Model, output and control

Parameter Specification
Model PWM-90-24
Series and function code PWM-90; blank suffix: 3-in-1 dimming
Output mode Constant voltage with PWM-style output; dimming varies output-current duty cycle. Built-in active power factor correction (PFC).
DC output voltage 24 V
Rated output current 3.75 A
Rated output power 90 W
Output PWM frequency 1.47 kHz, fixed typical output waveform frequency.
Dimming interface 0–10 VDC, additive 10 V PWM at 100 Hz–3 kHz, or resistance between DIM+ and DIM−
Dimming range Catalog range 0–100%. Approximate minimum output duty 0.15% at 0.6 VDC, 6 kΩ (one driver), or 6% duty of the external 10 V PWM signal; lower input can dim the output to 0%.
Dimming source and synchronization 100 μA typical source current. Resistance scaling: 100 kΩ / N at full output, where N is the number of synchronized drivers. Do not connect DIM− to the negative LED output. Use a controller with capacity of at least 0.15 mA per PWM driver, as required by the installation instructions.

Dimensions and installation

Parameter Specification
Dimensions 171 × 63 × 37.5 mm (L × W × H); plastic housing.
Lead connections Input: AC/L brown, AC/N blue. LED output: +V red, −V black. Control: DIM+ purple, DIM− pink. Do not connect DIM− to negative LED output.
Cable specification Input: SJTW 18 AWG × 2C; LED output: SJTW 16 AWG × 2C. Control: UL2464 18 AWG × 2C. Lead runs: 300 ±20 mm; refer to the mechanical drawing for breakout lengths.
Mounting Use the model-specific drawing; 4.5 mm mounting holes. Maintain recommended horizontal mounting and keep the marked Tc point below the case-temperature limit.
Ingress protection Fully encapsulated IP67, for dry, damp or wet locations subject to the installation instructions. Suitable indoors or outdoors without direct sunlight; do not immerse or operate the product in water. Seal system interconnections and any waterproof connector against water ingress.
Installation Disconnect the supply before installation or maintenance and prevent inadvertent reconnection. Keep ventilation clear, do not stack objects on the unit, and leave 10–15 cm clearance when the adjacent device is a heat source. Approved primary/secondary cables must carry at least the unit’s rated current. Nonstandard mounting or high ambient temperature requires derating. Confirm controller compatibility; the catalog calls for 0.15 mA controller capacity per PWM driver. Insulate system interconnections and enclose single-insulated wires; do not dismantle the driver. Damaged external cables must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or an equally qualified person.
Dimming isolation Treat the analog dimming circuit as not isolated from the secondary output, as specified in the LED installation manual; provide appropriate system insulation.
Weight 770 g; catalog packing reference per unit (0.77 kg × 1000), not a measured net or shipping parcel weight.
Service-life reference Typical lifetime >50,000 hours when the marked Tc/TMP point is about +75°C or below. Manufacturer catalog warranty: 5 years, subject to MEAN WELL’s warranty statement; not an additional store promise.

Unless stated otherwise, catalog parameters are measured at 230 VAC input, rated current and +25°C ambient. Typical figures and load curves apply only to their stated conditions. Read the linked drawings and installation instructions before system design.
