Code 3 PSE475 Remote Strobe Power Supply - Manual (Page 2)

Introduction
The PSE475 Series Remote Strobe Power Supply represents the latest in state-of-the-art strobe warning
technology. The latest in MOSFET technology and advanced design provide efficient operation, meaning
superior performance , reliability and long life. The use of intelligent microprocessor control allows the Model
PSE475 series to offer more light pattern options and versatility than any other remote system available. The
user may select the standard Quad flash pattern or select any of five additional auxiliary patterns. In addition,
the user can utilize all flash options with
Cycle Flash TM a feature that allows cycling continuously through all
possible patterns. When connected to remote strobe heads , the PSE475 delivers the highest available level of
emergency warning signals.
Standard Features
All MODEL PSE475 Remote Strobe Power Supplies come equipped with the following standard features:
(See fig. 3, page 5)
MULTIPLE OPERATING VOLTAGES
10-30 VDC operation only. Reverse polarity protected
EXTERNAL FUSE PROTECTION
User replacable 15 AMP fuse for +12 VDC operation.
NOTE: For +24 VDC operation, the user should replace this with a 7.5 AMP fuse.
OUTPUT SHORT CIRCUIT/FLASHTUBE FAILURE PROTECTION
Power supply will shut-off when trying to flash any heads that have been shorted, or have a failed flash tube.
MULTIPLE USER SELECTABLE FLASH PATTERNS
User may select either Quad Flash, Double Flash, Fast Double flash, Triple Flash, Five Flash, or Cycle Flash
patterns. See Flash Control Options Section, page 7.
SELECTABLE SWITCHING CONTROL OF OUTLET PAIRS
Allows user, when in the standard Quad Flash mode, to select either alternating outlet pairs 1 and 4 only, or 2
and 3 only.
NOTE: Additional auxiliary flash modes utilize all outlets, 2 outlets alternate with 2 outlets. There is no select-
able switching available.
HI/LO POWER CONTROL
Allows reduction of strobe light intensity using either +VDC or (earth) ground switching for night time use.
