Test conditions and notes6
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
  3. 3. Length of set up time is measured at cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the driver may lead to increase of the set up time.
  4. 4. Aux. 12V will be damaged with short circuit; It will not be available with dimming off or output no load condition.
  5. 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.
  6. 6. 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).

FAQ

Can I use the IDLV-65-12 for longer 12V LED strip runs than a 36W driver?

Yes, this 12V constant voltage driver provides 50.4W and 4.2A, so it supports more 12V strip load than a 36W model. It is suitable for higher-capacity 12V strip lighting as long as the total load stays within 50.4W.

Is the IDLV-65-12 suitable for 12V LED signage applications?

Yes, it can be used for 12V LED signage where the sign lighting is designed for constant voltage operation and the total demand does not exceed 50.4W. The 4.2A rated output current is the limit for the total sign load.

Can this driver power brighter 12V accent or display lighting setups?

Yes, the IDLV-65-12 is intended for 12V constant voltage lighting and can support higher-load accent or display lighting up to 50.4W. Its 4.2A rated current makes it suited to larger 12V lighting loads within that limit.

Is the IDLV-65-12 appropriate for 12V cabinet or architectural strip lighting?

It can be a fit for 12V cabinet, cove, or architectural strip lighting when the system uses 12V constant voltage products and stays within 50.4W. Its 4.2A output supports moderate-to-higher 12V strip loads for these applications.

What LED strip length can I estimate from the IDLV-65-12?

The maximum available strip power is 50.4W, so estimated length is 50.4W divided by your strip's rated power per meter. Use the formula 50.4 ÷ watts per meter = maximum meters, and check your strip rated power per meter before choosing length.

Can the IDLV-65-12 be used in outdoor or wet environments?

The listed specifications do not provide an IP rating, so it should not be assumed suitable for outdoor or wet-location use based on this data alone. Its working temperature is specified as a case temperature (Tcase) of -20°C to +85°C, but that only addresses temperature, not moisture protection.

How does the IDLV-65-12 compare with other 12V models in the IDLV family?

In the IDLV-65 series the 12V model is rated 4.2A and 50.4W, the highest current but lowest power of the series (24V 57.6W, 36V/48V/60V 64.8W), with 85% typical efficiency. It comes as a Blank-Type or an A-Type, which adds a 12V/50mA auxiliary output.
