Description
The power supply behind a low voltage magnetic track run, this constant voltage unit takes the mains down to a steady 48V DC and gives you up to 100W to spend on fittings. The case is long, narrow and shallow, closer to a flat bar than a box, and the black finish keeps it quiet alongside dark trackwork. It is non-dimmable, so the output sits at one level. We treat it as our default driver for the Magneto track range.
One driver feeds one track circuit, so sizing is really an arithmetic job: total the wattage of every spot, pendant or linear head on that circuit, leave a little headroom, and split a long run across more than one unit if the figures climb. That makes it a sensible choice for a kitchen and island run, a hallway ceiling line, or a row of narrow beam spots over shelving and pictures. Where dimming is wanted, the range also includes a Triac and push switch dimmable controller, one per system.
The black casing is plain, low in profile and light in the hand, made to be tucked away rather than looked at. Leave a little air around it in service, keep dust off the shell, and save any wiping for a dry cloth with the power switched off at the mains. It is a piece of indoor hardware for dry, ventilated positions, not for anywhere it might be splashed. It carries a three year warranty. Alongside it, we stock the Magneto trackwork itself in shallow surface, deep surface and pendant, and recessed profiles, with black end caps and L-joints for corners and wall to wall turns, so a run can be planned around the shape of a room.

Frequently Asked
Will one driver power my whole track run?
It depends on the load. Add up the wattage of every head on the circuit and keep the total within the 100W the driver provides, allowing a little spare. Larger runs are usually divided so each section has its own driver.
Can the lights be dimmed through this driver?
No, this one is non-dimmable and gives a fixed output. For dimming, the range includes a Triac and push switch dimmable controller rated 12 to 48V and up to 720W, fitted one per system.
What size is the unit?
It measures 321mm long, 30mm wide and 18mm high, and weighs 0.18kg, so it is a slim bar rather than a bulky block.
What voltage does it output?
A constant 48V DC, which is what the Magneto 48V magnetic track and its heads are designed to run on. It should not be used with 12V or 24V systems.
Is it suitable for a bathroom or an outbuilding?
It is rated IP20, so it belongs in dry, ventilated indoor positions only and should be kept away from damp, splashing or condensation.
What warranty does it come with?
It carries a three year warranty from the manufacturer.
