Overview
XLG-150-12-AB is the 12V output model of this series: rated power 150W, typical efficiency 91.5%.
XLG-150 series is a 150W LED AC/DC driver featuring the constant power mode.XLG-150 operates from 100~305VAC and offers models with different rated current ranging between 700mA and 12500mA. Thanks to the high efficiency up to 93%, with the fanless design, the entire series is able to operate for -40℃~+90℃ case temperature under free air convection. The design of metal housing and IP67 ingress protection level allows this series to fit both indoor and outdoor applications. Moreover the innovative environment-adaptive capability allows this series to reliably light on the LEDs for all kinds of application environments in almost any spots that may install LED luminaires in the world. XLG-150 series comply with the latest version of IEC61347/GB/T19510.1 and UL8750 international safety regulations. The output and dimming circuit are also completely in accordance with the new regulations with isolation to ensure the safety of both user and luminaire system during installation.

Test conditions and notes16
- 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". (Except for CV-type)
- 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. Only CE/ENEC/CB is available for CV-type. XLG-150I series without UL/CSA certificate.
- 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. 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).
- 10. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 11. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 75℃ or less.
- 12. Products sourced from the Americas regions may not have the CCC/PSE/BIS/KC logo. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
- 13. 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
- 14. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixture, this LED driver can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.
- 15. If you need the NOM (Mexico) certificate, Please contact MEAN WELL sales representative for details.
- 16. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
Can the XLG-150-12-AB power 12V LED strip lighting for retail displays or shelving?
Yes, this model provides 12V output with up to 150W and 12.5A available for compatible LED lighting loads. It is appropriate for 12V strip-based display lighting when the total demand remains within 150W.
Is this driver suitable for 12V channel letters or sign cabinets?
Yes, it can support 12V signage loads that stay within the driver's 150W maximum output. Its IP67 Waterproof rating is also useful for signs exposed to weather.
Can I use the XLG-150-12-AB for 12V LED lighting in outdoor commercial spaces?
For compatible 12V LED loads up to 150W, this driver is suited to outdoor lighting applications because it carries an IP67 Waterproof rating. The -40°C to +90°C operating temperature range supports use in hot and cold conditions.
What LED strip length can I estimate from this 12V 150W driver?
This unit can supply up to 150W at 12V. Estimated strip length equals 150W divided by your strip's watts per meter, so check your strip rated power per meter before sizing the run.
Can this driver be used where rain, dust, or washdown exposure is possible?
Yes, the IP67 Waterproof enclosure is intended for wet and dusty environments rather than dry indoor-only spaces. The metal case and operating range of -40°C to +90°C also support harsher site conditions.
What is the difference between XLG-150-12-AB and nearby XLG 150W siblings?
XLG-150-12-AB and XLG-150-12-A share the same 150W, 12V, 12.5A electrical rating. In the same 150W family, XLG-150-24-A and XLG-150-24-AB are 24V, 6.25A models, and XLG-150-L-A is a constant current model with a 120~214V output range.
