LED60W-012-C5000

LED Drives are becoming increasingly popular as they help to reduce energy consumption, provide increased reliablity and require less maintenance than its traditional counterparts. LEDs consume significantly less energy than incandescent bulbs, and LED Drivers, such as the LED60W-012-C5000, are specifically designed to harness the power of LEDs, controlling them to deliver a specified output of light.

Application Field and Working Principle

The LED60W-012-C5000, manufactured by G&C Electronics, is a professional-grade LED driver which is able to provide a constant current output of up to 5000mA, making it ideal for a variety of applications.

Typical applications of the LED60W-012-C5000 include street lighting, plant lighting and lighting in low-light industrial environments. In addition to providing a consistent current output, the driver also provides protection against transient events and over-voltage conditions, making it suitable for more challenging operating circumstances. It also features a wide voltage input range from 90VAC to 277VAC.

The LED60W-012-C5000 is a constant current device, which means the current flowing through the LED stays the same regardless of the voltage applied to it. This helps ensure that the LED operates within its rated parameters and delivers a consistent level of light over its lifetime, as opposed to fluctuating due to the changing LED voltage.

The driver works by converting the mains voltage to a DC voltage, and then using a series of current limiting resistors to provide a constant output current. It also features a current limiting circuit to protect the LEDs from damage due to over-current or short-circuit conditions. This ensures the connected LED is delivered with a consistent, safe current level which will not cause any damage to the device.

In addition to providing current protection, the driver is also able to monitor the connected LED and will automatically shut down if the output is interrupted. This ensures the connected LED is not damaged in case of a line-voltage interruption.

The LED60W-012-C5000 is a highly reliable device, designed to operate in the harshest of environments. In addition to its wide voltage input range and high current output, the driver also offers protection against short-circuit, over-voltage and over-temperature conditions, making it a suitable device for a wide range of industrial applications.
