MAGNUM 6K16-SERIES, with -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC Dual-Source
option
The
6K16-Series-Switch
models with the internal -48VDC, 24VDC and
125VDC Dual-Source power supply are designed for installations where a battery plant
is the power source, and where two separate power sources are utilized in order to
increase operational uptime and to simplify maintenance.
The functionality of the Magnum 6K16-Series Switch -48VDC, 24VDC and
125VDC Dual-Source Option units is identical to the standard AC-powered models.
Refer to the main sections of this
Installation and User Guide
for a detailed description
of the Magnum 6K16-Series Switches.

DUAL-SOURCE OPTION, THEORY OF OPERATION
The Dual-Source DC power
option is designed using diodes inside
of the chassis on each DC power input
line. A diode is placed in each of the
four input lines (behind the four
external power connection terminals)
so that power from an external source
can only flow into the unit. This allows the unit to operate whenever DC power is
correctly applied to either or both of the two inputs
