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 80℃ 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 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-150H-36AB with a building automation system to dim 36V LED lighting?
Yes, if the system provides a suitable output. The HLG-150H-36AB accepts 1-10VDC, 10V PWM or resistance dimming signals, so lighting control systems with one of these outputs can drive it. You can schedule brightness levels, integrate with occupancy sensors, and still fine-tune the maximum output using the built-in potentiometer.
Is the HLG-150H-36AB suitable for 36V LED display case or retail lighting with dimming?
Yes. With 151.2W at 36V, adjustable output, and dimming input, it is well suited for retail display cases, museum lighting, or showroom installations where you need precise brightness control. In constant-current mode it drives LED loads whose voltage falls anywhere within its 18-36V CC region.
Can the HLG-150H-36AB power dimmable 36V LED cove lighting in hospitality settings?
Yes. The combination of 151.2W output, adjustable drive level, and 1-10V/PWM dimming makes it a strong fit for hotel lobbies, restaurants, or event spaces where cove lighting scenes need smooth brightness transitions. The series' typical lifetime of over 62,000 hours (at Tcase of about 80°C or less) also suits long-life commercial installations.
How many meters of 36V LED strip can the HLG-150H-36AB handle?
Divide the 151.2W rated power by your strip's rated power per meter. For example, a 36V strip drawing 12W/m could run about 12.6 meters (151.2W / 12W per meter). Always check your strip's rated power per meter and keep total load at or below 151.2W for reliable operation.
Can the HLG-150H-36AB be installed in a dusty workshop or manufacturing floor?
Yes. Its IP65 rating provides complete protection against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for workshops, factories, and manufacturing environments. For locations with heavy washdowns or standing water, the IP67-rated HLG-150H-36B with dimming would be more appropriate.
