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 75℃ 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-80H-12AB for a dimmable 12V LED under-counter lighting project?
Yes. The HLG-80H-12AB delivers 60W at 12V and includes both a 3-in-1 dimming input (1-10VDC, 10V PWM or resistance) and a built-in potentiometer for output current adjustment. You can connect it to a wall-mounted 1-10V dimmer for smooth brightness control over kitchen or bar under-counter LED strips.
Is the HLG-80H-12AB a good fit for dimmable 12V LED strip in a commercial display?
Yes. At 60W and 12V, it can power 12V LED strip or module arrays in display cases, shelving, or merchandise showcases. The dimming input lets you adjust brightness for different display modes, and the current potentiometer (3-5A) lets you set the output current to suit the LED load.
Can I use the HLG-80H-12AB with a building automation system for scheduled dimming?
Yes. The 3-in-1 dimming input accepts a 1-10VDC signal, a 10V PWM signal (100Hz-3KHz) or a resistance, so it can be controlled by building management and automation systems that output one of these signals. This allows scheduled dimming profiles for energy savings during off-hours or daylight harvesting scenarios.
How many meters of 12V LED strip can the HLG-80H-12AB drive?
Divide 60W by your strip's rated wattage per meter. For example, at 12W/m you can run 5 meters (60W / 12W per meter = 5m). At 7.2W/m, you could run about 8.3 meters. Always check your specific strip's rated power per meter and keep total load at or below 60W.
Can the HLG-80H-12AB be used in a covered outdoor awning installation?
Yes. Its IP65-rated metal housing is designed for both indoor and outdoor applications, making it suitable for covered awnings, soffits, and similar sheltered outdoor locations. For installations exposed to direct rain, an IP67-rated model such as the HLG-80H-12B would be a better fit.
