12VDC PLUG-IN ADAPTER SPECIFICATION SHEET
OVERVIEW
12VDC Plug-in Adapters convert 120VAC voltage to 12VDC output. An
adapter is the right choice for portable installations where hard-wiring
is not desired. These adapters may be paired with low voltage In-Line
Switches, Dimmers and RGB(W)/DMX Controls. These adapters are
available in multiple form factors and voltage/wattage combinations to
meet your low-voltage LED lighting needs.
FEATURES
• Available in wattages 6W to 60W
• Available in white and black finishes
• Short circuit, over current, over voltage, over temperature protections
• Fanless design / cooling by free-air convection
• UL Listed 1310 Class 2 models available (not available in 6W version)
