11.7 FAN FAILURE ALARM

This alarm / relay based remote signaling is activated if the fan speed reduces or the fan stops. 

See Table 11.2 under “Fan Failure” for status of front panel LEDs and LCD messaging resulting from this 
condition. 

11.8 OVER VOLTAGE ALARM

This alarm / relay based remote signaling is activated when the DC input voltage is higher than the value of 
parameter “OV Alarm”. The alarm is reset automatically as follows:
 

•  PSR-1200-24:  0.5V lower than the value of “OV Alarm” 

 

•  PSR-1200-48:  1.0V lower than the value of “OV Alarm” 

See Table 11.2 under “Over Voltage Alarm” for status of front panel LEDs and LCD messaging resulting from 
this condition. 

11.9 UNDER VOLTAGE ALARM

This alarm / relay based remote signaling is activated when the DC input voltage is lower than the value of 
parameter “UV Alarm”. The alarm is reset automatically as follows:
 

•  PSR-1200-24:  0.5V higher than the value of “UV Alarm” 

 

•  PSR-1200-48:  1.0V higher than the value of “UV Alarm” 

See Table 11.2 under “Under Voltage Alarm” for status of front panel LEDs and LCD messaging resulting from 
this condition.
