Test conditions and notes6
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. Current ripple is measured 60%~100% of maximum voltage under rated power delivery.
  3. 3. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristic for more details.
  4. 4. The power supply 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)
  5. 5. Suitable for indoor use or outdoor use without direct sunlight exposure.
  6. 6. This product is not intended for LED applications in the EU and China.(In the EU NPF/LPF/XLG series are recommended.)

FAQ

Can the LPHC-18-700 run a 700mA LED downlight?

Yes, this driver is intended for constant current LED loads that require 700mA. It is suitable when the LED downlight's total forward voltage falls within the 6-25V constant current range.

Is this a good choice for signage modules or compact LED arrays that need higher current?

It can be used for signage modules or compact LED arrays that are specified for constant current operation at 700mA. The load must stay within the 6-25V constant current range, and the exact number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED.

Can I use the LPHC-18-700 with LEDs that are designed for constant voltage power?

No, this is a constant current LED driver rather than a constant voltage power supply. It should be matched only with LED loads that are rated for 700mA constant current and operate within the 6-25V constant current range.

What should I check to confirm LED compatibility with the LPHC-18-700?

First, confirm the LEDs are designed for constant current operation at 700mA. Then verify that the total forward voltage of the LED load is within 6-25V, keeping in mind that the number of LEDs depends on each LED forward voltage.

Is the LPHC-18-700 appropriate for outdoor or exposed environments?

It is fully encapsulated to IP67, so it suits locations where dust and water resistance are needed; the sheet allows indoor use or outdoor use without direct sunlight exposure. Its operating temperature range is -30°C to +70°C, with load derating at higher ambient temperatures per the derating curve.

How does the LPHC-18-700 compare with the LPHC-18-350?

The LPHC-18-700 provides 700mA output, a 6-25V constant current range, and 17.5W power, while the LPHC-18-350 provides 350mA output, a 6-48V constant current range, and 16.8W power. Both models use 180-264VAC input, are rated IP67, and have the same 140.0 × 30.0 × 22.0 mm size and 0.175 kg weight.
