Connecting the Charger to the Wall
Looking at the front of a pre-2011 PFC-50 the charger you will see that the top cable
is labeled AC and it is the incoming power for the charger. Looking at the rear of a
PFC-75 or other late model charger you will see 3 Anderson Power Pole connectors
beneath the two DC output connectors. A great feature of the Manzanita Micro PFC
line of chargers is that they are capable of operating easily when powered from
110,120, 208, 220, 230 or 240 volts of single phase AC power.
NOTE: PFC-50, 50B, and 75 chargers must be modified to run off of DC. For more
information on running your charger from a DC input power source see the “Running
Your PFC Charger on DC instead of AC” section later in this manual.
Ohm’s law states that Volts x Amps = Watts of power and there are a certain
number of “Watt Hours” stored in your battery pack and available to power your
electric vehicle. Based on the VxA=Watts equation it is easy to see that more volts
or amps (or both) equates to more total watts which means more electrical power
moving thus faster charging.
Your Manzanita Micro PFC charger can be powered by any input voltage within the
100-240V range and there is no voltage adjustment or switches to move when
