Installation Instructions:

Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/NFPA 72/ANSI, the Canadian
Electrical Code and with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction. The product is intended for indoor use only.

1. Mount the eFlowNBV power supply/charger in desired location/enclosure (mounting hardware included).
   Use metal standoffs for the bottom mounting holes to provide sufficient grounding for the board.

2. Set desired DC output voltage by setting SW1 to the appropriate position on the power supply board (Fig. 1i, pg. 5).

3. Connect unswitched AC power (220VAC, 50/60Hz) to terminals marked [L, G, N] (Fig. 1a, pg. 5).
   Use 14 AWG or larger for all power connections. Secure green wire leads to earth ground.
   Keep power-limited wiring separate from non-power-limited wiring (220VAC, 50/60Hz Input,
   DC Output (refer to Specifications chart pg. 3), 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 inside.
   Refer installation and servicing to qualified service personnel.

4. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoid potential damage.

5. Connect devices to be powered to terminals marked [– DC +] (Fig. 1h, pg. 5).
   For auxiliary device connection, this output will not be affected by Low Power Disconnect or Fire Alarm Interface. Connect the device to terminals marked [+ AUX –] (Fig. 1f, pg. 5).

6. For Access Control applications batteries are optional. When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the loss of output voltage. When the use of stand-by batteries is desired, they must be lead acid or gel type.
   Connect the battery to terminals marked [– BAT +] (Fig. 1g, pg. 5) . Use two (2) 12VDC batteries connected in series for 24VDC operation (battery leads included). Use batteries – Castle CL1270 (12V/7AH), CL12120 (12V/12AH), CL12400 (12V/40AH), CL12650 (12V/65AH) batteries or UL-recognized BAZR2 batteries of an appropriate rating.
   Note: Separate enclosures must be used for housing 40AH or 65AH batteries.

7. Connect appropriate signaling notification devices to AC FAIL & BAT FAIL (Fig. 1b, pg. 5) supervisory relay outputs.

8. To delay AC reporting for 2 hrs ., set SW2 to the appropriate DIP switch position [AC Delay] (Fig. 1c, pg. 5).

9. To enable or disable Low Output Power Shutdown set SW2 to the appropriate DIP switch position [Shutdown](Fig. 1c, pg. 5) .
   10 . A short or NO or NC input triggers FACP [Trigger EOL Shutdown] (Fig. 1d, pg. 5).
   11 . Place a jumper for non-latching FACP. A momentary short on these terminals resets FACP latching
   [Trigger EOL Shutdown] (Fig. 1e, pg. 5).

Wiring:

Use 18 AWG or larger for all low voltage power connections.
Note: Take care to keep power-limited circuits separate from non-power- limited wiring (220VAC, Battery)

Maintenance:

The unit should be tested at least once a year for the proper operation as follows:
Output Voltage Test: Under normal load conditions, the DC output voltage should be checked for proper voltage level.
Battery Test:
Under normal load, conditions check that the battery is fully charged, and check the specified voltage (12VDC @ 13 .2 or 24VDC @ 26 .4) both at the battery terminal and at the board terminals marked [– BAT +] to ensure that there is no break in the battery connection wires.
Replacing Batteries: Disconnect existing batteries. Connect the battery to the terminals marked [– BAT +]. Use two (2) 12VDC batteries connected in series for 24VDC operation.

LED Diagnostics:

Bat Fail NC, C, NO| Indicates low battery condition, e.g. connect to the alarm panel.
The relay is normally energized when DC power is present. Contact rating 1A @ 30VDC. A removed battery is reported within 5 minutes.
Battery reconnection is reported within 1 minute (power-limited) (Fig. 1b, pg. 5).
