Section 3: Installation
3.1 Mounting Options
3.1.1 In a CAB-3/4 Series Backbox
The APS2-6R can be mounted into a CAB-3/4 Series backbox using the CHS-4 Series chassis. For more information
on mounting the chassis to the backbox, refer to the
CAB-3/4 Series Installation Document
.
1. Place the APS2-6R onto the mounting studs of the chassis. See Figure 3.1 below.
2. Insert a standoff through both of the printed circuit board mounting holes, threading each standoff to the
mounting studs on the chassis. Use two (2) #6-32 x 1.25” hex standoffs.
3. Tighten the standoffs until the APS2-6R is securely fastened to the chassis.
3.1.2 In an AFP-200 Cabinet
The APS2-6R mounts behind the AFP-200 Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). The AFP-200 must be removed in
order to mount the APS2-6R power supply. For information on wiring the APS2-6R to the AFP-200, refer to
Section B.1 on page 20 and the
AFP-200 Installation Manual
.
1. Disconnect all power sources.
2. Access the AFP-200 cabinet to remove the FACP. Remove the CPU board assembly by unscrewing the four
screws in the corners of the board. Set the CPU board aside in a safe, clean place. Avoid static discharge which
may damage the board.
3. Align the APS2-6R over the mounting holes of the cabinet. Observe orientation of the power supply when
installing it into the cabinet. See Figure 3.2 below.
4. Insert a self-tapping screw, from the hardware kit, through each of the printed circuit board mounting holes,
threading each screw to the mounting holes on the cabinet.
5. Tighten the screws until the APS2-6R is securely fastened to the cabinet.
!
WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGES PRESENT
Use extreme caution when working with the APS2-6R. High voltage and AC line-connected circuits are present.
Turn off and remove all power sources. To reduce the risk of electric shock make sure to properly ground the unit.
Be sure to apply and test AC power before connecting batteries.
NOTE:
A surge suppressor, model EDCO HSP121BT-1RU (for 120VAC operations) is required when using the
FCM-1-REL for releasing applications. The APS2-6RE power supply is not suitable for releasing.
