Mean Well HLG-240H-42B Power Supply 240W 42V- Dimmable

Yes. The HLG-240H-42B delivers 240W at 42V with a dimming input for 1-10V or PWM signals. Its IP67 waterproof rating makes it suitable for fully exposed outdoor flood, area, or security lighting where you want brightness control from a central dimming system.

Yes. The B suffix provides a dimming input that accepts 1-10V or PWM control signals, allowing automated light-cycle management from a grow room controller or timer. At 240W and 42V with a CC range of 21-42V, it pairs well with quantum boards and COB LED arrays that use a 42V drive voltage.

Yes. The IP67 waterproof rating and -40°C to +90°C operating range make it well suited for marine-adjacent and fully exposed coastal environments. The 240W at 42V capacity handles long runs of 42V strip, and the dimming input lets you control brightness for evening ambiance.

Divide 240W by your strip's power draw per meter. For a strip rated at 15W/m, that allows 16 meters (240W / 15W per meter = 16m). For a higher-output strip at 20W/m, you get 12 meters. Always check your strip's rated power per meter and stay within the 240W maximum.

Yes. The IP67 waterproof rating seals against dust and temporary submersion, and the operating temperature range of -40°C to +90°C covers tropical heat and humidity. The aluminium casing provides corrosion resistance and efficient heat dissipation in high-ambient-temperature environments.

No. The IP67 rating means the enclosure is dust-tight and withstands temporary immersion up to 1 meter. It is designed for outdoor use without an additional enclosure. However, orienting the cable glands downward and avoiding pooling water around connectors will maximize long-term reliability.
