Recom’s new RACD100 and RACD150 series are designed for indoor and outdoor applications running on 115 V a.c., 230 V a.c. or even up to 277 V a.c. Applications include street and walkway lighting, LED signage, outdoor area lighting for car parks, public buildings or tunnels.
The RACD150 series is a 150 W fully sealed IP67 LED driver with an extended universal input voltage range of 90–305 V a.c. and constant-current output from 3,2 A to 6,3 A at voltages from 24 V up to 48 V.
The RACD100 series offers 100 W of power with the same universal input voltage range and IP67 rating, but with constant-current output from 2,1 A to 8,3 A at voltages from 12 V up to 48 V.
Both series feature dual mode operation for either constant current or constant voltage, making them suitable for driving LEDs directly or via local constant-current DC/DC modules directly on the light engine board.
The converters operate with full load efficiencies of more than 90%, feature active PFC with power factors exceeding 0,98 and are fully protected against short circuit, open circuit, overload and over-temperature conditions.
The RACD100/150 are Class 1 power supplies, housed in a metal case with 300 mm lead wires, and are rated for ambient temperatures of -30°C to +70°C with a maximum case temperature of 95°C. They carry numerous approval certificates and come with a five-year warranty.
