Selecting A Power Source; Installation; Mounting The Device - Taco UCP-1 Application Manual

iWorx® PSU1
If the equipment is to be installed outdoors, it must be contained within a protective enclosure. The enclosure must
maintain internal temperature and humidity within the ranges specified for this equipment.
The equipment must be installed within 500 feet of all input peripherals (smoke detectors, sensors, etc.) that are con-
nected to the equipment.

Selecting a Power Source

This equipment requires a UL recognized Class 2 external power source (not supplied) to operate. The controller
power input requires a voltage of 24 Volts AC.
To calculate power source current requirements, add the power consumption of all peripheral devices to that of the
controller.
The controller and sensor power supplies can use the same power source. If both are using the same power source,
the loads must have EMF protection. This protection can be integral to the load, or installed in the 24 VAC wiring across
the load's coil.
To provide necessary RFI and transient protection, the controller's ground (GND) pin (T40) must be connected to earth
ground or the earth ground of the packaged unit's enclosure ground. Failure to properly ground the controller may
cause it to exceed FCC limits. Excessive noise could also produce inaccurate sensor data. The power source must be
capable of operating with this connection to ground.

INSTALLATION

Warning: Electrical shock hazard. To prevent electrical shock or equipment damage, disconnect ALL
power sources to controllers and loads before installing or servicing this equipment or modifying any wir-
ing.

Mounting the Device

1.Select a mounting location. Enclosure mounting is recommended.
2.Hold the controller on the panel you wish to mount it on. With a marker or pencil mark the mounting locations on
the panel.
3.Using a small drill bit pre-drill the mounting holes.
4.Using two #6 pan head screws, mount the controller to the panel.
5.Wire the controller (See Routing Cabling to the Device).
