  7. 7. Only CE/ENEC/CB is available for CV-type. XLG-150I series without UL/CSA certificate.
  8. 8. 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)
  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).
  10. 10. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com

FAQ

Can I use the XLG-150-12-A for 12V LED strip lighting in display shelving or coves?

Yes, this driver is sized for 12V LED lighting loads up to 150W with 12.5A available output current. It is a fit for 12V strip-based accent lighting as long as the total strip load stays within 150W.

Is this a good choice for 12V illuminated signs or light boxes?

It can be used for 12V sign lighting when the sign load is within the driver's 150W maximum and 12V output. The IP67 housing also suits sign projects where the power supply may be exposed to rain or washdown conditions.

Can I use this power supply for outdoor 12V architectural or landscape lighting?

Yes, for 12V LED lighting loads up to 150W, this model is suitable for outdoor use because it is rated IP67 Waterproof. Its operating temperature range of -40°C to +90°C also supports demanding outdoor environments.

How much 12V LED strip can the XLG-150-12-A run?

The maximum strip load is 150W at 12V. To estimate strip length, use 150W divided by your strip's rated power per meter, and check your strip rated power per meter before final sizing.

Is the XLG-150-12-A suitable for wet or exposed locations?

Yes, its IP67 Waterproof rating means it is intended for environments where water and dust resistance matter more than an indoor-only supply. The metal case and -40°C to +90°C operating range also make it suitable for harsh conditions.

How does the XLG-150-12-A compare with other XLG 150W adjustable models?

Within the 150W adjustable group, XLG-150-12-A and XLG-150-12-AB are both 150W, 12V, 12.5A models. The 24V counterparts are XLG-150-24-A and XLG-150-24-AB at 150W, 24V, 6.25A, while higher-voltage 150W siblings include XLG-150-L-A at 214V and 1.05A and XLG-150-M-A at 120V and 1400A.
