Test conditions and notes9
- 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 of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 75℃ or less.
- 5. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixture, this LED drive 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. For A/AB/ADA 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 HBGC-300-L-ADA for high-forward-voltage LED downlights?
Yes, this constant-current driver is intended for higher-voltage LED loads that operate within its 116-232V constant-current range. It is a better fit for LED downlight arrays designed for constant current than for constant-voltage 12V or 24V lighting products. Total load still needs to stay within the driver's 301.6W rating.
Is the HBGC-300-L-ADA suitable for signage modules arranged in long series strings?
It can be suitable when the signage module string is a constant-current load and the combined forward voltage falls within 116-232V. The exact number of modules depends on each module's forward voltage, so there is no fixed LED count. This model is not intended for constant-voltage signage modules that expect a fixed DC voltage output.
Can this driver power a small LED array for an architectural lighting fixture?
Yes, if the LED array is a constant-current design and its operating voltage lands inside the 116-232V CC range. With a 301.6W rating, it is meant for substantial LED loads rather than low-power constant-voltage strips. The ADA version also supports DALI dimming for fixtures that use that control method.
How do I know whether my LED load is compatible with the HBGC-300-L-ADA?
Check that the fixture is designed for constant current, not constant voltage, and that its operating range fits within 116-232V under this driver's constant-current output. The exact number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED or module, so compatibility is based on total forward voltage rather than a fixed count. The load also needs to remain within 301.6W.
Can the HBGC-300-L-ADA be used outdoors or in harsh environments?
Yes. It has an IP67 waterproof rating and a case temperature (Tcase) working range of -40°C to +80°C, so it is built for demanding indoor or outdoor conditions. That makes it more suitable for exposed or enclosed lighting equipment than drivers intended only for dry indoor spaces.
