NOTE

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25 of ambient temperature. 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12″ twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.

3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.

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

5. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristics for more details.

6. This is the maximum possible output current and power. Over load protection may be activated slightly below this level to comply with the requirement of UL1310 class 2.

7. Safety and EMC design refer to BS EN/EN60598-1, subject 8750(UL), CNS15233, GB7000.1, FCC part18.

8. The power supply 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)

9. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED power supply can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains. 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. PLC-100-12 is used for any light source that exempt from the ErP-Directive (EU) 2019/2020 requirement, for example this model could be

use for signalling products (including, but not limited to road-, railway-, marineorair traffic-signalling , traffic control or airfield lamps).

DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE

There are two major kinds of LED drive method “direct drive” and “with LED driver”. A typical LED power supply may either work in “constant voltage mode (CV) or constant current mode (CC)” to drive the LEDs. Mean Well’s LED power supply with CV+ CC characteristic can be operated at both CV mode [with LED driver, at area (A)] and CC mode [direct drive, at area (B)].

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.
