Test conditions and notes15
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
- 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
- 4. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
- 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. For OTP which triggered at light load/no load condition, proceed AC repower on to recovery.
- 10. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >62,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 75℃ or less.
- 11. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 12. 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).
- 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. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.
- 15. Products sourced from the Americas regions may only have the UL, CE and UKCA logos. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.

FAQ
Can I use the HLG-120H-24A for 24V LED strip installations in a covered patio or soffit?
Yes. The HLG-120H-24A delivers 24V at up to 5A (120W) and carries an IP65 water-resistant rating, which handles splashing water and dust in covered outdoor areas like patios, canopies, or soffits. For fully exposed locations with direct rain, consider the IP67-rated HLG-120H-24 instead.
Is the adjustable output on the HLG-120H-24A useful for fine-tuning LED brightness?
Yes. The built-in potentiometers let you trim the output voltage within 22-27V and the output current within 2.5-5A, which helps when you need to reduce brightness slightly or match the driver to a specific LED load without an external dimmer.
Can the HLG-120H-24A power 24V LED modules in a commercial light box?
Yes. With 120W at 24V, it can drive a sizeable array of 24V LED modules for light boxes, menu boards, or display signage. The adjustable output lets you dial in the exact voltage to match your module string, and the wide 90-305VAC input handles most commercial mains supplies worldwide.
How many meters of 24V LED strip can the HLG-120H-24A handle?
Divide 120W by your strip's power consumption per meter. For instance, a strip rated at 10W/m would allow up to 12 meters (120W / 10W per meter = 12m). Always check your strip's rated power per meter and keep total load at or below 120W for reliable operation.
Is the HLG-120H-24A suitable for a damp basement or parking garage installation?
Yes. IP65 protects against low-pressure water jets from any direction and full dust ingress, which is more than sufficient for damp indoor environments like basements, garages, or parking structures. For locations with direct rain or potential standing water, the IP67-rated HLG-120H-24 or HLG-120H-24B would be more appropriate.
