Test conditions and notes6
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristic for more details.
- 3. The power supply 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)
- 4. 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).
- 5. For any application note and IP water proof function installation caution, please refer our user manual before using. https://www.meanwell.com/Upload/PDF/LED_EN.pdf
- 6. This product is not intended for LED lighting luminaire applications in the EU and China.(In the EU and China the LPF/NPF/XLG/XLC/XLN series are recommended.)

FAQ
What is the APC-25-700 typically used for?
The Mean Well APC-25-700 is typically used for constant-current LED lighting and moving sign applications that need a 700mA drive current. With 25.2W rated power over an 11~36V output voltage range, it is a fit for 700mA LED loads that operate within that voltage window.
Can the APC-25-700 be used for indoor LED lighting or sign projects?
Yes. The APC-25-700 suits LED lighting and moving sign applications, so indoor lighting and sign assemblies are typical uses when the connected load is designed for 700mA constant-current operation and fits within the driver's electrical rating.
Will the APC-25-700 run on common AC mains supplies?
Yes. The specified input range is 90-264VAC, so the APC-25-700 can operate from common 120V and 240V mains systems within that range. That makes it practical for broad indoor lighting deployment.
Is the APC-25-700 suitable for exposed outdoor installation?
No. The APC-25-700 is rated IP42, so it should generally be used indoors or in a protective enclosure rather than in direct outdoor exposure. Its listed working temperature is -30°C to +70°C (refer to the derating curve), but ingress protection remains limited.
How does the APC-25-700 compare with the APC-25-500?
The APC-25-700 provides 25.2W at 700mA over an 11~36V range, while the APC-25-500 provides the same 25.2W at 500mA over 15~50V. The main difference is current level: the APC-25-700 is for 700mA LED loads, while the APC-25-500 is for 500mA loads. The key selection rule is matching the driver current to the LED requirement.
