Test conditions and notes10
- 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. 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.
- 8. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 9. 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-320H-C3500DA with a DALI lighting control system for commercial downlights?
Yes. The DA suffix indicates a DALI interface compliant with IEC62386-101 and 102 (207 by request), allowing integration with DALI bus controllers used in commercial building management systems. At 318.5W and 3500mA constant current, it can drive high-output LED downlights whose combined forward voltage falls within the 46-91V CC range.
Is the HLG-320H-C3500DA suitable for outdoor LED fixtures controlled by a centralized DALI network?
Yes, within its IP rating. The series is IP65 or IP67 approved, so confirm this version's rating for fully exposed wet locations; the DALI interface allows centralized brightness scheduling from a building automation controller. At 3500mA and up to 318.5W, it handles high-current LED fixtures with forward voltages summing to 46-91V.
Can the HLG-320H-C3500DA power LED modules in a parking garage lighting system?
Yes. The 3500mA constant current output and 318.5W capacity are well matched to high-output LED fixtures used in parking structures. The IP65/IP67-approved enclosure handles the damp conditions typical of open or semi-open garages, and the DALI control input enables occupancy-based dimming to reduce energy use.
How do the IP65 and IP67 ratings in the HLG-320H-C3500 series compare?
IP67 adds protection against temporary immersion in water, in addition to full dust protection; IP65 protects against dust and water jets but is not immersion-rated. The sheet lists the HLG-320H-C series as IP65 or IP67 approved without assigning a rating to each version, so confirm the C3500DA's rating before installing it where standing water or heavy rain is expected.
What operating temperature range does the HLG-320H-C3500DA support?
The HLG-320H-C3500DA is rated for a case temperature (Tcase) of -40°C to +85°C; output may need derating at higher temperatures per the load-vs-temperature curve. Life expectancy exceeds 62,000 hours with Tcase at about 75°C or less. In enclosed installations near the upper limit, ensure adequate ventilation or derate the load.
How many LEDs can I connect in series to the HLG-320H-C3500DA?
The number depends on each LED's forward voltage. The driver outputs 3500mA constant current with a CC voltage range of 46-91V. Sum the forward voltages of your LEDs and confirm the total falls within that window. Because this is a relatively low voltage range, it is suited to shorter series strings of high-current LEDs.
