MeanWell HLG-185H-48A Driver

Description

Constant voltage/ constant current “A” version of 48V driver is voltage and current adjustable for maximum utility with CLU048-1818 and CLU058-1825.

HLG-185H-SPEC

Also works with 36V COBs like CLU048-1212 or CXB3590 at reduced total power output (approximately 150W) while allowing an upgrade path to 50V cobs later on. For maximum current the -36A drivers are a better fit for 36V cobs

Constant voltage/ constant current “A” version drivers offer the following advantages:

• lower maximum voltage for safer operation
• maximum flexibility for expansion – any number of COBs can be added later on. Every COB added increase efficiency of entire array

Note that dimming for “A” versions are via the potentiometer fixed to the unit- they do not offer remote dimming. Drivers are dimmable to approximately 20% of total load

Also please note all COBS must be same series of similar voltage profile, you cant mix 1212 and 1818 as the lower voltage cob will not light

Max current: 4.25A can power the following combination of COBs:
