Test conditions and notes12
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 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. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristics for more details.
- 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. 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. Suitable for indoor use or outdoor use without direct sunlight exposure. Please avoid immerse in the water over 30 minute.
- 8. 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).
- 9. Products sourced from the Americas regions may not have the TUV/BIS/CCC logo. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
- 10. 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
- 11. 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.)
- 12. Products sourced from the China regions may not have the BIS logo, please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.

FAQ
What LED lighting is the LPV-20-15 designed to power at 15V?
The LPV-20-15 outputs 15V DC at up to 1.33A (20W total), suitable for 15V LED strip systems, small specialty lighting panels, and compact LED modules rated for 15V. Any 15V constant-voltage LED load within 20W can be powered by this driver.
How much 15V LED strip can the LPV-20-15 support?
With a maximum output of 20W at 15V, the supportable strip length depends on the strip's watt-per-meter rating. As an example, at 5W/m the driver supports up to 4 m. Always confirm your strip's rated power per meter before sizing the driver.
Can the LPV-20-15 be used in wet or outdoor environments?
Yes. The unit is fully encapsulated to IP67 and suits indoor use or outdoor use without direct sunlight exposure; avoid immersing it in water for more than 30 minutes. Combined with an operating temperature range of -30°C to +70°C (see derating curve), the unit is suitable for protected outdoor installations such as garden fixtures and exterior sign cabinets.
What input voltage range does the LPV-20-15 accept?
The LPV-20-15 accepts 90–264VAC, covering standard 110V/120V North American mains, 230V European mains, and everything in between. No input adjustment is needed when the supply voltage is within this range.
How does the LPV-20-15 differ from the LPV-20-12 and LPV-20-24 in the same wattage class?
All three LPV-20 variants share the same physical footprint (118×35×26mm) and 20W power class, but differ in output voltage and current: LPV-20-12 gives 12V at 1.67A, LPV-20-15 gives 15V at 1.33A, and LPV-20-24 gives 24V at 0.84A. Select the variant that matches the rated voltage of your LED load.
