II. Installation Instructions

1. Mount cabinet per mechanical dimensions and knockout locations given in Section IV.

2. Connect 120VAC, 60Hz., single phase to the black and white leads of the transformer in accordance

with Article 725 or 760 of the National Electrical Code, or Article 16 or 32 of the Canadian Electrical
Code.

3. Low Volt AC Input - Connect to secondary winding of the transformer.
v Fused at 10 Amps (Fuse Type AGC-10)

4. Verify output voltage at "DC Output" and "Battery" terminals.
12V system measures approximately 13.8VDC.
24V system measures approximately 27.6VDC.

5. Connect battery set to "Battery" terminals.
CAUTION: Observe polarity; incorrect polarity will destroy battery fuse.
Fused at 10 Amps (Fuse Type AGC-10).
Recommended battery type - PowerSonic (PSSeries) or YUASA (NPSeries) sealed lead acid/gel cell.

6. Connect "DC Output" to input of user system.
CAUTION: Observe polarity; incorrect polarity may damage user system.
Refer to Section I for Maximum Allowable System Current.

7. Visual Indicators:

AC Presence LED1: Green LED
Fault Condition LED3: Yellow LED (PS5-BFS)
System OK LED3: Green LED (PS5-B03)

8. Connect "Fault Output" to system fault annunciation.
PS5-BFS Models: Current limited voltage output

12V system; short circuit fault current is 25mA maximum.

24V system; short circuit fault current is 50mA maximum.
For fault reporting in fire applications, use Relay Module RBKS-124P or RBKS-124N: See Section III.
PS5-B03 Models: Form "C" relay contacts; rated 1A @ 24VDC

9. Fault Conditions: Low AC / No AC / Blown AC Fuse / Low Battery / Blown Battery Fuse
CAUTION: Fault condition reporting may be delayed dependent on power supply loading.
The battery set is NOT supervised for presence.

10. This unit is intended to be placed in the same room as the control equipment.

11. UL and ULC Battery Standby Information for proper operation of this unit:
a. For 60 hr. standby with 18Ah battery set: Max standby draw: .15A, Max 5 minute alarm current: 3A.

b. For 24 hr. standby with 18Ah battery set: Max standby draw: .4A,

Max 5 minute alarm current: 3A.
c. For 60 hr. standby with 36Ah battery set: Max standby draw: .5A,
Max 5 minute alarm current: 2A.
d. For 24 hr. standby with 36Ah battery set - Max standby draw: 1A,
Max 5 minute alarm current: 2A.
e. For 4 hr. standby with 20 Ah battery set - Max standby draw: 3A,
Max 5 minute alarm current: 4A.

12. Power Supply System Draw (No AC, No load) is 25mA.

III. Typical Hook-up Diagrams
