Collingwood DRV3001050 42W CC Driver IP20 350mA-1050mA Dip-Switch

A driver built to fit the job, not the other way round

The DRV3001050 is a 42W constant current LED driver from Collingwood, made to sit quietly out of sight and do exactly what an installer needs it to do. Rather than being locked to one fixed output, it lets you dial in the right current for the fitting on the end of the cable.

The spec in plain terms

This driver runs as Class II SELV, so it is fully isolated from the mains side and safe to specify in the usual low voltage LED runs. Output current is adjustable from 300 to 1050mA using the onboard DIP switches, with a forward voltage range of 9 to 52V DC. That spread covers a wide run of Collingwood constant current panels and downlights from a single driver model, so there is less need to stock several fixed output versions for different projects.

How It Works

Flick the DIP switches to the setting that matches the current your fitting is designed for, then wire it in. The driver takes a 220 to 240V AC mains supply and converts it to a steady constant current output, holding the LED load stable rather than letting it drift as it warms up. Terminals are push-fit, so there is no need for a screwdriver on site. It is not a dimmable driver, so pair it with fittings and switching that are designed to run at full output.

Where It Works Best

This is an indoor accessory, rated IP20, so it belongs inside a ceiling void, cabinet, plant room or behind a panel rather than anywhere exposed to damp or splashing. It suits commercial fit outs and residential installations alike wherever Collingwood constant current panels or downlights are being wired in, particularly on jobs where several fittings with different output needs are being run from a shared type of driver. Electricians and shopfitters working to a tight ceiling void will appreciate the compact case and simple DIP switch setup.

About Collingwood Lighting

Collingwood Lighting designs and manufactures its LED products from Sywell in Northamptonshire, and has focused on LED technology since 2002. The brand says it was among the first to bring fire rated, fully sealed and mains dimmable LED products to the UK electrical wholesale market, and its approach to engineering runs through accessories like this driver as much as its light fittings. Collingwood has also been awarded a Gold medal by EcoVadis, placing it among the top 5% of companies assessed globally for sustainability.

Questions People Ask

Can I dim lights connected to this driver?

No. The DRV3001050 is a non dimmable, constant current driver, so any fitting connected to it will run at fixed output.

How do I set the output current?

The output is set using the built in DIP switches, giving a range of 300 to 1050mA in fixed steps, so you can match the driver to the forward current your fitting needs.

Can this driver be used outdoors?

No. It is rated IP20, which covers indoor use only. It should be fitted somewhere dry and protected, such as a ceiling void or cabinet, not anywhere exposed to moisture.

Does it need an electrician to install?

Yes. It connects to a mains supply, so Moonlight Design recommends fitting by a registered NICEIC electrician.
