LCM-40TW – Dual channel dimmable LED driver from MEAN WELL

26.06.2023

LED lighting is being improved based on the technical capabilities of its components. So, in accordance with the possibilities, multi–color illumination systems or lighting systems with different color temperatures appear - more comfortable for working or moving at different times of the day. As an example, we can cite modern metro trains with a colder light of the lighting system in the morning and a warmer one in the evening. The two-channel LCM-40TW LED driver from MEAN WELL is an ideal power source for lighting systems of this type.
