PFE300, 500 Instruction Manual
Be sure to read this instruction manual thoroughly before using
this product. Pay attention to all cautions and warnings before
using this product. Incorrect usage could lead to an electrical
shock, damage to the unit or a re hazard.
WARNING
Do not make unauthorized changes to power supply unit, oth-
erwise you may have electric shock and void your warranty.
Do not touch this unit and the internal components in opera-
tion or shortly after shut down. They may have high voltage
or high temperature and as the unit dissipates its heat so the
surface of the unit is hot. You may receive electric shock or
burn.
When the unit is operating, keep your hands and face away
from it; you may be injured by an accident
Do not use unit under unusual condition such as emission of
smoke or abnormal smell and sound etc. It might cause re
and electric shock. In such case, please contact us; do not
repair by yourself, as it is dangerous for the user.
Do not drop or insert anything into unit. It might cause failure
and re.
Do not operate these units under condensation condition. It
may cause re and electric shock.
CAUTION
As a component part, compliance with the standard will be
based upon installation in the nal application. This product
must be installed in a restricted access location, accessible
to authorized competent personnel only. These AC to DC
converters have reinforced insulation between the input and
the output. The outputs of these products are energy haz-
ards. All models with an output greater than 28V model are
considered to be non-SELV. As such, the instructions for use
must refer to these energy hazardous outputs and Non-SELV
outputs in that the outputs must not be accessible to the
operator. The installer must also provide protection against
inadvertent contact by a service engineer.
The equipment has been evaluated for use in a Pollution De-
gree 2 environment.
This power supply is primarily designed and manufactured to
be used and enclosed in other equipment.
Conrm connections to input/output terminals and signal ter-
minals are correct as indicated in the instruction manual.
Attach an HBC external fuse to each module to ensure safety
operation and compliance to each safety standard approval.
The recommended input fuse rating within the instructions is
as follows: -15AHBC, 250V fast acting fuse. The breaking
capacity and voltage rating of this fuse may be subject to the
end use application.
Input voltage, output current, output power, ambient tempera-
ture and ambient humidity should be used within specica-
tions, otherwise the unit will be damaged.
For application equipment, which requires very high reliability
(nuclear related equipment, traffic control equipment, medi-
cal equipment, etc.), please provide fail safety function in the
equipment.
Do not use the product in environment with strong electro-
magnetic eld, corrosive gas and conductive substance.
Do not operate and store this unit at an environment where
condensation occurs. In such case, waterproof treatment is
necessary
Never operate the unit under over current or shorted condi-
tions for 30 seconds or more and out of Input Voltage Range
as specication. Insulation failure, smoking, burning or other
damage may occur to the unit.
The output voltage of this power supply unit is considered
to be a hazardous energy level. (The voltage is 2V or more
and the electric power is 240VA or more.) Prevention from
direct contact with output terminal is highly necessary. While
installing or servicing this power supply unit, avoid dropping
tools by mistake or direct contact with output terminal. This
might cause an electric shock. While repairing this power
supply unit, the AC input power must be switched o󱐯 and the
input and output voltage should be level.
To maintain the SELV output for outputs less than 28VDC,
under fault conditions, the output must be connected to earth
in the nal application.
The application circuits and their parameter are for reference
only. Be sure to verify effectiveness of application circuits
and their parameters before nalizing circuit design.
Do not inject abnormal voltage to output terminal and signal
terminal from the outside. The injection of reverse voltage or
over voltage exceeding nominal output voltage to output ter-
minals might cause damage to internal components.
This information in this document is subject to change with-
out prior notice. For actual design-in, please refer to the lat-
est publications of data sheet, etc., for the most up-to-date
date specications of the unit.
No part of this document may be copied or reproduced in any
form without prior written consent of Densei-Lambda.
Note : CE MARKING
CE Marking, when applied to a product covered by this hand-
book, indicates compliance with the low voltage directive
(73/23/EEC) as modied by the CE Marking Directive (93/68/
EEC) which complies with EN60950.

