24 Vdc Power Supplies Installation The power supply kit is mounted on a DIN rail inside a Campbell Scientific enclosure. Each component will snap onto the DIN rail as shown in FIGURE 5-1. All wire gauge descriptions in these instructions are for the 3.8 A NOTE and 10 A power supply kits.
24 Vdc Power Supplies 1. FIGURE 5-2 shows the components of the kit mounted on a DIN rail. From left to right, these include a 3-tier grounding terminal block, a ground terminal block, a neutral terminal block, a line terminal block, the circuit breaker, and the 3.8 A power supply.
24 Vdc Power Supplies 2. Connect a black 14 AWG wire between the bottom of the breaker and the L (+) terminal on the power supply (FIGURE 5-3). FIGURE 5-3. Connecting the L terminal to the circuit breaker 3. Connect a black 14 AWG wire between the top of the breaker and the L terminal block (FIGURE 5-4).
24 Vdc Power Supplies 4. Connect a white 14 AWG wire between the N terminal block and the N(–) terminal on the power supply (FIGURE 5-5). FIGURE 5-5. Connecting the N terminal block to the power supply...
24 Vdc Power Supplies 5. Connect the 3-tier ground terminal block to the datalogger (not included) ground point using a green/yellow 14 AWG ground wire (FIGURE 5-6). The remaining points on the terminal block are intended for additional accessories with ground lugs, such as the AVW200 or the SDM-CD8. FIGURE 5-6.
24 Vdc Power Supplies 6. Connect the bottom-side of the 3-tier grounding terminal to the enclosure ground lug (FIGURE 5-7). FIGURE 5-7. Connecting the 3-tier ground terminal block to the enclosure ground lug...
24 Vdc Power Supplies 7. Use the included 16 AWG red and black wires to connect the output (+) and (–) terminals of the power supply to the two (2) CHG inputs on the CH150, or CH200 (not included in the kit). See FIGURE 5-8. Use the red wire for the + terminal and the black wire for the –...
24 Vdc Power Supplies 8. Use 16 AWG red and black wires to connect the CH150 or CH200 +12 and G terminals to the G and 12V on the datalogger (FIGURE 5-9). Use the red wire for the 12V terminals and the black wire for the G terminals. FIGURE 5-9.
24 Vdc Power Supplies 9. FIGURE 5-10 shows an overview of the complete 10 amp kit Campbell Scientific pn 28371. The CR800 and CH100 are not included in the kit. The 10 A power supply has a ground terminal, and requires a 14 AWG green wire to be connected between the ground terminal on the power supply and the G (green) terminal block as shown.
24 Vdc Power Supplies 10. FIGURE 5-11 shows an overview of the complete 20 amp kit Campbell Scientific pn 28372. The CR800 and CH100 are not included in the kit. The 20 A power supply has a ground terminal, and requires a 14 AWG green wire to be connected between the ground terminal on the power supply and the G (green) terminal block as shown.
