Test conditions and notes14

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
4. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
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. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED driver can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.
9. For OTP which triggered at light load/no load condition, proceed AC repower on to recovery.
10. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >62,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 80℃ or less.
11. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com.
12. 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).
13. 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
15. Products sourced from the Americas regions may only have the UL, CE and UKCA logos. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.

FAQ

Can I use the HLG-150H-42 to power 42V LED street or parking lot lighting?

Yes. The HLG-150H-42 delivers 151.2W at 42V with up to 3.6A in constant-current mode, which is well suited for 42V LED street lights or parking lot fixtures. Its IP67 waterproof rating and -40°C to +90°C case-temperature (Tcase) range make it reliable for fully exposed outdoor installations year-round.

Is the HLG-150H-42 a good driver for 42V LED high-bay warehouse lights?

Yes. At 151.2W and 42V, it can drive high-bay LED fixtures commonly used in warehouses and industrial spaces. The fanless metal housing is cooled by free air convection (derate the load at high temperatures per the datasheet curve), and the wide 90-305VAC input accommodates varying industrial mains voltages.

Can the HLG-150H-42 drive outdoor 42V LED flood lights?

Yes. The 151.2W output at 42V is sufficient for medium-power LED flood lights used in building facades, landscape accents, or security lighting. The IP67 waterproof rating means the driver can be mounted outdoors, even in direct rain; use waterproof connectors or a cable joiner for the wiring.

How many meters of 42V LED strip can the HLG-150H-42 power?

Divide the 151.2W rated power by your strip's power consumption per meter. For example, a 42V strip rated at 15W/m could run about 10 meters (151.2W / 15W per meter). Always check your strip's rated power per meter and keep the total load at or below 151.2W.

Can the HLG-150H-42 handle outdoor installations exposed to rain and freezing temperatures?

Yes. Its IP67 rating provides full protection against dust and temporary water submersion. The case-temperature (Tcase) range of -40°C to +90°C, with load derating at high temperatures, covers cold and hot climates, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use; make the wiring connections with waterproof connectors or a cable joiner.

What are the differences between the HLG-150H-42, 42A, 42AB, and 42B models?

All four share the same 151.2W / 42V / 3.6A core specs. The base HLG-150H-42 has no output adjustment and is IP67 waterproof. The -42A adds output voltage/current adjustment via built-in potentiometer and is IP65. The -42AB adds both adjustment and 1-10V/PWM dimming input (IP65). The -42B adds dimming input only and retains IP67.
