3.03.02 Input Power
Each unit incorporates an INRUSH circuit and input voltage sensing circuit. When the MAIN INPUT
SWITCH is turned ON, the inrush circuit provides a pre-charging of the input capacitors. SCR’s in
the Power Control Assembly (PCA) will turn ON after the input capacitors have charged to full
operating voltage (after approximately 5 seconds).
Note 3
Note the available input power. Damage to the PCA could occur if 460VAC or higher is applied.
