SMP3E - High Current Power Supply / Charger

Overview:

The SMP3E High Current Power Supply / Charger will convert a low voltage AC input to a low voltage DC output.
This general purpose power supply has a wide range of applications for access control, security and CCTV
system accessories that require additional power.

Specifications:

• 6, 12 or 24VDC selectable output.
• 2.5 amp continuous supply current.
• Filtered and electronically regulated output.
• Built-in charger for sealed lead acid or gel type batteries. 
• Maximum charge current 300mA.
• Automatic switchover to stand-by battery when AC Fails.
• AC input and DC output LED indicators. 
• Thermal and short circuit protection with auto reset.
• Fused battery protection (circuit breakers available).
• Includes battery leads.
• Extremely compact design.
Board Dimensions: 3.5”L x 2.75”W x 1.75”H 
Enclosure Dimensions: 8.5”H x 7.5” W x 3.5” D

Voltage Output/Transformer Selection Table:

Note:

Transformers with higher VA ratings may be used for all output voltages above as long as you 
do not exceed 28VAC or 45VDC.

Installation Instructions:

1. Mount power supply board into enclosure 

(see Step 1 and Step 2, pg. 2)

.

2. Mount unit in desired location. Mark and predrill holes in the wall to line up with the top two keyholes in the

enclosure. Install two upper fasteners and screws in the wall with the screw heads protruding. Place the enclosure’s 
upper keyholes over the two upper screws, level and secure. Mark the position of the lower two holes. Remove the 
enclosure. Drill the lower holes and install the three fasteners. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the two
upper screws. Install the two lower screws and make sure to tighten all screws 

(Enclosure Dimensions, pg. 2)

.

Secure enclosure to earth ground. 

3. Connect proper transformer to terminals marked [XFMR] (refer to voltage output/transformer selection table).

Use 18 AWG or larger for all power connections (Battery, DC output).

Keep power limited wiring separate from non-power limited wiring (115VAC / 60Hz Input, Battery Wires).
Minimum .25” spacing must be provided.

4. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoid potential damage.
5. Devices to be powered should be connected to terminals marked [+ DC –] carefully observing polarity.
6.  Connect battery to terminals marked [+ BAT --- ] (battery leads included)

Note:

When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in a loss of output voltage.
