You must choose the proper power supply for your LEDs whether you are creating your own LED fixture, repairing and upgrading old fixtures, or buying new LED lights. To make your LEDs function properly, you will either require a constant current LED source or a constant voltage power source (or a mix of both). When selecting a power source for LED lighting, there are several different things to keep in mind. This blog by Power Supply Mall will go over all of those various criteria and assist you in choosing the best power source like LPV 60 24 for your LEDs.
1) Wattage:- Find
out how many watts your lamp will use before you do anything else.You must add
the wattages together to determine the overall number of watts consumed if you
intend to power more than one light with a single power source. Give yourself a
20% buffer over the total wattage you determine from your LEDs to ensure that
your power supply is big enough. Finding a power supply like LPV 60 24 rated for that wattage is as simple
as multiplying your total wattage by 1.2.
2) Voltage/Current:- It
is crucial to first make sure that the output voltage is suitable with the LEDs
voltage before creating an LED fixture or replacing a defective power supply
like LPV 100 24. The majority
of LED products with integrated current regulators are rather excellent about
indicating what input voltage should be utilised.For instance, our LED flex
strips would need a 12V power source as that is what they need.
3) Weather and Temperature:- The
location and environment in which your power supply will be utilized are
critical considerations that cannot be disregarded. LED drivers from Power Supply
Mall work best when utilized within their recommended temperature ranges. A
safe operating temperature range should be included in the power supply
specifications. The best course of action is to operate within this range and
to avoid installing your power supply in an area where heat can accumulate and
rise over this recommended operating temperature. Generally speaking, placing a
power source in a small container devoid of a ventilation system is a terrible
idea. As a result, even the slight heat generated by the source will have time
to build up and eventually burn the power supply MA.
Make sure the environment isn't very hot or chilly and that the heat cannot
increase to dangerous levels.
4) Efficiency:- The
amount of electricity that really goes towards making the LED light up is
indicated by a power supply's efficiency. The more electricity you end up
conserving, the greater the power supply's efficiency % is. It is advisable to
choose a power supply with 80% efficiency or above for LED applications. For
the most effective option, look for Mean Well LPV 60 24 power supplies, both of which have efficiency ratings
that are far over the 90th percentile.
