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 75℃ 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-185H-30B for dimmable 30V outdoor LED lighting in rain-exposed locations?

Yes. The HLG-185H-30B combines a metal housing with IP65/IP67 ingress protection, designed for outdoor applications, with 186W at 30V output and a 1-10V/PWM/resistance dimming input. Waterproof connectors are available for the output cable in wet locations, and brightness can be controlled via an external dimming signal.

Is the HLG-185H-30B suitable for dimmable 30V LED flood lighting on building exteriors?

Yes. At 186W and 30V with dimming capability, it can power exterior flood lights, wall washers, or up-lights where brightness needs to change for different scenes or times of day. The IP65/IP67 ingress protection and -40°C to +90°C case temperature range (with derating at higher temperatures) support year-round outdoor operation.

Can the HLG-185H-30B drive dimmable 30V LED fixtures for outdoor commercial displays?

Yes. The 186W at 30V provides ample power for 30V LED display fixtures, and the dimming input allows brightness adjustment via 1-10V or PWM signal from a display controller or timer. The IP65/IP67-rated metal housing protects the driver in outdoor display installations.

How many meters of 30V LED strip can the HLG-185H-30B support?

Divide 186W by your strip's wattage per meter. For example, a 30V strip rated at 14W/m allows about 13.3 meters (186W / 14W per meter ≈ 13.3m). Always check your specific strip's rated power per meter and keep total load at or below 186W for reliable operation.

Can the HLG-185H-30B handle installation in a marine or waterfront environment?

The IP65/IP67-rated metal housing protects against dust and moisture ingress, working humidity is rated 20-95% RH non-condensing, and the case temperature range is -40°C to +90°C. The datasheet gives no salt-spray rating, so mounting hardware and cable connections should be marine-grade for waterfront locations.
