Test conditions and notes13
- 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 cold first start. Turning ON/OFF the driver may lead to increase of the set up time.
- 7. The DA type power supply is less efficient than the A type power supply by 1%.
- 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. For A/AB type need to consider build-in using or filling the Io adjusting hole with the potting compound to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
Can I use the HBG-240-48B for a 48V LED high bay light?
Yes, this series is shown for high bay light installation and this driver provides 240W at 48V with a 28.8-48V constant current region. It is a fit when the fixture is designed for constant-current operation within that voltage range and up to 5A output.
Is this driver suitable for 48V outdoor signage lighting?
It can be used for 48V constant-current signage lighting if the load stays within the 28.8-48V constant current region and the 240W maximum output. The series' IP65 or IP67 approval supports outdoor and wet-location use when the rest of the sign system is rated for the same conditions.
Can the HBG-240-48B run 48V architectural or area lighting outdoors?
Yes, for 48V constant-current lighting loads up to 240W, this model is suitable for outdoor architectural or area-lighting applications. The series' IP65 or IP67 approval and -40°C to +75°C working case temperature (Tcase) range support exposed environments with wide temperature swings.
Can I use this with a 48V LED strip or linear light?
Yes, if the strip or linear light matches the 48V output or the 28.8-48V constant current region. For length estimates, use the 240W maximum: for example, 240W divided by 10W per meter equals 24 meters, or 240W divided by 20W per meter equals 12 meters; check your strip rated power per meter.
Is the HBG-240-48B okay for wet or washdown locations?
The HBG-240 series is IP65 or IP67 approved, so it is intended for wet and outdoor environments. The -40°C to +75°C working case temperature (Tcase) range also makes it better suited to demanding conditions than an indoor-only driver.
How does the HBG-240-48B compare with other 240W HBG voltage options?
Within the 240W HBG family, the 24V versions use a 14.4-24V or 16.8-24V constant current region, the 36V versions use 21.6-36V or 25.2-36V, the 48V versions use 28.8-48V or 33.6-48V, and the 60V versions use 36-60V or 42-60V. The HBG-240-48B is the 48V, 240W option with a 28.8-48V constant current region and 5A output.
