Test conditions and notes10
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC(115VAC for LPVL) 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. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristics for more details.
- 5. 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)
- 6. 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.
- 7. Suitable for indoor use or outdoor use without direct sunlight exposure.
- 8. 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).
- 9. 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
- 10. 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 LPV-150-48 suitable for at 48V?
The LPV-150-48 delivers 48V DC at up to 3.2A (153.6W total), making it appropriate for 48V LED strip systems, high-voltage LED modules used in linear commercial luminaires, and architectural lighting that benefits from reduced current draw over longer cable runs. Confirm your load is rated for 48V input.
How much 48V LED strip can the LPV-150-48 drive?
The driver's maximum output is 153.6W at 48V. Divide that by your strip's rated watts per meter to find the length limit — for example, at 20W/m the result is 7.7 m. Always check your specific strip's rated power per meter and apply a derating margin for reliability.
Is the LPV-150-48 rated for outdoor or wet-environment use?
Yes. The IP67 rating provides complete dust protection and resistance to temporary water immersion up to 1 meter, making it suitable for covered outdoor fixtures, landscape lighting, and enclosed outdoor signage. The operating temperature range is -25°C to +65°C.
Why might someone choose 48V over 24V for LED strip runs?
At 48V, the LPV-150-48 delivers 153.6W at only 3.2A, compared with 151.2W at 6.3A for the LPV-150-24 at 24V. Lower current allows longer cable runs with less voltage drop, which can simplify large installations. The trade-off is that the LED strip itself must be rated for 48V operation.
What certifications does the LPV-150-48 hold?
The LPV-150-48 is approved to UL8750, CSA C22.2 No.250.13, UL879, EAC TP TC 004 and IEC/EN62368-1, with IP67, and its EMC complies with EN55032 Class B, EN55035 and EAC TP TC 020, covering North American safety listing, the Eurasian Economic Union and European EMC standards.
