Test conditions and notes8
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 3. Length of set up time is measured at cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the driver may lead to increase of the set up time.
- 4. Aux. 12V will be damaged with short circuit; It will not be available with dimming off or output no load condition.
- 5. The driver 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.
- 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
- 8. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED power supply can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.

FAQ
Can I use the Mean Well ODLV-65A-36 for 36V LED strip lighting?
Yes, this model is a constant-voltage LED driver with a 36V DC output, so it fits 36V LED strip lighting that stays within 64.8W total load. It can supply up to 1.8A at 36V. For wet-area or outdoor strip projects, the IP67 waterproof rating supports use where weather resistance is needed.
Is the ODLV-65A-36 suitable for 36V LED signage or sign lighting?
Yes, it is suitable for 36V constant-voltage LED signage and sign lighting as long as the total load does not exceed 64.8W. The 36V output and IP67 waterproof rating make it a fit for sign applications where sealed outdoor-rated power is required. Check that the sign lighting is specified for 36V constant-voltage operation.
Can this driver power 36V architectural or accent lighting?
It can power 36V constant-voltage architectural or accent lighting up to 64.8W total. This unit provides 36V at up to 1.8A, so it is meant for 36V lighting products rather than constant-current fixtures. Its case temperature (Tcase) rating of -20°C to +85°C applies, with load derating at higher temperatures.
How much 36V LED strip can the ODLV-65A-36 run?
The driver can support up to 64.8W total, so the strip length depends on your strip's rated power per meter. The sizing math is 64.8W divided by your strip watts per meter equals the maximum approximate length. Also make sure the strip is a 36V constant-voltage type and that the total current stays within 1.8A.
Is the ODLV-65A-36 okay for outdoor or wet-location use?
Yes, this model is rated IP67, which indicates a waterproof enclosure suitable for wet and outdoor environments. It is specified for a case temperature (Tcase) of -20°C to +85°C, with load derating at higher temperatures. Final suitability still depends on the rest of the fixture or enclosure using the same level of environmental protection.
How does the ODLV-65A-36 compare with the other ODLV series models?
In the ODLV-65 series, the related models are ODLV-65-12 and ODLV-65A-12 at 50.4W 12V 4.2A, ODLV-65-24 and ODLV-65A-24 at 57.6W 24V 2.4A, ODLV-65-36 at 64.8W 36V 1.8A, ODLV-65-48 and ODLV-65A-48 at 64.8W 48V 1.35A, and ODLV-65-60 and ODLV-65A-60 at 64.8W 60V 1.08A. The A-Type models add a 12V auxiliary DC output rated 50mA that the blank-type models lack. The ODLV-65A-36 itself is the 64.8W, 36V, 1.8A A-Type option in that group.
