The Armacost Lighting 860600 is a versatile and high-performance LED driver designed to provide steady, low-voltage power to a wide range of LED lighting installations. This 24V DC constant voltage power supply offers smooth, flicker-free dimming from 0% to 100%, making it an ideal choice for LED strips, modules, light bars, puck lights, under-cabinet lighting, and other LED accent lights.
One of the standout features of the Armacost Lighting 860600 is its compatibility with both 120V AC dimmers and lighting controls, as well as low-voltage DC dimmers and controls. This flexibility allows users to seamlessly integrate the LED driver into their existing lighting setup or choose from a variety of compatible dimming options.
The LED driver is designed to work with Armacost’s own low-voltage dimmers and RGB color controllers, ensuring a cohesive and reliable lighting system. With an input voltage of 100-120V AC at 50/60Hz and an output voltage of 24V DC, the Armacost Lighting 860600 delivers a constant 60 watts of power at a maximum of 2A.
To achieve optimal AC dimming performance, it is recommended to use a forward phase CL-style or equivalent dimmer. The use of reverse phase or ELV dimmers may degrade the dimming performance of the LED driver.

Installation and Usage
To install the Armacost Lighting 860600 LED driver, follow these steps:
Ensure that the power is turned off at the circuit breaker or by unplugging the device.
Connect the LED lights to the output terminals of the LED driver.
Connect the input terminals of the LED driver to the power source (100-120V AC) using the detachable AC power cord.
If using a dimmer, connect the dimmer to the input terminals of the LED driver.
Secure the LED driver in a suitable location, such as a junction box or behind a fixture.
Turn on the power and test the LED lights and dimmer functionality.
It is important to ensure that the LED driver is not overloaded and that the total wattage of the connected LED lights does not exceed the maximum output of the driver (60 watts). Additionally, the LED driver should be installed in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating.
