DESCRIPTION
This variable-purpose power supply is suitable for many differ-
ent applications for security, access control and CCTV system
accessories that need supplementary power. NP-P3A power
supply/charger converts low voltage AC input into 6VDC,
12VDC or 24VDC @ 3 amps of continuous supply current (see
specifications).
FEATURES
•
Dip switch selectable 6VDC-12VDC-24VDC output.
•
3 amps continuous supply current at 6VDC-12VDC-24VDC*.
•
Filtered and electronically regulated output.
•
Built-in charger for sealed lead acid or gel type batteries.
•
Maximum charge current 350mA.
•
Automatic switch over to stand-by battery
•
Battery short circuit protection (circuit breaker).
•
Thermal overload and short circuit protection.
•
AC input and DC output LED indicators.
•
Extremely compact design.
•

Board dimensions: 99.6mm L x 76.45mm W x 60mm H
*
Specified at 25° C ambient.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The NP-P3A should be installed in accordance with The Na-
tional Electrical Code and all applicable Local Regulations.
1. Mount the NP-P3A in desired location/enclosure.
2. Set DC output voltage with dip switches (refer to
Voltage Output/
Transformer Selection Table
).
3. Connect proper transformer to terminals marked [AC]. (Refer to
Voltage Output/Transformer Selection Table
) Use 18 AWG or
larger for all power connections (Battery, DC output).
Keep power limited wiring separate from non-power limited
wiring (115VAC / 60Hz Input, Battery Wires). Minimum .25"
spacing must be provided.
4. Connect devices to be powered to terminals marked [+ DC -].
Note:
It is important to measure output voltage before connecting
devices. This helps avoid potential damage.
5.
When the use of stand-by batteries are desired, they must be
lead acid or gel type. Connect battery to terminals marked [+
BAT -] on the unit (battery leads included). Use two (2)
12VDC batteries connected in series for 24VDC operation.
Note:
When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the
loss of output voltage.
