Output specifications

Model	HLP-80H-48; HLP-80H series.
Rated output	48 V DC; 1.7 A rated current; 81.6 W rated power. Observe all three model-specific limits.
Output load range	0–1.7 A; the load-current range is separate from the internal constant-current adjustment and dimming ranges.
Constant-current region	28.8–48 V DC. The typical I–V curve shows a 60% minimum voltage in the CC region and hiccup protection below it. The highest output voltage in CC operation depends on the end-system configuration; contact MEAN WELL if compatibility is uncertain.
Voltage adjustment	43–53 V DC, by the internal voltage adjustment control.
Constant-current adjustment	1.36–1.7 A, by the internal potentiometer. This range is distinct from external dimming.
Voltage tolerance	±1%, including setup tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
Line and load regulation	Line: ±0.5%; load: ±0.5%.
Ripple and noise	200 mVp-p maximum, measured at 20 MHz bandwidth using a 12-inch twisted-pair wire terminated by 0.1 µF and 47 µF capacitors in parallel.

Dimming and LED connection

LED connection	Use constant-current operation to drive LEDs as recommended by the catalog. Direct connection to LEDs is suggested; use with additional LED drivers is not suitable.
Dimming interface	Connect a resistance, 1–10 V DC or a 10 V PWM signal between DIM+ and DIM− at the output connector to adjust the constant-current level. Do not connect DIM− to the negative power output (−V).
Resistance dimming	Typical reference: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100 kΩ correspond respectively to 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100% of rated current for one supply. For N supplies in synchronized dimming operation, divide the corresponding resistance by N: 10 kΩ/N through 100 kΩ/N.
Voltage dimming	Typical reference: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 V DC correspond respectively to 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100% of rated current.
PWM dimming	10 V PWM, 100 Hz–3 kHz. Typical reference: duty cycles of 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100% correspond respectively to the same percentages of rated current.
Open dimming input	The typical tables give 95–108% of rated current with the dimming input open.
Full-off switching	The built-in dimming function cannot turn the lighting fixture completely dark. Use the external switch-and-relay connection shown in the catalog to turn the fixture ON/OFF and achieve 0% brightness; keep the dimming control connected across DIM+ and DIM−. The HLP-80H relay illustration labels the adjuster 0–100 kΩ, while the typical current-reference table covers 10–100 kΩ. The illustration does not establish dim-to-off at 0 Ω.

Input and operating performance

Input voltage and frequency	90–305 V AC or 127–431 V DC; AC frequency 47–63 Hz. Observe low-input derating.
Power factor	Built-in active PFC. Typical: >0.96 at 115 V AC, >0.96 at 230 V AC and >0.94 at 277 V AC, at full load.
Total harmonic distortion	<20% with output loading ≥60% at 115/230 V AC input, or ≥75% at 277 V AC input.
Efficiency	90% typical under the standard specification conditions.
AC input current	Typical: 0.85 A at 115 V AC, 0.425 A at 230 V AC and 0.4 A at 277 V AC.
Inrush current	70 A typical at cold start with 230 V AC input; pulse width 525 µs measured at 50% of peak current.
Leakage current	<0.75 mA at 277 V AC.
Setup and rise time	Setup 1200 ms at 115 V AC or 500 ms at 230 V AC; rise 200 ms at either input, at 95% load. Setup is measured at the first cold start; repeated power ON/OFF may increase setup time.
Hold-up time	16 ms typical at full load, with either 115 or 230 V AC input.
Switching frequency	100 kHz, as labeled in the block diagram.

Protection functions

Overcurrent protection	95–108%; constant-current limiting with automatic recovery after the fault condition is removed.
Short-circuit protection	Hiccup mode; automatic recovery after the fault condition is removed.
Overvoltage protection	54–63 V; output voltage shuts down. Reapply power to recover.
Overtemperature protection	Output voltage shuts down. Reapply power to recover.

Environment and derating

Operating temperature and derating	−40 to +70°C ambient, subject to derating. The horizontal-installation curve shows full load through +50°C, then 50% load at +70°C. The −40 to −25°C portion is specified for 230 V AC input only. Cooling is by free-air convection.
Low-input derating	The 60 Hz static-characteristics curve shows approximately 80% load at 90 V AC, rising to 100% at 100 V AC and remaining at 100% through 305 V AC.
Humidity and storage	Operating: 20–95% RH, non-condensing. Storage: −40 to +80°C and 10–95% RH.
Temperature coefficient	±0.03%/°C over 0–50°C.
Vibration	10–500 Hz, 2 G; 12 minutes per cycle, 72 minutes each along X, Y and Z.
Performance curves	The power-factor curve is for constant-current mode and is labeled 80 W. The efficiency-versus-load curves show the 48 V model at 115/230/277 V AC; use this model’s own typical efficiency rating rather than assigning the 48 V graph to every output variant.

Installation guidance

Installation isolation and service	Disconnect the supply from the mains before installation or maintenance and prevent unintended reconnection. Have faults examined by a qualified technician.
Ventilation and mechanical support	Keep ventilation clear and do not stack objects on the unit. Maintain 10–15 cm clearance when an adjacent device is a heat source. Follow this HLP model’s mounting orientation and derating diagrams. Check that the mounting surface and luminaire structure can support the installation, and use safety cables for bay lighting applications. Do not immerse the unit in water.
Wiring and system enclosure	Use approved input and output wiring with current ratings at least equal to the applicable unit current. Connect CN1 FG to PE and follow this model’s CN1 and CN2 pin assignments. Provide insulation around system interconnections and cover single-insulated wiring with the system enclosure. Keep output current and power within the model ratings and derating limits.
Dimming-controller compatibility	The HLP dimming circuit is not isolated from the secondary output. Use a controller compatible with this model’s DIM interface and follow its dimming and switching diagrams.
EMC integration	Reverify EMC in the finished equipment with the connected load and actual wiring and assembly. The HLP catalog records a 360 × 360 × 1 mm metal plate as the EMC test arrangement. The linked EMI guidance describes representative component-power-supply tests; its illustrated distances are test arrangements, not installation clearances.
Circuit-breaker reference	At 230 V AC, the installation manual gives calculated maximum quantities for HLP-80H with ABB S200-series breakers: B10 2, B16 3, C10 3, C16 5, D10 6 and D16 10. These counts apply to that stated breaker and voltage reference.
