Description

Core Product Summary

The Pioneer Magnetics PM3326B-6-1-2-E is a 1000 W AC-to-DC switching power supply from the PM33xx PowerFactor series, the manufacturer’s power-factor-corrected front-end line. The “-6” option in the model number designates the wide AC input range of 90 to 264 VAC, allowing the unit to operate from single-phase or three-phase supply lines at 50/60 Hz without hardware changes between regions.

As a PFC front end, it converts the AC line into regulated, isolated DC output for downstream loads, with power-factor correction on the input stage. The unit uses internal forced air cooling and delivers continuous full output power over an ambient operating range of 0 °C to +50 °C. Overvoltage protection on this series latches a shutdown, which clears after the input line is removed for approximately 30 seconds and reapplied.

System Compatibility & Integration Requirements

Item / Dependency Verified Requirement Practical Note
AC input supply 90–264 VAC, 50/60 Hz, single-phase or three-phase (option -6) Circuit protection and input wiring must be rated for the actual line used
Output configuration Defined by the full model-number suffix Confirm output voltage/current against the unit nameplate before ordering
Installation environment 0 °C to +50 °C ambient for full 1000 W output Derisk cabinet cooling by including the unit’s heat dissipation in the enclosure thermal budget
Fault recovery OVP latches until input line is removed ~30 s and reapplied Plan maintenance access or a remote input disconnect if automatic recovery is expected
Output adjustment ±10% trim of nominal output voltage Useful for load compensation; do not use trim to compensate for an incorrect output configuration

 

Detailed Product Overview

The PM3326B-6-1-2-E belongs to the PM33xx PowerFactor series, which Pioneer Magnetics defines as its AC-to-DC converter line with power-factor-corrected input stages. Within the PM33xx family, the PM3326 occupies the 1000 W maximum-power class, which sets the ceiling on what the converter can deliver to the load.

The “-6” option is the most integration-relevant element of the model number: it specifies the wide input range of 90 to 264 VAC. In practical terms, this means the same hardware can be wired to a nominal 120 VAC or 230 VAC supply line, in single-phase or three-phase configurations, which simplifies spares stocking for plants operating across different supply standards. The input stage is power-factor corrected, reducing harmonic current drawn from the line — a requirement in many facility power-quality specifications.

Engineers specifying this unit should verify the exact DC output voltage and current of their specific configuration from the unit’s nameplate or the manufacturer’s model-number configuration record before purchase, because the PM33xx series is built in multiple output-voltage configurations and the suffix codes define the electrical build. The wide-input option does not vary between builds, but the output side does.

Protection behavior matters for system design. On this series, the overvoltage protection circuit shuts the unit down in a latched condition at approximately 125% of nominal output voltage; the latch does not clear until AC input is removed for about 30 seconds and then reapplied. This behavior suits unattended installations where a fault condition should not allow automatic oscillation between trip and restart, but it means a remote-reset capability may need to be designed into the distribution path if rapid recovery is required.

Thermal design is the other main constraint. The unit provides full rated power from 0 °C to +50 °C ambient with internal forced air cooling, so the enclosure must admit airflow and the heat load of both logic and downstream loads should be included in cabinet cooling calculations.

Dimensions, Mounting & Connection Notes

  • The PM33xx front-end units in this power class are housed in Pioneer Magnetics’ traditional 5 × 5 inch front-end package format, with 1000 W and 1200 W models also offered in 2U package variants depending on the specific build.
  • Cooling is internal forced air; the mounting location must permit free airflow into and out of the unit.
  • Input connection is to the AC line (90–264 VAC); overvoltage shutdown recovery requires removing AC input for approximately 30 seconds.
  • Safety certifications for the series are referenced to UL1950, CSA 22.2 No. 950, and TÜV to EN60950.

 

FAQ

What is the Pioneer Magnetics PM3326B-6-1-2-E?
It is a 1000 W AC-to-DC switching power supply from Pioneer Magnetics’ PM33xx PowerFactor series, with a power-factor-corrected, wide-range AC input stage.

What does the “-6” in the model number mean?
It designates the wide AC input range option of 90 to 264 VAC, usable on single-phase or three-phase, 50/60 Hz supply lines.

How much power can it deliver, and over what temperature range?
The PM3326 is rated in the 1000 W maximum-power class of the PM33xx series, and delivers full output power over an ambient range of 0 °C to +50 °C with internal forced air cooling.

What safety standards does the series comply with?
The PM33xx front-end series is documented to UL1950, CSA 22.2 No. 950, and TÜV to EN60950.

How does the overvoltage protection behave?
OVP shuts the unit down in a latched state at approximately 125% ±5% of nominal output voltage; the latch clears only after AC input is removed for about 30 seconds and reapplied.

Can the output voltage be adjusted?
Yes, the series provides an output adjustment range of ±10% of nominal, with a voltage stability of ±0.1% over a 24-hour period after warm-up.
