Mean Well APV-12E-15 Power Supply 12W 15V 800mA

The APV-12E-15 requires 180–264VAC input, making it appropriate for European and other high-mains markets operating at 230–240V. It will not operate correctly on 100–120V mains supplies. For universal input, the APV-12-15 covering 90–264VAC should be selected instead.

Both models output 15V at 0.8A (12W) and share the same 77.0 × 40.0 × 29.0 mm form factor. The APV-12-15 accepts a wider 90–264VAC input range and holds CB, CCC, CE, EAC, ENEC, and UL certifications. The APV-12E-15 accepts 180–264VAC only and carries CB, CE, EAC, and ENEC certifications, making it intended specifically for European-mains installations.

Yes. The APV-12E-15 delivers 15V at 0.8A, for 12W maximum output, directly from 230V European mains. It is suited to 15V LED strip or module loads in retail display furniture, countertop illumination, and small decorative fixtures — provided the total connected load stays within 12W.

The APV-12E-15 carries an IP42 rating, which covers protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm and vertically dripping water. It is not suitable for splash, rain, or high-humidity outdoor environments. Installations in wet or protected outdoor locations require a driver rated IP65 or higher.
