Supervised Power Supply/Charger
Installation Guide
Overview:
Altronix SMP5PM is a supervised power supply/charger that converts a low
voltage AC input into a 12VDC or 24VDC selectable output with 4A of continuous
supply current (see specifications). This general purpose power supply has a
wide range of applications for access control, security and CCTV system
accessories that require additional power.
Specifications:
Input:
- 24VAC or 28VAC (See Voltage Output/Transformer Selection Table).
Output:
- 12VDC or 24VDC selectable output.
- 4A supply current.*
- Filtered and electronically regulated outputs.
- Short circuit and thermal overload protection.
Supervision:
- AC fail supervision (form “C” contacts).
- Low battery supervision (form “C” contacts).
Battery Backup:
- Built-in charger for sealed lead acid or gel type batteries.
- Maximum charge current 0.3A.
- Zero voltage drop when switching over to battery backup.
Visual Indicators:
- AC input and DC output LED indicators.
Board Dimensions (W x L x H approx.):
7” x 4.05” x 1.35” (177.8mm x 102.9mm x 34.3mm)
Specified at 25˚C ambient
Voltage Output/Transformer Selection Table:
Output VDC| Switch Position| Max. Load DC| Transformer
Requirements
---|---|---|---
12VDC| SW1 ON| 4A| 24VAC or 28VAC / 100VA (T2428100)
24VDC| SW1 OFF| 4A| 24VAC or 28VAC / 175VA (T2428175)
Note: Transformers with higher VA ratings may be used for all output voltages above as long as you do not exceed 28VAC or 45VDC.
Installation Instructions:
SMP5PM should be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and
all applicable Local Regulations.
-
Mount SMP5PM board in the desired location/enclosure (mounting hardware included).
-
Set SMP5PM to the desired DC output voltage via SW1 (Voltage Output/Transformer Selection Table).
-
Connect proper transformer to the terminals marked [AC] (Voltage Output/Transformer Selection Table). Use 18 AWG or larger for all power connections (Battery, DC output).
Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for power-limited circuits (AC Fail/Low Battery reporting).
Keep power-limited wiring separate from non power-limited wiring (115VAC / 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 board.
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 –].
-
When the use of standby batteries is desired, they must be lead acid or gel type.
Connect battery to the terminals marked [+ BAT –] on the board (battery leads included).
Use two (2) 12VDC batteries connected in series for 24VDC operation.
Note: When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the loss of output voltage. -
Connect appropriate signaling notification devices to AC Fail & Low battery supervisory relay outputs marked [NC, C, NO].
LED Diagnostics:
| Red (DC) | Green (AC) | Power Supply Status |
|---|---|---|
| ON | ON | Normal operating condition |
| ON | OFF | Loss of AC. Standby battery is supplying power. |
| OFF | ON | No DC output. |
| Off | Off | Loss of AC. Discharged or no standby battery. No DC output. |
Terminal Identification:
| Terminal Legend | Function/Description |
|---|---|
| AC/AC | Low voltage AC input (Voltage Output/Transformer Selection Table). |
For 12VDC output use 16VAC or higher with 85VA power rating or higher. For
24VDC output use 28VAC with 140VA power rating or higher. Caution: Do not
apply voltages above 28VAC (28VAC is maximum input rating).
+ DC –| 12VDC/24VDC @ 4A continuous output.
AC FAIL NC, C, NO| Used to notify loss of AC power, e.g. connect to audible
device or alarm panel. NC, C, NO Relay normally energized when AC power is
present.
Contact rating 1A @ 120VAC / 28VDC.
Low Battery NC, C, NO| Used to indicate low battery condition, e.g. connect to alarm panel. NC, NO, C Relay normally energized when DC power is present.
Contact rating 1A @ 120VAC / 28VDC. Low battery threshold:
12VDC output threshold set @ approximately 10.5VDC, 24VDC output threshold set
@ approximately 21VDC.
+ BAT –| Standby battery connections. Maximum charge rate 0.3A.
