Instructions
Notes for Installation
1. PS3L switching power supplies can be installed
in either (A) or (B) directions as shown below.
For PS3L-E/F/G types, the operating temperature
vs. output current characteristics vary with the
mounting direction. See the derating curves 120.
(A)(
B)
2. Mount the switching power supply on a metallic
surface that provides adequate heat dissipation.
Be sure to prevent heat build-up around power
supplies.
20 mm minimum
3. Maintain 20 mm clearance between the power
supplies.
4. Use mounting screws of a proper length so that
screws do not penetrate into the housing of the
switching power supply 6 mm or more.
5. Mounting screws cannot be fastened on a PC
board. Be sure to fasten the screws on the chas-
sis side.
Adjustment of Output Voltage
The output voltage can be adjusted within ±10% of
the rated output voltage by using the V.ADJ control
on the front. Turning the V.ADJ clockwise increases
the output voltage. When using a higher output
voltage, reduce the output current to make sure that
the output capacity is within the rating. Note that
overvoltage protection may work when increasing
the output voltage.
Overcurrent Protection
The output voltage drops automatically when an
overcurrent fl ows due to an overload or short circuit.
Normal voltage is automatically restored when the
load returns to normal conditions.
Overvoltage Protection
(PS3L-A)
The PS3L-A uses a Zener diode for overvoltage
protection. Do not apply an external overvoltage to
the output terminal.
(PS3L-B/C/D/E/F/G)
The output is turned off by overvoltage protection
when an overvoltage is applied. When the output
voltage has dropped due to an overvoltage (120% or
more), turn the input off, and after one minute, turn
the input on again.

For series operation (B), insert Schottky diodes D
as shown in the fi gure. Select a Schottky diode in
consideration of the rated current.
Notes for Operation
1. Output interruption may indicate blown fuses.
2. The internal fuse inside the power supply is for
AC input. When using with DC input, install an
external fuse for DC input.
To avoid blown fuses, select fuses in consider-
ation of the rated current of internal fuses.
Rated Current of Internal Fuses
Part Number Rated Fuse Current
PS3L-A 2A
PS3L-B
PS3L-C 3.15A
PS3L-D 2A
PS3L-E 4A
PS3L-F
PS3L-G 6.3A
3. Avoid overload and short-circuit for a long period
of time, otherwise the internal elements may be
damaged.
4. Not suitable for parallel operation.
5. DC input operation is not subject to safety
standards.
Insulation/Dielectric Test
When conducting an insulation/dielectric test,
short-circuit the input (between AC) and output
(between + and –). Do not apply or interrupt the volt-
age suddenly, otherwise the surge voltage may be
generated and the power supply may be damaged.
Safety Precautions
Do not use switching power supplies with electric equipment whose malfunc-
tion or inadvertent operation may damage the human body or life directly.
Make sure that the input voltage and output current do not exceed the ratings.
If the input voltage and output current exceed the ratings, electric shock, fi re,
or malfunction may occur.
Do not disassemble, repair, or modify the power supplies.
Do not touch the switching power supplies while input voltage is applied,
otherwise electric shock may occur.
Provide the fi nal product with protection against malfunction or damage that
may be caused by the malfunction of switching power supplies.
Operating temperatures should not exceed the ratings. Be sure to note the
derating characteristics. If the operating temperature exceeds the ratings,
electric shock, fi re, or malfunction may occur.
Blown fuses indicate that the internal circuits are damaged. Do not just
replace the fuse and reoperate, otherwise electric shock, fi re, or malfunction
may occur.
Do not use the switching power supplies to charge rechargeable
batteries.
