PSU Installation, Set-up & Operation
Mounting:
Mount the power supply on a sound surface using appropriate
fixings for the installation, mounting screw locations are located
within the lid screw apertures – these must be used to retain the
enclosure IP66 rating. Route mains cable though left hand M16
cable gland, the three M12 cable glands are used for the LED
power O/P’s and the remote input / output contacts (if used).
Note: Any unused glands must be ‘plugged’ with supplied
blanks and tightened to ensure IP66 protection.
Connections:
Attach correctly rated mains cable (minimum 0.5mm² [3A],
300/500Vac) to the mains input connection. Connect the
illuminators to the LED Output 1 & 2 connections, there are 2
available to assist with connecting multiple units – note polarity.
The remote input is triggered by connecting the input to 0V by
a suitable N/C contact. The Remote Output ‘follower’ contact
provides a N/C output when the output to the illumination
unit(s) is in the ‘ON’ state, going N/O when power is removed.
Output Current Adjustment (Brightness):
Brightness of the illuminators can be adjusted by the user output
current adjustment potentiometer Turning the pot clockwise
using a small terminal screwdriver will increase the current (LEDs
brighter), turning anticlockwise will reduce the current and
therefore decrease the brightness of the illumination. Note: DO
NOT force the potentiometer past its end points.
Setting ‘Switch-on’ Lux Level:
By adjusting the Lux Level potentiometer, the installer can
set the external light level at which the PSU will switch on the
illumination unit(s). Turning the pot clockwise using a small
terminal screwdriver will increase the light level required before
the unit turns on, anticlockwise will reduce the light level
required. Setting the pot fully anti-clockwise will set the output
to be on continuously while setting the potentiometer fully
clockwise (indicated by the status LED flashing briefly) will set
the PSU to ‘Remote Input’ mode where the unit will only turn
on with the remote input activated. Note: DO NOT force the
potentiometer past its end points.
The unit is only suitable for installation as permanently
connected equipment. EQUIPMENT MUST BE EARTHED. Before
installation, ensure that external disconnect device is OFF.
The PSU should be installed according to all relevant safety
regulations. The unit is intended for use by Service Personnel
only - There are NO USER SERVICEABLE parts inside. There is no
regular maintenance required of the PSU, if the output of the
PSU fails, the cause of the failure should be investigated e.g.
short circuit load. The fault should be rectified before restoring
power to the PSU.
