Overview

PLM-12E-350 is the model of this series: rated current 0.35A, rated power 12.6W, typical efficiency 85%.

PLM-12 is a 12W economical AC/DC LED power supply series. Incorporating a built-in active PFC design, PLM-12 provides a high Power Factor value greater than 0.9. In addition, with the low no load power consumption below 0.5W, and the setup time less than 500ms, PLM-12 is complied with the ErP regulation required by European Union for lighting fixtures. PLM-12 is a class Ⅱ(without FG pin) power unit housed with the UL 94V-0 rated flame retardant plastic case. The I /O terminals are designed with screw-less clamp style terminal block that greatly simplifies the wiring installation. Two types of models with different input voltage range are offered: PLM-12 series, which operates from 110~295VAC, and PLM-12E series, which operates from 180~295VAC.These two series are both constant current output design, supplying models with the current of 350mA, 500mA, 700mA and 1050mA, respectively.

Test conditions and notes7

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load 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. Please see "AC input voltage drop vs. output current characteristics"table.
4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage, please check the static characteristic for more details.
5. Constant current operation region is within 60% ~100% rated output voltage. This is the suitable operation region for LED related applications, but please reconfirm special electrical requirements for some specific system design.
6. The power supply 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.
7. Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested, but is not suitable for using additional drivers.

FAQ

What type of LED driver is the Mean Well PLM-12E-350?

The PLM-12E-350 is a constant current LED driver rated at 350mA. It delivers up to 42V output with a 12.6W power rating. This model is intended for loads that are specified for constant current operation rather than fixed-voltage output.

What kinds of applications is the PLM-12E-350 suited for?

This model is suited to LED lighting applications that require a 350mA constant current driver. Its compact plastic case, Class II design, and free-air convection cooling make it a practical choice for enclosed lighting products and general indoor commercial use. It is best matched to applications that stay within its 12.6W and 42V limits.

Is the PLM-12E-350 a dimmable LED driver?

No. The listed dimming control for this model is none, so it is a non-dimming driver. If your project requires brightness control, you would need a different driver designed with a supported dimming interface.

What input range does the PLM-12E-350 support?

This E-version model is specified for an AC input range of 180 to 295VAC, with a DC input range of 254 to 417VDC. That makes it appropriate for higher-voltage mains environments within that range. It also includes built-in active PFC as part of its design.

Can I use the PLM-12E-350 with any LED product?

Not with every LED product. It should be used with LED loads that require 350mA constant current and operate within the driver's available output range up to 42V. It is not the right choice for products that call for a constant voltage power supply.

What environmental conditions is the PLM-12E-350 designed for?

The PLM-12E-350 is rated for operation from -30°C to 50°C. It uses free-air convection cooling and has an IP30 plastic enclosure, so it is generally intended for protected indoor environments rather than exposed outdoor conditions. The isolated plastic case also supports Class II use.
