Model and application

Parameter Details
Full model APV-16-24
Series and model code APV-16 is the product series. The final code 24 identifies the 24 V output. The series wattage designation is not a substitute for this model's actual rated output power.
Operating mode Constant voltage. Use a load designed for 24 V constant-voltage operation and keep total current within 0-0.67 A and power within 16.08 W, with input and temperature derating applied.
Intended application LED-related fixtures or appliances, such as decoration or advertising devices. The manufacturer states that this product is not intended for LED lighting luminaire applications in the EU and China.
Application qualification Use the supply as a component in the final equipment. The equipment manufacturer must assess the complete installation and re-qualify EMC performance with the load, wiring and enclosure.

Line / load regulation Line regulation: ±1.0%; load regulation: ±2.0%.
Setup and rise time 1500 ms setup / 30 ms rise at both 230 VAC and 115 VAC, at full load. Setup time is measured at the first cold start; repeated ON/OFF operation may increase it.

Measurement basis Unless otherwise specified: 230 VAC input, rated load and 25°C ambient. Typical values depend on operating conditions.

Input and supply planning

Parameter Details
Input range 90-264 VAC, 47-63 Hz; alternatively 127-370 VDC. Apply the input-voltage derating curve.
AC input current 0.3 A at 230 VAC; 0.5 A at 115 VAC
Efficiency, typical 83% at the catalog measurement conditions; not a guaranteed efficiency at every input and load.
Cold-start inrush, typical 50 A at 230 VAC; pulse width 250 µs measured at 50% of peak current.
Leakage current 0.25 mA at 240 VAC.
Input-voltage derating At 60 Hz, the static-characteristic curve shows 80% load at 90 VAC, rising to 100% at 100 VAC; 100% is shown from 100 to 264 VAC. Apply the more restrictive thermal/load condition at the same time.
16 A circuit-breaker reference At 230 VAC the catalog lists up to 13 units on a Type B 16 A circuit breaker, or 22 units on a Type C 16 A circuit breaker. Use this reference with the actual circuit and installation requirements.

Protection and fault behavior

Parameter Details
Short-circuit protection Short-circuit protection is listed among the model features.
Overload protection Above 105% of rated output power; hiccup mode with automatic recovery after the fault condition is removed.
Overvoltage protection 27.6-32.4 V; output shutoff with zener-diode clamping.
Thermal operating limits Maintain the required ventilation and derate load as ambient temperature rises. Do not treat the upper ambient rating as a full-load rating.

Environment and derating

Parameter Details
Working ambient temperature -30 to +70°C, subject to the derating curve.
Cooling and temperature derating Free-air convection, with the horizontal orientation shown in the drawing. Full load is shown up to +40°C, then decreases linearly to 60% load at +70°C. Keep the input-voltage derating limit at the same time.
Altitude derating Above 2000 m (6500 ft), reduce the allowable ambient temperature by 3.5°C per 1000 m for this fanless design.
Working humidity 20-90% RH, non-condensing.
Storage temperature / humidity -40 to +80°C; 10-95% RH.
Temperature coefficient ±0.03%/°C over 0 to 50°C.

Enclosure Fully isolated plastic case, IP42 design. Observe the manufacturer installation instructions for the intended enclosure and environment.

Dimensions, leads and installation

Parameter Details
Body dimensions 77 x 40 x 29 mm (L x W x H); drawing tolerance ±1 mm.
Mounting outline The drawing shows 90 mm overall length across mounting tabs and 82.5 mm longitudinal mounting-center spacing.
Input leads UL1569, 18 AWG; 150 ±10 mm. Brown = AC/L; blue = AC/N.
Output leads UL1569, 20 AWG; 150 ±10 mm. Red = +V; black = -V. Match output polarity to the load.
DC-input polarity When using DC input, connect the brown L lead to the positive side and the blue N lead to the negative side.
Installation Class II design with no FG connection. Before installation or maintenance, disconnect the supply from the utility and prevent inadvertent reconnection. Keep proper ventilation around the unit and do not stack objects on it. When an adjacent device is a heat source, maintain 10-15 cm clearance. Keep lead-wire connections insulated and mechanically secured, and select approved cables rated for at least the unit current. Nonstandard mounting orientations or high ambient temperature require output-current derating. The installation manual limits APC/APV to equipment with a primary use other than lighting, such as copiers or overhead projectors, or to scale and display lighting; also observe the regional luminaire restriction above.
Case-temperature point The mechanical drawing identifies the tc / T case measurement point. Its location dimensions are not temperature limits.
Connection and mounting items This is a wired power-supply module. Select suitable connection and mounting hardware for the final equipment using the lead specifications and mechanical drawing above.

Catalog mass reference 100 g per unit (0.1 kg), from the PACKING field. This is the catalog packing reference per unit, not a measured net weight or a complete shipping-package weight.
Manufacturer catalog statement The manufacturer datasheet lists a two-year warranty and a 100% full-load burn-in test.
Regional markings The datasheet notes that units sourced from the Americas may not carry ENEC/BIS logos. Check the actual unit markings for the required market.
