Mean Well has introduced the LPF-16/16D and LPF-25/25D series power supplies to fulfil the requirements for low-wattage LED lighting and decorative lighting applications.

Featuring 90–305 V a.c. input range in 16 W and 25 W models, the units comply with global certificates per UL8750, EN61347-1, EN61347-2-13 and EN55015. They have up to 87% efficiency and can work between -40°C and +70°C by utilising free air convection alone.

Without dimming function, the LPF-16/25 series are primary models with basic functions; the LPF-16D/25D series equip an additional three-in-one dimming function which offers system designers flexibility for designing lighting fixtures by using 1 – 10 V d.c., PWM signal or variable resistance to achieve brightness reduction and energy saving.

The power supplies are enclosed in a plastic case with 94V-0 fire prevention level. LPF-16 (D) series provide two types: standard type without IP level and optional type with IP67 level. LPF-25 (D) series are fully potted by heat-conducted glue (IP67 structure) and allow internal shock absorption to withstand 5 G vibration and provide protection for internal electronic components against dust and moisture. Other standard functions include Class II AC input design (two wires, without FG) and protection for short circuit, over-voltage, overload and over-temperature.
