Test conditions and notes11
- 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. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 4. 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.
- 5. 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)
- 6. 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.
- 7. For OTP which triggered at light load/no load condition, proceed AC repower on to recovery.
- 8. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >62,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 80℃ 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).

FAQ
Can I use the HLG-120H-C1050AB with a 1-10V dimmer for LED downlight brightness control?
Yes. The HLG-120H-C1050AB accepts a 1-10V or PWM dimming signal (or a resistance), making it straightforward to integrate with standard commercial dimming systems. It delivers 1050mA constant current across a 74-148V range, so you can dim high-power LED downlights smoothly.
Is the HLG-120H-C1050AB suitable for dimmable LED high-bay fixtures in a retail space?
Yes. At 155.4W and 1050mA constant current, the HLG-120H-C1050AB can power high-output LED fixtures used in retail environments. The built-in dimming input allows you to adjust light levels for different display areas or time-of-day schedules, and the adjustable output lets you fine-tune the drive current to the fixture's LED module.
Can the HLG-120H-C1050AB drive a series string of LED modules for channel-letter signs with dimming?
Yes, as long as the total forward voltage of the LED string falls within 74-148V. The driver provides regulated 1050mA constant current, and the dimming input lets you reduce brightness for nighttime operation or energy savings. The wide 90-305VAC input handles most commercial electrical supplies.
What dimming methods does the HLG-120H-C1050AB support?
The HLG-120H-C1050AB supports 1-10VDC, 10V PWM and resistance dimming (3-in-1) through its built-in dimming input. It also has an adjustable potentiometer for setting the baseline output current (525-1050mA). This combination allows both manual trimming and automated dimming control from a building management system or standalone dimmer.
How many LEDs can I run in series with the HLG-120H-C1050AB?
That depends on each LED's forward voltage. The HLG-120H-C1050AB operates in constant current mode at 1050mA with a CC voltage range of 74-148V. Your series string's total forward voltage must land within that range. For example, LEDs with a 3V forward voltage could be strung roughly 25-49 units in series, but always verify against the actual LED datasheet values.
Can the HLG-120H-C1050AB handle temperature extremes in an unheated outdoor sign cabinet?
Yes. It works at a case temperature (Tcase) of -40°C to +90°C, with load derating at higher temperatures per the output load vs temperature curve, which covers winter cold and heat buildup inside enclosed sign cabinets within those limits. The series' IP65/IP67 rating also protects against dust and water jets, though the cabinet itself provides additional environmental shielding.
