WARNING

Do not connect equipment that requires 230Vac to operate to the PowerXchanger® which provides 120 Vac output.
Some devices such as hair dryers use a half sine wave rectifier to reduce the blower speed. PowerXchanger will shut down and only operate at full speed.
To comply with international standards, the sum of earth leakage current from the load connected to the PowerXchanger® must not exceed 1.5 mA.

120V 60Hz AC Power Converter PowerXchanger®

Introduction

The PowerXchanger® incorporates the most advanced double-converter technology to receive power of varying voltages and frequencies from the grid and provide a stable output sine-wave voltage at 60Hz frequency enabling the user’s equipment to be plugged in to the PowerXchanger and receive stable 120V/60Hz power. The double-converter principle eliminates power spikes, surges or voltage sag that might occur in the grid power. A PFC rectifier is incorporated to improve conversion efficiency.

The PowerXchanger® conforms to the following standards and guidelines:

Output Overload Alarm

All PowerXchanger® products include an overload alarm system. If the output current drawn by the load exceeds the PowerXchanger’s over-current-alarm threshold (See “Overcurrent Protection Alarm Threshold” above) the LED will blink every four seconds*. If the overload continues for more than one minute an audible alarm will sound so long as the overload is present. If the overload alarm continues for more than one minute, the Xchanger® will turn off. After a 30 second delay, the Xchanger® will turn on again.

Output Overload Protection

If the output of the PowerXchanger® load exceeds the output overload protection threshold for more than two seconds, the Xchanger® turns off, sounds an audible alarm, and the LED begins blinking every four seconds*. After a 30 second delay, the Xchanger® will turn on again. If the overload is no longer present, the audible alarm will stop, the LED will stop blinking, and the Xchanger® will operate normally. If the overload is still present, the Xchanger® will once again turn off and wait 30 seconds before attempting to start again.

120V 60Hz AC Power Converter PowerXchanger®

Output Short Circuit Protection

If the PowerXchanger® detects that the output voltage is 60VAC or less for at least 250ms indicating that the output is short circuited or extremely overloaded, the Xchanger® will shut down for 30 seconds and then attempt to restart. If the short circuit or overload conditions still exist, the Xchanger® will repeat the attempt to restart up to 30 times. If the short circuit or overload persists after 30 attempts, the PowerXchanger® shuts down and latches off.

To restore the PowerXchanger® to operation, remove the load which is the cause of the output short circuit or extreme overload, unplug the unit, wait 5 seconds, and then plug the unit back into the wall outlet

Thermal Protection

If the PowerXchanger® detects an overheating condition, a sequence of 3 beeps every 2 seconds will sound.

If the Xchanger continues to overheat, it will eventually turn itself off to protect itself from damage. Once the PowerXchanger has cooled off sufficiently, it will automatically restart.

Note 1: For example, at 50 °C ambient temperature, the maximum average output power of the X-10 is 900 W. The calculation is: 1200 W – 30 W/°C × (50 °C – 40 °C) = 1200 W – 300 W = 900 W

Dust and Moisture Resistance

The electronics of the PowerXchanger® Slimline Series are sealed to protect against the intrusion of dust and moisture, and are rated IP52 (protected against intrusion of dust and water when tilted at an angle up to 15°).

Cooling

This unit is designed to operate with natural convection cooling.

120V 60Hz AC Power Converter PowerXchanger®

Functional Description

A PFC rectifier converts the variable input VAC to 400 VDC. The 400VDC is divided into 2 series connected direct voltage, 0V/200V/400V. A voltage balancing circuit is used to prevent damage that might otherwise be cause by abnormal voltages. From these DC voltages; an AC output circuit generates a sinusoidal AC voltage to supply power to the connected load. Two LC filters switch automatically to maintain the high efficiency regardless of the connected load level.

XS-05GA LED Location

120V 60Hz AC Power Converter PowerXchanger®

Selecting the Optimal Location for Desktop or Wall Mount Installation

The XS-05GA can be mounted on a wall or on the back of a compatible appliance (must be installed by a licensed electrician).

Consider the Following When Selecting a Location for Use:

– Indoor Installation Only

– Select a well-ventilated and cool area. PowerXchangers have sealed electronics and cool only with natural ventilation. This has the benefit that they are not susceptible to dust and humidity and operates silently, since they have no internal fans

– Do not place or install in an airtight closet or cabinet

– Avoid direct sunlight. Direct sunlight will increase the surface temperature

Additionally, Consider the Following When Selecting a Location for Wall Mounting

– Do not mount the PowerXchanger on flammable construction material.

– Mount on solid surface

– For proper air circulation and heat dissipation, allow a clearance of 20 cm on the sides and 50 cm above and below the unit

– The ambient temperature should be between 0°C and 40°C to ensure optimal operation, over this range will reduce the average output power for thermal de-rating.

120V 60Hz AC Power Converter PowerXchanger®

Mounting the Unit

Installation to the wall should be implemented with the proper screws. Mount the wall bracket so that the PowerXchanger® can be easily attached to the wall. After that, the device should be bolted on securely.

1. Drill four or eight holes in the marked locations and fix the bracket with screws.

2. Slide the unit into the bracket slowly and check if it is firmly secured.
