Disconnect Configuration
When an AC input is present, the PSX-240-Relay will disconnect from
the system when that AC input connects to the FX system. This ensures
the PSX-240-Relay breakers do not trip if the AC input is not a 120/240
VAC power source.
A 12 VDC signal from the Auxiliary output of the one of the FXs in the
system causes a relay to open at the precise time the AC input connects,
effectively disconnecting the X-240 from the system.
Mechanical Installation
The PSX-240-Relay may be installed on a vertical or horizontal surface
utilizing the four mounting holes on the base of the unit. The holes are
sized to #10 screws. Be sure to use the appropriate style and grade of
fastener for your particular application. The PSX-240-Relay can only be
mounted in three positions.
Vertical Surface: The PSX-240-Relay breakers must be positioned
either to the right or to the left of the PSX-240-Relay enclosure.
Horizontal Surface: The PSX-240-Relay breakers must be facing
upward.
Wiring Connections and Torque Specs
The PSX-240-Relay is not supplied with the AC input wiring. This wire
must be obtained elsewhere. The wires should be stranded, rated for the
appropriate weather conditions, rated at least 75° Celsius, and be sized
large enough for a 25A breaker to protect them per the NEC. There are
multiple knock-outs on the PSX-240-Relay enclosure for routing these
wires.
Please review the IMPORTANT SAFETY GUIDELINES and
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS sections at the front of this manual
before installing the PSX-240-Relay!
