Test conditions and notes10
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 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. 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  4. 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristics for more details.
  5. 5. 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)
  6. 6. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
  7. 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. 8. Products sourced from the Americas regions may not have the ENEC/BIS/CCC logo. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
  9. 9. 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
  10. 10. This product is not intended for LED lighting luminaire applications in the EU and China.(In the EU and China the LPF/NPF/XLG/XLC/XLN series are recommended.)

FAQ

What 5V LED applications can the APV-35-5 support at 25W?

The APV-35-5 outputs 5V at 5A for a maximum of 25W. It suits larger 5V addressable LED strip installations, 5V LED pixel display panels, and multi-section 5V LED lighting systems where the combined load does not exceed 25W.

How long a 5V LED strip can the APV-35-5 power?

The APV-35-5 delivers 25W at 5V. At a strip rated 5 W/m, that supports approximately 5 m. Divide 25W by your strip's rated power per meter to calculate your specific limit, and check your strip's rated power per meter before specifying.

What temperature range does the APV-35-5 operate across?

The APV-35-5 is rated for operation from -30°C to +70°C, with output derating at higher ambient temperatures (refer to the derating curve). Combined with its IP42 ingress protection, it is designed for enclosed indoor environments. For high-ambient or outdoor installations, enclosure thermal management and higher IP-rated drivers should be considered.

    Model: APV-35-24Quantity: 6

    Used the APV-35-24 to drive 5m of warm-white strip — dead quiet, no flicker on dimming.

  2. Compact and cool

    By Priya S.|2026-06-05✓ Verified Buyer
    Model: APV-25-24Quantity: 3

    Fits our enclosures nicely. Runs slightly warm at full load but well within spec.

  3. Reliable CV driver
