Q: What is the Mean Well LRS-350-24 power supply used for?
A: The LRS-350-24 is a 24V, 350W indoor AC-DC power supply for higher-power low-voltage systems. It is commonly used to power long runs of 24V LED strip lights, LED controllers, and other DC devices that require a stable 24V output up to 14.6A.
Q: Who is this 24V 350W power supply designed for?
A: This model is designed for electricians, lighting installers, integrators, and advanced DIY users building larger 24V lighting or control systems. It suits residential, commercial, retail, and display projects that need a UL-recognized indoor 24V source with more power headroom than 150W class supplies.
Q: Is the LRS-350-24 dimmable, and how can it be used with dimmers?
A: The LRS-350-24 itself is non-dimmable and does not connect directly to wall dimmers. For dimming, it is typically paired with a compatible 24V LED controller or dimmer between the power supply and the LED strips, allowing brightness and color adjustment on the low-voltage side.
Q: What are the key electrical and physical specifications of this power supply?
A: The unit accepts approximately 85–132V AC input at 47–63 Hz via a manual input-voltage switch and provides 24V DC output up to 350W (14.6A). It features IP20 protection, a vented metal housing, and approximate dimensions of 8.5 × 4.5 × 1.2 inches (215 × 115 × 30 mm) for indoor use.
Q: Can this power supply be used outdoors or in damp locations?
A: No. This model is rated IP20 and intended for dry, indoor locations only. For outdoor or damp environments, a power supply with a higher IP rating and a suitable enclosure should be used to protect against moisture and dust.
Q: What devices are compatible with this 24V 350W supply?
A: Any 24V DC device within the 350W power budget is compatible, including 24V LED strip lights, LED controllers, amplifiers, CCTV cameras, and other low-voltage electronics. The total combined load across all devices should not exceed 350 watts or 14.6 amps at 24V.
Q: How should this power supply be installed and maintained?
A: The LRS-350-24 should be mounted in a well-ventilated indoor area, with wiring completed by a qualified person following local electrical codes. Periodic checks for secure connections, fan operation, clear airflow, and minimal dust buildup around vents help maintain long-term performance and thermal stability.
