Getting the light level right with new low cost TRIAC dimmable drivers

RECOM has introduced four new LED drivers with 9W, 12W, 18W and 25W outputs. They deliver 1% to 100% leading-edge or trailing-edge TRIAC-controlled dimming at the market’s most affordable prices. These LED drivers are designed for either retrofit or new installations and allow the user to set the lighting atmosphere and mood in homes, spotlighting and furniture installations. The new series are low cost, triac-dimmable LED drivers available with constant current outputs ranging from 300mA up to 1400mA. Both leading and trailing edge phase angle control makes them suitable for many standard dimmers for a wide range of applications. The series are ideal for indoor locations up to 50C ambient temperature and are certified for building into furniture for applications such as dimmable shelf lighting, cove lighting or accent lighting. Integrated cable clamps and extra-large screw terminals make for an easy installation. The Class II (double insulated) design means that no earth connection is required. They are CE marked (LVD + EMC + RoHS) and have IEC61347-1/IEC61347-2-13 CB reports.
