  • Page 3: Product Description

    0.Product Description RPB-1600 is MEAN WELL's new generation intelligent battery charger with high power density. Different battery brands and types (lead acid batteries, such as flooded, Gel, AGM, and so on, or lithium-ion batteries, such as lithium iron, lithium manganese, and so on) may require different charging curves and protection mechanisms for batteries.

  • Page 4: Derating Curve

    Installation Procedure: Please make sure the charger is OFF before connecting the battery to the output terminal. Choose a cable with suitable wire gauge according to the charging current to connect between the charger and the battery. Battery polarity must be connected correctly:Terminal(+) to Battery(+); Terminal(-) to Battery(-), and take notice that the positive and negative ends are not shorted.

Negative output voltage signal. -V (Signal) cannot be connected directly to the load. Serial clock used in the PMBus interface. Serial clock used in the PMBus interface. Pin No.

  • Page 6: Charge Curve

    Explanation for 3 stage charge curve (0) Initial stage (battery analysis)： Check battery voltage level to see whether there is a battery connected. (1) Stage 1 (constant current)： A constant current is provided so that the battery can be quickly charged to 2.4V per cell.

    8.PMBus Communication Interface RPB-1600 is compliant with PMBus Rev.1.1, the maximum communication speed is 100KHz and it has the capability of identifying up to 8 addressed units. ◎ PMBus communication interface is able to provide the current operating status and information follow : 1.
  • Page 8 Charging Curve When it is opted for charging curve, D0 set to 0, charging curve function is enabled with additional PMBus commands. There are 4 built-in charging curves, “default” curve, one pre-defined curve for “gel battery”, one pre-defined curve for “flooded battery” and one pre-defined curve for “AGM battery”. Each curve can be selected by Command B4h CURVE_CONFIG.
  • Page 9 ◎ PMBus commands: The command list of the RBP-1600 is shown in Table 8-2. It is compliant with the standard protocol of PMBus Rev. 1.1.
