Xenerqi Limited has enhanced its 75W Ambient Lighting driver (XEL-A075A Series) by adding compatibility with general step dimmers and by allowing for external adjustment of the output current on all members in this family, providing installers and fixture makers the widest flexibility possible since they can do field adjustments as needed. The XEL-A075A is a Skinny (26mm in height) Series driver with universal input (108~305Vac), wide operating temperature range, 0-10V (2-Wire) Dimming, UL Dry/Damp and 8750 rated, CE and FCC compliant family.

The XEL-A075A Series has been designed to meet the strictest requirements of the Ambient lighting space and has been put into an industry standard T5 style metal case familiar to installers and which allows for easier retrofit implementations. At the same time, the family is optimized to work at peak efficiency for LED loads with nominal power requirements of 60~75W, which allows a single platform to work on the newest highest efficiency LED’s becoming available today as well as a providing a path into the future.

This family’s wide input voltage range, high efficiency and 5 year Warranty make it an ideal candidate for applications requiring Energy Star or DLC Certification. The XEL-A075A family has both Constant Current (CC) and Constant Voltage (CV) variants, which can drive output currents in the 1.25A ~ 3.25A range and output voltage ranges from 15 ~ 54V. This driver family is also empowered by Xenerqi’s “Custom Made Simple” program and customized variants with specific output currents or voltages can be created within a week.

This Xenerqi 60W ~ 75W series has undergone extensive compliance and certification testing. The products in this family are cUL 8750, CE, UL Dry/Damp Rated, FCC Part15/18 Class B compliant, meet Class A noise rating, meet Energy Star guidelines, abide by ROHS, and have a 5 year standard warranty.
