Test conditions and notes13

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 347VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
4. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
5. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
6. 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.
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. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 75℃ or less.
9. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
10. 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).
11. 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
12. For AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.
13. This product is intended for North America lighting equipment application. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales if you have other using.

FAQ

Can I use the HVG-65-48AB for outdoor sign lighting?

It can work for outdoor sign lighting when the LED load is a constant-current system that operates within the 28.8-48V range and draws up to 1.36A. The driver is rated 65.3W and the HVG-65 series is IP65 or IP67 approved, so it fits exposed lighting applications where the enclosure may see rain or dust.

Is this driver suitable for 48V architectural linear lighting?

Yes, if the fixture is designed for constant-current operation and its load falls inside the 28.8-48V constant-current range. This model provides up to 48V at 1.36A with 65.3W total output, which makes it a fit for many linear lighting assemblies built around 48V-class LED loads.

Can the HVG-65-48AB be used for LED strip or tape lighting?

It can only be used where the strip or tape light is compatible with a 48V constant-current driver, not just any 48V product. The output is 65.3W max at 48V and 1.36A, so the lighting load needs to match both the voltage range and the constant-current operating mode.

How much 48V LED strip can this 65.3W driver support?

Use the strip power rating to size it: maximum length = 65.3W divided by your strip watts per meter. For example, the total connected strip load must stay at or below 65.3W, and you should check your strip rated power per meter before calculating the final length.
