■ Description
LDC-55 series is a 55W AC/DC LED driver featuring the Constant Power mode output. LDC-55
operates from 180~295VAC and output current can be adjust between 500mA to 1600mA.
Thanks to the efficiency up to 90%, with the fanless design, the entire series is able to operate
for -25 ~+80case temperature under free air convection.LDC-55 is equipped with various℃℃
function options, such as dimming methodologies, so as to provide the optimal design flexibility
for LED lighting system.

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, ratedand 25 of ambient temperature.current℃
2. Please refer to "".OUTPUT CURRENT SETTING
3. De rating may be needed under low input voltages. Please.-refer to STATIC CHARACTERISTIC sections for details
4. Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
5. The driver is considered as a component that will be operated in combination with final equipment. Since EMC performance will be affected by the
complete installation, the final equipment manufacturers must re-qualify EMC Directive on the complete installation again.
6. This series meets the typical life expectancy of >50000 hours of operation when Tcase, particularlypoint (or TMP, per DLC), is about 70 or less.℃tc
7. Please refer to the warranty statement on MEAN WELL's website at http://www.meanwell.com.

※ 3 in 1 dimming function(for B-Type)
Output constant current level can be adjusted by applying one of the three methodologies between DIM+ and DIM-:
0 ~ 10VDC, or 10V PWM signal or resistance.
Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested. It is not suitable to be used with additional drivers.
Dimming source current from power supply: 100 A(typ.)μ

Note : 1. Min. dimming level is about 8% and the output current is not defined when 0%< out<8%.I
2. The output current could drop down to 0% when dimming input is about 0Vdc or 10V PWM signal with 0% duty cycle.
3. To ensure the dimming performance at low dimming level,output current must be over 75mA.

◎ PUSH dimming(primary side)
ActionFunctionAction duration
Short push 0.1~1 sec.Turn ON-OFF the driver
Long push 1.5~10 sec.Every Long Push changes the dimming direction, dimming up or down
Reset>11 sec.Set up the dimming level to 100%
The factory default dimming level is at 100%.
If the push action lasts less than 0.05 sec., it will not lead to a change for the status of the driver.
Up to 10 drivers can perform the PUSH dimming at the same time when utilizing one common push button.
The maximum length of the cable from the push button to the last driver is 20 meters.
The additive push button can be connected only between the LS terminal, as displayed in the diagram,
and AC/L (in brown or black); it will lead to short circuit if it is connected toAC/N.

TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION OPERATION
LDC-55 have the built-in temperature compensation function ; by connecting a temperature sensor (NTC terminal) between the +NTC / -NTC
terminal of LDC-55 and the detecting point on the lighting system or the surrounding environment, output current of LDC-55 could be
correspondingly changed, based on the sensed temperature, to ensure the long life of LED.

◎ LDC-55 can still be operated normally when the NTC resistor is not connected and the value of output current will be the current level selected
through the IADJ. pin

Notes: 1. MEAN WELL does not offer the NTC resistor and all the data above are measured by using resistor.
2. If new brand of NTC resistor is applied,please check the temperature curve first.
◎ Dimming function of the driver will be invalid when the "temperature compensation" function is in use.
