Test conditions and notes11

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 347VAC input, rated load 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 power supply 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.
8. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 80℃ 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. For any application note and IP water proof function installation caution, please refer our user manual before using.

FAQ

Can I use the HVG-480-24AB for dimmable 24V LED strip lighting?

Yes, this model is a 24V, 480W unit and is identified as adjustable and dimmable. It is suitable for 24V lighting loads up to 480W where a dimmable driver is required.

Is the HVG-480-24AB a good fit for 24V illuminated signage that needs dimming control?

It can be used for 24V signage loads up to 480W, and the AB version is the adjustable and dimmable option in this output class. Its 20A output current supports higher-load 24V sign lighting when the total connected load stays within rating.

Can this model be used for 24V display or retail lighting with brightness adjustment?

Yes, it is intended for 24V lighting applications and provides up to 480W at 20A. That makes it suitable for larger 24V lighting systems where a dimmable driver is preferred.

How do I estimate the maximum 24V LED strip length for the HVG-480-24AB?

Divide the driver's 480W maximum output by the strip's rated watts per meter. The formula is: maximum strip length = 480W / strip watts per meter, and you should verify the strip is 24V and that the full load stays within 20A.

What is the difference between the HVG-480-24AB and the other 480W HVG siblings?

In the 24V group, HVG-480-24A, HVG-480-24AB, and HVG-480-24B are all 480W, 24V, 20A models, while HVG-480-30A, HVG-480-30AB, and HVG-480-30B are 480W, 30V, 16A. The higher-voltage siblings are HVG-480-36A, HVG-480-36AB, and HVG-480-36B at 478.8W, 36V, 13.3A; HVG-480-42A, HVG-480-42AB, and HVG-480-42B at 478.8W, 42V, 11.4A; HVG-480-48A, HVG-480-48AB, and HVG-480-48B at 480W, 48V, 10A; and HVG-480-54A, HVG-480-54AB, and HVG-480-54B at 480.6W, 54V, 8.9A.
