Innovations in Optics (Woburn, Mass.) today announced it has added Model 5000H switched-mode LED driver/controller to power its patented and patent-pending high-power LED light engines.

The 5000H LED driver provides constant current in continuous or pulsed mode for LED arrays connected in parallel, single large-format LED chips and laser diodes with a compliance voltage up to 7.0 VDC. The new model may also be used with third-party LED illuminators as a constant current, DC to DC driver/controller.

The 5000H series is a digital LED driver/controller that provides high DC current up to 40A continuous and 50A pulsed. Intended for lab bench or OEM applications, the driver/controller uses Modbus RS-485 serial protocol to support remote or automated operation. Additional I/O includes analog intensity control and PWM 24VDC output for cooling fans mounted to an LED illuminator with thermistor-controlled, closed-loop temperature regulation.

The device can be bench-, panel- or DIN rail-mounted. Two options selected at time of order support either common anode or common cathode LED arrays. Available accessories include power cables, communication cables, AC to DC external power adapters and a DIN rail-mount kit.
