3.0 Installation
Refer to the Safety Precautions, Utility Power Connection Notes, and Grounding Connection Notes
(pages 7-12) prior to installation.
CAUTION!
To Ensure Operator Safety:
• Only qualified personnel should install the power supply in accordance with all applicable
electrical codes.
• Use eye protection whenever working with batteries.
• Use only sealed, lead-acid type batteries with a minimum rating of 55Ah (gelled-electrolyte or
equivalent).
Unpacking and Inspection:
Remove the GMX Power Supply from the shipping container. Verify that the power supply (including
Remote Temperature Sensor) and any other ordered options have been included.
Carefully inspect the contents of the shipping container. If any items are damaged or missing, contact
Alpha Technologies or the shipping company immediately. Most shipping companies have only a
short claim period.
Preinstallation Inspection:
• During shipping, movement of components may occur. Inspect the power supply for possible
shipping-related failures, such as loosened or damaged connectors. If needed, inspect the
interior for loose or damaged connectors. Correct any discrepancies before proceeding with the
power supply installation.
• Do not attempt to install a damaged power supply without first passing a complete Preinstallation
Inspection and Start-up Test.
Please refer to the “Preliminary Inspection Checklist” (Alpha P/N 017-932-B1) that accompanies each power
supply. SAVE THE ORIGINAL SHIPPING CONTAINER.
NOTE:
Use the original shipping container if the GMX Power Supply needs to be returned for service. If
the original container is not available, make sure the unit is packed with at least three inches of
shock-absorbing material in all orientations to prevent shipping damage. Do not use popcorn-type
material. Alpha Technologies is not responsible for damage caused by improper packaging on
returned units.
