ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS
The power supply requires a fused, single-phase, standard 3-terminal
grounding type receptacle capable of supplying the requisite voltage and
current. Refer to the table below for power specification.
SETTING UP
The power supply is a free-standing assembly. It should be installed in a clear,
uncluttered location that is free from excessive dirt, dust, corrosive fumes, and
temperature and humidity extremes. The selected installation site should be
near the electrical power source and away from equipment that generates
abnormally high electrical transients. Observe the following additional
instructions when installing the equipment:
a. Allow at least 6 inches (152.4mm) at the rear of the power supply for cable
connections.
b. Position the power supply so that the front panel controls are visible and
readily accessible.
c. The power supply is air cooled; allow sufficient space around the assembly
to ensure adequate ventilation. If the power supply must be housed in a
confined space, forced air cooling may be necessary to keep surrounding
air within acceptable ambient temperature limits. Periodically check the
ventilation grille and clean as necessary.
The line cord of the
controller/power supply is
equipped with a 3-prong,
grounding plug. Do not,
under any circumstances,
remove the ground prong.
The plug must be plugged
into a mating 3-prong,
grounding type outlet.
POWER SPECIFICATIONS
NOTE: If power supply is
to be run continuously, air
cooling of the converter
and horn is required. Use
clean, dry compressed air
filtered down to 5 microns
(supplied to converter
fitting – see page 11).
