Test conditions and notes11

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 347VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
2. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
3. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
4. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
5. 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)
6. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 80℃ or less.
7. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
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. 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. To prevent any Abnormal operation. Please install with two-way switch to AC input.
11. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ

Can I use the HVGC-1000A-M-AB for constant current LED downlight banks?

Yes, this driver supplies 4200mA constant current and is suitable for LED downlight banks that require that drive current. The connected load must also stay within the 95-240V CC range and the 1008W power rating.

Will this work with signage modules that need a constant current driver?

Yes, if the signage modules are specified for constant current operation at 4200mA. It is not a constant voltage power supply, so it is not the correct choice for modules designed around fixed-voltage input.

Can the HVGC-1000A-M-AB power a medium-voltage small LED array outdoors?

Yes, as long as the LED array is designed for 4200mA constant current and its total forward voltage stays within 95-240V. The IP67 waterproof rating and a case temperature (Tcase) range of -40°C to +90°C, with load derating at higher temperatures, support use in exposed conditions.

How should I judge LED compatibility with this 4200mA driver?

The LED load needs a constant current driver rated at 4200mA, and the total LED forward voltage must stay within the 95-240V CC output range. The number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED, so there is no single fixed LED count for this model.

How does the HVGC-1000A-M-AB compare with the other 1000W HVGC models?

The HVGC-1000A-M-AB is rated at 4200mA with a 95-240V CC range and 1008W. The HVGC-1000A-H-AB is rated at 5600mA with a 70-180V CC range and 1008W, while the HVGC-1000A-L-AB is rated at 2800mA with a 150-380V CC range and 1003.2W.
