Test conditions and notes5
- 1. Modification for charger specification may be required for different battery specification. Please contact battery vendor and MEAN WELL for details.
- 2. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
- 3. This is Mean Well's suggested range. Please consult your battery manufacturer for their suggestions about maximum charging current limitation.
- 4. The power supply is considered a component which will be installed into a final equipment. All the EMC tests are been executed by mounting the unit on a 360mm*360mm metal plate with 1mm of thickness. The final equipment must be re-confirmed that it still meets EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
- 5. 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 are the main output ratings of the Mean Well HEP-600C-48?
The HEP-600C-48 is a 600W battery charger with a 57.6V boost / 54.4V float charge voltage and 10.5A rated current. It is designed for applications that need a higher-power 3-stage charging solution with PFC.
What input range does the HEP-600C-48 support?
This model accepts a wide input range of 90 to 264VAC (277VAC operational) and 128 to 370VDC. Its universal AC input helps it fit a broad range of industrial power environments.
Is the HEP-600C-48 suitable for demanding industrial environments?
Yes. The unit is rated for operation from -40°C to +70°C (per its derating curve) and is tested to withstand 10G vibration. Those characteristics make it a strong option for demanding industrial and commercial applications.
Does this charger use active PFC and high-efficiency design?
Yes, the HEP-600C-48 includes built-in power factor correction (PF>0.98 at 115VAC, >0.95 at 230VAC) and offers a typical efficiency of 95.5%. That combination helps reduce wasted energy and supports more efficient operation in higher-power systems.
What protection features are included in the HEP-600C-48?
This model includes over voltage protection (68 to 73V) and over temperature protection. Both shut down the output voltage and recover when the unit is re-powered.
What kinds of applications is the HEP-600C-48 commonly used for?
The HEP-600C-48 is intended for industrial lead-acid battery charging applications that need 57.6V boost charging at up to 10.5A. Buyers typically consider it for higher-power systems where wide input range and rugged environmental performance matter.
How does the HEP-600C-48 differ from lower-power battery chargers?
Compared with lower-power chargers, this model provides 600W output capacity with 57.6V at 10.5A, making it better suited to larger or more demanding battery charging loads. It also stands out with 95.5% typical efficiency, PFC, and a -40°C to +70°C operating temperature range.
