Description
The Diode LED DI-MLV 24V Magnetic LED Dimmable Driver converts line-voltage AC power into stable 24V DC output for compatible constant-voltage LED tape light and linear-lighting systems. Its magnetic low-voltage design supports forward-phase dimming, making it a dependable choice for residential, hospitality, retail and commercial installations using compatible MLV wall dimmers or standard on/off controls.
The hardwired driver is available in multiple capacities for projects ranging from short accent-lighting runs to larger multi-zone systems. Standard 120VAC models are offered from 20W through 300W, with Class 2 options available through 96W and multi-tap configurations for dividing higher-capacity power across separate LED loads.
Product Features
- Supplies regulated 24V DC constant-voltage output for compatible Diode LED tape light and other approved 24V LED lighting products.
- Supports smooth forward-phase control when paired with a compatible magnetic low-voltage dimmer selected for the connected load.
- Is available in standard 120VAC configurations rated at 20W, 40W, 60W, 96W, 150W, 200W and 300W.
- Provides multi-tap options for larger projects requiring separate low-voltage output circuits.
◦ The 192W model provides two 96W output sections.
◦ The 288W model provides three 96W output sections. - Is also offered in select 277VAC input versions for commercial electrical systems, including 20W, 40W, 96W, 200W and 300W configurations.
- Requires the connected lighting load to remain within the specified operating range for the selected driver.
◦ Maximum connected loads are approximately 80% of the driver’s nominal wattage, including 16W on the 20W model and 77W on the 96W model.
◦ Minimum-load requirements vary by wattage and should be confirmed during system design to maintain proper dimming performance. - Maintains Class 2 output on the 20W, 40W, 60W and 96W models for simplified low-voltage wiring within applicable code requirements.
- Uses hardwired terminal connections on the input and output sides for secure, permanent installation by a qualified electrician.
- Includes primary and secondary auto-reset protection to help safeguard the driver and connected lighting system from qualifying electrical faults.
- Features a durable NEMA 3R enclosure suitable for indoor or outdoor installations when mounted and protected according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Must be installed in the specified vertical mounting orientation; horizontal or upside-down mounting can affect operation and void warranty coverage.
- Operates in ambient temperatures from approximately -4°F to 104°F, with internal operating capability rated up to 158°F.
- Works with many commonly specified dimmers from Lutron, Leviton and Legrand, although compatibility and dimmer load ratings should be verified before installation.
- Is recommended for most compatible Diode LED tape-light families but is not intended for VALENT®, STREAMLITE™ or ALPHATECH® tape-light systems.
- Carries an ETL listing for compliance with applicable United States and Canadian electrical safety standards.
- Is backed by Diode LED’s 5-year limited warranty when properly selected, installed and operated within published specifications.
