R2-H 200–480V Inter-Canopy Grow Light LED Drivers
FAHOLD R2-H is an ultra-narrow non-isolated single-channel constant-current LED driver platform developed for inter-canopy, bottom-fill, under-canopy and supplemental horticulture lighting. This high-voltage branch uses 200–480Vac rated input for commercial grow facilities that operate from higher-voltage electrical distribution.
The current range includes 60W, 120W, 150W and 200W models. All four products use a 180–260Vdc output platform for high-voltage LED-string architectures and retain the slim mechanical format required by linear horticulture fixtures installed close to crop canopies.
R2-H should be selected from the complete LED voltage, current and fixture requirements rather than wattage alone. Facility AC input, driver dimensions, control method and the finished luminaire safety architecture must also be evaluated.
Compare R2-H 60W, 120W, 150W and 200W High-Voltage Models
| Power Class | Rated Input | Output Voltage | Typical Efficiency | Typical Fixture Direction |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 60W | 200–480Vac | 180–260Vdc | 93% | Compact inter-canopy and bottom-fill bars |
| 120W | 200–480Vac | 180–260Vdc | 95% | Medium-power inter-lighting and under-canopy fixtures |
| 150W | 200–480Vac | 180–260Vdc | 96% | Commercial inter-canopy and supplemental lighting |
| 200W | 200–480Vac | 180–260Vdc | 96% | Higher-output linear horticulture fixtures |
All four products share the same broad AC input and LED output-voltage architecture. Final model selection should therefore focus on the LED load's actual operating current, maximum wattage, thermal design and the available space inside the fixture.
200–480Vac Grow Light Drivers for Commercial Horticulture
The R2-H high-voltage platform accepts 200–480Vac input, allowing compatible fixtures to be integrated into commercial horticulture facilities using higher-voltage lighting infrastructure.
This broad input platform is particularly relevant to large cultivation facilities where individual lighting circuits may operate at nominal 208V, 240V, 277V, 347V or 480V, subject to the electrical design and applicable project requirements.
The AC input range is separate from the LED output specification. R2-H converts the facility AC supply into regulated 180–260Vdc constant-current power for the horticulture LED string.
347V Inter-Canopy LED Drivers
Commercial grow facilities may use 347V-class lighting distribution, particularly where large numbers of luminaires are installed across substantial cultivation areas.
Because this R2-H branch uses a 200–480Vac rated-input platform, compatible models can be considered for inter-canopy and bottom-fill fixtures supplied from 347V-class electrical systems.
Fixture manufacturers should still verify branch-circuit requirements, insulation, wiring, connectors, grounding and certification for the finished horticulture luminaire.
480V Inter-Canopy and Under-Canopy Grow Light Drivers
480V-class electrical distribution can reduce AC current across large commercial lighting installations. R2-H provides compact 60W to 200W driver options for compatible inter-canopy fixtures that need to operate within this type of high-voltage facility infrastructure.
This creates a different use case from high-power 800W–1500W top-light drivers. R2-H allows an individual linear or bottom-fill fixture to remain relatively low in power while still connecting to a commercial high-voltage lighting system.
Always confirm that the selected model and complete fixture are approved for the actual facility voltage and intended installation.
180–260Vdc Constant-Current Output for Horticulture LED Strings
All current R2-H 200–480Vac models use a 180–260Vdc constant-current output platform. This high-voltage LED architecture is designed for long LED strings used in slim linear horticulture luminaires.
Using a higher LED-string voltage allows useful fixture power to be delivered without the very high DC currents required by lower-voltage LED-board architectures. This can influence PCB layout, cable sizing, connector design and fixture power density.
Because the R2-H platform is non-isolated, the LED output must be considered as part of the complete fixture safety architecture. PCB insulation, accessible parts, connectors, wiring, housing construction and certification requirements must all be evaluated.
Ultra-Narrow LED Driver for Inter-Canopy Lighting
Mechanical space is one of the main constraints in inter-canopy and bottom-fill lighting. Fixtures installed inside crop rows often need a narrow cross-section to avoid obstructing plants or reducing usable growing space.
R2-H uses an approximately 44mm-class enclosure width across the current platform. The 60W model measures approximately 150 × 44 × 32mm, while the 120W and 150W models use approximately 170 × 44 × 32mm enclosures.
This narrow mechanical profile allows the driver to be integrated into linear horticulture bars where conventional wider power supplies may be difficult to install.
High-Voltage Drivers for Inter-Canopy Lighting
Inter-canopy fixtures are installed within or between the crop canopy to supplement overhead lighting and improve light distribution through lower plant zones.
The R2-H 200–480Vac platform is particularly relevant when the cultivation facility uses high-voltage AC distribution but the individual inter-lighting fixture remains in the 60W–200W power range.
This allows fixture manufacturers to combine commercial high-voltage facility infrastructure with compact linear horticulture luminaires rather than using a large top-light power platform for every lighting position.
Bottom-Fill Grow Light Driver Platform
Bottom-fill lighting places LED fixtures below the upper plant canopy to improve light reaching lower leaves, fruiting zones and otherwise shaded areas.
