Test conditions and notes5
- 1. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
- 2. Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested, but is not suitable for using additional drivers.
- 3. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED power supply can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.
- 4. 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).
- 5. 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

FAQ
Can the PCD-16-700B be used with 700mA LED downlights?
Yes, if the downlight requires constant current at 700mA and the combined LED forward voltage stays within 16-24V. The driver is rated for 16.8W, so the load needs to remain within that output capacity.
Is this a good fit for signage modules on 180-295VAC input systems?
It can be, provided the signage module assembly is a constant-current 700mA load within the 16-24V constant-current range. This version is specified for 180-295VAC input, which is the main difference from the A version.
Can the PCD-16-700B power a small LED array instead of a constant-voltage strip?
Yes, if the small LED array is built for 700mA constant current and its forward-voltage demand falls between 16V and 24V. It is not intended for constant-voltage LED strips because the output mode is constant current.
What should I check before pairing the PCD-16-700B with LEDs?
Confirm that the LEDs need 700mA constant current and that the total forward voltage stays in the 16-24V constant-current window. The number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED, so there is no single fixed LED count for this driver.
Can the PCD-16-700B be used in dusty or damp areas?
The housing is IP42, so it is better suited to indoor or protected environments than directly exposed wet locations. Its operating temperature range is -30C to +60C, which defines the rated temperature window.
