damaged components may be a safety hazard.
4.3.3.1 AC/DC Power Supply
The
1
AC/DC
power supply
(Fig. 26)
is used to connect the power
controller to a suitable 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz grounded power source
capable of supplying a minimum of 5 amps.
The safety of the power controller relies on the provision of a proper
ground connection.
In environments with moisture present, a GFCI
(Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter)
must be used to ensure operator safety.
NOTE:
Some generators or DC-AC inverters may introduce significant levels
of noise to the system. This may degrade overall system performance
or reduce the system life expectancy. The use of generators or DC-AC
inverters is not recommended and is used at the operator’s risk.
