Test conditions and notes9
- 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. The standby power consumption is specified for 230VAC.
- 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. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50,000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularly tc point (or TMP, per DLC), is about 75℃ or less.
- 7. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 8. 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).
- 9. 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

FAQ
What dimming inputs does the NPF-40D-36 support?
The NPF-40D-36 has built-in 3-in-1 dimming: 0–10VDC, 10V PWM signal, and resistance (potentiometer) control. All three are built in and applied between the DIM+ and DIM- wires, without external dimming hardware.
Is the NPF-40D-36 suitable for outdoor or damp-location installations?
Yes. The NPF-40D-36 is IP67 approved and operates at a case temperature (Tcase) of -40°C to +85°C. Its compact 150 × 53 × 35 mm IP67 housing allows mounting inside outdoor low-wattage luminaires, horticultural enclosures, and damp industrial installations.
What 36V LED applications match the NPF-40D-36's dimmable 40W output?
The NPF-40D-36 provides 1.12A constant current (40.32W) over a 21.6–36V CC region with 3-in-1 dimming. It suits compact dimmable 36V LED systems in architectural accent lighting, small commercial display fixtures, and point-of-sale lighting where 0–10V or PWM scene control at low wattage is specified.
How does the NPF-40D-36 compare to the NPF-40D-42?
Both share IP67, 3-in-1 dimming, the 150 × 53 × 35 mm housing, 90% efficiency, and 0.49 kg weight. NPF-40D-36 drives 1.12A up to 36V (40.32W, CC range 21.6–36V); NPF-40D-42 drives 0.96A up to 42V (40.32W, CC range 25.2–42V). They differ in output voltage and current; select based on your LED module's rating.
