60W DALI LED Drivers with Aux Output for Sensors

August 24, 2016 by Jeff Shepard

Inventronics has announced the release of a family of 60W slim, programmable, constant-current LED drivers for panel and linear lighting. This can include classrooms, office buildings, hospitality, doctor's offices and museums. These 2nd generation drivers were redesigned to have a longer life and more compact size resulting in greater design freedom.

The LUD-060SxxxBS2 series can be programmed for Dali or push dimming and has 5 constant-power models to deliver the full 60W at almost any output current from 385 mA to 2100 mA. The output signal has been upgraded to use Constant Current Regulation (CCR) with low ripple which provides a higher quality of light allowing each model to offer low flicker free dimming down to 5%.

They also provide a 12V/200mA auxiliary output and dim-to-off with ≤ 0.5W standby power consumption, making it suited for operation with a wide variety of sensors and controls for even greater energy savings. These products all operate over a 90- to 305-Vac input range and provide excellent power factor correction (0.99 at 120V and 0.96 at 220V).

The high efficiency and robust thermal design of these drivers enable them to run cooler, significantly improving reliability and extending product life. The lifetime of these drivers is calculated to be at least 107,000 hours when operating at 80% load with a case temperature of 60 degrees C.

To help ensure trouble-free operation, these drivers also feature over-voltage and over-temperature protection for both driver and external LED array, and short-circuit protection. The slim metal housing is IP20 rated, making this 60W DALI LED Driver suitable for indoor applications.

This new series is approved to UL, ENEC, TUV, CE, FCC, CB, Circle K, Double Insulation and DALI standards. Production quantities of LUD-060SxxxBS2 are available now.
