RACT18

Description

The RACT18-xxx series are low cost, triac-dimmable, constant current 18W LED drivers available with

either 350mA, 500mA, 700mA, 1.05A or 1.4A full-range outputs. The drivers are Class II (double

insulated) meaning no earth connection is required. The phase angle dimming works with leading or

trailing edge dimmers. The RACT18 is suitable for indoor locations up to 50°C ambient temperature and

is certified for building into furniture for applications such as dimmable shelf lighting, cove lighting or

accent lighting. It is CE marked (LVD + EMC + RoHS) and has the international IEC61347-1 CB report
