Installing the enclosures
DC power supply
DC power supplies are equipped with a power switch, as shown in the figure below.

when performing the following steps:
1.
Verify that the enclosure power switches are in the
Off
position.
2.
Connect a DC power cable to each DC power supply using the D-shell connector. Use the
UP>
arrow on the connector shell to ensure proper positioning (see adjacent left side view of D-shell
connector).
3.
Tighten the screws at the top and bottom of the shell, applying a torque between 1.7 N-m (15
in-lb) and 2.3 N-m (20 in-lb), to securely attach the cable to the DC power supply module.
4.
To complete the DC connection, secure the other end of each cable wire component of the DC
power cable to the target DC power source.
Check the three individual DC cable wire labels before connecting each cable wire lug to its power source. One cable
wire is labeled
ground
(GND) and the other two wires are labeled
positive
(+L) and
negative
(-L), respectively (shown
in
above).
CAUTION:
Connecting to a DC power source outside the designated -48V DC nominal range (-36V DC to -72V
DC) may damage the enclosure.
