Test conditions and notes7
  1. 1. Modification for charger specification may be required for different battery specification. Please contact battery vendor and MEAN WELL for details.
  2. 2. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  3. 3. This is MeanWell's suggested range, please consult your battery manufacturer for their suggestions about maximum charging current limitation.
  4. 4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the derating curve for more details.
  5. 5. Constant current operation region is within 50~100% rated output voltage.
  6. 6. The power supply is considered as an independent unit, but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that whole system complies with the EMC directives. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )
  7. 7. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).

FAQ

What is the output rating of the Mean Well GC220A48-AD1?

The GC220A48-AD1 is rated for 217.6W output. It provides 54.4V DC at 4A, which makes it suitable for battery charging applications that match those electrical requirements. This model is part of Mean Well's GC220 battery charger series.

What kind of applications is the GC220A48-AD1 designed for?

This model is intended for charging lead-acid (flooded, Gel and AGM) and Li-ion batteries in commercial and industrial settings, with a recommended capacity of 20 to 65Ah. Its 54.4V, 4A output fits battery-charging applications that require that specific charging profile. Buyers typically consider it when they need a compact enclosed charger from a recognized industrial power brand.

What input range does the Mean Well GC220A48-AD1 support?

The GC220A48-AD1 accepts a universal AC input range of 90 to 264VAC, and it also supports 127 to 370VDC input. That wide range helps simplify purchasing for organizations operating across different mains standards. It also includes built-in active PFC.

Can this charger be used in demanding temperature conditions?

The specified operating temperature range is -30°C to +60°C, subject to the manufacturer's derating curve. That makes it a practical option for buyers evaluating chargers for harsher indoor or light industrial environments. As with any power product, performance expectations should stay within the published operating limits.

What protection and safety features does the GC220A48-AD1 include?

This model includes protection for short circuit, overload, over voltage, and over temperature. The overload protection operates at 90 to 110% of rated output power with constant current limiting and auto-recovery, while over-voltage protection shuts down output and recovers after re-powering. It is also approved to TUV BS EN/EN62368-1 and UL1012 for the GC220Axx-AD1 models.

How efficient is the Mean Well GC220A48-AD1 compared with lower-efficiency chargers?

The GC220A48-AD1 has a typical efficiency of 93%. Higher efficiency generally helps reduce wasted energy and heat compared with less efficient alternatives. It also has no-load power consumption below 1W.
