ErP Compliant In Line Power Supply
PSM114E/S - 12VDC 100mA power supply with Type-F connections
The PSM114E/S is a 12VDC regulated power supply ideal
for powering any masthead amplier, or a number of
masthead ampliers in cascade, providing the total
current demand is not more than 100mA.
The power supply complies with the ErP (Energy Related
Products) Directive. This means that when there is no load
the power used is less than 0.3W and the energy eciency
in use complies with the directive.
Fix the unit to the wall, skirting board, mounting board or
similar hard surface. A ventilation gap of at least 25mm
should be left around the front and sides of the unit.
Do not leave the power unit resting on a carpet.
Do not install the power unit where it may become smothered with curtains or other fabrics.
When installing the power unit in a roof space ensure that it will not become buried in thermal insulation materials.
Signal connections are made to the coaxial sockets on the right-hand side of the power unit. Good quality coaxial
cable to EN50117-2 must be used. Labgear recommend the use of CAI “benched marked” cable.
•
The down lead from the masthead amplier must be connected to the socket marked “AMP”.
•
The signal output from the socket marked “TV” is connected to the receiving installation
(satellite receiver, VCR, TV, etc.) or to the input of the cabled distribution system.
A connection to the PSM114E/S is made using Type-f (male) connectors. The use of high quality crimp connectors
is preferred. F type connectors should always be tightened with a spanner. Leaving them nger tight may result in
unwanted signal ingress or leakage, as well as suck-outs in the frequency response.
The PSM114E/S power unit is tted with a moulded mains plug and may be plugged directly into a socket outlet.
Alternatively the plug may be cut o and the power unit wired into a fused connection unit, tted with an approved
3A fuse to BS1362. The PSM114E/S is of a class 2 construction and does not require a protective earth connection.
If the power unit is not connected to the mains using the fused plug supplied or a fused connection unit, it must be
protected by means of a fuse or MCB at the distribution board of rating no more than 6A.
The PSM114E/S has automatic short circuit and overload protection and will cut out automatically when either is
detected. Reset is automatic when the problem is resolved.
To avoid risk of electric shock during installation we recommend that the power unit and all associated TV receivers,
etc. are isolated from the mains until the installation is complete.
Fixed wiring for electrical supply to these products should be carried out in accordance with BS7671
(IEE Wiring Regulations).
Distribution systems supplying signals to more than one household should comply with the safety requirements of
BS EN50083-1. This requires the system to be earth bonded or the use of isolated outlets.

The PSM114 is not waterproof and is intended for indoor use only and must not be xed where it could be exposed to
dripping or splashing water. Objects containing liquids should not be placed on or near the appliances.
To prevent the risk of re, objects with naked ames (such as lighted candles) must not be placed on or near appliances.
Fitted Mains plug
This appliance is supplied with a standard fused plug already tted. If this is not suitable, refer to the instructions below.
In the unlikely event that you need to change the fuse in the plug, a 3 Amp fuse to BS1362 carrying the ASTA or BSI
approval mark must be used. Always re-t the plastic fuse carrier when replacing the fuse.
Changing the Plug
If the mains plug is not suitable for the sockets in your home, it should be cut o and an appropriate new plug tted.
Wiring the new plug: Any instructions supplied with the new plug should be followed (these may state how much
insulation to remove from the wires in the mains cord). The Brown wire must be tted to the live + (L) terminal of the
plug and the Blue wire to the neutral - (N) terminal. Neither wire should be connected to the earth (E) terminal of the
3-pin plug (this appliance does not require an earth connection). Ensure that the cord grip is the plug is a fused type;
the fuse tted should be rated at no more than 3 Amp.
Caution: The old plug should be safely disposed of promptly since it could be dangerous if plugged into a live socket.
2 - Year Guarantee
Your amplier is guaranteed against faulty components or poor workmanship for
a period of two years from the date of purchase.
This guarantee does not cover accidental or malicious damage (Including damage from
natural causes such as lightning) and will be invalidated by installation or use other
than in accordance with these instructions, repair or attempted repair other than by the
manufacturer, or open or removal of the case. This does aect your statutory rights.
