DC Power Entry Modules (PEMs)
The 61000 Security System DC configuration includes two Power Entry Modules (PEMs), each with
a rating of -48/-60VDC 125A. The PEMs supply DC power, EMC filtering and over-current
protection for the Chassis. Each PEM can supply 100% of Chassis power. The PEM is a customer
replaceable unit. The two-PEM configuration provides full redundancy. The PEMs are located in
the bottom-rear of the Chassis.
The DC configuration does not have its own power source. You must supply a mains DC power
system that includes an external battery and a branch circuit breaker of 125A for each PEM.
You must also supply lugs (Panduit LCD6-14A-L). Use them to connect wires to the terminal
blocks of the PEMs.
