Test conditions and notes15
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
- 3. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
- 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.
- 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. No load/standby power consumption is specified for 230VAC input.
- 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. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
- 9. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 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. BIS IS15885(for 12/12A/12B/12DA/24/24A/24B/24DA/36/36A/36B/42A/42B/48/48A/48B/54A/54B).
- 14. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED power supply can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.
- 15. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
Can I use the ELG-200-48AB to power a large 48V LED strip installation?
Yes. The ELG-200-48AB delivers up to 199.68W at 48V, making it suitable for powering 48V LED strip runs. At 199.68W total, you can support strips drawing up to that wattage — check your strip's rated power per meter to calculate the maximum run length (e.g., a 14W/m strip allows roughly 14 meters from a single driver). The built-in potentiometer lets you fine-tune the output voltage between 44.8V and 51.2V if your strip requires a slightly different setpoint.
Is the ELG-200-48AB suitable for outdoor architectural lighting or building facade signage?
The ELG-200-48AB carries an IP65 water-resistance rating, meaning it is protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction. It is suitable for covered outdoor locations such as under-eave signage cabinets, outdoor lighting enclosures, or facade lighting channels where the driver is not submerged or directly rain-exposed. For fully exposed or submerged applications, the IP67-rated ELG-200-48B would be a better fit.
Can I dim the ELG-200-48AB with a standard 0-10V dimming controller?
Yes. The AB type combines output voltage (44.8–51.2V) and current (2.08–4.16A) adjustment via a built-in potentiometer with three-in-one dimming: 0–10VDC, 10V PWM signal, or resistance. You can connect a 0–10V controller directly between DIM+ and DIM- to adjust light output; do not connect DIM- to Vo-.
Can the ELG-200-48AB be used in a retail display cabinet with continuous operation?
Yes. The driver is rated for a case temperature range of -40°C to +90°C, and the series has a typical life expectancy above 50,000 hours when the case is kept at about 70°C or less. Its metal case aids heat dissipation, making it appropriate for enclosed retail display cabinets with 48V LED lighting, provided the cabinet keeps the case within that range.
What certifications does the ELG-200-48AB hold, and can it be used in North American installations?
The sheet lists UL8750 (Type HL) and CSA C22.2 No. 250.13-12 for North America, plus IEC/EN/AS/NZS 61347-1 and 61347-2-13, EN62384, EAC, GB/T19510 and KC approvals. For A/AB types the sheet notes the driver must be considered for built-in use to comply with the Type HL application.
How does the ELG-200-48AB differ from the ELG-200-48B?
Both are 199.68W, 48V, 4.16A drivers in the same enclosure. The key differences are: the ELG-200-48AB is IP65 water-resistant and includes output voltage adjustment plus three-in-one dimming; the ELG-200-48B is IP67 waterproof and supports three-in-one dimming without a voltage trimmer. Choose the AB if you need to fine-tune the output voltage; choose the B if the installation demands the higher IP67 ingress protection.
Is the ELG-200-48AB appropriate for powering LED strip lighting in a food-service or commercial kitchen environment?
The IP65 rating protects against dust and low-pressure water jets, so the ELG-200-48AB can be installed in a commercial kitchen if mounted in a dry, ventilated area away from direct spray and cooking heat. Where the driver may be exposed to standing water or temporary immersion, the IP67-rated ELG-200-48B offers a higher margin of protection.
