Mains Distro Low Voltage

For territories with lower mains voltage supplies below 200V AC, a high current mains distro is available. All MLA products have
switch mode power supplies so they can be used at any mains voltage anywhere in the world however the lower the mains
voltage the higher the current draw for consistent power output therefore the distro is required to cater for a much higher
current draw.
The low voltage distro is very different from the high voltage version. It is no longer a 19"rack mount unit but is built into a
flightcased rack. The distro takes up 12U of rack space in the flightcase leaving 4U free for the Merlin and network products. It
has a capacity that matches a high voltage system with two distros installed in a rack.
Mains inlet is via 200A Camlok connectors with parallel outlets immediately above each connection. There are fused indicator
lights for each of the three phases.
Above the inlet panel is the first of two outlet panels each of which has a 19-pin Tourmate at either end with twelve 20A RCD
breakers. The top outlet panel is labelled 1 to 12, the second panel 13 to 24. Wiring for the Tourmate connectors is identical to
the high voltage distro.
There is an additional 1U breaker panel with a single 20A RCD which feeds rear panel mounted Edison connectors to power the
Merlin and network products.
