Maximal11DV / Maximal33DV / Maximal55DV / Maximal75DV / Maximal77DV Access Power Controllers (PTC) Installation Guide
Maintenance:
Unit should be tested at least once a year for the proper operation as follows:
FACP Supervision:
To ensure proper connection and operation of the Fire Alarm disconnect
hookup. Please follow the appropriate procedure below:
Normally Open Input:
Placing a short between terminals marked [T] and [+ INP] will trigger the
Fire Alarm Disconnect. Remove the short to reset.
Normally Closed Input:
Remove the wire from terminal marked [INP –] will trigger the Fire Alarm
Disconnect. Replace the wire to terminal marked [INP –] to reset.
FACP Signal Circuit Input:
It is necessary to trigger the Fire Alarm System.
In all of the above scenarios the green TRG LED of the ACM8CBs will
illuminate. All outputs selected for Fire Alarm Disconnect will activate
releasing locking devices.
Note:
All outputs [OUT 1 - OUT 8] must be in a normal (de-energized)
condition prior to testing. When the unit is configured for Normally Open
(Fig. 13, pg. 18)
or Normally Closed
(Fig. 15, pg. 18)
latching operation,
it is necessary to reset the Fire Alarm Disconnect by activating the
Normally Closed reset switch.
Output Voltage Test:
Under normal load conditions, the DC output voltage should be checked
for proper voltage level
(Power Supply Board Stand-by Battery
Specifications, pg. 8).
Battery Test:
Under normal load conditions check that the battery is fully charged, check
specified voltage at the battery terminals and at the board terminals marked
[+ BAT –] to ensure that there is no break in the battery connection wires.
Note:
AL400XB2V, AL600XB220, and AL1012XB220 Power Supply
Board maximum charge current is 0.7A. AL1024XB2V Power
Supply Board maximum charge current is 3.6A.
Expected battery life is 5 years; however, it is recommended to change
batteries within 4 years or less if necessary.
