Page 7: Back-Up Battery
2.2. Back-up Battery An external lead-acid battery with the same nominal voltage as the power supply may be connected directly in parallel with the output terminals, or to the +BAT terminal (on units with the LVD option “B”) to provide a DC backup capability. Use appropriate wire, over current protection and disconnect device as outlined in the Installation section. -
Page 8: Installation
2.3. Installation The ICT Platinum Series Power Supply is designed to be used in an industry standard 19” rack mount cabinet or other restricted access location. Insert the unit at the desired rack height, and secure using four standard rack nuts and bolts (not provided). - Page 9 CAUTION! The internal LVD contactor ties the “+BAT” terminal to the power supply “POS” output. When using the LVD option in a positive ground system do not ground the positive terminal of the battery. The system must only have a single ground connection, normally located at the distribution or load point.

The Range of the Reconnect Voltage is 11.5 - 13.0V. (12V model). The battery will automatically be reconnected after an AC power failure to ensure the battery quickly recharges.
- Page 17 Configure the Battery Equalize Charge voltage, duration, and automatic repeat interval if desired when using flooded lead- acid type batteries only. The system will step up the output voltage to the Equalize Voltage for the Equalize Duration time whenever the Equalize Status is set to Enable (or automatically each interval time when an Interval is set) once the battery is fully charged.
- Page 18 Discharge Test Configure the Battery Discharge Test to check on the battery’s ability to power the system for a set duration. Set Max Discharge Time and minimum Discharge Voltage Limit. Each time the test is run the output voltage from the power supply will be reduced so that the external battery will power the system load until either the Max Discharge Time limit or the minimum Discharge Voltage Limit is hit.
- Page 19 PARALLEL STATUS SCREEN The Parallel Status screen shows the currently configured Parallel settings. If parallel operation is active, the status and total number of parallel units is displayed on this screen. Up to 6 Units can be connected in parallel. See the Smart Parallel Operation section for more information on configuring the parallel settings.
- Page 20 ALARM HISTORY SCREEN Scroll through the Alarm History screens to see the log of the 20 most recent alarm events. Shows the alarm description, date, and time when set, and cleared. Note: The system date and time are normally set by the network. These may be manually set, see Network GUI Operation, Communication Basic Setup section.

Page 23: Smart Parallel Operation
4. SMART PARALLEL OPERATION If your load requires more power than can be supplied by a single ICT Platinum Series power supply, two or more power supplies (maximum 6) of the same output voltage rating can be connected in parallel in a Primary-Secondary configuration to increase the power available, using the SHARE ports on the back of the units. -
Page 24: Share Interface Connector
4.1. SHARE Interface Connector The RJ-11 connectors for the RS485 serial interface are located on the back of the power supply and are labeled SHARE “A” and “B”. See figure 3. Parallel units must be connected together in a daisy- chain manner with a RJ-11 four-wire straight-through cable. -
Page 25: Connecting The Power Supplies In Parallel
NOTE: Although not recommended, it is possible to connect up to six Platinum Series power supplies in parallel without using the Smart Parallel feature. It is important that the parallel-connected power supplies generally share the load equally. In order to achieve this, the size and length of the connecting wires should be sized appropriately and of the same gauge, and the wire lengths between the power supplies should be virtually identical. - Page 26 1. After configuring each power supply for parallel operation, turn the Power Switch on all units to the OFF position. 2. Connect the positive terminals (labeled “POS”) of each unit together at a common positive load point using the optional ICT- PAR parallel straps (shown above).

5. TCP/IP WEB BASED UTILITY Use the embedded Web server via an Ethernet connection to monitor the status of the power supply, and change the power supply’s settings and configuration when the unit is powered from the AC line or an external back-up battery. The embedded Web server provides a full featured interface to the power supply that can be easily accessed through a standard Web browser on any network-connected computer. - Page 30 3.

Auto-Restart Delay: Set delay time (5 to 240s) that output will remain off when output is remotely disabled using the Auto-Restart button. The unit will then automatically restart after the Restart Delay period. 5.2. Battery Backup Select the Battery Backup page (STATUS tab) on units with the optional Battery/LVD port (SBC suffix units) to observe the status of the external battery. - Page 33 Equalize Charge: Adjust the various Equalize Charge settings to either manually or automatically apply a high Equalize voltage to a fully charged flooded-lead-acid battery for a set time duration as recommended by the battery manufacturer. This will help force an equal state of charge on all battery cells, and help prevent stratification of the battery electrolyte.
