Overview
PWM-60-24DA is the 24V output model of this series: rated current 2.5A, rated power 60W, typical efficiency 89%.
PWM-60 series is a 60W LED AC/DC LED driver featuring the constant voltage mode with PWM style output, which is able to maintain the brightness homogeneity when driving all kinds of LED strips. PWM-60 operates from 90~305VAC and offers models with different rated voltage ranging between 12V and 48V. Thanks to the high efficiency up to 90%, with the fanless design, the entire series is able to operate for -40℃ ~ +85℃ case temperature under free air convection. The entire series is rated with IP67 ingress protection level and is suitable to work for dry, damp or wet locations. PWM-60 is equipped with dimming function that varies the duty cycle of the output, providing great flexibility for LED strips applications.

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 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)
- 5. 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.
- 6. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com
- 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. 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
- 9. Based on IEC 62386-101/102 DALI power on timing and interruption regulations, the set up time needs to test with a DALI controller which can support for DALI power on function, otherwise the set up time will be higher than 0.5 second for DA type.

FAQ
Can I use the PWM-60-24DA in a DALI smart lighting system?
Yes. The PWM-60-24DA includes a DALI input, allowing it to be addressed and dimmed individually over a DALI bus. This makes it suitable for intelligent building lighting systems and zone-controlled commercial LED installations at 24V.
Is the PWM-60-24DA suitable for outdoor LED display panels?
Yes. With an IP67 waterproof rating, the PWM-60-24DA can be installed in outdoor environments exposed to rain and moisture. Its -40°C to +85°C operating range and DALI dimming support make it a strong choice for remotely controlled outdoor LED signage.
Can the PWM-60-24DA power a dimmable 24V LED strip in a retail display?
Yes. Retail display lighting at 24V with DALI-based dimming control is a well-suited application. The driver outputs up to 60W at 2.5A, which is enough to run moderate-length 24V LED strips. DALI allows the strip brightness to be adjusted from a central controller without additional dimmer hardware at the fixture.
How much 24V LED strip can the PWM-60-24DA support?
The PWM-60-24DA has a maximum output of 60W. Divide that by your strip's power draw per meter to calculate maximum length — a 10 W/m strip could run up to 6 meters, while a 20 W/m strip is limited to about 3 meters. Apply an 80% derating rule for continuous use, reducing usable capacity to 48W.
Does the PWM-60-24DA need an earth ground in the enclosure?
No. Like all PWM series drivers, the PWM-60-24DA features a Class II design without a functional ground (FG), so no earth connection is needed. This is particularly useful when mounting inside plastic weatherproof enclosures.
What is the difference between the PWM-60-24DA and PWM-60-24DA2?
Both are 60W, 24V, 2.5A IP67 drivers in the same physical housing. The PWM-60-24DA uses the original DALI protocol, while the PWM-60-24DA2 supports the newer DALI2 standard, which offers improved interoperability and device query capabilities. Choose DA2 if your DALI controller or luminaires require DALI2 compliance.
