Test conditions and notes12
  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. Current ripple is measured between 50%~100% of maximum voltage under rated power delivery.
  6. 6. 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)
  7. 7. 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.
  8. 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. 9. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com.
  10. 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. 11. 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
  12. 13. This product is intended for North America and EU lighting equipment application. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales if you have other using.

FAQ

Can I use the HVGC-150-500B for high-voltage LED downlights?

Yes, this driver is built for constant current LED loads at 500mA with a 30-300V constant current output range. That makes it suitable for LED downlight systems that are designed for a 500mA constant current driver rather than a constant voltage power supply.

Is the HVGC-150-500B suitable for LED signage modules or long series LED arrays?

It can be a fit for signage modules or small LED arrays when the load requires 500mA constant current and the total forward voltage stays within 30-300V. The number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED or module, so the match should be checked against the full series voltage, not by LED count alone.

Can this 150W driver run architectural or outdoor linear LED assemblies?

It is often used where a constant current 500mA output and up to 150W are needed for higher-voltage LED assemblies. The HVGC-150 series is IP65 or IP67 approved and works at a case temperature (Tcase) of -40°C to +80°C with load derating, supporting exposed or demanding environments when the fixture itself is rated accordingly.

How do I know if my LED load is compatible with the HVGC-150-500B?

The key checks are the required drive current and the total forward voltage of the LED load. This model is a constant current driver rated at 500mA with a 30-300V output range, so it is intended for constant current LED loads, not constant voltage products.

Is the HVGC-150-500B suitable for wet or harsh locations?

Yes, the HVGC-150 series is IP65 or IP67 approved, and the sheet notes a waterproof connector can be assembled on the output cable for wet, damp or outdoor environments. It works at a case temperature (Tcase) of -40°C to +80°C with load derating, provided the rest of the lighting system is rated for the same conditions.
