranty and may pose a safety hazard.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your MeanWell PWM-60-24 Power Supply, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
No output power / LEDs not lighting up	No AC input power. Incorrect wiring (input or output). Overload or short circuit on output. Faulty LED load.	Check AC power source and connections. Verify all wiring according to Section 4. Disconnect load and check for short circuit. Ensure total load is within 60W. Test the LED load with another known good power supply if possible.
LEDs flickering or unstable output	Loose connections. Incompatible dimming controller. Overheating.	Check and secure all wiring connections. Ensure dimming controller is compatible with CV dimmable drivers. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.
Unit is hot to the touch	Insufficient ventilation. Overload.	Improve airflow around the unit. Reduce the connected load to ensure it is within the 60W limit.

If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact the manufacturer or your supplier for further assistance.
