IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
The powerPac should be supplied only by a power source of the type indicated on its label. A socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. The unit should only
be used with a suitably rated mains cord and appropriate IEC320 type connector, sourced by the end user, and in accordance with the requirements of Table 3B of IEC60950-1 (latest edition). If in
doubt, contact Excelsys Engineering Department for assistance. For installations in accordance with EN60601-1, UL2601-1, the Neutral input supply lead must be provided with a suitable fuse pro-
tection device. See the Fuse table below for details. When adding or removing powerMods from the powerPac, care must be taken to handle the powerMods by the output terminals ONLY, ensur-
ing that all other surface mount components are not unduly damaged.
When securing the product, do not use screws which infringe the maximum penetration depth of 6mm. Customer fixings are provided on the base of the unit in addition to the Excelsys 'fleximount'
system which allows the unit to be mounted on either side of the powerPac chassis. The Xgen series of power supplies have integral fans and may be mounted in any orientation provided that the
air intake and air outlet areas are not impeded with particular regard paid to provide ventilation holes in any chassis on which or near which the unit is mounted. AFTER DISCONNECTING THE AC
SOURCE, ALLOW 4 MINUTES BEFORE DISASSEMBLY TO ALLOW CAPACITORS WITHIN THE UNIT TO DISCHARGE.

OUTPUT SPECIFICATIONS (powerMod only)
See powerMod table below, with more detail in Designers' Manual.
Each module may be adjusted over the full voltage range shown in
the table subject to not exceeding the maximum rated Voltage
and Power shown on the table.
SAFETY
The Xgen, when correctly installed in a limited access environment
are designed to comply with the following requirements
Xlite, Xcite, Xhite, Xqite, Xkite : IEC60950, EN60950, UL1950, CSA
22.2 No. 234 and IEC61010
Xmite, Xvite, Xzite, Xrite: EN60601-1, UL2601-1 and CSA 22.2-601-
1 and EN61010
For current approval status, please contact Excelsys Sales.
Equipment manufacturers must protect service personnel against
inadvertent contact with the module output terminals.

Earth Terminal Marking IMPORTANT
6.25 x 32mm
If in the end use equipment the incoming mains cable earth wire
6.25 x 32mm
connects directly to the "GND" connection Xgen without being inter-
rupted or junctioned on its way to that connection, then this connec-
6.25 x 32mm
tion forms the main protective earth of the system. To comply with
IEC60950, EN60950, UL1950 requirements and to comply with
EN60601-1, UL2601-1, CSA22.2-601-1 requirements then this must
be marked with the symbol defined in the IEC417 No. 5019a. The
customer should therefore affix an adhesive label which will pass
the 15 Second rub test (IEC60950 section 1.7.15) showing the sym-
bol here adjacent to the earth connection. This symbol must only be
used at the first interruption / connection of the incoming earth wire.
Health And Safety At Work Act (UK only)
To protect service personnel and users and to comply with section 6
of the Health And Safety Acts, a clearly visible label should be fitted
warning that surfaces of these units may be hot and must not be
touched when the units are in operation.
Receipt And Unpacking
On receipt a unit should be unpacked carefully and checked for tran-
sit damage. If the unit is damaged, do not apply power or install the
unit. SEEK SPECIALIST ADVICE!
Warranty
Warranty conditions are contained in our standard terms and condi-
tions. Contact your authorised outlet for repair.

HIGH VOLTAGE WARNING!
Dangerous voltages are present within these
power supplies. These products should only be
worked on by qualified personnel.
Xgen Series products are designed for use within other equipment or
enclosures, which restrict access to authorised competent personnel
only. The unit covers are designed only to protect skilled personnel from
hazards. They must not be used as part of the external covers of any
equipment where they may be accessible to operators, since, under full
load conditions, part or parts of the unit may reach temperatures in excess
of those considered safe for operator access.
Open Collector signal indicators.
Reverse Fan (Option 02)
Reverse direction of air flow through the Xgen.

powerMod maximum power ratings must not be exceeded
Permitted Power Ratings for Reliable Operation.
When specifying an Xgen in an application, it is necessary to ensure
that the powerPacs and powerMods are operating within their power
ratings as listed above, taking care to factor in the appropriate der-
ating if the ambient temperature exceeds 40° C (except for Xhite
models).

UNUSED SLOTS MUST ALWAYS BE FITTED WITH APPROPRI-
ATE SLOT COVERS XB1,XB2 or XB3. Units must NOT be operat-
