Test conditions and notes8
- 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated current and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 2. De-rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please refer to “STATIC CHARACTERISTIC” sections for details.
- 3. 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.
- 4. Efficiency is measured at 500mA/50V output set by DIP switch.
- 5. Standby power consumption is measured at 230VAC.
- 6. 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)
- 7. 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).
- 8. To fulfill requirements of the latest ErP regulation for lighting fixtures, this LED power supply can only be used behind a switch without permanently connected to the mains.

FAQ
Can I use the LCM-25 for LED downlights?
Yes, the LCM-25 is a constant current LED driver rated at 25.2W with a 700mA default output current. Its 6-36V output range at 700mA makes it suitable for LED downlights that are designed for constant current operation within that range, and it also includes built-in 3 in 1 dimming (0-10VDC, 10V PWM or resistance).
Is the LCM-25 suitable for signage LED modules?
It can be used for signage modules if the modules require constant current rather than constant voltage. This driver provides 700mA by default across a 6-36V CC range, so the total forward voltage of the module string needs to stay inside that range and within the 25.2W rating.
Can the LCM-25 run a small LED array?
Yes, it is intended for constant current LED loads such as small LED arrays when the array fits a 6-36V CC range at 700mA default. The 25.2W limit sets the driver size, so it is better suited to smaller arrays than higher-power assemblies.
How do I know if the LCM-25 is compatible with my LEDs?
Check that your LEDs require a constant current driver and that their combined forward voltage falls within the output voltage range of the current you select by DIP switch: 6-36V at the 700mA default, from 6-54V at 350mA down to 6-24V at 1050mA. The number of LEDs depends on each LED's forward voltage, so this should not be sized like a constant voltage supply.
