Test conditions and notes12

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. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristics for more details.
5. Please refer to "DRIVING METHODS OF LED MODULE".
6. Heat sink HS1,HS2 can not be shorted.
7. Heat sink HS1 must have safety isolation distance with system case.
8. 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. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
9. Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested, but is not suitable for using additional drivers.
10. 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.
11. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. All the EMC tests are been executed by mounting the unit on a 360mm*360mm metal plate with 1mm of thickness. The final equipment must be re-confirmed that it still meets EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
12. PLP-60-12 is used for any light source that exempt from the ErP-Directive (EU) 2019/2020 requirement, for example this model could be use for signalling products(including, but not limited to road-, railway-, marineorair traffic-signalling , traffic control or airfield lamps) .

FAQ

What is the output rating of the Mean Well PLP-60-12?

The PLP-60-12 is rated for 60W with a 12V output and 5A rated current. This makes it suitable for LED lighting applications that operate within its 9 to 12V constant current region and that power range.

Is the Mean Well PLP-60-12 dimmable?

The spec sheet does not list any dimming function for this model; it only specifies a current adjustment range of 3.75 to 5A. Plan for a fixed-output LED driver rather than integrated dimming control.

What types of applications is the PLP-60-12 designed for?

This model is an LED power supply intended to be installed as a component inside LED lighting equipment, driving LEDs directly. The sheet notes that the PLP-60-12 can be used for light sources exempt from the ErP Directive (EU) 2019/2020, such as road, railway, marine or air traffic signalling, traffic control or airfield lamps.

What input range does the Mean Well PLP-60-12 support?

The PLP-60-12 supports a universal AC input range of 90 to 264VAC, and it can also accept 127 to 370VDC. That wide input range helps it fit projects used across different mains power environments.

Can the PLP-60-12 be used in demanding temperature conditions?

This LED driver is rated for operation from -30°C to 70°C, with load derating at higher ambient temperatures according to the derating curve. That range makes it a practical option for environments where lighting power supplies may see both low and elevated ambient temperatures.

What protection and reliability features does the PLP-60-12 include?

The product includes short circuit (hiccup mode), over current (constant current limiting) and over voltage (15 to 18V) protection. It also features power factor correction (PF of 0.9 or higher at 75 to 100% load) and an MTBF of 583.3K hours min. (MIL-HDBK-217F, 25°C).