These luminaires usually require compact mechanical dimensions and controlled electrical output. R2-H combines a narrow enclosure, programmable constant-current operation and 200–480Vac input for compatible commercial bottom-fill applications.
Under-Canopy Grow Light Drivers for High-Voltage Facilities
Under-canopy lighting creates similar mechanical requirements because fixtures must fit beneath or between crop structures while remaining accessible for installation and maintenance.
The R2-H platform is suitable for compatible under-canopy fixtures using one 180–260Vdc LED load where the building or greenhouse electrical infrastructure operates from a supported 200–480Vac supply.
Programmable 480V Horticulture LED Drivers
Compatible R2-H Type B configurations support offline output-current programming. This allows supported operating parameters to be configured within the electrical limits of the selected driver.
For OEM horticulture-lighting manufacturers, programmable current can help one driver platform support several related fixture variants rather than requiring a unique power supply for every output target.
The programmed current must remain within the permitted voltage, power and thermal operating range of the selected product.
0–10V Dimmable Inter-Canopy Grow Light Drivers
Compatible Type B configurations support 0(1)–10V control for commercial horticulture lighting systems. This enables fixture intensity to respond to crop stage, cultivation schedule, light-level strategy or centralized grow-room control.
Controller signal range, control wiring and driver compatibility should be validated with the actual lighting-control system before production.
PWM Control for Supplemental Horticulture Lighting
R2-H Type B configurations also support PWM control for fixture controllers and cultivation automation systems that provide an appropriate pulse-width modulation signal.
PWM signal voltage, frequency and interface requirements should be verified against the selected driver configuration.
No-Afterglow Shutdown for Crop Dark Periods
The current R2-H platform is designed to avoid visible afterglow after the LED output is switched off. This can be useful in controlled-environment agriculture where cultivation schedules require a defined dark period.
Low-end dimming and complete shutdown behavior should still be validated with the intended controller and LED load as part of fixture testing.
Optional 12V Auxiliary Power
R2-H provides an optional A12 configuration with a 12V / 200mA auxiliary supply for compatible fixture electronics.
This auxiliary output can support suitable low-voltage control electronics or accessories without requiring an additional small internal power supply.
The A12 option is configuration-dependent and should be specified during project development.
Power Factor and Efficiency
Current R2-H high-voltage models list power factor above 0.96. Typical efficiency is approximately 93% for 60W, 95% for 120W and 96% for the current 150W and 200W models.
Driver efficiency is particularly relevant to slim inter-canopy fixtures because electrical losses become heat inside a mechanically restricted luminaire.
Actual efficiency depends on AC input voltage, LED operating point, programmed current and thermal conditions.
DM 6kV / CM 6kV Surge Protection
Current R2-H product documentation specifies differential-mode and common-mode surge protection up to 6kV together with short-circuit, over-current and over-temperature protection.
Driver-level protection should be combined with proper facility grounding, branch-circuit protection and fixture-level electrical design in commercial horticulture installations.
cULus, FCC and Class P Horticulture Driver Platform
Current R2-H 200–480Vac product documentation lists cULus, FCC and Class P certifications for the platform. These certifications can be relevant to OEM horticulture-lighting projects targeting North American commercial installations.
Certification requirements should still be confirmed for the exact ordered configuration and complete finished luminaire because driver-level certification does not automatically certify the complete grow-light fixture.
60W R2-H 200–480V Inter-Canopy Driver
The 60W model provides a 180–260Vdc output window with approximately 0.12–0.30A programmable current capability. Typical efficiency is approximately 93%, and the enclosure measures about 150 × 44 × 32mm.
This is the most compact option in the current high-voltage R2-H range and is suitable for lower-power inter-canopy, bottom-fill and supplemental grow-light bars.
120W R2-H 200–480V Grow Light Driver
The 120W model uses the same 180–260Vdc platform with approximately 0.35–0.66A programmable output-current capability. Typical efficiency is approximately 95%, with an enclosure around 170 × 44 × 32mm.
This model is suitable for medium-power linear horticulture fixtures requiring additional LED output while preserving the ultra-narrow enclosure format.
150W R2-H 480V Inter-Canopy LED Driver
The 150W model provides approximately 0.38–0.75A across the 180–260Vdc output platform and reaches approximately 96% typical efficiency.
It is relevant to commercial inter-canopy and bottom-fill fixtures requiring higher output while retaining programmable control and a narrow linear enclosure.
200W R2-H High-Voltage Grow Light Driver
The 200W model is the highest-power product in the current 200–480Vac R2-H category. It is designed for larger inter-canopy and supplemental horticulture fixtures using the same 180–260Vdc output architecture.
For this model, final current matching should be confirmed from the latest approved FAHOLD datasheet before fixture production because current, voltage and maximum-power limits must be electrically consistent with the final 200W configuration.
R2-H 120–277V vs R2-H 200–480V
FAHOLD provides two R2-H input-voltage branches for different commercial horticulture electrical systems.
| Platform | Rated Input | Current Power Range | Typical Facility Direction |
