Test conditions and notes12

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
2. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
3. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
4. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
5. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
6. Length of set up time is measured at cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the driver may lead to increase of the set up time.
8. 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)
9. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 70℃ or less.
10. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
11. 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).
12. 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
13. For A/AB type need to consider build-in using or filling the Io adjusting hole with the potting compound to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ

Can I use the Mean Well HBG-160-24A for a 24V high bay or low bay LED light?

Yes, this model is intended for high bay and low bay lighting and has a circular housing that fits that style of fixture. It provides 24V output at 6.5A with 156W power, and its constant current operating range is 14.4-24V, so the light engine needs to match that range.

Is the HBG-160-24A suitable for 24V outdoor LED signage or wet-location lighting?

It is suitable for damp or outdoor exposure where an IP65 water-resistant LED driver is appropriate. The unit is rated IP65 and is specified for a case temperature (Tcase) of -40°C to +85°C, so the application still needs a compatible 24V, 6.5A, 156W lighting load.

Can this LED driver power 24V LED signage modules or strip-based lighting?

It can be used for 24V LED signage modules or strip-based lighting as long as the load stays within 24V, 6.5A, and 156W. It is a constant voltage + constant current driver, so it can run 24V constant-voltage loads or constant-current LED loads that operate inside the 14.4-24V constant current range.

How much 24V LED strip can the HBG-160-24A run?

The driver is rated for 156W total at 24V, so the strip load must stay at or below 156W. Use the strip's rated watts per meter and calculate length as 156W divided by the strip watts per meter, then confirm the strip is rated for 24V.

Can I use the HBG-160-24A in hot, cold, or industrial environments?

It is built for demanding environments, with a working case temperature (Tcase) range of -40°C to +85°C, with output derating at higher temperatures. It also accepts 90-305VAC input and carries UL8750, CSA, TUV EN61347 and EAC safety approvals, which is useful for commercial and industrial lighting projects.

What is the difference between the HBG-160-24A and other HBG-160 A-type models?

Within the HBG-160 A-type range, the 24V model is 156W at 24V and 6.5A with a 14.4-24V constant current range, the 36V model is 158.4W at 36V and 4.4A with a 21.6-36V range, the 48V model is 158.4W at 48V and 3.3A with a 28.8-48V range, and the 60V model is 156W at 60V and 2.6A with a 36-60V range. The main difference is the output voltage window and corresponding output current.
