Test conditions and notes12
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 3. 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)
- 4. This series meets the typical life expectancy >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is 70℃ or less.
- 5. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixture, this LED driver can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.
- 6. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 7. 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).
- 8. For any application note and IP water proof function installation caution, please refer our user manual before using. https://www.meanwell.com/Upload/PDF/LED_EN.pdf
- 9. Based on IEC 62386-101/102 DALI power on timing and interruption regulations, the set up time needs to test with a DALI controller which can support for DALI power on function, otherwise the set up time will be higher than 0.5 second for DA type.
- 10. RCM is on a voluntary basis. Non IC classification Independent LED control gear is not suitable for residential installations.
- 11. Products sourced from the Americas regions may not have the ENEC/BIS/CCC/KC logo. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
- 12. For A/AB/ADA type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application

FAQ
Can the ELGC-300-M-ADA run DALI-controlled LED downlights?
Yes, if the downlight is designed for 2800mA constant current operation and the LED load stays within the 58-116V CC range. This model adds DALI dimming support, but the load still needs to match the electrical requirements of a constant current driver.
Is this driver suitable for DALI-based small LED arrays?
Yes, for small LED arrays that are built for 2800mA constant current input and fit within the 58-116V constant current range. The number of LEDs depends on each LED's forward voltage, so the array has to be checked by total load voltage rather than a fixed LED count.
Can I use the ELGC-300-M-ADA with LED signage modules in a DALI project?
It can work when the signage module assembly is specified for 2800mA constant current drive and its total forward voltage falls within 58-116V. It is not intended for signage products that require constant voltage power instead of constant current output.
Does the ELGC-300-M-ADA fit outdoor or industrial lighting conditions?
Yes, it is rated IP67 waterproof and has a working case temperature (Tcase) range of -40°C to +85°C. That combination supports use in demanding indoor or outdoor environments where stronger sealing is needed.
How do I check compatibility with my LED load on this DALI model?
The LED load must be designed for constant current at 2800mA, and its total forward voltage needs to stay within the 58-116V CC range. The number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED, so compatibility is based on total load voltage rather than a specific LED count.
How does the ELGC-300-M-ADA compare with other ELGC-300 output classes?
Across the ELGC-300 family, H models are 301W at 5600mA with a 29-58V CC range, M models are 301W at 2800mA with a 58-116V range, and L models are 301W at 1400mA with a 116-232V range. The ELGC-300-M-ADA is the M-range DALI variant within that 301W platform.
