Figure 1.1 Derating diagram
To avoid temperature rise affecting lifetime, it is recommended not to use configurations in the derating area of the diagram above. The green area
indicates the highest efficiency area of POWERdrive 6060/R.
Calculation examples in the high efficiency area, using the formula (number of LED outputs) * ( Iout ) * ( VLED )
Using all 32 LED outputs:
32 LED outputs * 0.5A * 37.5V = 600W
32 LED outputs * 0.45A * 41.6V = 599W
32 LED outputs * 0.4A * 46.8V = 600W
Using 16 LED outputs:
16 LED outputs * 1A * 37.5V = 600W
16 LED outputs * 0.9A * 41.6V = 599W
16 LED outputs * 0.8A * 46.8V = 600W

2. Wiring
2.1 Wiring specifications
2.1.1 General wiring specifications
AWG20 – AWG16, 0.5-1.5mm2
The maximum length of LED wiring is 100m / 328ft from LED output to LED load when using 16 AWG type wires.
Refer to the table below for the maximum LED wiring length for other wire types:
Please observe a voltage drop over long wire lengths: the longer the wire length between LED output and LED load, the lower the forward voltage is
that is available to you per LED output.
