Output and model selection

Model and function Standard version. CV function: constant-voltage operation only, fixed voltage/current settings, by request; not a constant-current driver.
Rated output 96 W; 12 V DC, 8 A rated current.
Output operating region 12 V constant-voltage operation only; the CC region of other function versions does not apply.
Output adjustment Voltage and current settings are fixed; no current-adjustment potentiometer or external dimming leads are specified for this suffix.
Ripple and regulation 150 mVp-p maximum ripple/noise; voltage tolerance ±3%; line regulation ±0.5%; load regulation ±2%.
Startup and hold-up Setup 500 ms / rise 100 ms at 230 VAC; setup 1200 ms / rise 100 ms at 115 VAC. Typical hold-up 12 ms at either 115 VAC or 230 VAC. Setup is measured at first cold start; rapid repeat switching may increase it.

Input and performance

Input supply 100–305 VAC or 142–431 VDC; AC frequency 47–63 Hz. The 60 Hz static curve permits full load across 100–305 VAC; thermal derating still applies.
Power factor At full load: PF ≥0.97 / 115 VAC, ≥0.95 / 230 VAC, ≥0.92 / 277 VAC.
Total harmonic distortion THD <10% at load ≥50% for 115/230 VAC, or load ≥75% for 277 VAC.
Typical efficiency 92%, at the specification reference conditions: 230 VAC input, rated current and 25°C ambient.
Input current 1.1 A / 115 VAC; 0.5 A / 230 VAC; 0.42 A / 277 VAC.
Inrush current Typical cold-start peak 50 A at 230 VAC; width 300 µs at 50% peak, per NEMA 410.
16 A circuit breaker loading 8 units on type B or 14 units on type C at 230 VAC, as listed in the datasheet.
Leakage current <0.75 mA at 277 VAC.
Low-load consumption No-load consumption <0.5 W for the standard version.

Protection

Short-circuit protection Hiccup mode; automatically recovers when the fault is removed.
Overcurrent protection 110–160%. Hiccup mode; automatically recovers when the fault is removed.
Output overvoltage protection 13.5–18 V; output shuts down. Re-power on to recover.
Overtemperature protection Output shuts down. Re-power on to recover.

Operating conditions

Case temperature Tcase −40 to +90°C; maximum case temperature +90°C. Measure the specified tc point, not ambient air.
Ambient derating Horizontal mounting: at 230 VAC, full load through 60°C ambient, reducing to 60% at 70°C; at 100 VAC, full load through 50°C, reducing to 60% at 60°C. At rated current in CC mode, typical maximum full-load Ta is 60°C / 230 VAC or 50°C / 100 VAC. Keep case temperature within its limit.
Cold starting The region from −40 to −30°C is marked for 230 VAC input only. Below 110 VAC at −30°C, restart may occur within 5 seconds after power-on.
Cooling and altitude Natural air convection. Above 2000 m altitude, reduce permitted ambient temperature by 3.5°C per additional 1000 m for this fanless model.
Humidity and storage Working humidity 20–95% RH, non-condensing. Storage −40 to +80°C, 10–95% RH.
Temperature coefficient ±0.03%/°C over 0–60°C.
Vibration 10–500 Hz, 5 G, 12 minutes per cycle; 72 minutes along each X, Y and Z axis.
Lifetime and warranty Catalog typical life expectancy >50,000 hours with the marked tc point about 80°C or below. Five-year manufacturer warranty, subject to its terms. Higher case temperature reduces expected life.
Reliability 2782.6 K hours minimum by Telcordia SR-332; 276.4 K hours minimum by MIL-HDBK-217F at 25°C. MTBF is not a service-life guarantee.

Control and dimming

Control arrangement This suffix has fixed output settings and does not provide an external dimming input.

Safety and EMC

Housing and classification IP67 metal housing, Class I input; connect the protective-earth lead. Check the exact model markings and certification scope.
CV certification restriction Only CE / ENEC / CB is available for the CV type. Do not apply the UL/CSA or other certificate claims of different suffixes to this CV version.
Regional marking Products sourced from the Americas may not carry PSE/CCC/BIS/KC logos; verify the exact unit and destination requirements.
Electrical insulation Withstand input–output 3.75 kVAC; input–FG 2 kVAC; output–FG 1.5 kVAC. Insulation resistance for these pairs: 100 MΩ / 500 VDC / 25°C / 70% RH.
EMC emissions Conducted/radiated: BS EN/EN55015 (CISPR15), GB/T17743. Harmonic current: BS EN/EN61000-3-2 and GB17625.1, Class C at load ≥50%; flicker: BS EN/EN61000-3-3.
EMC immunity BS EN/EN61547. ESD Level 3, 8 kV air and Level 2, 4 kV contact; radiated/EFT/conducted Level 3; magnetic field Level 4. Test series BS EN/EN61000-4-2, -3, -4, -5, -6 and -8.
Surge immunity 4 kV line-to-line, 6 kV line-to-earth. A 6 kV line-to-line / 10 kV line-to-earth option is listed; confirm the ordered modification before relying on the higher rating.
Voltage dips and interruptions BS EN/EN61000-4-11: >95% dip for 0.5 periods; 30% dip for 25 periods; >95% interruptions for 250 periods.
Final equipment and ErP Requalify EMC on the complete installation. For the catalog ErP lighting-fixture condition, use behind a switch rather than permanently connecting to the mains.

Dimensions and installation

Dimensions and mounting 140 × 63 × 32 mm (L × W × H), case 275B; drawing tolerance ±1 mm. Four Ø4.5 mm mounting holes, 134 mm longitudinal and 40 mm transverse spacing. Recommended mounting direction is horizontal on a flat surface.
Power wiring AC/L brown; AC/N blue; protective earth green/yellow. Output V+ red and V− black. Power leads 300±20 mm. Input SJOW 17 AWG × 3 cores / H05RN-F 3 × 1.0 mm². For this 12 V model the output cable is SJOW 14 AWG × 2 cores.
Case-temperature point The tc location is marked 57 mm and 24 mm from the mechanical drawing references; measure this case point when evaluating thermal limits.
Unit packing reference 0.58 kg per unit = 580 g, explicitly listed in the catalog packing row. This is not a measured net weight or the total carton weight.
Accessories and selection No dedicated MEAN WELL accessory order code is specified for this model in the inspected series sheets. Select suitable installation hardware and, where applicable, a compatible isolated dimming controller. Maintain IP67 sealing and observe the installation manual.

Installation manual requirements

Installation safety Disconnect the mains supply and prevent accidental reconnection before installation or maintenance. Have faults examined by a qualified technician; do not open the power-supply case yourself.
Ventilation and mounting Keep ventilation clear and do not stack objects on the unit. Keep 10–15 cm clearance when the adjacent device is a heat source. Follow this model’s mounting, ambient-temperature and output-derating requirements.
System wiring and protection Use approved primary and secondary wiring rated for at least the applicable unit current. Provide suitable system-level insulation and an enclosure around single-insulated wiring; verify EMC again in the completed system. Connect a fitted FG lead to protective earth according to the model wiring; the manual exempts only units marked Class II and ungrounded.
Environmental and load limits Do not immerse the unit or install it near fire or above its specified ambient limit. Keep output current and power within the model’s rated operating envelope. If a fitted external flexible cable is damaged, replacement is limited to the manufacturer, its service agent or a similarly qualified person.
Connection seals and support If waterproof connectors are fitted, secure their connections to prevent water entry. Verify the mounting structure and luminaire strength; use safety cables for bay-light applications.

Confirm the exact LED load, operating temperature, control interface and installation requirements against the linked datasheet and manual before commissioning.
