Test conditions and notes12
- 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. 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 >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

FAQ
Can I use the LPF-16-36 for a 36V LED sign or illuminated panel?
Yes, if the LED load stays within 36V, 0.45A, and 16.2W. The driver works in constant voltage mode at 36V or in constant current mode over a 19.8-36V region, so the sign or panel has to match that operating window.
Is this driver a fit for a small 36V commercial lighting fixture?
It can be used with a 36V fixture that requires output up to 0.45A and does not exceed 16.2W. Note the sheet lists the standard unit as IP30, with IP67 only as an option, so it is not intended for exposed or damp areas as standard.
Can the LPF-16-36 run a short 36V LED strip for accent or display lighting?
Yes, if the strip is rated for 36V and draws no more than 0.45A. The driver offers 36V in constant voltage mode or 0.45A constant current within 19.8-36V, so the strip's electrical requirements need to match one of these modes.
How much 36V LED strip can this driver support?
The available power is 16.2W, so estimated strip length is 16.2W divided by your strip's rated power per meter. Check your strip rated power per meter and confirm the strip is specified for a 36V output limited to 0.45A before sizing the run.
Can this 36V driver be used outdoors?
Not as standard. The sheet shows the standard LPF-16-36 as IP30, with IP67 listed only as an option, so it is not rated for outdoor or wet-location use. Its working case temperature (Tcase) range is -35°C to +70°C.
