Overview

PLM-12E-1050 is the model of this series: rated current 1.05A, rated power 12.6W, typical efficiency 81%.

PLM-12 is a 12W economical AC/DC LED power supply series. Incorporating a built-in active PFC design, PLM-12 provides a high Power Factor value greater than 0.9. In addition, with the low no load power consumption below 0.5W, and the setup time less than 500ms, PLM-12 is complied with the ErP regulation required by European Union for lighting fixtures. PLM-12 is a class Ⅱ(without FG pin) power unit housed with the UL 94V-0 rated flame retardant plastic case. The I /O terminals are designed with screw-less clamp style terminal block that greatly simplifies the wiring installation. Two types of models with different input voltage range are offered: PLM-12 series, which operates from 110~295VAC, and PLM-12E series, which operates from 180~295VAC.These two series are both constant current output design, supplying models with the current of 350mA, 500mA, 700mA and 1050mA, respectively.

Test conditions and notes7

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC 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. Please see "AC input voltage drop vs. output current characteristics"table.
4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage, please check the static characteristic for more details.
5. Constant current operation region is within 60% ~100% rated output voltage. This is the suitable operation region for LED related applications, but please reconfirm special electrical requirements for some specific system design.
6. 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.
7. Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested, but is not suitable for using additional drivers.

FAQ

What is the Mean Well PLM-12E-1050 designed for?

The PLM-12E-1050 is a constant current LED driver intended for LED lighting applications that require a fixed 1050mA output. It is a 12.6W model in Mean Well's PLM series and is aimed at compact power supply use cases where active PFC and an isolated plastic case are desirable.

What are the key electrical ratings of the PLM-12E-1050?

This model is rated for 12.6W output power with a rated output current of 1050mA. The listed output voltage is 16V, and the product description identifies it as a constant current design with built-in active PFC.

Does the PLM-12E-1050 support dimming?

No. The specified dimming control for this model is "none," so it is not presented as a dimmable LED driver in the provided product data. Buyers needing dimming should compare it with a version that explicitly lists a dimming interface.

What input range does the PLM-12E-1050 E-type version support?

The product description states that the E type supports an AC input voltage range of 180 to 295VAC, or 254 to 417VDC. It is also described as a 230VAC-only or full-range family depending on model variant, so the E version is suited to that higher AC input range.

Is the PLM-12E-1050 suitable for demanding ambient conditions?

It is specified for operation from -30°C to 50°C, which makes it appropriate for a range of indoor or protected equipment environments within that temperature window. The housing is an isolated plastic case with IP30 design, so it should be evaluated accordingly for the intended environment.

What protection and reliability features are listed for this model?

The PLM-12E-1050 is described as having short circuit protection and cooling by free air convection. The product description also highlights high reliability, low no-load power consumption below 0.5W, and a 2-year warranty.
