    Energy Manager Series 1.0 INTRODUCTION The ICT300DB-12IRC is a dual-feed DC power distribution unit for negative 48-volt DC applications that provides two 150 amps (continuous) bus inputs; with six independently controlled and monitored output channels each rated at 50 amps (maximum) per bus in a 2RU chassis for 19-inch rack mounting.

  • Page 11: Common Features

    Energy Manager Series 1.1 Common Features • 300 amps continuous system current rating / 150 amps per bus • Six independently controlled and monitored output channels per bus rated at 50 amps maximum each • Independent form-C alarm contacts for each bus •...

  • Page 12: Unpacking And Inspection

    Energy Manager Series • Each output load must not exceed 50 amps maximum. • Install unit in a restricted access location (such as an equipment rack) to limit unintentional contact with terminals and wiring. • Keep sources of moisture away from unit.

  • Page 13: Tools And Parts Needed

    Ferrule Terminals The ICT Miniature Circuit Breakers can accommodate up to 6 AWG wires. It is recommended to terminate the output cables with ferrule terminals to ensure ease of cable insertion as well as proper electrical contact.

    Energize the loads. 2.4 Cable Management Assembly Installation (optional) The Cable Management Assembly (ICT-CMA) can be mounted in the front or rear of the unit. Refer to the ICT-CMA user manual for more information. ICT-CMA for Output Cables ICT-CMA for Input Cables Figure 2.

  • Page 15: Ground Connection

    All DC outputs of ICT’s DC distribution systems are isolated from chassis ground (floating). DC output returns can remain isolated from ground (DC-I) or can be grounded (DC-C), as per site grounding requirements and/or local or national electrical codes.

  • Page 18: Installation Of The Breakers

    Energy Manager Series 2.11 Installation of the Breakers Risk of personal injury or damage to equipment and property. Always observe the following: • Ensure that the breakers are in the correct orientation when inserting into the breaker openings — the breaker switch must be on the bottom side of the unit as shown in Figure 4.

  • Page 19: Load Connections

    Energy Manager Series 2.12 Load Connections Risk of personal injury or damage to equipment and property. Always observe the following: • DC-AC Inverters should not be connected to the outputs of the distribution unit. DC-AC inverters create significant inrush current and may damage the circuitry or interfere with the operation of load distribution panels that they are connected to.
