Test conditions and notes9
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
  3. 3. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the driver may lead to increase of the set up time.
  4. 4. 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. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
  5. 5. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 75℃or less.
  6. 6. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
  7. 7. 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).
  8. 8. 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
  9. 9. Based on IEC 62386-101/102 DALI power on timing and interruption regulations, the set up time needs to test with a DALI controller which can support for DALI power on function, otherwise the set up time will be higher than 0.5 second for DA type.

FAQ

Can the PWM-120-24DA2 be used in a DALI2 smart lighting system controlling 24V LED strips?

Yes. The PWM-120-24DA2 implements the DALI2 standard, offering bidirectional communication and enhanced device-type features for integration into modern DALI2 smart lighting systems. It outputs 24V at 5A (120W) with a PWM-style output suited to 24V LED strips.

Is the PWM-120-24DA2 suitable for outdoor LED lighting applications?

Yes. The IP67 rating provides full dust ingress protection and resistance to temporary water immersion, making it suitable for outdoor enclosures and covered wet-area installations. The operating range of -40°C to +90°C covers a wide range of outdoor climates.

How many meters of 24V LED strip can the PWM-120-24DA2 power?

With a 120W output at 24V, the achievable strip length depends on the strip's power per meter. A 24W/m strip supports up to 5 meters (120 ÷ 24); a 14.4W/m strip supports approximately 8.3 meters (120 ÷ 14.4). Confirm your strip's rated power and apply a 20% derating buffer for reliable operation.

Can the PWM-120-24DA2 be used for 24V LED cove or indirect lighting in a commercial office under DALI2 control?

Yes. The DALI2 interface provides precise, addressable dimming control appropriate for commercial office lighting. The 120W, 24V PWM-style output is compatible with 24V LED strips used in cove and indirect lighting installations.

What advantage does DALI2 provide over DALI in the PWM-120-24DA2 for lighting control projects?

DALI2 introduces standardized device types, backward compatibility with DALI, and bidirectional communication that allows the controller to query device status. In the PWM-120-24DA2, this means more reliable commissioning, better interoperability with DALI2 controllers, and the ability to report operating status back to the lighting management system.

Can the PWM-120-24DA2 be installed in a sealed outdoor enclosure for landscape lighting?

Yes. The Class II design requires no functional ground connection, and the IP67 rating allows installation in sealed outdoor enclosures exposed to rain and temporary submersion. The wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +90°C ensures reliable performance in outdoor landscape conditions.
