DescriptionThe

ELG-200-C series is a 200W LED AC/DC driver featuring the constant current mode and high-voltage output. ELG-200-C operates from 100~305V AC and offers models with different rated currents ranging between 700mA and 2100mA. Thanks to the high efficiency up to 93%, with the fanless design, the entire seriescano operate for -40°C~+85°C case temperature under
ree air convection. The design of metal housing and IP67/IP65 ingress protection level allows his series to fit both indoor and outdoor applications. ELG-200-C is equipped with various function options, such as dimming methodologies, to provide the optimal design flexibility for the LED lighting system.

DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULES

• This series works in constant current mode to drive the LEDs

In the constant current region, the highest voltage at the output of the driver depends on the configuration of the end systems. Should there be any compatibility issues, please contact MEAN WELL.

DIMMING OPERATION

3 1 dimming function (for B/AB-Type)

• Output constant current level can be adjusted by applying one of the three methodologies between DIM+ and DIM-:0 ~ 10VDC, or 10V PWM signal or resistance.
• Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested. It is not suitable to be used with additional drivers.
• Dimming source current from power supply: 100μA (typ.)

• DIM+ for B/AB-Type DA+ for DA-Type PROG+ for D2-Type
• DIM- for B/AB-Type DA- for DA-Type PROG- for D2-Type

Applying additive 0 ~ 10VDC

Applying additive 10V PWM signal (frequency range 100Hz ~ 3KHz)

Applying additive resistance:

DALI Interface (primary side; for DA-Type)

• Apply DALI signal between DA+ and DA-.
• DALI protocol comprises 16 groups and 64 addresses.
• The first step is fixed at 8% of output.

Smart timer dimming function (for Dxx-Type by User definition)

MEAN WELL Smart timer dimming primarily provides the adaptive proportion dimming profile for the output constant current level to perform up to 14 consecutive hours. 3 dimming profiles hereunder are defined, accounting for the most frequently seen applications. If other options are needed, please contact MEAN WELL for details.
Ex :
D01-Type: the profile recommended for residential lighting

TIME matches Operating Time in the diagram, whereas LEVEL matches Dimming Level.
Example: If a residential lighting application adopts D01-Type, when turning on the power supply at 6:00 p.m., for instance:

1. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 100% starting at 6:00 pm.
2. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 70% in turn, starting from 0:00am, which is 06:00 after the power supply turns on.
3. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 50% in turn, starting from 1:00am, which is 07:00 after the power supply turns on.
4.  The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 70% in turn, starting from 5:00 a.m., which is 11:00 after the power supply turns on.
5. The constant current level remains until til8:0amam, which is 14:00 after the power supply turns on.
6. 

TIME matches Operating Time in the diag, ram whereas LEVEL matches Dimming Level.
Example: If a street lighting application adopts D02-Type, when turning on the power supply5:00 pm00pm, for instance:

1. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 50% starting at 5:00 pm.
2. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 80% in turn, starting from 6:00 p.m., which is 01:00 after the power supply turns on.
3. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 100% in turn, starting from 8:00 pm, which is 03:00 after the power supply turns on.
4. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 60% in turn, starting from 1:00am, which is 08:00 after the power supply turns on.
5. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 80% in turn, starting from 4:00am, which is 11:00 after the power supply turns on. The constant current level remains till 6:30am, which is 14:00 after the power supply turns on.

D03-Type: the profile recommended for tunnel lighting

TIME matches Operating Time in the diagram,m, whereas LEVEL matches Dimming Level.
Example: If a tunnel lighting application adopts D03-Type, when turning on the power supply at 4:30 pm, for instance:

1. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 70% starting 4:3 at 0 pm.
2. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 100% in turn, starting from 6:00 pm, which is 01:30 after the power supply turns on.
3. The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 70% in turn, starting from 5:00 a.m., which is 11:00 after the power supply turns on.

The constant current level remains until til6:30 am, which is 14:00 after the power supply turns on.
