APPLICATION NOTES 

Battery 

Charging 

When using the DCS Series (3kW) power supply to charge a battery, take the following 
precautions to prevent damage to the supply and/or the battery 

in case the overvoltage 

protection (OVP) circuit is activated

 

Select a diode rated to handle the required charging current and voltage. Use the 
following table as a reference. 

Peak Charging Current 

Maximum Voltage  Diode Type 

250-350A

 

40V

 

Two (2) parallel MBR30045CT

 

60-249A

 

40V

 

One (1) MBR30045CT

 

25-59A

 

100V

 

One (1) MUR7015

 

10-24A

 

300V

 

One (1) MUR3040PT

 

5-9A

 

500V

 

One (1) MUR1560

 

<5A

 

600V

 

One (1) MUR758 

 

 

Connect the diode in series with either supply output to prevent the battery from 
discharging through the internal OVP crowbar transistor.  The diode must be mounted 
on a suitably-rated heatsink to prevent its case temperature from exceeding the 
manufacturer's maximum limits.
