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. 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.
- 10. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com.
- 11. 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).
- 12. 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
- 13. For A/AB type need to consider build in using to comply with Type HL application.

FAQ
Can I use the HLG-80H-15AB to power 15V LED strip lighting in a covered outdoor setting?
Yes. The HLG-80H-15AB outputs 15V at up to 5A (75W) and has an IP65-rated metal housing designed for indoor and outdoor applications, so it suits covered patios, soffits, or canopies. For fully exposed rain locations, consider the IP67-rated HLG-80H-15B instead.
Is the HLG-80H-15AB a good choice for powering 15V LED channel-letter signs?
Yes. With 75W at 15V, it can drive 15V LED sign modules comfortably. The built-in potentiometer lets you fine-tune the output current (3-5A) to match the module string, and the 3-in-1 dimming input (1-10V, PWM or resistance) allows automated brightness scheduling for storefront signs.
Can I dim the HLG-80H-15AB with a 1-10V or PWM signal for scene control?
Yes. The AB suffix means this model accepts 1-10VDC, 10V PWM (100Hz-3KHz) or resistance dimming signals. Combined with its output current potentiometer, you can set a baseline output level and then dim further via an external controller for scene or daylight-responsive control.
How many meters of 15V LED strip can the HLG-80H-15AB power?
That depends on the strip's rated power per meter. The HLG-80H-15AB supplies up to 75W at 15V. For example, if your strip draws 10W/m, you could run up to 7.5 meters (75W / 10W per meter = 7.5m). Always check your strip's rated power per meter and keep total load at or below 75W.
Can the HLG-80H-15AB handle freezing temperatures in an unheated outdoor enclosure?
Yes. Its rated case temperature (Tcase) range is -40°C to +80°C, so it can start and run in sub-zero conditions. It is a fanless design cooled by free-air convection; in warm enclosures keep the case at or below +80°C and derate the load per the sheet's load vs temperature curve.
What are the differences between the HLG-80H-15, 15A, 15AB, and 15B models?
All four share the same 75W / 15V / 5A core specs and 195.6 x 61.5 x 38.8 mm dimensions. The base HLG-80H-15 has no output adjustment and is IP67. The -15A adds output voltage/current adjustment via built-in potentiometers and is IP65. The -15AB adds output current adjustment and a 3-in-1 dimming input (IP65). The -15B adds the dimming input only and retains IP67.
