Test conditions and notes9
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
  3. 3. 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.
  4. 4. Efficiency is measured at 500mA/80V output set by DIP switch.
  5. 5. Current ripple is measured 60%~100% of maximum voltage under rated power delivery.
  6. 6. Standby power consumption is measured at 180~230VAC.
  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. 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 LCM-40 for higher-power LED downlights?

Yes, the LCM-40 is a constant current LED driver rated at 42W with a 700mA default output. At 700mA its CC range is 2-57V, and the DIP switch lets you select 350mA to 1050mA for LED downlights that need a different drive current.

Is the LCM-40 suitable for larger signage LED modules?

It can be suitable when the signage modules are built for constant current operation rather than constant voltage. This model delivers 700mA across a 2-57V CC range by default and is rated at 42W, with other current levels from 350mA to 1050mA selectable by DIP switch.

Can the LCM-40 power a small or mid-size LED array?

Yes, the LCM-40 is designed for constant current LED loads and is rated at 42W. With a 2-57V output range at the 700mA default, and ranges from 2-100V at 350mA to 2-40V at 1050mA, it can be matched to a range of constant current LED arrays.

How do I check compatibility for the LCM-40?

Confirm that your LEDs require a constant current driver and that their total forward voltage stays within the CC output range of the selected current: 2-57V at the 700mA default (2-100V at 350mA down to 2-40V at 1050mA). The number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED, so compatibility should be based on forward-voltage total rather than a fixed LED count or constant voltage assumption.
