Overview
PWM-60-36DA is the 36V output model of this series: rated current 1.67A, rated power 60.12W, typical efficiency 90%.
PWM-60 series is a 60W LED AC/DC LED driver featuring the constant voltage mode with PWM style output, which is able to maintain the brightness homogeneity when driving all kinds of LED strips. PWM-60 operates from 90~305VAC and offers models with different rated voltage ranging between 12V and 48V. Thanks to the high efficiency up to 90%, with the fanless design, the entire series is able to operate for -40℃ ~ +85℃ case temperature under free air convection. The entire series is rated with IP67 ingress protection level and is suitable to work for dry, damp or wet locations. PWM-60 is equipped with dimming function that varies the duty cycle of the output, providing great flexibility for LED strips applications.

Test conditions and notes8
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 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. 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.
- 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. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 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. 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 PWM-60-36DA integrate into a DALI building management system for 36V lighting?
Yes. The PWM-60-36DA accepts DALI control signals, allowing individual addressing and dimming over a DALI bus at 36V output. This is useful in commercial buildings with centralised lighting control where 36V LED strips or luminaires are specified.
Is the PWM-60-36DA rated for outdoor or wet-area lighting projects?
Yes. The IP67 rating protects the driver against dust ingress and temporary water immersion, making it suitable for outdoor signage, facade lighting, or covered walkway installations. The -40°C to +85°C operating range covers most outdoor deployment conditions.
How much 36V LED strip can the PWM-60-36DA support?
Maximum output is 60W at 36V and 1.67A. A strip consuming 8 W/m allows up to 7.5 meters; a 15 W/m strip is limited to 4 meters. Always verify your strip's rated power per meter and derate to 80% load (48W) for continuous duty.
Can I use the PWM-60-36DA for DALI-controlled museum exhibit lighting at 36V?
Yes. DALI addressability combined with 36V constant voltage output suits precision-controlled display or exhibit lighting where scene programming and individual zone dimming are required. The Class II isolated plastic case simplifies mounting without an earth connection.
Does the PWM-60-36DA require a DALI power supply in addition to the mains input?
No. The PWM-60-36DA accepts standard mains input (90–305VAC) and the DALI signal comes from the DALI bus controller. The driver does not require a separate DALI power supply; only the DALI two-wire bus connection is needed alongside the AC mains.
Can the PWM-60-36DA be used for DALI-dimmed outdoor landscape lighting?
Yes. IP67 waterproofing and a wide operating temperature of -40°C to +85°C make this driver suitable for outdoor landscape applications with DALI-based scene control. Use it with a 36V outdoor-rated LED strip or fixture for a weatherproof, intelligently controlled installation.
