Test conditions and notes14

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
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-185H-30 to power 30V LED modules for outdoor signage?

Yes. The HLG-185H-30 outputs 30V at up to 6.2A (186W), and its metal housing with IP65/IP67 ingress protection is designed for outdoor applications, making it well-suited for outdoor sign enclosures. It can power 30V channel-letter modules, light boxes, or cabinet signs in outdoor locations.

Is the HLG-185H-30 a good fit for powering 30V LED lighting in cold-storage or freezer environments?

Yes. The -40°C to +90°C case temperature range covers freezer and cold-storage conditions. At 186W and 30V output with IP65/IP67 ingress protection, it suits refrigerated spaces; note that working humidity is rated 20-95% RH non-condensing, so avoid mounting where condensation forms on the unit.

Can the HLG-185H-30 power 30V LED horticultural or grow lighting fixtures?

Yes, provided the total load stays within 186W. The 30V output with constant-current operation (CC voltage range 15-30V) provides stable drive for 30V LED grow light panels. Its IP65/IP67-rated metal housing suits greenhouses within the 20-95% RH non-condensing humidity rating, and the datasheet lists a typical life of over 62,000 hours at Tcase of about 75°C or less.

How many meters of 30V LED strip can the HLG-185H-30 power?

Divide 186W by your strip's rated power per meter. For example, a 30V strip consuming 15W/m allows about 12.4 meters (186W / 15W per meter = 12.4m). Always check your specific strip's rated wattage per meter and keep the total load at or below 186W.

Can the HLG-185H-30 be installed outdoors in extreme heat or cold?

Yes. The case temperature range of -40°C to +90°C covers arctic cold; in high heat the output load must be derated as shown in the datasheet's load-vs-temperature curve. The IP65/IP67-rated metal housing is designed for both indoor and outdoor applications.

What are the differences between the HLG-185H-30, 30A, 30AB, and 30B variants?

All four share 186W / 30V / 6.2A core specs and the same 228 x 68 x 38.8 mm housing. The base HLG-185H-30 has fixed output. The -30A adds output voltage/current adjustment via built-in potentiometer. The -30AB adds both adjustment and 3-in-1 (1-10V/PWM/resistance) dimming input. The -30B provides dimming input only, without the potentiometers.
