Assembly Procedure:
Notes On Operation:

1.Make sure the charger is shut off and choosing suitable wires to connect the charger
2.Select the correct input voltage range between 115VAC and 230VAC. The selecting

1.The charger is only suitable for "lead-acid" batteries.
2.The charger should be assembled in the place with good ventilation and low moisture.
3.Wires connecting between the charger and batteries should be as short as possible
4.Make sure the charging voltage and charging current are suitable for the batteries
5.If the batteries need to connect in series for charging, old batteries are not suggested
6.Please turn off the charger before connecting or disconnecting the wires.
7.The charger has a 2-year worldwide warranty, however, damages from misusing the
At the beginning stage of operation, the charger provides the largest current with
14.4Vdc of output voltage (for 12V batteries) to charge batteries. The LED indicator will
lighten in red and the built-in fan will spin to dissipate the heat (360W only). After a
period of time (probably a couple of hours, based on the capacity of batteries), the
charging current will decrease gradually. After reaching 10% of its maximum value, the
charger will go into "floating-charge" stage. The fan will stop spinning, charging voltage
will decrease to 13.6Vdc, and the LED indicator will turn to green. The relationship
between charging current and charging voltage for each operation stage are shown in
the curves below:

charger output (+) should be connected to the (+) terminal of batteries and charger
output (-) should be connected to the (-) terminal.
In no times should the (+) and (-) be short together or the charger and batteries will
be damaged.

NOTE: Output voltage of the charger (V ) can be adjusted through SVR1 withoutFLT
connecting the batteries and this adjustment will change the value of Vboost
at the same time. For example, if originally V is 13.6V and V is 14.4V, afterFLT boost
adjusting V to 13.2V under no-load condition, V will also reduce to 14V.FLT boost
So, please consult the manufacturer of batteries about the suitable charging
voltage before make any adjustment.
Charging Current And Ambient Temperature
1.The charging current of PB-300 will reduce when the ambient temperature goes up.

Suggested Battery Capacity:
1.It will not have any problem if the capacity of batteries larger than the suggested value.
2.If you have any question about the suitable charging current for the batteries, please
It just takes more time to make the batteries fully charged!
refer to the technical data provided by the battery manufacturers or consult the vendor
of the batteries.
2.Below the ambient temperature of 40 , PB-360 can provide the maximum charging
current to the batteries. If the ambient temperature is higher than 40 , the output
current of PB-360 will decrease automatically. Please refer to the derating curve
shown as below:
Please choose wires with suitable diameter of its cross section based on the current
rating. Please refer to the following table for the information of some frequently used
wires. Using red wires to connect the (+) terminals and black ones for (-) terminals is
highly recommended. (Black wires for grounding is a usual practice in electrical
applications.)

Notes On Failure Elimination
If you still cannot eliminate the failure situation, please consult
MEAN WELL or any of our distributors
Caution : (1)Temperature of the case will be high during the charging operation.
(2)If the AC input terminal does not connect to F.G. or the ground, then the case
should be grounded or the leakage current may harm the users while touching
the case.
a holding rack for extra support. Reserved space for built in is at least
(325*145*55) L*W*H
(3)The charger should be fixed firmly at its operation place or be mounted on
(4)During charging, the battery must be placed in a well ventilated area.
WARNING : Explosive gases. prevent flames and sparks, Provide adequate ventilation
during charging.
Disconnect the supply before making or breaking the connections to the
battery.
Against recharging non-rechargeable batteries.
