Test conditions and notes14
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
- 5. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 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. 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. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
- 8. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED driver can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.
- 9. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >62,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 70℃ or less.
- 10. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com.
- 11. 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).
- 12. 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
- 13. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
Can I use the HLG-60H-42B to power dimmable 42V LED fixtures outdoors?
Yes. The HLG-60H-42B outputs 42V at up to 1.45A (60.9W) with a 1-10V/PWM dimming input, and carries an IP67 waterproof rating. It can be mounted in locations fully exposed to rain, snow, or temporary water contact, making it ideal for outdoor architectural or landscape LED fixtures.
Is the HLG-60H-42B suitable for powering a 42V LED channel-letter sign?
Yes, as long as the sign's total power draw stays within 60.9W at 42V. The constant-current mode covers a 25.2-42V range, so it can accommodate modules that operate at slightly lower voltages. The IP67 waterproof enclosure is well suited for exterior-mounted signage.
Can the HLG-60H-42B power 42V LED linear lights in a parking garage?
Yes. With 60.9W output at 42V and IP67 waterproofing, the HLG-60H-42B handles the damp, dusty conditions found in parking garages. The dimming input lets you reduce light levels during low-traffic hours to save energy, and the -40°C to +80°C case temperature (Tcase) range covers seasonal temperature swings.
How many meters of 42V LED strip can the HLG-60H-42B handle?
It depends on your strip's power consumption per meter. The HLG-60H-42B is rated 60.9W at 42V. For a strip rated at 12W/m, you could run about 5 meters (60.9W / 12W per meter). For a 6W/m strip, about 10 meters. Always check your strip's rated power per meter and stay within 60.9W total.
Can the HLG-60H-42B withstand being submerged in standing water?
No. Although it is IP67-rated, the datasheet does not rate it for submersion or standing water, so mount it above ground level where puddles or flooding may occur. Fit waterproof connectors to the cables and follow the IP installation cautions in MEAN WELL's user manual. Its -40°C to +80°C case temperature (Tcase) range supports harsh outdoor conditions.
