Test conditions and notes12
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
  3. 3. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
  4. 4. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  5. 5. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
  6. 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. 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. 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. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 75℃ or less.
  10. 10. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
  11. 11. 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).

FAQ

Can I use the LPF-40-12 for 12V LED strip lighting?

Yes, it can be used for 12V LED strip lighting as long as the total strip load stays within 40.08W. It provides 12V output at up to 3.34A, so the strip voltage must match 12V and the total wattage must not exceed the driver rating.

Is the LPF-40-12 suitable for 12V LED sign modules?

It is suitable for 12V LED sign modules when the full sign load is 40.08W or less. The 12V output matches 12V signage products, and the IP67 housing makes it a fit for signs exposed to weather.

Can this driver power outdoor 12V accent or landscape lighting?

It can be used for outdoor 12V lighting loads that stay within 40.08W. The unit is rated IP67 Waterproof and specified for a case temperature (Tcase) of -40°C to +80°C, which supports use in wet and demanding outdoor conditions.

How much 12V LED strip can the LPF-40-12 run?

Maximum strip length depends on the strip's watts per meter. The math is 40.08W divided by your strip's rated W/m, and you should also confirm the strip is a 12V product and keep the total load at or below 40.08W.

Is the LPF-40-12 okay for wet locations or outdoor signage?

Yes, the IP67 Waterproof rating means it is intended for wet and outdoor environments. Its case temperature (Tcase) range is -40°C to +80°C, with load derating at high temperatures, so it is suited to both cold and hot conditions when the rest of the system is rated the same way.

How does the LPF-40-12 compare with other LPF-40 models?

Within the LPF-40 series, the fixed-output models are LPF-40-12 at 40.08W, 12V, 3.34A; LPF-40-15 at 40.08W, 15V, 2.67A; LPF-40-20 at 40W, 20V, 2A; LPF-40-24 at 40.08W, 24V, 1.67A; LPF-40-30 at 40.2W, 30V, 1.34A; LPF-40-36 at 40.32W, 36V, 1.12A; LPF-40-42 at 40.32W, 42V, 0.96A; LPF-40-48 at 40.32W, 48V, 0.84A; and LPF-40-54 at 41.04W, 54V, 0.76A. The main selection difference is matching the output voltage and current rating to the load.
