    GENERAL INFORMATION WF-8900-AD-MBA Series Main Board Assembly Safety Features AUTOMATIC COOLING FAN The cooling fan in the WF-8900-AD Series Power Center is incremental and is controlled by the current drawn out of the converter to the applied load. The on-board microprocessor increases fan speed as the total load increases and decreases fan speed as the load decreases.
  • Page 4: Electronic Current Limiting

    The WF-8900-AD-MBA Series Main Board Assembly will charge the 12-volt House battery if installed. A battery DOES NOT have to be installed for WF-8900-AD-MBA Series Main Board Assembly to operate. When a battery is installed, two reverse polarity fuses protect the MBA circuitry.

    “detected” and is then automatically set for the type of battery being used. For standard Lead Acid and AGM batteries, WFCO power converters still use the Three-Stage Smart Charging to effectively maximize battery life by monitoring through the different phases of the charge cycle.
  • Page 6 ABSORPTION MODE The converter normally provides a constant target output voltage of 13.6 volts (nominal) to power ll the branch circuits. However, it is current limited, and if the output (load) current reaches its maximum, the output voltage will drop as necessary to hold the converter’s maxi-mum output current level (the amperage rating) without exceeding it.
  • Page 7: Two Stage Smart Charging

    LITHIUM TWO-STAGE SMART CHARGING The two-stage “smart” charger continuously measures the battery voltage output and regulates the amount of charge using two modes of operation: Bulk and Absorption mode. 2-STAGE CONVERTER VOLTAGE OUTPUT MODES Understanding output voltages of a two-stage converter. Figure 3 BULK MODE This mode is designed with two purposes in mind.

    Also check for loose wiring connections. DC REVERSE POLARITY (FUSES) If there is no DC output coming from the WF-8900-AD-MBA Series Main Board Assembly con- verter section, first check the reverse polarity fuses on the fuse board. Then, visually inspect the fuses for any breaks in the fuse element.

    This alarm will continue to sound until the AC wires are connected correctly. Figure 4 Should it be determined that the WF-8900-AD-MBA Series Main Board Assembly needs to be replaced, removal of the Main Board Assembly Is a simple process. REPLACING THE CONVERTER SECTION (MBA) Make sure no AC power is coming into the RV from either the Shore Power cord or an on-board generator.
