Installing Converter Modules
ALERT!
This converter module (-58 VDC output) may be installed in a system that can either have +24V DC-DC converters
installed or -58V DC-DC converters installed. The system cannot have both types of converters installed at the same time.
ALERT!
This converter module must only be installed in a system position that accepts a -58V DC-DC converter. Refer to
the system documentation. Refer also to labeling on the system’s module mounting shelf. A sample of this labeling is
provided in Figure 2.2.
Figure 2.2: Sample Module Mounting Shelf Labeling
Converters can be inserted or removed with power applied (hot swappable).
NOTE!
Each converter locks into a module mounting shelf by means of a latch located on the bottom of the module. The
latch and converter handle are interactive. Pushing the handle up into the module’s front panel causes the latch to extend to
the locking position; pulling the handle down out from the module’s front panel causes the latch to retract. See Figure 2.3.
CAUTION!
This converter contains Double pole/Neutral fusing; parts of the equipment that remain energized might
represent a hazard during servicing after operation of the fuse.
WARNING!
To prevent damage to the latching mechanism, ensure the handle is in the open position when installing or
removing a converter. NEVER hold the handle in the closed position when installing a converter into a shelf.
Procedure
NOTE!
Refer to Figure 2.3 as this procedure is performed.
1.
Unpack the module.
2.
Remove the silicon rubber cover from the output port of the module and read the label.
3.
Place the module into an unoccupied mounting slot without sliding it in completely.
4.
Loosen the captive screw on the module’s handle. Pull the handle down out from the module’s front panel (this will also
retract the latch mechanism). See Figure 2.3.
5.
Push the module completely into the shelf.
6.
Push the handle up into the module’s front panel. This will lock the module securely to the shelf. Tighten the captive screw
on the handle.
7.
Repeat the above steps for each converter being installed in the system.
8.
After the converters are physically installed in the mounting shelf(s), they are ready for operation immediately after power is
supplied to them.
9.
Certain functions (i.e. converter current limit, converter addressing) may require adjustment when adding or replacing a
converter. Refer to “Converter Current Limit” on page 8 and the Power System documentation for instructions.
