SMP5CTX220
Overview:
Altronix SMP5CTX220 and SMP5PMCTX220 power supply/chargers convert 115VAC or 230VAC (working
range 198VAC - 256VAC), 50Hz/60Hz input into a regulated 12VDC or 24VDC output with 4A of continuous
load current (see specifications).

Installation Instructions:
Wiring methods should be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/NFPA 72/ANSI, and
with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction. Product is intended for indoor use only.
1. Mount unit in the 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. 4). Secure enclosure to earth ground.
2. Slide [Power ON/OFF] switch t o OFF position.
3. Set SW1 on the power supply board to the desired DC output voltage (Fig. 1b, pg. 3)
(Power Supply Voltage Output Specification Chart).
4. Connect AC circuit (115VAC or 230VAC, 50Hz/60Hz) as follows: Green branch wire connects to ground
lug . Line and Neutral to the connector on power supply board marked [L, N] respectively.
Use 18 AWG or larger for all power connections (Battery, DC output).
Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for power-limited circuits (AC Fail/Low Battery reporting).
5. Slide [Power ON/OFF] switch to ON position.
6. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage.
CAUTION: Do not touch exposed metal parts. Shut branch circuit power before installing or servicing
equipment. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Refer installation and servicing to qualified service personnel.
7. Slide [Power ON/OFF] switch t o OFF position.
8. Connect devices to be powered to the terminals marked [– DC + ] carefully observing correct polarity.
Note: Power switch is used to disconnect the L (HOT) terminal from the rest of the board.
When servicing the unit, AC mains should be removed.
9. When using stand-by batteries, they must be lead acid or gel type. Connect battery to the terminals marked
[– BAT +] (battery leads included).
12VDC operation: Use one (1) 12VDC battery.
24VDC operation: Use two (2) 12VDC batteries connected in series.
Note: When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the loss of output voltage.
10.
SMP5PMCTX220 Only: Connect appropriate signaling notification devices to AC Fail and Low Bat
supervisory relay outputs marked [NC, C, NO] (Fig. 1a, pg. 2).
11. Slide [Power ON/OFF] switch to ON position.
