LED driver MEAN WELL HLG-185H-C700B Output power 185W IP20

The MEAN WELL HLG-185H-C700B is an AC-DC single output LED driver intended for constant-current (CC) operation. It delivers a stable 0.7 A output current and is rated for an output voltage up to 286 V. The unit includes a built-in power factor correction (PFC) stage and supports 3-in-1 dimming methods (1–10 V, PWM, and resistance). Its rated output power is 185 W and it accepts a wide AC input range of 90–305 V. The product is manufactured by Mean Well and has MPN HLG-185H-C700B.

Advantages

The driver provides stable constant-current output suitable for high-power LED applications and integrates PFC to improve mains performance. Support for 1–10 V, PWM and resistive dimming methods allows flexible control options. Its compact housing dimensions (68 mm × 228 mm × 38.8 mm) and wide input voltage range make it usable in various installations requiring 185 W output.

Suitable for

• High-power LED modules and luminaires requiring 0.7 A constant current
• Indoor lighting fixtures and retrofit installations with 90–305 V AC supply
• Lighting systems needing dimming via 1–10 V, PWM or resistance-based controls

How to use

Install the LED driver in a suitable indoor enclosure or fixture following local electrical codes. Connect the AC input to a 90–305 V supply and wire the LED load to the constant-current output, ensuring the load voltage does not exceed the driver’s maximum output voltage. Use the provided dimming terminals to connect 1–10 V control, PWM signal, or a resistive dimmer according to the manufacturer’s wiring diagram. Allow adequate ventilation around the unit and avoid mounting in locations exposed to moisture, as the unit is rated IP20.

Recommendations

Use this driver with LED modules specified for 0.7 A forward current and ensure the total LED forward voltage falls within the driver’s output range. For reliable operation, follow Mean Well installation instructions and ensure proper heat dissipation and secure electrical connections.
