Over 15 years experience of providing support of MEAN WELL Power Supplies
Overview
NHDD-40-100W is the model of this series: rated power 35W (typical), typical efficiency 94%. Type W: Wire style.
NHDD-40 series is a DC/DC LED driver. It operates from 360 ~ 420VDC and offers constant current output. Thanks to the efficiency up to 94%, with the fanless design, the NHDD-40 is able to operate for -30℃~+90℃ case temperature under free air convection. In addition,NHDD is a paritcular design for DC 380V Bus lighting application which can be combination with storang. This coincides with the developing trend that countries around the world have begun to implement of energy saving and carbon neutrality, how to combine renewable energy sources, and effectively integrate DC power grid and energy storage systems. MEAN WELL will continue to provide products corresponding with this goal in order to reduce the loss in the power conversion and create new DC power grid lighting applications.

Test conditions and notes7
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 380VDC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 3. 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.
- 4. Efficiency is measured at 100mA/380VDC.
- 5. The power supply is regarded as a part of the components in the system, and the final EMI test needs to be tested with the final device. If an additional EMI filter circuit is required to meet the electromagnetic compatibility requirements, please refer to the EMC test report for details. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
- 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).
- 7. Please evaluate this notice carefully to prevent high unexpected output current. Output voltage and total forward voltage of LED must step down at least 40VDC from input voltage. Maximum step down voltage should not exceed 80VDC.

FAQ
What type of LED driver is the Mean Well NHDD-40-100?
The Mean Well NHDD-40-100 is a constant current DC/DC LED driver designed for DC 380V bus lighting applications. This model delivers 100mA rated current and is intended for high-voltage LED systems that need a regulated constant current output.
What are the output characteristics of the NHDD-40-100?
This model is rated at 35W (typical) and 100mA, with an output voltage around 350VDC (typical). It operates from a 360-420VDC input range and is built for constant current performance rather than constant voltage output.
Is the NHDD-40-100 suitable for DC 380V bus lighting systems?
Yes. The NHDD-40 series is specifically described for DC 380V bus lighting applications, including systems that may be combined with green energy storage or intelligent lighting setups. That makes this model a targeted choice for commercial or industrial DC lighting architectures.
Does the Mean Well NHDD-40-100 support dimming or control functions?
Yes. This model includes PWM dimming capability and also supports remote ON/OFF control. Those features make it suitable for lighting systems that need external control beyond fixed-output operation.
What environmental and durability features does this driver offer?
The NHDD-40-100 uses a fan-less design with plastic, fully encapsulated housing, which supports reliable operation in demanding environments. It is rated for operation from -30°C to 40°C ambient and includes short circuit and over temperature protection.
What makes the NHDD-40-100 different from a general-purpose LED driver?
This model is differentiated by its DC/DC design for 360-420VDC systems and its focus on DC 380V bus lighting applications. It also combines high efficiency, up to 94%, with PWM dimming, remote ON/OFF control, and a compact lightweight form factor.
What warranty comes with the Mean Well NHDD-40-100?
The NHDD-40-100 includes a 5-year warranty from Mean Well. That warranty period is consistent with its positioning as a professional LED driver for long-term lighting use.
