Campbell Scientific PS150/CH150 12 V Charging Regulators - Manual (Page 14)

PS150/CH150 12 V Charging Regulators
3.1.2 AC/DC Power
Double check the input voltages coming in to the charger/regulator with a volt
meter.
AC Input Voltage: 14 to 24 VAC RMS
DC Input Voltage: 15 to 40 VDC
Exceeding the voltages listed above will damage the
power supply.
Disconnect the primary side of the AC/DC power before connecting wires to
the PS150.
Connect the secondary power supply leads to the two terminal blocks marked
“CHG”. There is no polarity on the “CHG” terminal blocks, so it does not
matter which wire goes to which “CHG” terminal block, but make sure there is
only ONE wire per block. See FIGURE 3-5.

3.2 Plug In the Battery
The battery used with the PS150 is shipped inside of the PS150 case if the
power supply is NOT installed inside an enclosure. If the PS150 is mounted
inside an enclosure then the battery will be located separately packed in one of
the packing boxes. This is done to minimize any damage that could occur if
the power supply should get loose from its mounts inside the enclosure during
shipment. The battery will NOT be plugged into the PS150. This is done to
minimize discharging the battery.
To remove the lid from the PS150, pull up on the PS150 lid latch and slide the
lid off as shown in FIGURE 3-6 and FIGURE 3-7.
