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 PLD-60-500B for LED downlights with a long series string?
Yes, this model fits constant current downlight assemblies that require 500mA and need a higher forward voltage, because its output range is 70-108V. That makes it more appropriate for longer series LED strings than low-voltage, high-current light engines.
Is the PLD-60-500B suitable for signage modules with higher total forward voltage?
It can be, if the signage modules are arranged as a constant current 500mA load and the full LED load falls within 70-108V. It is not a constant voltage driver, so it should not be used as a substitute for a fixed-voltage signage power supply.
Would this driver work for a small LED array built as a high-voltage series load?
Yes, when the array is designed for 500mA constant current operation and the total forward voltage sits within 70-108V. Its 54W rating supports higher-voltage constant current arrays rather than low-voltage constant current boards.
How can I tell if the PLD-60-500B matches my LED load?
The PLD-60-500B provides 500mA constant current with a 70-108V output range. The LED load must be designed for constant current use, and the number of LEDs in series depends on each LED's forward voltage instead of a fixed LED quantity.
Is the PLD-60-500B acceptable for enclosed indoor fixtures?
It is generally suited to protected indoor applications, with an operating temperature range of -30°C to +45°C (see the derating curve) and an IP42 rating. IP42 does not indicate full weatherproofing, so enclosed or sheltered locations are a better match than exposed outdoor use.
