Electrical requirements for the FLX-60 pixel
The power for the FLX-60 pixels is delivered by the FLX Power rectifiers DPR-2700 installed in the FLX Power Chassis DPR-2700.
One FLX Power chassis DPR-2700, fully equipped with six rectifiers each delivering 2700 watt, consumes maximum 16200 watt.
For that one FLX Power System DPR-2700 requires a nominal three phase AC input of 230V (delta connection) or 400V (star
connection), 50-60Hz.
The power cord to connect the FLX Power chassis DPR-2700 with the power net is not delivered with the FLX Power System
DPR-2700. The customer must provide the correct type of power cord. The cross-sectional area of the conductors in the power
supply cord shall not be less than 6 mm² or 8 AWG for 400V star connection (L1/L2/L3/N/PE) or 10 mm² or 6 AWG for 230V delta
connection (L1/L2/L3/PE). For more information see the installation manual included in the box of the FLX Power System DPR-2700.
All AC connections must be made per the latest issue of the National Electrical Code and must also conform to all local codes. The
AC supply must be installed by a qualified electrician in conformance to local codes. Hardware, wire sizes and conduit types must
comply with local codes. To protect operating personnel, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recommends
that the cabinet be grounded. In no event shall the FLX Power System DPR-2700 be operated without an adequate cabinet ground
connection. An AC breaker must provide adequate isolation between the FLX Power chassis DPR-2700 input and Commercial AC
Main.
The power consumption of the FLX-NNI Controller and the DX-100/DX-700 Digitizer is negligible compared to the power consump-
tion of the FLX Power System DPR-2700. One FLX-NNI Controller consumes maximum 0,5 amps at 230VAC, 50Hz (100-240VAC;
1-0,5A; 50-60Hz). One DX-100/DX-700 Digitizer consumes maximum 0,5 amps at 230VAC, 50Hz. Standard power cords with CEE
(7) VII or NEMA 5-15 plug are delivered with the FLX-NNI Controller and the DX-700 Digitizer.
The FLX system allows a physical split up of the control center, where the DX-100/DX-700 Digitizer and FLX-NNI Controller units
are located, and the power center, where the FLX Power System DPR-2700 is located. This way the length of the power cables can
be shorten to reduce the loss of voltage over the power cables. Futhermore, the heat dissipation and the noise generation of the
rectifiers can be isolated and managed in a suitable area.
