Test conditions and notes5
  1. 1. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
  2. 2. Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested, but is not suitable for using additional drivers.
  3. 3. 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.
  4. 4. 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).
  5. 5. 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

Can the PLD-16-700B run a 700mA LED downlight?

Yes, if the downlight is specified for 700mA constant current and its LED string operates within the 16-24V constant current range. With a 16.8W rating, it is aimed at smaller downlight loads in that range. It is a constant current model, so it should not be substituted for a constant voltage supply.

Is the PLD-16-700B appropriate for LED display or accent arrays?

Yes, for small LED arrays that require 700mA constant current and have a total forward voltage between 16V and 24V. The actual number of LEDs depends on the forward voltage of each LED. The output power limit is 16.8W.

Can I use this driver for constant current signage lighting?

Yes, if the signage lighting is built around a 700mA constant current load within the 16-24V CC range. It is not suitable for standard constant voltage signage modules that expect a fixed DC voltage. The distinction between constant current and constant voltage matters here.

What kind of LED load matches the PLD-16-700B?

A compatible load requires 700mA constant current and must operate within the driver's 16-24V constant current range. The number of LEDs is determined by the forward voltage of each LED rather than a single stated count. Total load power should remain within 16.8W.

Is the PLD-16-700B suitable for exposed outdoor conditions?

No, the IP42 rating points to use in protected areas instead of exposed outdoor environments. The driver is rated for operation from -30°C to +50°C, which covers a broad temperature range, but ingress protection is still limited to IP42. It is better suited to enclosed or sheltered installations.
