The Meanwell LPV-100-12 is an
LED power supply with an output power of 100 watts and a constant output voltage of
12 volts. It is specifically designed for outdoor use and features a
protection class IP67, meaning it is dust-tight and temporarily waterproof, even when submerged under 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes. The operating temperature ranges from -25 °C to +70 °C, enabling use in demanding climatic environments. The device measures 190 mm (length) × 52 mm (width) × 37 mm (height), making it compact enough for installation in standard LED lighting systems or other electronic equipment outdoors.
Applications
This power supply is suitable for powering LED lighting systems requiring a constant voltage of 12 V. Due to its high protection class IP67, it is particularly suited for outdoor applications such as outdoor lighting, garden lighting, street lighting, or industrial installations exposed to direct weather conditions. Its robust construction ensures reliable operation even under extreme environmental conditions.
Functions and Features in Detail
The device delivers an output power of 100 watts at 12 V, corresponding to a maximum output current of 8.30 amperes. The input voltage can be either alternating current (90–264 VAC) or direct current (127–370 VDC), providing high flexibility in power supply. The power supply operates in
constant voltage mode (CV), meaning the output voltage remains constant regardless of load. It is
not dimmable, so brightness control is not possible via the power supply itself. Power supply is via network cable, with exact wiring and installation to be carried out by qualified personnel.
Technology Explained Simply
The IP67 protection class ensures the device is protected against dust and water, which is crucial for outdoor use. The operating temperature range of -25 °C to +70 °C allows use in regions with extreme temperatures without affecting functionality. The compact design with dimensions 190×52×37 mm facilitates installation in standard enclosures or luminaires. The input voltage ranges (90–264 VAC and 127–370 VDC) make the power supply universally applicable, regardless of local power supply.
Compatibility and Accessories
Various
waterproof cable connectors and
connector boxes are available for this power supply, ensuring secure and weather-resistant connections. These include, for example, outdoor cable connectors IP68 with 2- or 3-pole terminals, waterproof connector boxes with 3 or 4 ports, and solder-shrink connectors, also IP67-certified. Additionally,
230V mains power cables with earth connection and
inrush current limiters are available as accessories, which can be helpful during installation of electrical systems. These components enable professional and safe wiring, especially in damp or open environments.
Mounting and Installation
Installation of the power supply is carried out in a protected or weather-resistant enclosure, with electrical connections to be performed exclusively by qualified personnel. Wiring must comply with applicable safety regulations, especially when used outdoors. The use of waterproof connector boxes or IP68 cable connectors supports a reliable and durable installation.
Operational Advantages
The Meanwell LPV-100-12 offers high reliability due to its IP67 protection class and wide operating temperature range. The universal input voltage enables use in various countries and power grids. The compact design and high output power make it an efficient solution for outdoor LED lighting systems. The use of suitable accessories such as waterproof cable connectors increases the safety and lifespan of the entire installation.
