Test conditions and notes11

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC 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. 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.
5. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 75℃ or less.
6. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL’s website at http://www.meanwell.com
7. 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).
8. It is not recommended to connect to capacitive loads.
9. Flicker is measured at full load with the light source provided by MEAN WELL.
10. RCM is on a voluntary basis. Non IC classification Independent LED control gear is not suitable for residential installations.
11. Based on IEC 62368-101/102 DALI power on timing and interruption regulations, the set up time needs to test with a DALI controller which can support for DALI power on function, otherwise the set up time will be higher than 0.5 second for DA2 type.

FAQ

What is the MEAN WELL SPWM-150-12DA2Q designed for?

The SPWM-150-12DA2Q is a 150W constant voltage LED driver for advanced lighting systems that use 12V LED strips. This model is aimed at applications that need multi-channel control, including RGBW and tunable white lighting. It is positioned for projects where precise dimming and colour adjustment are important.

Does the SPWM-150-12DA2Q support DALI lighting control?

Yes. This model supports DALI-2 DT8 control and also supports PUSH dimming. That makes it suitable for lighting projects where central dimming control or tunable white and RGBW management is required.

What are the main electrical ratings of the SPWM-150-12DA2Q?

This LED driver is rated at 150W with a 12V constant voltage output. Its rated current is 12.5A. These specifications make it suitable for higher-power 12V LED lighting loads within the product's rated capacity.

How is the SPWM-150-12DA2Q different from a standard single-channel 12V LED driver?

The SPWM-150-12DA2Q is intended for advanced control scenarios rather than basic single-channel dimming. It supports DALI-2 DT8 multi-channel control and is described for RGBW and tunable white applications. That makes it a better fit when colour mixing or colour temperature adjustment is needed.

Is the SPWM-150-12DA2Q suitable for demanding indoor environments?

This model is specified for operation from -20°C to +80°C case temperature, which gives it a wide operating temperature range. It also uses fanless convection cooling, which can be useful where low maintenance and quiet operation are preferred. Buyers should still confirm that the full system design matches the environmental conditions of the project.

What warranty is provided with the MEAN WELL SPWM-150-12DA2Q?

The SPWM-150-12DA2Q is specified with a 5-year warranty period. That is consistent with a product intended for professional lighting applications. For B2B buyers, this can be relevant for project planning and long-term maintenance expectations.
