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 I use the PCD-40-1050B for a dimmable LED downlight that needs 1050mA constant current?
Yes, this model is a constant current LED driver rated for 1050mA with a 22-38V constant current output range. It is suited to LED downlights that are designed for constant current operation within that voltage window, not constant voltage fixtures. It is also TRIAC dimmable, which is relevant when the downlight uses TRIAC dimming.
Is the PCD-40-1050B suitable for powering signage LED modules?
It can be suitable for signage LED modules only when the module set is designed for constant current operation at 1050mA and falls within the 22-38V output range. This is not a constant voltage driver, so it should not be matched to signage products that expect a fixed constant voltage supply. Its 39.9W rating is intended for constant current LED loads within its specified range.
Can this driver run a small high-power LED array?
Yes, if the LED array is a constant current load rated at 1050mA and the total forward voltage stays within 22-38V. The available output power is 39.9W, so the array also needs to fit within that power level. It is intended for constant current arrays rather than constant voltage LED assemblies.
How do I know if the PCD-40-1050B is compatible with my LEDs?
Check that your LED load requires 1050mA constant current and that its total forward voltage falls within the 22-38V constant current range. The number of LEDs depends on each LED's forward voltage, so compatibility should be based on total forward voltage rather than a fixed LED count. If your product expects constant voltage output, this driver is not the right type.
Can the PCD-40-1050B be used in damp or dusty locations?
This driver has an IP42-rated casing, so it is better suited to indoor locations where limited ingress protection is acceptable. It is not in the same protection class as sealed higher-IP drivers intended for harsher exposure. Its operating temperature range is -30°C to +50°C, at 20-95% RH non-condensing.
How does the PCD-40-1050B compare with the other PCD constant current models?
Within the PCD-40 series, the 1050mA PCD-40-1050B covers 22-38V at 39.9W. The other 40W siblings are PCD-40-1400B at 17-29V and 40.6W, PCD-40-1750B at 13-23V and 40.25W, PCD-40-700B at 34-57V and 39.9W, PCD-40-500B at 45-80V and 40W, and PCD-40-350B at 70-108V and 37.8W. This model sits in the middle of the series, between the 700mA and 1400mA versions.
