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. 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.
- 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. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
What dimming methods does the ELG-75-48B support?
The 'B' suffix on the ELG-75-48B denotes 3-in-1 dimming: the output current can be adjusted by applying 0–10VDC, a 10V PWM signal (100Hz–3KHz), or a resistance between DIM+ and DIM-. Minimum dimming level is about 8%, and the dimming source current from the driver is 100μA (typ.).
Can the ELG-75-48B power dimmable 48V LED strips in an outdoor landscape lighting circuit?
Yes. The ELG-75 series carries an IP65 or IP67 rating, making the ELG-75-48B suitable for outdoor landscape installations exposed to rain. Its 76.8W, 48V, 1.6A output (60W on 100–180VAC) drives a 48V strip load within that envelope, and the dimming input allows brightness adjustment for nighttime scenes.
Is the ELG-75-48B suitable for wet environments such as pool deck or fountain lighting?
The ELG-75 series is rated IP65 or IP67, which suits wet outdoor areas such as pool deck surrounds exposed to rain or splashing. The datasheet does not give a submersion rating, so do not install the driver where it can be immersed or sit in standing water, and follow MEAN WELL's IP installation cautions in the user manual.
How much 48V LED strip can the ELG-75-48B supply?
The ELG-75-48B outputs up to 76.8W at 48V and 1.6A on 200–305VAC input (60W on 100–180VAC). For a 48V strip consuming 14.4W/m, the driver can supply approximately 5.3 meters (76.8W ÷ 14.4W/m ≈ 5.3m). Always verify your strip's rated power per meter and leave a small buffer below the rated maximum to ensure stable operation.
Can the ELG-75-48B be used in a 48V dimmable LED stair lighting system installed outdoors?
Yes, the ELG-75-48B is a strong match for outdoor stair lighting. The series' IP65/IP67 rating handles rain and moisture exposure on exposed exterior stairs, and the 0–10V/PWM/resistance dimming input allows integration with sensors or controllers that output these signals.
Is the ELG-75-48B appropriate for powering 48V LEDs inside a refrigerated display cabinet that needs dimming?
Yes. The case-temperature rating of -40°C to +85°C and IP65/IP67 series sealing make the ELG-75-48B suitable for refrigerated display environments (keep it free of condensation; humidity rating is non-condensing), and the 3-in-1 dimming allows brightness adjustment for product presentation requirements.
