4. Safety Information

To prevent damage to the power supply or connected devices, and to ensure user safety, observe the following precautions:

  • Voltage Compatibility: Ensure your device requires 24V DC. Do not use with AC 24V or voltages significantly lower/higher than 24V DC.
  • Current Compatibility: The connected device's current draw must be equal to or less than 3A. Exceeding 3A can damage the power supply.
  • Connector Compatibility: Verify your device's power input port has an outer diameter of 5.5mm and an inner core diameter of 2.1mm or 2.5mm. The inner core polarity must be "+" and the exterior polarity "-".
  • Load Capacity: For optimal lifespan and safety, the maximum power usage should not exceed 80% of the adapter's full load. For this 72W power supply, it is recommended to power devices less than 57W.
  • Protection Features: The adapter includes built-in protections against over voltage, over current, short circuits, and over temperature.
  • Do not expose the adapter to water, moisture, or extreme temperatures.
  • Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the adapter.

5. Setup

Follow these steps to set up your power supply adapter:

  1. Connect AC Power Cord: Plug the included AC power cord into the adapter's AC input port.
  2. Connect to Wall Outlet: Insert the AC power cord's plug into a standard 100V-240V AC wall outlet.
  3. Connect to Device: Plug the DC output barrel connector (5.5mm x 2.1mm or 5.5mm x 2.5mm) into your compatible electronic device's power input port. Ensure the connection is secure.
  4. Optional DC Female Connector: If your device requires bare wire connection, use the included DC female connector. Strip the wires from your device, insert them into the screw terminals of the DC female connector, and tighten the screws. Then, plug the DC female connector into the adapter's DC output barrel.
