Test conditions and notes5
- 1. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
- 2. Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested, but is not suitable for using additional drivers.
- 3. 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.
- 4. 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).
- 5. 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

FAQ
Can the PCD-16-1400B power a 1400mA LED downlight on higher-voltage AC input?
Yes, if the fixture needs 1400mA constant current and the LED load stays within the 8-12V constant current range. This B version accepts 180-295VAC input, which can matter where the available mains supply falls in that range. Output power is 16.8W.
Is this driver suitable for short-run LED signage or display light modules?
It can be suitable when the LED module is a constant current 1400mA load and its total forward voltage is between 8V and 12V. Because it is a constant current driver, it is not a replacement for common constant voltage signage power supplies. The IP42 case also points to indoor or protected use.
Can I use the PCD-16-1400B for a small LED array that needs strong current at low voltage?
Yes, that is the kind of load this model is built for, provided the array requires 1400mA constant current and operates within 8-12V. Its 16.8W rating keeps it in the small-array category rather than larger high-power systems. TRIAC dimming support may also help in compatible dimmed lighting setups.
How should I check compatibility with an LED module or COB?
Match the LED load to 1400mA constant current and confirm that the total forward voltage falls inside the 8-12V CC range. The number of LEDs depends on each LED's forward voltage, so the usable series length varies by LED type. If the module expects constant voltage, this driver is not compatible.
Can this driver be used in cooler or warmer indoor environments?
Yes, its rated operating range is -30°C to +60°C. That supports a wide range of indoor ambient conditions, but the IP42 enclosure still means it should be used in protected environments rather than directly exposed wet locations. Environmental fit depends on both temperature and ingress rating.
