MaxFit Kits Fused Installation Guide
Overview:
Altronix fused Access Power Controller kits distribute and switch power to access control systems and accessories. They convert a 120VAC
60Hz input into eight (8) or sixteen (16) independently controlled 12VDC or 24VDC fuse protected outputs. These Fail-Safe/Fail-Secure power
outputs may be converted to dry form “C” contacts. Relays are activated by an open collector sink or normally open (NO) dry trigger input from
an Access Control System, Keypad, Push Button, REX PIR, etc. Units will route power to a variety of access control hardware devices including:
Mag Locks, Electric Strikes, Magnetic Door Holders, etc. The FACP Interface enables Emergency Egress, Alarm Monitoring, or may be used
to trigger other auxiliary devices. The fire alarm disconnect feature is individually selectable for any or all of the eight (8) Fail-Safe/Fail-Secure
power outputs. Additional fuse protected outputs provide power for connected devices.

Installation Instructions:
Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/ANSI, and with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction.
Product is intended for indoor use only.
1. Mount unit in desired location. Mark and predrill holes in the wall to line up with the top three keyholes in the enclosure. Install
three upper fasteners and screws in the wall with the screw heads protruding. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the three
upper screws, level and secure. Mark the position of the lower three holes. Remove the enclosure. Drill the lower holes and install
the three fasteners. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the three upper screws. Install the three lower screws and make sure to
tighten all screws
(Enclosure Dimensions, pg. 8)
.
2. Connect unswitched AC power (120VAC 60Hz) to terminals marked [L, N]
(Fig. 2-5, pg. 3-6)
. Use 14 AWG or larger for all power
connections. Secure green wire lead to earth ground.
Keep power-limited wiring separate from non power-limited wiring.
Minimum 0.25” spacing must be provided
(Fig. 2-5, pg. 3-6
).
CAUTION: Do not touch exposed metal parts. Shut branch circuit power before installing or servicing equipment.
There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer installation and servicing to qualified service personnel.
3. Mount included UL Listed tamper switch (Altronix Model TS112 or equivalent) in
desired location, opposite hinge. Slide the tamper switch bracket onto the edge of the
enclosure approximately 2” from the right side
(Fig. 1, pg. 2)
.
Connect tamper switch wiring to the Access Control Panel input or the appropriate
UL Listed reporting device. To activate alarm signal open the door of the enclosure.
4. Refer to the
eFlow Power Supply/Charger Installation Guide
for eFlow104NB
and corresponding
Sub-Assembly Installation Guides
for
ACM8, ACMS8, PDS8, VR6, PD8UL and PD16W for further installation instructions.
