Test conditions and notes12
- 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.
- 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. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >62,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 80℃ or less.
- 10. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com.

FAQ
Can I use the HLG-150H-48A to trim the output for specific 48V LED high-bay fixtures?
Yes. The built-in potentiometer allows you to adjust the output voltage (43-53V) and current (1.92-3.2A). This is useful for matching the driver precisely to your specific 48V high-bay LED load, reducing brightness slightly, or compensating for LED forward-voltage tolerances.
Is the HLG-150H-48A suitable for powering 48V LED grow lights?
Yes. The 153.6W output at 48V with adjustable current makes it a practical choice for horticultural LED panels running at 48V. The adjustable output lets you dial in the exact drive level your grow light requires, and IP65 protection handles dust and water jets; keep humidity within the rated 20-95% RH non-condensing.
Can the HLG-150H-48A power 48V LED modules in a commercial display or light box?
Yes. At 153.6W and 48V, it provides enough power for medium-sized light boxes or display cases. The adjustable output is helpful when the LED module string voltage does not land exactly at 48V, allowing you to fine-tune the driver to reduce over-driving and extend LED lifespan.
How many meters of 48V LED strip can the HLG-150H-48A support?
The HLG-150H-48A supplies up to 153.6W at 48V. Divide 153.6 by your strip's wattage per meter. For instance, a strip rated at 14.4W/m would allow about 10.7 meters (153.6W / 14.4W per meter). Always check your strip's rated power per meter before sizing the installation.
Is the HLG-150H-48A protected enough for a semi-enclosed outdoor installation?
Yes. Its IP65 water-resistant rating protects against low-pressure water jets from any direction and dust ingress, making it suitable for installations under eaves, canopies, or in ventilated outdoor cabinets. For fully exposed outdoor mounting in direct rain, the IP67-rated HLG-150H-48 would be more appropriate.
