Test conditions and notes7
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance.
- 3. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristic for more details. Please connect L line to the positive pole and N line to the negative pole under DC input.
- 4. 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)
- 5. This product is not intended for LED lighting luminaire applications EU and China.(In the EU and China the LPF/NPF/XLG/XLC/XLN series are recommended.)
- 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. 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
What is the APC-12-350 typically used for?
The Mean Well APC-12-350 is typically used for small constant-current LED lighting and moving sign applications. It delivers 350mA constant current with 12.6W rated power over a 9-36V output range, making it a fit for LED loads designed around a 350mA drive current.
Is the APC-12-350 a good fit for 350mA LED loads?
Yes. The APC-12-350 is built as a constant-current LED driver rated at 350mA, so it should be matched to LED loads designed for that current level. The connected LED load also needs to stay within the driver's 9-36V output range and 12.6W rated power.
Can the APC-12-350 be used for indoor sign or accent lighting projects?
Yes. Indoor sign lighting, light-duty decorative lighting, and small LED assemblies are typical uses when the electrical requirements match the driver's 350mA constant-current design and 9-36V, 12.6W output.
Will the APC-12-350 run on standard AC mains input?
Yes. The specified input range is 90-264VAC, so the APC-12-350 can operate from common 120V and 240V AC mains systems within that range. That makes it practical for a wide range of general lighting installations.
Is the APC-12-350 suitable for exposed outdoor installation?
No. The APC-12-350 has an IP42 rating, which means it should generally be used indoors or in a protective enclosure rather than in direct outdoor exposure. Its listed working temperature is -30°C to +70°C (with derating), but enclosure protection still matters.
How does the APC-12-350 compare with other APC models?
The APC-12-350 provides 12.6W at 350mA with a 9-36V output range, while the APC-12-700 provides the same 12.6W at 700mA with a 9-18V range. The main choice is whether your LED load needs 350mA or 700mA constant current and which output voltage range it requires.
