Over 15 years experience of providing support of MEAN WELL Power Supplies
Overview
PWM-200-36KN is the 36V output model of this series: rated current 5.55A, rated power 199.8W, typical efficiency 94%.
PWM-200KN series is a 200W AC/DC LED driver featuring the constant voltage mode with PWM style output, which is able to maintain the colour temperature and the brightness homogeneity when driving all kinds of LED strips and constant voltage LED bulbs. The built-in KNX interface is to avoid using the complicated KNX-DALI gateway and equipped with KNX Data Secure. KNX Data Secure offers protection against manipulation in building automation and can be configured in the ETS project. PWM-200KN operates from 100~305VAC and offers models with output voltage between 12V & 48V. Thanks to the high efficiency up to 94%, with the fanless design, the entire series is able to operate for -40℃ ~ +85℃ case temperature under free air convection. The minimal dimming level low to 0.01% is suitable for low light level applications e.g. cinema. The output frequency is changeable up to 4KHz compliant IEEE1789-2015 no risk requirement and EU Ecodesign stroboscopic visibility measure(SVM) requirement providing a great solution for health concern due to light flickering.

Test conditions and notes10
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. 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.
- 3. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 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.

FAQ
Can the PWM-200-36KN control 36V LED strips directly through a KNX smart home or building system?
Yes. The PWM-200-36KN has an integrated KNX interface and does not require a separate KNX-DALI gateway, simplifying the system architecture. It provides 200W at 36V (5.55A) with constant voltage PWM output, making it suitable for 36V LED strip installations in KNX-controlled residential or commercial projects.
Is the PWM-200-36KN suitable for outdoor LED lighting in a KNX-managed landscape system?
No. The PWM-200-36KN has a plastic housing with Class II design and is not rated for outdoor use (no IP rating specified for outdoor exposure). It is designed for indoor LED lighting, decorative lighting, and architectural applications. The -40°C to +85°C case temperature range applies to internal component limits, not outdoor environmental exposure.
How much 36V LED strip can a single PWM-200-36KN power?
The unit delivers 200W at 36V. Divide 200 by your strip's watt-per-meter rating to estimate maximum length—a 12 W/m strip allows approximately 16.6 m (200 ÷ 12 ≈ 16.6). As with any LED driver, it is best practice to size the load at no more than 80% of the rated wattage for continuous applications.
Can the PWM-200-36KN be used for LED strip lighting in a hotel corridor with KNX occupancy control?
Yes. The built-in KNX interface allows the driver to respond directly to occupancy or presence sensors on the KNX bus for automatic dimming or switch-off in corridors. The 200W, 36V output is well sized for runs of 36V LED strip used in recessed ceiling or cove lighting.
What is the standby power consumption of the PWM-200-36KN?
Standby power consumption is below 0.5W, which supports energy-efficiency requirements in green building projects where low no-load losses are specified. This is particularly relevant in occupancy-controlled or time-scheduled lighting systems that frequently switch the driver to standby.
Can this driver power 36V LED tape for retail display lighting with scheduled brightness control?
Yes. The 200W output supports substantial runs of 36V LED tape in display shelving or cabinet lighting. The KNX interface enables time-based scheduling and scene switching directly from a building management or retail automation system without additional protocol adapters.
