Frequently Asked Questions
Can the APV-12-24 drive a 24V LED strip for retail display or signage?
Yes. The APV-12-24 outputs 24V at up to 0.5A, for a maximum of 12W. It is appropriate for short 24V LED strip runs used in retail display cases, menu board backlighting, or small decorative signage where the total load is 12W or less.
How long a run of 24V LED strip can the APV-12-24 support?
The APV-12-24 delivers 12W at 24V. At a strip consumption of 6 W/m, that equates to approximately 2 m of strip. Divide 12W by your strip's rated power per meter to calculate your specific limit, and check your strip's rated power per meter before sizing.
What are the differences between the APV-12-24 and its 24V siblings in the APV family?
The APV-12-24 provides 12W at 24V and 0.5A in a 77.0 × 40.0 × 29.0 mm housing. The APV-16-24 steps up to 16.08W at 24V and 0.67A in the same-size enclosure, and the APV-25-24 provides 25.2W at 24V and 1.05A in a larger 84.0 × 57.0 × 29.5 mm housing. All accept 90–264VAC input.
Does the APV-12-24 carry UL certification for use in North American projects?
Yes. The APV-12-24 carries CB, CCC, CE, EAC, ENEC, and UL certifications, making it suitable for North American and international LED lighting projects. It accepts 90–264VAC input, covering the full range of mains voltages globally.