RemoteSensing(+S,-STerminals)
This module has remote sensing terminals to compensate
for voltage line drop from the output terminals to the output
load. When remote sensing is not required (local sensing)

sation voltage range must be such that the output voltage
is within the output voltage adjustment range and that the
voltage between -V and -S must be within 2V.
Consider power loss due to line drop and use power mod-
ule within the maximum allowable output power. Reduce

󱫙WithstandVoltage
This module is designed to withstand applied voltage
2.5kVAC between input and baseplate, 3kVAC between
input and output for a duration of 1 minute. When doing
this test during incoming inspection, set the current limit of
test equipment to 20mA.
This module is designed to withstand applied voltage
1.5kVDC between output and baseplate for 1 minute.
When doing this test during incoming inspection, be sure
to apply DC voltage only. Avoid applying AC voltage dur-
ing this test because this will damage the module.
Refrain from injecting high test voltage suddenly. Be sure
to gradually increase the applied withstand voltage during
testing and gradually reduce the voltage after the test.
Especially, when using timer switch of the test equipment,
impulse voltage which is higher than the applied set volt-
age, is generated when the timer switch is cut o󱐯. This
causes damage to the power module. Connect each termi-
nal according to the circuit diagram shown below.
For basic connection shown in Fig.1-1, do the same termi-
nal connections.

The output voltage of this power supply unit is considered to
be a hazardous energy level. (The voltage is 2V or more and
the electric power is 240VA or more.) Prevention from direct
contact with output terminal is highly necessary. While install-
ing or servicing this power supply unit, avoid dropping tools
by mistake or direct contact with output terminal. This might
cause an electric shock. While repairing this power supply
unit, the AC input power must be switched o󱐯 and the input
and output voltage should be level.
To maintain the SELV output for outputs less than 28VDC,
under fault conditions, the output must be connected to earth
in the nal application.
The application circuits and their parameter are for reference
only. Be sure to verify effectiveness of application circuits
and their parameters before nalizing circuit design.
Do not inject abnormal voltage to output terminal and signal
terminal from the outside. The injection of reverse voltage or
over voltage exceeding nominal output voltage to output ter-
minals might cause damage to internal components.

External Input Fuse
This power module has no internal fuse. Use external fuse
to acquire each safety standard and to further improve
safety. Further, Fast-Blow type fuse must be used per one
module. Also, in-rush surge current ows during line throw-
in. Be sure to check I2t rating of external switch and exter-
nal fuse.
Recommended External Fuse:15A
Select fuse based on rated voltage, rated current and
surge current capability.

3. Take note of the maximum allowable ripple current of
the electrolytic capacitor used. Especially, for sudden
load current changes, verify actual ripple current and
make sure that allowable maximum ripple current is
not be exceeded.
Selection Method of External Bulk Capacitor for
Boost Voltage
Boost voltage bulk capacitor is determined by boost volt-
age ripple voltage, ripple current and hold-up time.
Select capacitor value such that boost voltage ripple volt-
age does not exceed 15Vp-p.
Note) When ambient temperature is −20 deg C or less, Boost
voltage might increase due to ESR characteristics.
Therefore, verify above characteristics by actual evalua-
tion.
For output hold-up time, refer to separate document
"PFE700 Series Evaluation Data" and use appropriate ca-
pacitor up to 1,200uF maximum. (It is recommended that
verication should be done through actual evaluation).
For allowable ripple current value, refer to Fig.1-2 and se-
lect a capacitor with higher ripple current rating.

2MaximumRippleandNoise
This value is measured according to the description below
in accordance with JEITA-9131A (Section 7.12 and Sec-
tion 7.13).
In the basic connection shown in Fig.1-1, additional
connection shown in Fig.2-1 is done for measurement.
Capacitor (ceramic capacitor 2.2μF and electrolytic
capacitor: 220μF) must be connected within 50mm from
the output terminals. Then, connect coaxial cable with
JEITA attachment across the ceramic capacitor electrodes.

󱫘WithstandVoltage
This module is designed to withstand applied voltage
2.5kVAC between input and baseplate, 3kVAC between
input and output for a duration of 1 minute. When doing
this test during incoming inspection, set the current limit of
test equipment to 20mA.
This module is designed to withstand applied voltage
1.5kVDC between output and baseplate for 1 minute.
When doing this test during incoming inspection, be sure
to apply DC voltage only. Avoid applying AC voltage dur-
ing this test because this will damage the module.
Refrain from injecting high test voltage suddenly. Be sure
to gradually increase the applied withstand voltage during
testing and gradually reduce the voltage after the test.
Especially, when using timer switch of the test equipment,
impulse voltage which is higher than the applied set volt-
age, is generated when the timer switch is cut off. This
causes damage to the power module. Connect each termi-
nal according to the circuit diagram shown below.
For basic connection shown in Fig.1-1, do the same termi-
nal connections.
