Installation Instructions

MODEL

XP5

Turn off all power feeding the module terminals before installing, servicing or changing any switch settings, wiring, battery or fuses. Failure to observe this warning may cause electrical shock hazard or may damage internal or external circuit components. Various components of the unit will become hot during normal operation of the unit. Locate the unit away from cabling or other objects that may be affected or damaged by this heat dissipation. Use caution while working near the unit during normal operation - components can be hot enough to cause serious burns.

Install in accordance with applicable sections of the National Electrical Code and other State or Local Regulations.

1. Mounting the Board Locate the unit inside a UL Listed NEMA 1 enclosure (such as a BASE LVPC Low Voltage Power Cabinet). Drill or punch four 0.187" diameter holes (3/16”) to match the four corner holes in the printed circuit board. Push the nylon standoffs supplied into each hole and snap the PCB module into place. Mounting with double-sided tape is not recommended.

2. Transformer Wiring See Transformer Selection above. Connect Transformer output wires to the two Transformer

AC terminals.

3. DC Output Setup Set the Output Voltage Switch for the desired output - 12 or 24 VDC. With no load or battery wiring connected, turn on the AC power source. The AC and DC green LEDs will light. Next, measure the voltage at the DC Output terminals with a voltmeter. The output voltage is factory set to approx. 13.5 vdc or 27.0 vdc - ideal settings for charging batteries. However, if a field adjustment is desired, use a small screwdriver to slowly adjust the output voltage at the potentiometer labeled ADJ. (If no batteries are being used - adjust down to 12 vdc or 24 vdc). Then turn off the AC power source before proceeding with the installation.

4. Power Monitor Setup and Fault Relay Ouput Terminals Set the Option DIP Switches for the desired Power Monitor Options.

The Fault Alarm Relay is energized when no selected fault condition exists. The relay de-energizes and the Fault LED flashes when one or more selected Fault Conditions are present. Terminals of the relay contacts are labeled for when the relay is in Alarm. The ST terminal is a Spare Terminal that can be used as an easy splice point for an end-of-line resistor when monitoring the fault relay with a supervised circuit. Contact Rating is 2 Amps.

5. DC Output Wiring Connect output wiring to the DC OUTPUT terminals. Observe and verify correct DC polarity before powering the unit.

6. Battery Wiring Maximum standby batteries - 20 Ampere Hours. Connect battery wiring to battery terminals of the Power Supply first. Observe

and verify correct DC polarity before proceding to next step. Incorrect polarity will blow the

BATTERY FUSE.

7. Power Up Connect DC output load wiring. Re-check all connections and turn on the AC power source. Connect battery wiring to battery.

Calculating Total Current Draw

Total

Current Draw

The Total Current Draw must not exceed 5 Amps, or the power supply may overheat. The XP5 has built-in current limit/thermal overload protection and the DC output will turn off if either occurs. A better design guidline (to prevent early power problems and extend the life of power supplies and batteries) is to limit the calculated draw to 50-75% of Max. (2.50-3.75A), especially when charging batteries. Also, future system expansion should be considered in your load calculations.

Cable Resistance

When powering devices over considerable distances, cabling resistance may be so high that the voltage available at the device has dropped to an unacceptable level. To prevent this from occuring, system cabling should be designed with adequate sized conductors.

Heat Buildup

A by-product of all step-down power supplies/regulators/transformers is heat. Continuously pushing power supplies to their limits will maximize heat dissipation and buildup within power cabinets - which will thereby work to reduce the life of these components. Consider their location or the use of cabinet grills or fans to reduce heat buildup.

Power Distribution

Separately fusing output devices or groups of output devices greatly reduces trouble-shooting efforts. The larger the power supply and number of devices powered, the greater the need for power distribution. BASE has a variety of power distribution products that help speed installations while providing easier maintenance and a custom professional appearance.

The information in this manual is believed to be accurate in all respects. However, BASE Electronics cannot assume responsibility for any consequences resulting from the use thereof. The information contained herein is subject to change and BASE Electronics may issue a revision to incorporate such changes at any time.
