Wiring and configuration instructions for the ELK-P624 selectable 6/12/24 Volt DC power supply and battery charger with fuseless overload protection.
Instructions and application notes for the ELK-P624 Power Supply and Battery Charger — a general-purpose, fuseless power supply with automatic overload protection and selectable 6, 12, or 24 Volt DC output.
The ELK-P624 is a trouble-free power supply/charger featuring automatic reset "fuseless" overload protection, which eliminates service calls to replace blown fuses. Output voltage is easily selected using mini-jumpers (JP1/JP2).
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Size | 3" x 3" (76.2mm x 76.2mm) |
| Standby battery capacity | 1.2 to 10Ah |
| Auto-reset overload protection | 2.5 Amps |
| 6V setting | Transformer input: 12Vac, 40VA; Continuous output: 1.2A** |
| 12V setting | Transformer input: 16.5Vac, 40VA; Continuous output: 1.0A** |
| 24V setting | Transformer input: 24Vac, 40VA; Continuous output: 800mA** |
** Higher output current (up to 2.5 Amps) may be drawn briefly, provided a fully charged battery is connected.
Remove the small black mini-jumper from both header pins JP1 and JP2. Connect a 12Vac, 40VA transformer to the AC TRANSFORMER terminals, and connect a 6V battery to the red (+) and black (−) battery wires. The mini-jumper can be stored on a single header pin for later use. Maximum continuous current: 1.2A.
Place the mini-jumper on header pin JP1 only (JP2 must be vacant). Connect a 16.5Vac, 40VA transformer to the AC TRANSFORMER terminals, and connect a 12V battery to the red (+) and black (−) battery wires. Maximum continuous current: 1.0A.
Place the mini-jumper on header pin JP2. Connect a 24Vac, 40VA transformer to the AC TRANSFORMER terminals, and connect a 24V battery to the red (+) and black (−) battery wires. Maximum continuous current: 800mA.
Caution: The heatsink may be hot during normal operation.
| AC (Green) | DC (Red) | Indication |
|---|---|---|
| ON | ON | Normal — AC input on, DC output on. |
| OFF | ON | AC input off, DC output running from battery only. Transformer defective/unplugged, or outlet is off. Battery will eventually discharge. |
| ON | OFF | AC input on, DC output off. The auto-reset overload protector is likely open due to an overload/short circuit — try reducing device load. |
| OFF | OFF | AC input off, DC output off. |
