Test conditions and notes11
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 347VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
  3. 3. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
  4. 4. 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.
  5. 5. 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)
  6. 6. 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.
  7. 7. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
  8. 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. 9. 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).
  10. 10. To prevent any Abnormal operation. Please install with two-way switch to AC input.
  11. 11. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ

Can I use the HVGC-1000A-L-AB for high-voltage constant current LED downlight systems?

Yes, this model is intended for constant current LED loads at 2800mA and supports a high 150-380V constant current range. That makes it a fit for LED downlight systems that need higher series voltage while staying within the 1003.2W rating.

Is this driver appropriate for signage modules built as high-voltage constant current strings?

It can be, provided the signage modules are designed for 2800mA constant current operation. It should not be used in place of a constant voltage supply for signage modules that require a fixed voltage output.

Can the HVGC-1000A-L-AB run a small LED array with a high total forward voltage?

Yes, this driver is the highest-voltage version of the 1000W group here, with a 150-380V CC range. It is suitable for a small LED array only when the array is rated for 2800mA constant current and its total forward voltage stays inside that range.

How do I check whether my LEDs are compatible with this driver?

Your LEDs must be designed for constant current at 2800mA, and the complete load must fall within the 150-380V constant current range. The actual number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED, so compatibility cannot be determined from LED count alone.

Is the HVGC-1000A-L-AB suitable for wet or harsh environments?

Yes, it carries an IP67 rating and is specified for a case temperature (Tcase) of -40°C to +90°C. Output load derating applies at higher temperatures, so check the output load vs temperature curve.
