Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the HLG-80H-48AB to power 48V LED strip lighting in a covered outdoor setting?

Yes. The HLG-80H-48AB delivers 80W at 48V and carries an IP65 water-resistant rating, so it is suitable for covered patios, canopies, and soffits where splashing water and dust are present. For fully exposed rain locations, consider the IP67-rated HLG-80H-48B instead.

Is the HLG-80H-48AB a good fit for dimmable 48V LED signage?

Yes. It provides 80W at 48V with built-in 1-10V/PWM dimming input, so you can adjust sign brightness remotely or via a building management system. The adjustable output also lets you fine-tune voltage and current with the built-in potentiometer to match your sign module string precisely.

Can I dim 48V LED panel lights with the HLG-80H-48AB?

Yes. The AB suffix means this driver accepts external dimming signals (1-10V or PWM), making it well suited for 48V LED panels in offices or retail spaces where brightness control is needed. The constant-current CC range of 28-48V accommodates panels that operate below the nominal 48V during dimming.

How many meters of 48V LED strip can the HLG-80H-48AB power?

Divide 80W by your strip's rated power per meter. For example, a 48V strip drawing 8W/m would allow up to 10 meters (80W / 8W per meter = 10m). Always check your strip's rated power per meter and keep total load at or below 80W.

Can the HLG-80H-48AB handle dust and moisture in a semi-outdoor installation?

Yes. Its IP65 rating protects against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, which covers covered walkways, building facades under eaves, and damp industrial spaces. It is not rated for submersion or direct sustained rain exposure — use the IP67-rated HLG-80H-48B for those conditions.

What are the differences between the HLG-80H-48, 48A, 48AB, and 48B variants?

All four share the same 80W / 48V / 1.7A core specs. The base HLG-80H-48 has fixed output and IP67 waterproof rating. The -48A adds output voltage/current adjustment via potentiometer (IP65). The -48AB adds both adjustment and 1-10V/PWM dimming input (IP65). The -48B offers dimming input only and retains IP67 waterproof rating.
