Installation instructions for an enclosure that includes a mains powered CS120A Power Supply ..1 1.1 Required knowledge ................. 1 1.2 Preparation and initial checks ..............1 1.3 Wiring into the enclosure .................
The instructions below describe how to do this and precautions for the use of the system after installation. The CS120A power supply is sold as a kit that is normally fitted inside a standard Campbell Scientific environmental enclosure often with other components such as a datalogger or communications interfaces.
Fig. 1 shows a typical enclosure fitted with a similar power supply to that used for the CS120A. The supply shown is a larger, higher output unit than normally supplied, but the wiring arrangements are typical of the CS120A power supply. In the picture there is a PS200, which is being charged by the main AC supply too.
Installation Guide A clip is fitted to the chassis plate below the terminal block to allow the mains cable to be fixed with a cable tie to give some strain relief. Fig. 1. General View...

DC and 12 V DC (Fig. 3). The 24V DC from the AC fed power supply is the output used to power the hood heaters of the CS120A. The 24V supply is often also used to provide charging power to a backup power supply for the microprocessor (DSP) of the CS120A, such as a PS100 or PS200 which may be installed in the enclosure.
CS120A connected to the 12V feed for extended periods without the main supply connected otherwise the CS120A may shutdown and/or the battery in the PS100/PS200 may be damaged. Please refer to the CS120A manual for more details of the low battery shutdown settings. Fig. 3. DC Connections...
Where a logger and external connectors are fitted the cables from the external sensor may be wired directly to the logger terminals. If a single CS120A is in use the 12 and 24V power feeds may be wired directly to the connectors in the enclosure wall.
