Test conditions and notes15
- 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. No load/standby power consumption is specified for 230VAC input.
- 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. BIS IS15885(for 12/12A/12B/12DA/24/24A/24B/24DA/36/36A/36B/42A/42B/48/48A/48B/54A/54B).
- 14. 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.
- 15. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
Can I use the ELG-200-42AB to power outdoor LED signage?
Yes. The ELG-200-42AB carries an IP65 water-resistance rating, which protects against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for covered outdoor sign cabinets and facades where direct rain exposure is limited. Its case temperature range of -40°C to +90°C also handles most outdoor climates.
Is the ELG-200-42AB suitable for architectural LED lighting in commercial buildings?
Yes. At 199.9W and 42V constant voltage + constant current output with a CC voltage range of 21-42V, the ELG-200-42AB suits mid-to-large architectural LED arrays such as cove lighting, façade strips, and decorative channel letters. The adjustable output lets integrators fine-tune brightness at commissioning.
Can I use the ELG-200-42AB to drive 42V LED strips in a retail display?
Yes. The driver delivers up to 199.9W at 42V with 4.76A output current, making it a good match for 42V LED strip runs in display cases or feature lighting. Verify your strip's rated wattage per meter; for example, a 10W/m strip could span up to roughly 20 meters (199.9W ÷ 10W/m), though always apply a 20% derating margin for safety.
Does the ELG-200-42AB support dimming and output adjustment for lighting control systems?
Yes. The 'AB' suffix indicates both a 3-in-1 dimming input (0–10VDC, 10V PWM or resistance) and a built-in potentiometer for output voltage (39–45V) and current (2.38–4.76A) adjustment. This makes it compatible with common 0–10V lighting controllers used in commercial and hospitality dimming systems.
How does the ELG-200-42AB compare to other ELG-200-42 variants?
All ELG-200-42 variants share the same 199.9W / 42V / 4.76A core and identical 244×71×37.5 mm dimensions. The suffix differentiates control: the base model has no dimming, -A adds a potentiometer only, -AB adds potentiometer plus 3-in-1 dimming, -B adds 3-in-1 dimming (0–10V / PWM / resistance) without a potentiometer, and -DA adds DALI dimming. IP rating also differs: AB and A are IP65; base, B and DA are IP67.
Is the ELG-200-42AB appropriate for an LED installation in a damp utility room or parking structure?
The IP65 rating protects against dust and water jets but is not rated for temporary submersion. For damp utility rooms or covered parking structures with occasional splashing it is adequate; for direct rain exposure, consider an IP67-rated variant such as the ELG-200-42B.
