disconnect provides 360 watts of 48- or 24volt DC output. It features wide-
ranging AC input, low-noise emissions, temperature-compensated charging,
adjustable charge current, and Form C alarm contacts.
The power supply can be paired with the ICT DIN Power Distribution Unit (ICT-
DINPDU6) to allow remote monitoring of voltage, current, temperature and
alarms over Ethernet.
Features include:
- Wide-range Power Factor corrected AC input supports operation worldwide.
- Dedicated independently controlled backup battery port with LVD relay.
- Adjustable battery charge current to accommodate lower capacity batteries.
- Floating Form-C alarm contact output supports remote monitoring of unit operation.
- Serial communication with ICT-DIN-PDU6 for remote monitoring.

WARNING
Risk of serious personal injury or damage to equipment and property! Always
observe the following!
- If a battery is used ensure the nominal battery voltage is correct for the model of power supply, and that the battery positive is connected to the BAT positive (+) terminal and the battery negative is connected to the NEG (-) terminal.
- Use an appropriate DC over-current protection device such as a fuse or circuit breaker in line with the battery connection.
- Do not tie the LOAD and +BAT terminals together, as this will bypass the internal LVD circuitry.
- Make Ground connection to only a single LOAD or BATT terminal if required. Do not ground both LOAD and BATT as this may bypass the internal circuitry.
- The internal LVD relay switches the BATT + terminal. Do not connect the battery + to any other terminal.
- AC input wiring to the ICT DIN Power Supply must be protected using an outlet with a branch rated circuit breaker of 20A or lower value.

INSTALLATION
Inspect the power supply and accessories to make sure everything is complete
and in good condition.
Make the following connections using wire and connectors appropriately rated
for the maximum input and output current rating of the unit. The unit should
be placed near the backup battery in a location that restricts access to the
wiring and battery terminals, such as in an enclosed equipment cabinet. The
unit is designed for the DIN Rail TS-35(EN5002) standard DIN rail in an
enclosure and relies on convection cooling. Therefore, to ensure sufficient
air flow there must be a minimum 4” of open space above and below the ICT DIN
Power Supply.
-
Install DIN Power Supply on DIN Rail TS-35(EN5002) standard DIN rail.
Step 1. Push device from bottom while also pushing towards mounting rail to engage spring loaded clip| Step 2. Pivot the device towards the wall so that the top hook clips into the mounting rail as illustrated
Figure 3. Installation of ICT DIN Power supply and Distribution unit
- For a Positive-ground system, connect the power supply LOAD (+) output terminal to the “RTN” terminal which is connected to the earth ground and connect the power supply LOAD (-) output terminal to the input terminal like figure 2. Note that the ICT DIN Power Supply can be connected to an ICT DIN Power Distribution Unit as either a negative or positive-ground system.
- If the power supply is used in combination with an ICT DIN Power Distribution Unit (ICT-DIN-PDU6), the serial data cable (provided with the PDU6) can be installed to allow the Power Distribution Unit to monitor the status of the power supply. Install the power supply and Power Distribution Unit side by side, then connect the two RJ-11 COMM ports together using the data cable, as shown in Figure 2. The green “DC OK” LED will blink once every 10 seconds if the data connection is functioning properly.

