The power supply unit of the LED strip is a necessary component of high-quality lighting
Buying a power supply unit for an LED strip is a necessary step for its productive operation. It is needed, first of all, to reduce the voltage entering the tape from the network. Also, it can be used for other lighting devices, as it serves to stabilize the voltage, which is very important for their long and productive work. Reliable power supply unit - increases the service life of the LED strip due to the fact that it has protection against short circuit, overload of the system, overvoltage and overheating.
There are several types of power supply for the diode strip, therefore, when choosing a device, two main parameters should be taken into account - the supply voltage and the power of the LED strip itself. How is it calculated? The first parameter, as a rule, is already in the characteristics of the LED strip or on its packaging. To find out the second, it is necessary to multiply its power by the length. We add to it 20 - 30% of the power that will go to the conductors, round the number and get the desired figure. The power of the LED strip is measured in watts (W).
Power supply unit for LED strip - how to connect?
The power supply unit for the tape is connected using the terminals marked:
L – phase;
N is zero;
G – for grounding;
-V and +V – for the LED strip.
L and N are the main inputs of the adapter, where the 220 V mains power is connected. If there is no grounding in your scheme, then we simply leave this terminal empty. Outputs V are intended for closing the LED strip.
Why are some power supplies perforated? Made of aluminum, they provide the best heat dissipation. Since any work involves the heating of devices, this method provides the adapter with passive cooling - the heat is more evenly distributed throughout the case. There are also options for units with active cooling, when a fan is installed inside the case. Such models are smaller in size, but create a little noise during operation.
The power supply unit for the LED strip is another tangible advantage of the adapter
Among other things, LED strips are characterized by a particularly strong case, and hermetic bulbs are also resistant to any adverse environmental conditions, such as moisture, pollution or temperature instability.
Other advantages include:
compact block sizes;
light weight of the adapter;
simplicity of design;
the built-in dimmer allows you to adjust the brightness of the light and the color of the backlight;
some models can be controlled remotely using a remote control;
high-quality components that provide it with long and productive work;
manufacturer's warranty from 2 to 5 years, depending on the selected model.
Diode tape power supply unit - application practice
The bp LED strip that you can buy now is calculated proportionally. For example, when connecting 5 meters of 12 V tape, the difference in brightness between the first and last diode will be imperceptible. But if you increase the length of the tape to 10 meters, then at the end it will burn less brightly than at the beginning. Therefore, in order not to lose the light, it is necessary to use a larger adapter. It is more optimal to connect several adapters in a chain, but you need to use only a parallel connection.
