NOTE	Modification for charger specification may be required for different battery specification. Please contact battery vendor and MEAN WELL for details. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25 of ambient temperature. ℃ This is MeanWell suggested range, please consult your battery manufacturer for their suggestions about maximum charging current limitation. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details. Constant current operation region is within 50~100% rated output voltage. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. The final equipment must be re-confirmed that it still meets EMC directives. as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf ) The ambient temperature derating of 3.5 /1000m with fanless models and of 5 /1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m (6500ft). ※ Product Liability Disclaimer For detailed information, please refer to ： https://www.meanwell.com/serviceDisclaimer.aspx
