Installation Site Install the unit in a place where the following conditions are met: The temperature and the relative humidity of the operating environment must be within the specified limits during operation of the unit. Values specified are applicable to the air inlets of the unit. Condensation may not be present during operation. If the unit is installed in a location subject to large variations of ambient temperature (e.g. in an OB‐van), appropriate precautions must be taken. Unobstructed airflow is essential for proper operation. Ventilation openings of the unit are a functional part of the design and must not be obstructed in any way during operation (e.g. ‐ by objects placed upon them, placement of the unit on a soft surface, or improper installation of the unit within a rack or piece of furniture). The unit must not be unduly exposed to external heat sources (direct sunlight, spot lights). Ambient Temperature Units and systems by FiberPlex are generally designed for an ambient temperature range (i.e. temperature of the incoming air) of +5...+40 °C. When rack mounting the units, the following facts must be considered: The permissible ambient temperature range for operation of the semiconductor components is 0 °C to +70 °C (commercial temperature range for operation). The airflow through the installation must allow exhaust air to remain cooler than 70 °C at all times. Average temperature increase of the cooling air shall be about 20 C°, allowing for an additional maximum 10 C° increase at the hottest components. If the cooling function of the installation must be monitored (e.g. for fan failure or illumination with spot lamps), the exhaust air temperature must be measured directly above the modules at several places within the enclosure. Grounding and Power Supply Grounding of units with mains supply (class I equipment) is performed via the protective earth (PE) conductor integrated in a NEMA 5‐15P connector. Units with battery operation (< 60 V, class III equipment) must be earthed using the 3 pin Phoenix connector. Grounding the unit is one of the measures for protection against electrical shock hazard (dangerous body currents). Hazardous voltage may not only be caused by defective power supply insulation, but may also be introduced by the connected audio or control cables. This equipment may require the use of a different line cord, attachment plug, or both, depending on the available power source at installation. If the attachment plug needs to be changed, refer servicing to qualified personnel. ...
Warranty, Service and Terms and Conditions of Sale For information about Warranty or Service information, please see our published ‘Terms and Conditions of Sale’. This document is available on fiberplex.com or can be obtained by requesting it from clients@fiberplex.com or calling 301.604.0100. Disposal Disposal of Packing Materials The packing materials have been selected with environmental and disposal issues in mind. All packing material can be recycled. Recycling packing saves raw materials and reduces the volume of waste. If you need to dispose of the transport packing materials, recycling is encouraged. Disposal of Used Equipment Used equipment contains valuable raw materials as well as substances that must be disposed of professionally. Please dispose of used equipment via an authorized specialist dealer or via the public waste disposal system, ensuring any material that can be recycled has been. Please take care that your used equipment cannot be abused. After having disconnected your used equipment from the mains supply, make sure that the mains connector and the mains cable are made useless. Disclaimer The information in this document has been carefully checked and is believed to be accurate at the time of publication. However, no liability is assumed by FiberPlex for inaccuracies, errors, or omissions, nor for loss or damage resulting either directly or indirectly from use of the information contained herein. Introduction The PSQ‐2909, PSQ‐3909 and PSQ‐4909 are compact AC power supplies that attach to and provide operating voltage for FiberPlex’s FOI series isolators. The PSQ‐2920, PSQ‐3920 and PSQ‐4920 are compact low voltage power supplies that attach to and provide operating voltage for FiberPlex’s FOI series isolators. They can power the FiberPlex FOI units with a 12‐48 VDC (or 10‐32 VAC) external supply. These Low Voltage power supplies are not polarity sensitive; V+ and V‐ may be reversed for DC inputs. They are equipped with a resettable fuse to protect both the supply and the FOI. Getting Started Initial Inspection Immediately upon receipt, inspect the shipping container for damage. The container should be retained until the shipment has been checked for completeness and the equipment has been checked mechanically and electrically. If the shipment is incomplete, if there is mechanical damage, or if the unit fails to operate notify FiberPlex and make the shipping materials available for the carrier's inspection. ...
Start the captive screws into the FOI face. Do not tighten completely until both are threaded. Tighten snugly the captive screws, evenly, drawing the faces together. The mounting face of the FOI should be in uniform contact with the face of the PSQ. Figure 1 PSQ Installation Note: The PSQ‐4909 is shown. The PSQ‐2920, PSQ‐3920 and PSQ‐4920 Low Voltage power supplies do not have the AC adapter cable. Compatibility The PSQ series power supplies are compatible with all FOI and FIS style Fiber Optic Isolators. The table below shows compatibility. See the specifications section in the user manual of your FOI to determine the Size of the FOI.

Other Considerations TEMPEST Support TEMPEST is a US Government specification and NATO certification intended to protect valuable and mission critical information from being intercepted through leaking emanations, including unintentional radio or electrical signals, sounds, and vibrations. The protection efforts are also known as emission security (EMSEC), which is a subset of communications security (COMSEC). Several FiberPlex Technologies FOI units have a variant designated with a ‘T‐ST’ suffix, which has been rigorously designed and tested to comply with TEMPEST requirements. These units can easily be visually identified by their silver finish. An RFI suppressed version of the PSQ‐4909 AC power supplies have been tested with the TEMPEST FOI units and should be used with those units as part of a complete, certified TEMPEST solution. This version can be ordered using an ‘R’ suffix after the model number (PSQ‐4909‐R). When using TEMPEST rated FOI, much care must be taken in both the mating equipment and especially the copper cabling used in such connection. In addition, the power supplies and/or chassis being uses must have an ‘R’ suffix. For standalone applications, use a PSQ‐4909‐R (or the older PSQ‐4910‐R) power supply or for a chassis mounted solution use either an RMC‐3101‐R or RMC‐2101‐R chassis. All the items in the system must be TEMPEST compliant for the system to properly protect the information.
