Over 15 years experience of providing support of MEAN WELL Power Supplies
Overview
KDA-64 is used to connect a digital DALI lighting system to the KNX installation. Thus, room-based lighting control is conveniently incorporated into the higher-level KNX building management system. The device transforms switch and dim commands from the connected KNX system into DALI telegrams and status information from the DALI bus into KNX telegrams. KDA-64 is a Category 1 device (in accordance with EN 62386-103). This means the device must only be used in DALI segments with connected ECGs and not with other DALI control devices within the segment (No multi-master function). Power supply for the up to 64 connected ECGs comes directly from the KDA-64. An additional DALI power supply is not required and not permitted. The device comes in a 4 units wide DIN Rail casing so it can be directly integrated into the mains distribution box. Connection to the KNX bus is via a bus connector. DALI Bus is connected via screw connectors on the device. ECGs can be switched, dimmed and set to a defined value in 16 groups per gateway. In addition to group control, KDA-64 offers the possibility to individually control up to 64 ECGs.

FAQ
What does the Mean Well KDA-064 do?
The KDA-064 is a KNX to DALI gateway designed for smart building lighting control. It lets a KNX-based system manage DALI lighting devices and supports control features such as group and scene settings. This model is positioned as a cost-effective solution for smart building lighting, such as office, smart home and luxury villa lighting.
How many DALI devices can the KDA-064 support?
This gateway can work with up to 64 DALI ECGs or drivers. That makes it suitable for projects that need centralized control of a moderate-sized DALI lighting network. It also supports up to 16 DALI lighting groups and up to 16 DALI scenes.
Does the KDA-064 include a DALI power supply?
Yes, the KDA-064 includes a built-in DALI power supply. That is a useful differentiator for buyers looking for a compact gateway solution with integrated DALI bus support. It helps position this model as a practical option for smart building lighting control systems.
What control and interface features are available on this model?
The KDA-064 includes an LCD 2x12 display and supports lighting control via onboard buttons. It also includes an integrated web server for control access. These features give users multiple ways to manage and review the gateway's lighting functions.
What input voltage does the Mean Well KDA-064 accept?
This model accepts 100 to 240VAC input and also supports 142 to 339VDC. Its listed AC current is 0.1A, and its typical power consumption is 7W. These specifications make it suitable for a wide range of standard building power environments.
Is the KDA-064 suitable for demanding indoor environments?
The KDA-064 is rated for a working temperature range of -5 to +45 degrees C and 5 to 93% RH non-condensing, with an IP20 enclosure, so it is intended for indoor installation such as a distribution box. It also lists vibration performance from 5 to 150Hz along the X, Y, and Z axes. Buyers evaluating durability should also note its compliance with listed safety and EMC standards.
Which control systems is the KDA-064 compatible with?
This model is specifically designed as a KNX to DALI gateway, so it is intended for applications where KNX control needs to interface with DALI lighting devices.
