Frequently Asked Questions
Can the PSC-160A-C power a higher-load 13.8V battery-backed automation cabinet?
Yes, it is a 13.8V constant-voltage model with UPS function and a 160W, 7.6A output rating, so it fits higher-load battery-backed automation cabinets designed around that DC level. It offers more output capacity than the smaller 13.8V members of the PSC family.
Is the PSC-160A-C suitable for 13.8V communications or dispatch equipment with standby power?
It can be suitable for communications or dispatch equipment that uses a 13.8V DC bus and stays within 7.6A and 160W. The UPS function is relevant where the system is intended to maintain operation from a battery-backed supply.
Would the PSC-160A-C be appropriate for embedded controllers that need more than 4.75A at 13.8V?
Yes, because this model is rated for 7.6A at 13.8V, which is above the 4.75A rating of the 100.05W 13.8V models in the same series. It is a better fit when the load is still within 160W but exceeds the smaller units' current capacity.
Can the PSC-160A-C be used in equipment sold across multiple AC power regions?
Yes, the input range is 90-264VAC, which supports systems intended for varied AC mains environments. The DC output remains a constant 13.8V with up to 7.6A available.
What separates the PSC-160A-C from the rest of the PSC charger family?
Among the 13.8V siblings, PSC-35A and PSC-35A-C are 35.88W and 1.7A, PSC-60A and PSC-60A-C are 59.34W and 2.8A, PSC-100A and PSC-100A-C are 100.05W and 4.75A, and PSC-160A and PSC-160A-C are 160W and 7.6A. The 27.6V branch includes PSC-35B and PSC-35B-C at 35.88W and 0.85A, PSC-60B and PSC-60B-C at 59.34W and 1.4A, PSC-100B and PSC-100B-C at 100.74W and 2.4A, and PSC-160B and PSC-160B-C at 160W and 3.8A.
Is the PSC-160A-C rated for outdoor conditions?
The temperature specification is -20°C to +70°C, so it is rated for a wide operating range. The provided specs do not include an IP rating, so outdoor suitability is not confirmed by the product data shown here.