Battery Backup:
✓ Choose a lead-acid battery with a nominal voltage rating (24/48V) that
matches the ICT DIN Power Supply output voltage, and has an Amp-hour (Ahr)
capacity rating of at least 3 times the maximum charge current setting of the
power supply (e.g. Use a 45Ahr or larger rated battery (3 x 15A) with a 15A
max charge setting)
✓ Connect the battery negative to the BATT (–) terminal.
✓ Connect the battery positive to an over-current protection device (fuse or
breaker) and disconnect switch
✓ With the battery fuse removed or disconnect switch open, connect the fuse or
switch to the BATT (+) terminal
✓ Plug the AC connector at the bottom of the front face of the unit. The earth
ground is connected through AC power cable
✓ The internal LVD contactor is always connected to the battery positive
though the integrated fuse (20A)
Set the charge current to be supplied to the battery by rotating the selector
dial with small slotted screwdriver. Note that actual current flow to the
battery may be less than the setting, and is determined by the battery state
of charge and temperature.
The default Low voltage disconnect (LVD) setpoints are listed in the following
chart:
LVD Setting | 24V | 48V |
---|---|---|
Disconnect V (Default) | 22 | 44 |
Reconnect V (Default) | 25 | 50 |
WIRING
The unit has dual output circuits (Load & Battery) in a 6-pin connector.
Utilize dual wiring for the LOAD connection to minimize the voltage drop due
to cable length in cases where load cable is more than 15 feet from the unit.
For the battery connection, utilize single wiring. Refer to the following
table for the appropriate wire gauge (AWG).
Location | Socket / Plug | Wire (AWG) |
---|---|---|
AC input | Socket: 3EHDVM-03p Plug: 3ESDVM-03P | 12 – 16 |
Output Load / BATT | Socket: 2EHDVC-06P Plug: 2ESDP-06P | 12 – 14 |
Form C / Temp. sensor | Socket: 2EHDVC-05P Plug: 2ESDP-05P | 22 – 26 |
Make a Ground connection (if required) to only a single +/- battery or load
terminal (Load side preferred). Do not connect both the load and battery to
ground as this will bypass critical internal circuitry disabling the charge
control functions. The internal LVD relay is in series with the BATT +
terminal.
Connect the external alarm monitoring wiring to the Form-C alarm contact
output if desired, using 22-26AWG wire clamped in the removable Alarm/Temp
plug. (See
Alarm Output Contacts table below)
ALARM Pin | Name | Description | Wire (AWG) |
---|---|---|---|
1 | NC | Alarm State Normally Closed contact | 22 – 26 |
2 | NO | Alarm State Normally Open contact | 22 – 26 |
3 | C | Alarm output, Common | 22 – 26 |
Connect the optional remote battery temperature sensor:
Connect the temperature sensor (ICT-TMP) to the TEMP input on the removable connector. Using the temperature sensor will enable the unit to compensate the charge Float voltage according to the battery case temperature, to help fully charge cold batteries and ensure warm batteries are not over charged. Connect each of the two wires on the remote temperature probe to the two TEMP inputs on the connector (polarity does not matter). Affix the probe body to a side midpoint on one of the battery cases using the adhesive backed plastic clip included with the sensor.
OPERATION
Plug the AC input connector into the unit and check that the green “DC OK” LED
on the front of the unit is lit. Verify the supply output voltage using a
handheld digital voltmeter. If a battery is connected, install the external
fuse, and close the disconnect switch. If the external back-up battery is
connected, disconnect AC power and use a handheld digital voltmeter to verify
that the battery voltage is provided to the output load terminal. Reconnect AC
power and verify the output supply voltage rises to the normal output rating
as the battery charges.
The unit can now be left operating normally. As long as the external back-up
battery voltage is greater than the low voltage disconnect (LVD) level, the
battery will be connected directly to the supply output and will instantly
power the load in case of an AC power failure. When AC power is lost, the
battery will gradually be discharged by the load. When the battery voltage
drops below the LVD disconnect level the internal relay will open preventing
the battery from being excessively discharged.
When AC power returns, the unit will close the LVD relay and charge the battery to bring the voltage back up to the float voltage level. Battery charge current is adjusted by rotating the “CHARGE CURRENT” selector dial with slotted screwdriver. The adjustable level of battery charge current is 25%/50%/75%/100% of available output current, and the factory default is 25%. Batteries will be charged to the supply output voltage level with current limited to the maximum supply output rating. To increase the battery charging current, rotate the selector dial clockwise. Combined with the ICT DIN Power Distribution Unit, remote monitoring is available through the Ethernet controller and user interface showing in figure 4.

CAUTION
Risk of damage to equipment!
- Ensure battery current supplied through the internal LVD contactor cannot exceed the current rating of the unit
- Do not use the internal LVD contactor for parallel applications where load current can exceed the maximum rating of a single unit
