Power On
PS OK On
PS OK Off| The power supply module is powered on and running well and supplying power to the device.
Power On
Fault On
PS OK Off| The circuit has faults, such as output over-voltage1, output under- voltage, output over-current1, output short circuit, hot-swap control failure2, or fan fault3.
Power Off
PS OK OFF
Fault OFF| Power off or power supply fault.

Note:

The failure of output over-voltage or over-current may cause the power LED to flash.
Hot-swap control function will be checked when the module is powered on but has not been inserted into the device. If the Fault LED is on under this condition, please do not insert the module into the device, otherwise, the power supply module or the powered devices may be damaged.
There is still a power supply when a fan fault occurs, do not touch the module.

Description

---|---
Protection Function| Includes protection of output over-voltage, output under- voltage, output short circuit, and output over-current.
Redundant Backup| Supports dual power modules combined in parallel to implement 1+1 redundancy for uninterruptible power supply.
Hot Swappable| In the case of a 1+1 redundant power supply system, the power supply module can be plugged out or plugged in without shutting down the OLT.

When the power module reverts to the protected state, its recovery features are as follows.

Safety Information
To avoid damage to the power supply module and the equipment and bodily injury, the product can only be used by instructed persons.

Please observe the following notes:

When you install and remove the power supply module, please wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, and make sure that it has good skin contact and is well-grounded.
Before installing the power supply module, make sure that the voltage of the external power supply system is the same as the voltage marked in the power supply module, and the output voltage of the power supply module is the same as the required voltage of the powered devices in order to prevent damaging the power supply module or the powered devices.
Do not touch any exposed wires or terminals to avoid bodily injury.
Do not place the power module in a humid place or let the liquid into the power supply module.
If there is a failure inside the module, please contact service personnel, instead of opening the housing of the module.
For PSM150-DC, the rating of the external overcurrent protective device shall not exceed 16 A.
For PSM150-DC, an all-pole mains switch in accordance with EN 62368-1 2014 Annex L shall be incorporated in the electrical installation of the building. And the disconnect device shall have a contact separation of at least 1.5 mm.
The equipment must not be used in locations where children are likely to be present.

Tools for Installation

Straight screwdriver
Philips screwdriver
ESD-preventive wrist strap

Install the Power Supply Module

Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, and make sure that it has good skin contact and is well-grounded.
Grip the handle of the module with one hand, and hold the bottom of the module using your other hand. Gently push the module in along the slot guide rail.
Tighten the captive screws with a Phillips screwdriver to fix the power supply module in place.

PSM150-AC: Connect the Power Cord and Connect to the Ground

After the power supply module is installed on the device, please plug the female connector of the provided power cord into the power socket of the device, and the male connector into a power outlet. Meanwhile, it will connect to the ground via the power supply.

PSM150-DC:
Connect the Power Cord and Connect to the Ground

Connect the power cord
It is recommended to use an 18-14 AWG power cord to connect the power supply equipment and PSM150-DC and make sure that the connection is reliable. When connecting, make sure that the positive and negative poles of the power supply equipment correspond to the positive and negative poles of the PSM150-DC.
Connect to the ground
In different environments, the device may be grounded differently. The following will instruct you to connect the device to the ground in two ways.
Note that the protective earthing terminal must be connected to the installation protective earthing conductor.

• Use the grounding bar

If the device is installed in the Equipment Room, where a grounding bar is available, it is recommended to connect the device to the grounding bar with an 18-14 AWG ground cable as shown in the following figure.

• Equipotential bonding

Equipotential bonding is the practice of intentionally electrically connecting all earthed systems to the same grounding grid or connecting the grounding grids of all the earthed systems together through the ground or overground metal so as to create an earthed equipotential zone. When lightning occurs, the high voltage produced by lightning current n all systems will meanwhile exist in their ground cables, and thus all ground cables have the same electrical potential and basically eliminate the electric strikes between the systems. The figure below illustrates how to practice equipotential bonding in a network.

Remove the Power Supply Module

Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, and make sure that it has good skin contact and is well-grounded.
Remove the power cord from the external power supply system and the power module.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the captive screws at both sides of the power supply module until all spring pressure is released.
Pull the handle with one hand along the guide rails, and hold the bottom of the module using your other hand, until it completely comes out of the chassis.

Note:
When installing or removing a power supply module, pay attention to the following points:

Make sure that the power supply module is set correctly in the operation of installation.
Do not use too much force in the installation. If resistance is encountered or positions of the power supply module appear larger during installation, you must first remove the module and then reinstall the module.
If screws cannot be tightened, it may be due to the power supply module is not installed properly. Please check carefully.
In order to better protect the power supply module during removal, it is recommended that you package it in an antistatic bag.
