Test conditions and notes11

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 first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the driver may lead to increase of the set up time.
7. 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)
8. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Ta is about 45℃ 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. All functional testing must be filled with potting,including OTP function .

FAQ

What are the main output specifications of the Mean Well HBG-160P-48A?

The HBG-160P-48A is a 48V power supply rated at 160W class output, with listed power of 158.4W and rated current of 3.3A. It uses a constant voltage plus constant current output design. This makes it a model for 48V applications that need stable output in that range.

Is the output adjustable on the HBG-160P-48A?

Yes. This model is the A-Type, which has a built-in potentiometer for adjustment. The listed current adjustment range is 1.98A to 3.3A.

Can the HBG-160P-48A be used in outdoor or harsh environments?

The spec sheet does not state an IP rating, so confirm the ingress rating before outdoor installations where dust and water resistance are important. The specified ambient operating range is -40°C to +45°C, with load derating per the output load vs temperature curve. It is rated for 20-95% RH non-condensing.

What input range does the HBG-160P-48A support?

This model accepts a wide input range of 90 to 305VAC or 127 to 417VDC. It also has a built-in PFC circuit (PF≥0.98 at 115VAC, PF≥0.95 at 230VAC). That wide range is useful for buyers standardizing one model across different mains environments.

What safety and compliance standards are listed for this model?

The HBG-160P-48A is listed with UL8750, CSA C22.2 No. 250.13-12, ENEC BS EN/EN61347-1, BS EN/EN61347-2-13, BS EN/EN62384, GB/T19510.1, GB/T19510.213, and EAC TP TC 004 approvals. EMC standards listed include EN55015, EN61000-3-2 Class C, and EN61000-4 series items. These certifications are relevant for commercial and industrial LED power supply sourcing.

What distinguishes the HBG-160P-48A from a basic fixed-output 48V driver?

This model combines constant voltage and constant current operation, rather than serving only as a simple fixed-output supply. It also adds potentiometer current adjustment, built-in PFC, and over-current, over-voltage and over-temperature protection. For buyers comparing 48V options, those features make it a more flexible choice than a basic fixed-output unit.

What are the physical size, weight, and warranty for the HBG-160P-48A?

The mechanical drawing shows a circular case of about 124.6mm diameter, and the packing weight is listed as 0.4kg per unit. For the warranty, the sheet refers to the statement on MEAN WELL's website. It states a typical life expectancy of over 50,000 hours at an ambient of about 45°C or less.
