The t-Boss 7400 ACDC Track Driver is available in two versions:

Ÿ

SP (standard power) - each output is approximately 7.5 Volts AC with 3 Amp output load (12.6 VDC
input).

Ÿ

XP (extra power) - each output is approximately 10.2 Volts AC with 3 Amp output load (12.6 VDC
input).

Compared to early technology track drivers, the t-Boss 7400SP can provide about 16% greater driving
capability whereas the t-Boss 7400XP can provide about 34% greater driving capability.

t-Boss 7400 Familiarization

The t-Boss 7400 ACDC Track Driver is self-contained in a durable, compact steel enclosure. It is easily

mounted on the equipment wall of a signal bungalow or cabinet. For rack mounting, an adapter plate
is available for standard rack hole spacing. All wiring connections are made via a single 10-position
connector that requires no crimp terminals – simply strip the wire, insert into the connector receiver
clamp and tighten the wire-clamp screw.

The DC power input circuit breaker is intended to disconnect the unit from the DC battery supply if

connected  improperly  or  an  internal  short-circuit  should  occur.  Please  note  however,  the  circuit
breaker cannot always act fast enough to prevent damage to the unit if it is connected improperly.

The t-Boss 7400 includes secondary power surge protection for the 12VDC input and each of the four

track circuit outputs.

The  front  panel  drawing  to  the  left  shows  the

important features of the t-Boss 7400 ACDC Track
Driver.

(8)

 15A Circuit Breaker

The five LED indicators provide status information

regarding the operation of the t-Boss 7400 ACDC

Track Driver.

The t-Boss 7400 senses overvoltage and undervoltage conditions for DC battery power input. When

either of these conditions exist, the unit immediately shuts down.
