- 4. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 5. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.If continually operate with AC on/off in short time , it may causes PWM driver IC into protection status.
- 6. 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
- 7. Only for XLG-240 I series,and Iseries without UL/CSA certificate.
- 8. 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.

- 12. 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).
- 13. H type:RCM is on a voluntary basis. Non IC classification Independent LED control gear is not suitable for residential installations. M,L type:RCM is on a voluntary basis and meets relevant IEC or AS/NZS standards complying with AS/NZS 4417.1.
- 14. Products sourced from the Americas regions may not have the CCC/PSE/BIS/KC logo. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
- 15. Some products may not have the BIS logo, please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
- 16. 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
- 17. When the current adjustment is more than 110% of the rated current, it will be enter the Protection state.
- 18. It may has an over-shoot status at output current when AC On/Off operate with lower Vf and lower loading conditions.
- 19. If you need the NOM (Mexico) certificate, Please contact MEAN WELL sales representative for details.

FAQ
What type of LED lighting is the XLG-240-L-A designed for?
The XLG-240-L-A is a constant-current driver suited for high-voltage LED strings, such as long series-connected LED module chains used in large-format signage, tunnel lighting, or street light retrofits. Its CC voltage range of 178–342V accommodates strings that require much higher forward voltage than typical low-voltage strips.
Can the XLG-240-L-A be used in outdoor installations exposed to rain?
Yes. The IP67 waterproof rating confirms the driver is protected against dust and temporary water immersion. It is suitable for outdoor street lighting poles, tunnel fixtures, or any exterior enclosure where moisture ingress is a concern.
Is this driver compatible with LED tunnel or street lighting modules that operate above 200V?
Yes. The XLG-240-L-A supports a CC voltage range of 178–342V, which is specifically designed for high-voltage LED module strings used in tunnel lights, area lights, and other infrastructure luminaires. The output current is 0.7A at up to 239.4W.
Can I run the XLG-240-L-A from a 277V commercial supply in North America?
Yes. The driver accepts 100–305VAC input, which covers 277V single-phase circuits common in US commercial buildings. No step-down transformer is required.
How does the XLG-240-L-A differ from the XLG-240-H-A?
Both are 239W-class constant-current drivers in the same enclosure with IP67 protection. The XLG-240-L-A operates at a higher CC voltage range (178–342V) and lower output current (0.7A), targeting high-voltage LED strings. The XLG-240-H-A operates at a lower CC voltage range (27–56V) with higher output current (4.9A), targeting lower-voltage LED modules and strips.
What operating temperature range does the XLG-240-L-A support?
The driver operates from -40°C to +90°C, making it suitable for installations in very cold climates such as northern outdoor infrastructure, as well as hot environments like desert street lighting projects.
