In the fast-evolving world of commercial and residential lighting in Malaysia, energy efficiency, reliability, and precision power management are critical. The LEDVANCE LED Performance Constant Current Current Selector Driver G3 42W (MPN: LVED PRO 42/220-240/1A CS G3) stands out as a premium, commercial-grade solution designed to power modern LED lighting fixtures seamlessly. Whether you are upgrading office panels, downlights, or retail architectural lighting, this Generation 3 LED driver delivers the exact current regulation required to maximize the lifespan and performance of your LED chips.
The defining feature of the LEDVANCE LVED PRO G3 series is its flexible current selector functionality. It provides an output voltage range of DC 25 - 42 V and can deliver a maximum output current of 1000 mA. This adaptability allows electrical contractors and lighting designers across Malaysia to stock a single, versatile driver component capable of servicing multiple fixture wattages, drastically reducing inventory overhead and simplifying on-site configurations during project installations.
Engineered to meet strict Malaysian and international energy standards, the LEDVANCE 42W driver operates on a standard AC 220...240 V rated input voltage, with a wide, robust tolerance range of AC 198...264 V to survive local voltage fluctuations. At full load, this driver boasts a remarkable efficiency of 89%, minimizing thermal emission and reducing total building power losses to just 5.19 W.
Furthermore, with a Power Factor of 0.97 at full load and a Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of ≤ 10%, this product ensures an incredibly clean electrical footprint. High power factor and low THD prevent unnecessary strain on your building’s electrical mains, lowering commercial electricity demand charges and preventing interference with other sensitive electronic equipment on the same circuit.
Inferior LED drivers often produce unnoticeable yet harmful high-frequency flickering, which causes eye strain and ruins photography or video recording quality in modern smart offices. The LEDVANCE LVED PRO 42W eliminates this issue by maintaining an output current ripple of less than 5% (at ≤ 120Hz). This guarantees clean, continuous, and smooth light output, making it highly suitable for high-end office workspaces, educational institutions, clinics, and display showrooms throughout Kuala Lumpur and Selangor.
Safety is paramount in electrical distribution. The LVED PRO 42/220-240/1A CS G3 features SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage) galvanic isolation, providing an inherent layer of protection against dangerous electric shocks by keeping the output circuit completely isolated from the primary AC mains. Encased in a compact, durable shell rated at IP20, it is perfectly protected against solid objects up to 12mm, making it ideal for ceiling voids, indoor trunking, and recessed fixture enclosures. It also features a 1 KV surge capability (L-N) to protect connected LED modules from sudden voltage spikes in the grid.
Investing in the LEDVANCE Performance G3 driver means investing in a maintenance-free future. Rated for a massive operational lifetime of up to 50,000 hours, this driver eliminates the frequent, costly maintenance cycles associated with generic lighting components. It is built to support optimized circuit layout designs, supporting multiple Electronic Control Gear (ECG) configurations on single circuit breakers:
Up to 19 units on a 10 A (Type B) breaker
Up to 23 units on a 16 A (Type B) breaker
Up to 37 units on a 25 A (Type B) breaker
Choose the LEDVANCE LVED PRO 42W G3 LED Driver for your next commercial fitting or lighting retrofit project in Malaysia to achieve unmatched energy savings, rock-solid electrical safety, and superior light quality.
Q1: What are the main specifications of the LEDVANCE LVED PRO 42/220-240/1A CS G3? A1: The LEDVANCE LVED PRO 42W G3 is a constant current LED driver featuring a rated input voltage of AC 220–240V, max output power of 42W, DC 25–42V output voltage, and an adjustable output current up to 1000 mA. It has an efficiency of 89%, a power factor of 0.97, and an IP20 indoor safety rating.
Q2: Is the LEDVANCE Performance 42W LED Driver dimmable? A2: No, the LEDVANCE LED Performance Constant Current Driver G3 42W (LVED PRO 42/220-240/1A CS G3) is non-dimmable (Dimmable: N).
Q3: What does the ''Current Selector'' (CS) feature mean on this LEDVANCE driver? A3: The Current Selector (CS) feature allows electrical installers to adjust and select the precise output current (up to 1000 mA) required by the specific LED fixture, giving it the versatility to power different lighting setups within its 42W maximum capacity.
Q4: What is the benefit of the SELV isolation rating on this LED driver? A4: SELV stands for Safety Extra-Low Voltage. The SELV galvanic isolation on this LEDVANCE driver ensures that the output circuit is physically isolated from the dangerous high-voltage AC mains, guaranteeing user safety against electrical shocks during maintenance.
Q5: How many LEDVANCE 42W G3 drivers can be installed on a 16A Type B circuit breaker? A5: You can safely install a maximum of 23 units of the LEDVANCE LVED PRO 42W G3 driver on a standard 16 A (Type B) circuit breaker due to its managed 20 A inrush current configuration.
Q6: Does this LED driver cause lights to flicker? A6: No. With an output current ripple of less than 5% at ≤ 120Hz, this LEDVANCE driver delivers steady, premium-quality current that guarantees stable, flicker-free illumination, minimizing eye strain.
Q7: What is the power factor rating of the LEDVANCE LVED PRO 42W driver? A7: The driver features an incredibly high power factor of 0.97 at full load, which maximizes electrical efficiency and reduces reactive power waste within building networks.
Q8: Can this LEDVANCE IP20 driver be used for outdoor lighting in Malaysia? A8: The driver has an IP20 rating, meaning it is protected against solid foreign objects but lacks water protection. It should only be used for indoor lighting applications or housed inside a separate weatherproof, IP-rated enclosure for outdoor setups.
Q9: What is the expected lifespan of the LEDVANCE LVED PRO 42W G3 driver? A9: This Generation 3 professional LED driver is engineered for commercial longevity, offering an operational lifespan of up to 50,000 hours under optimal working conditions.
