■Description
APC-8 series is one 8W AC/DC constant current mode single output LED power supply. It accepts
the full range input 90~264VAC and provides four models with different output current, 250mA,
350mA, 500mA and 700mA, respectively, that the small wattage LED applications employ the
most frequently. Exploiting Class II design (without FG pin) and adopting the 94V-0 flame retardant
plastic enclosure, APC-8 ideally fits the entry-level LED applications.
Suitable for LED related
fixture or appliance
(such as LED Decoration
or Advertisement devices)

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25 of ambient temperature.℃
2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
3. Derating may be needed under low input voltage, please check the static characteristic for more details.
4. Constant current operation region is within 50% ~100% rated output voltage. This is the suitable operation region for LED related applications, but please
reconfirm special electrical requirements for some specific system design.
5. When applying DC voltage for input, please connect the brown input wire to the positive side whereas blue input wire to the negative side.
6. The unit might not be suitable for lighting applications in EU countries. Please check with your local authorities for the possible use of the unit.
7. The model certified for CCC(GB19510.14, GB19510.1, GB17743 and GB17625.1) is an optional model . Please contact MEAN WELL for details.
