Mean Well has launched its new generation of 80 W LED power supplies in the form of the HLN-80H and HLP-80H series.
Featuring an insulated plastic enclosure, the HLN-80H series ensures IP64 waterproof/dustproof protection. With the casing removed, the HLP-80H series features a compact PCB design. Both models are equipped with a three-in-one dimming function (1–10 V d.c., PWM, resistance) to fulfil the growing demands of energy-saving dimming applications.
The power supplies feature a 90–305 V a.c. range input and two-stage active power factor correction to comply with harmonic current limitation per EN61000-3-2 Class C (>60% load). They also maintain a power factor above 0,9 when loaded over 60% and possess 4 kV surge immunity (EN61000-4-5) to comply with the requirements of general lighting. With a high-efficiency topology, these new models possess up to 91% efficiency, allowing the HLN-80H to be cooled by free air convection from -40°C to +50°C ambient temperature, and the HLP-80H to be operated from -40°C to +70°C.
Besides built-in protection for short circuit, over-voltage, overload and over-temperature, these power units conform to global certificates per UL/CUL/TUV/CB/CE including UL8750 and EN61347-2-13 for lighting regulations. Suitable applications include indoor LED lighting, LED electric displays, LED decorative lighting and LED stage lighting.
