Installation Instructions

Unit shall be installed in accordance with The National Electrical Code and all applicable Local Regulations.

  1. Remove backplane from enclosure prior to mounting (do not discard hardware).

  2.  Mark and drill desired inlets on the enclosure to facilitate wiring (Fig. 2, pg. 4).
    Note: Inlets for conduit fittings should only be made on the bottom of the enclosure. UL Listed NEMA type 4X rated conduit connector/hubs shall be used for the appropriate size inlets.

  3. Mount unit in the desired location. For wall mounting refer to Fig. 4, pg. 7.
    For pole mounting installation refer to pg. 7 – Pole Mounting Using Optional Pole Mount Kit PMK1.

  4. Mount backplane to enclosure with hardware.

  5. To facilitate wire entry utilize weather-tight NEMA 4 rated connectors, bushings, and cable.

  6. Connect unswitched AC power (120VAC, 60 Hz) to terminals marked [L, N] (Fig. 3, pg. 5). Green branch wire connects to earth (safety) ground lug . Wire gauge range of connectors is 14 AWG to 11 AWG (1.6mm to 2.5mm diameter).

  7. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage.

  8. Connect devices to be powered to terminals marked [– DC +] (Fig. 1h, pg. 4). For auxiliary device connection this output will not be affected by Low Power Disconnect or Output Disconnect. Connect device to terminals marked [+ AUX –] (Fig. 1f, pg. 4).

  9. For Access Control applications batteries are optional. When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the loss of the output voltage. When the use of stand-by batteries is desired, they must be lead acid or gel type. Connect battery to terminals marked [– BAT +] (Fig. 1g, pg. 4). Use batteries – Casil CL1270 (12V/7AH) batteries or UL recognized BAZR2 batteries of an appropriate rating.

  10. Connect appropriate signaling notification devices to AC FAIL & BAT FAIL (Fig. 1b, pg. 4) supervisory relay outputs.

  11. To delay AC reporting for 2 hrs. set DIP switch [AC Delay] to OFF position (Fig. 1c, pg. 4).
    To delay AC reporting for 1 min. set DIP switch [AC Delay] to ON position (Fig. 1c, pg. 4).

  12. To enable Output Disconnect set DIP switch [Shutdown] to ON position (Fig. 1c, pg. 4).
    To disable Output Disconnect set DIP switch [Shutdown] to OFF position (Fig. 1c, pg. 4).

  13. Trigger terminals are end of a line resistor supervised (10k ohms). Opening or shorting trigger terminals will cause [DC] output to shutdown (Fig. 1d, pg. 4).

  14. Place a jumper for non-latching output. A momentary short on these terminals resets output latching [Trigger EOL Shutdown] (Fig. 1e, pg. 4).

  15. Upon completion of wiring secure enclosure door with latches and optional lock.

WARNING: When installing in a non-restricted service area use lock or other fastened means on door latches. This installation should be made by qualified service personnel and should conform to the National Electrical Code and all local codes.

Pole Mounting Using Optional Pole Mount Kit PMK1 (not included):

This installation should be made by qualified service personnel. This product contains no serviceable parts. PMK1 is intended for use with Altronix outdoor rated power supplies or accessories housed in WP1, WP3 and WP4 enclosures. Brackets are designed for use with the Wormgear Quick Release Straps (two included).

  1. Thread one (1) wormgear quick release strap through the slots on the back of a mounting bracket (Fig. 5, pg. 7).

  2.  Once the desired height of the top Pole Mount bracket is achieved, tighten the straps down by sliding open end of the strap through the locking mechanism on the strap, then tighten the screw with flat head screwdriver or 5/16” hex socket driver (Fig. 6, pg. 7 and Fig. 8, pg. 7).
