Usage Instructions

How to Use the Component in a Circuit

  1. Input Connection:

    • Ensure the input voltage selector switch is set to the correct position (110V or 220V) based on your AC mains supply.
    • Connect the live (L), neutral (N), and ground (GND) wires to the input terminals securely.
  2. Output Connection:

    • Connect the V+ and V- terminals to your load or circuit. Use appropriate gauge wires to handle the high current (25A max).
  3. Voltage Adjustment:

    • If necessary, use a small screwdriver to adjust the voltage potentiometer to fine-tune the output voltage.
  4. Power On:

    • After verifying all connections, power on the unit by supplying AC input. The built-in fan will activate to maintain optimal operating temperature.

Important Considerations and Best Practices

  • Load Requirements: Ensure the connected load does not exceed the maximum power rating of 600W or the current limit of 25A.
  • Ventilation: Install the power supply in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. Do not block the fan or ventilation holes.
  • Safety: Always disconnect the power supply from the AC mains before making any wiring changes.
  • Wire Gauge: Use wires rated for at least 25A for the output connections to avoid overheating or voltage drops.
  • Fusing: Consider adding an external fuse or circuit breaker on the input side for additional protection.

Example: Connecting to an Arduino UNO

The NUOFUWEI S-24-600 can be used to power an Arduino UNO and other peripherals. Below is an example of how to connect the power supply to an Arduino UNO:

  1. Set the output voltage to 24V using the adjustment knob.
  2. Use a DC-DC step-down converter to reduce the 24V output to 5V for the Arduino UNO.
  3. Connect the step-down converter's input to the V+ and V- terminals of the power supply.
  4. Connect the step-down converter's 5V output to the Arduino UNO's 5V pin and GND.

Sample Arduino Code

// Example code to blink an LED connected to pin 13 of the Arduino UNO
// Ensure the Arduino is powered via the step-down converter (5V input).

void setup() {
  pinMode(13, OUTPUT); // Set pin 13 as an output
}

void loop() {
  digitalWrite(13, HIGH); // Turn the LED on
  delay(1000);            // Wait for 1 second
  digitalWrite(13, LOW);  // Turn the LED off
  delay(1000);            // Wait for 1 second
}

Troubleshooting and FAQs

Common Issues and Solutions

  1. No Output Voltage:

    • Verify that the input voltage selector switch is set correctly (110V or 220V).
    • Check the AC input connections (L, N, and GND) for proper wiring.
    • Ensure the load is connected securely to the output terminals.
  2. Overheating:

    • Ensure the power supply is installed in a well-ventilated area.
    • Check for obstructions blocking the cooling fan or ventilation holes.
    • Reduce the load if it exceeds the maximum power rating.
  3. Voltage Fluctuations:

    • Use the voltage adjustment knob to stabilize the output voltage.
    • Verify that the input AC voltage is stable and within the specified range.
  4. Fan Not Working:

    • The fan operates based on temperature. If the unit is not hot, the fan may not activate.
    • If the fan fails to operate under load, contact the manufacturer for support.
