Overview

PWM-90-12DA is the 12V output model of this series: rated current 7.5A, rated power 90W, typical efficiency 88%.

PWM-90 series is a 90W 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-90 operates from 90~305VAC and offers models with different rated voltage ranging between 12V and 48V. Thanks to the high efficiency up to 90.5%, 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-90 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 I use the PWM-90-12DA to power outdoor LED strip lighting?

Yes. The PWM-90-12DA carries an IP67 waterproof rating, meaning it is fully protected against dust and temporary immersion in water. This makes it suitable for outdoor LED strip installations such as architectural facade lighting or covered exterior signage, provided the unit is not continuously submerged.

Is the PWM-90-12DA compatible with a DALI lighting control system?

Yes. This driver includes a native DALI interface, allowing it to receive dimming commands from any DALI-compliant building automation or lighting control system. No separate DALI interface module is required.

Can I use this driver to power 12V LED strips for cabinet or display case lighting?

Yes. The PWM-90-12DA outputs 12V at up to 7.5A (90W total), which is well suited for 12V LED strip lighting in display cases, under-cabinet installations, or retail shelving. Ensure the combined rated wattage of all strips does not exceed 90W.

How much 12V LED strip can the PWM-90-12DA power?

With a maximum output of 90W at 12V, this driver can power up to 90W of LED strip load. For example, a strip rated at 9W per meter would support 10 meters (90W ÷ 9W/m = 10m). Always check your strip's rated power per meter and apply an 80% derating for continuous operation, which gives a practical limit of about 72W.

Can the PWM-90-12DA handle a wide range of input voltages found in international applications?

Yes. This unit accepts 90–305VAC input, covering both 100V and 230V mains systems. This makes it usable across North America, Europe, and most other global markets without modification.

Is the PWM-90-12DA suitable for use in cold environments such as outdoor winter installations?

Yes. The operating temperature range is -40°C to +85°C, so the driver will function reliably in freezing outdoor conditions. The fully enclosed IP67 plastic case also provides protection against moisture and condensation.

How does the PWM-90-12DA compare to other models in the PWM series?

The PWM series spans 40W to 200W and voltages of 12V, 24V, 36V, and 48V. The PWM-90-12DA is 90W at 12V with DALI dimming. Related 90W models include the PWM-90-12 (3-in-1 dimming), PWM-90-12DA2 (DALI2), PWM-90-24DA (24V DALI), PWM-90-36DA (36V DALI), and PWM-90-48DA (48V DALI). Higher-power alternatives at 12V include the PWM-120-12DA (120W) and PWM-200-12 (200W).
