What do you need to know about the protection mode of SMARTS power supply?
2020-09-23
There are many ways of power startup protection: output interrupt mode, hiccup mode, automatic load reduction mode.
In the current ip67 led power supply product series, what protection modes will appear when the protection is activated? Answer: For UL listed triac dimmable led driver and above series, only 60W and 300W overload protection modes are in hiccup mode, and the rest are in constant current mode with automatic load reduction. triac dimmable led driver(with load limit) are all in constant current mode with automatic load reduction. ETL listed triac dimmable led driver 150W, 200W are in constant current mode, the rest are in hiccup mode, it is impossible to do all of them in constant current mode and automatically reduce load
The constant current mode protection of the power supply does not cut off the output. In the case of overload, the voltage will become lower, and the current output will no longer be large. Instead, it will be in constant current output mode. The waterproof led power supply will automatically drop load and the light will dim.
