POE240
Power Supply/Charger Board
Overview:
Altronix POE240 provides 240W for NetWay Spectrum switches with 1Gb SFP ports. It converts 115VAC, 60Hz or 230VAC, 50/60Hz input into a 56VDC at 4.5A of continuous supply current (see specifications). It also features a built-in charger for LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate), sealed lead acid or gel-type batteries.
Specifications:
Input:
- 115VAC, 60Hz, 2.5A or 230VAC, 50/60Hz, 1.3A.
Output:
- 56VDC/240W output.
- 4.25A continuous supply current.
- Filtered and electronically regulated output.
- Short circuit and thermal overload protection.
Battery Backup:
- 24VDC charging circuit charges LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) or sealed lead acid or gel type batteries.
- Automatic switch over to stand-by battery when AC fails.
- Includes battery leads.
Environmental:
-
Operating Temperature (De-Rating):
240W: – 30ºC to 55ºC (– 22ºF to 131F).
180W: – 30ºC to 65ºC (– 22ºF to 149ºF).
150W: – 30ºC to 75ºC (– 22ºF to 167ºF). -
Storage Temperature: – 30ºC to 85ºC (– 22ºF to 185ºF).
-
Relative Humidity: 85% +/– 5%.
Board Dimensions (L x W x H approx.): 7.75” x 4.5” x 1.375” (196.9mm x 114.3mm x 34.9mm).
Installation Instructions:
POE240 should be installed in accordance with The National Electrical Code and all applicable Local Regulations.
-
Mount POE240 in the desired location/enclosure (mounting hardware included). Pay attention to correct positioning of the board, depending on Altronix product being serviced. Mounting hardware included.
-
Connect AC power from overcurrent protective device circuit breaker (20A @ 115VAC, 60Hz, 16A @ 230VAC, 50/60Hz) to the terminals marked [L, N] on power supply board (Fig. 1). Use 14AWG or larger for all power connections (Battery, DC output, AC input).
Keep power-limited wiring separate from non-power-limited wiring (115VAC/230VAC 50/60Hz Input, Battery Wires). Minimum 0.25” spacing must be provided.
CAUTION: Do not touch exposed metal parts. Shut branch circuit power before installing or servicing equipment. There are no user serviceable parts on unit. Refer installation and servicing to qualified service personnel. -
Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage.
-
Connect devices to be powered to the terminals marked [– DC 56V +].
-
When the use of stand-by batteries is desired, they must be LiFePO 4, sealed lead acid or gel type. Connect two (2) 12VDC batteries wired in series or one (1) 24V battery to terminals marked [– BAT +] (Fig. 1), carefully observing polarity (battery leads are included). When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the loss of output voltage.
Note: When using two 12V LiFePO 4 (lithium iron phosphate) batteries, check with manufacturer specifications that batteries can be connected in series.
Terminal Identification:
| Terminal Legend | Function/Description |
|---|---|
| L, G, N | Connect 115VAC/230VAC to these terminals: L to Hot, N to Neutral. |
| – DC 56V + | 56VDC @ 4.5A continuous supply current. |
| – BAT 24V + | Stand-by battery connections. |
