https://www.elconchargers.com/frequentlyasked_questions.htmlI have a new Elcon PFC2500 Charger. I am struggling to set it up. I assumed ignorantly that it was just a case of plugging it in. Does anyone have a wiring diagram? I am obviously doing something really stupid.
There is no fuse on the output of the charger. There is a fuse on the AC input of the charger.Just a quick question on this i am planning to use the charger off board connecting the HV to the battery pack via an anderson and a fuse in the car, would it be sensible to have a second fuse on the output of the charger in case i get a short in the lead or the anderson connector or is there a fuse on the output stage within the elcon charger ??
Oh Yeah, I forgot the output fuse because its mounted vertically and covered in that heat shrink. I should have looked at the schematic.Except for that fuse on the output soldered to the board?
both fuses, input and output, are soldered onto the board.
The output current is determined partially by the voltage of the output not the input.I have a new elcon (well a year or so now as we have been so held up with our build ) it seems to have a fuse in the case its on the same side the AC enters so im guessing its an AC fuse also realised today when setting it up its a 1.5kw charger so only 8 amps for me so gonna take a while to charge up my batteries around 20 hours I guess i will put a panel fuse 10 amps on the DC out supply before the contactor.
The output current is determined partially by the voltage of the output not the input.
It should be written on the charger for example TCCH-240-5
240 V DC at 5 A.
TCCH-144-8 144V 8A
