Test conditions and notes14
- 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". For DA-Type, Constant Current region is 60%~100% of maximum voltage under rated power delivery.
- 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 CHARACTERISTICS” 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. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 80℃ or less.
- 9. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com.
- 10. 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).
- 11. 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
- 12. 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.
- 13. ELG-150-12(except blank/A-Type) is used for any light source that exempt from the ErP-Directive (EU) 2019/2020 requirement, for example this model could be use for signalling products(including, but not limited to road-, railway-, marineorair traffic-signalling , traffic control or airfield lamps) .
- 14. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
Can I integrate the ELG-150-12DA into a DALI-based smart lighting system?
Yes. The 'DA' suffix indicates DALI protocol dimming, allowing the driver to be individually addressed and controlled by a DALI lighting management system. This is suitable for office, hospitality, or retail installations using centralized scene control.
Is the ELG-150-12DA suitable for powering outdoor architectural LED strip lighting?
Yes. The IP67 waterproof rating protects the driver against rain and temporary water exposure, and the -40°C to +90°C case temperature (Tcase) range covers outdoor use in most climates. At 12V it is compatible with standard outdoor-rated 12V LED strip products.
How much 12V LED strip can the ELG-150-12DA drive?
The ELG-150-12DA supplies 120W at 12V. For a 12 W/m strip: 120 ÷ 12 = 10 m maximum; at 80% derating for continuous duty that is 8 m. Check your specific strip's rated power per meter for an accurate calculation.
Can the ELG-150-12DA be used for theatre stage wash lighting that needs smooth dimming?
Yes. DALI dimming provides digitally controlled dimming down to a minimum of about 8% output, which suits theatre stage applications that use scene programming. The driver outputs 120W at 12V, compatible with LED strip or module fixtures used in wash lighting.
Is the ELG-150-12DA rated for installation in a wet outdoor location?
The IP67 rating certifies the enclosure against dust ingress and temporary immersion in up to 1 m of water, which suits wet outdoor locations. Always confirm with your local authority having jurisdiction that the driver installation method meets site-specific requirements.
