1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 347VAC input, rated current and 25 of ambient temperature.

2. Please refer to “DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE”.

3. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.

4. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the driver may lead to increase of the set up time.

5. It is measured 50% ~ 100% of maximum voltage under rated power delivery.

6. The driver is considered as a component that will be operated in combination with final equipment. Since EMC performance will be affected by the

complete installation, the final equipment manufacturers must re-qualify EMC Directive on the complete installation again.

(as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)

7. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED driver can only be used behind a switch without permanently

connected to the mains.

8. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 80 or less.

9. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL’s website at http://www.meanwell.com.

10. 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).

11. For any application note and IP water proof function installation caution, please refer our user manual before using.

DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE
This series works in constant current mode to directly drive the LEDs.

In the constant current region, the highest voltage at the output of the driver

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: 100A (typ.)
