In some as part of an integrated system with the PFM-400 refer to the manual cases linear power supplies (also available from NEWMAR) should be which comes with that unit for all d.c. wiring instructions and functional considered, as they emit lower EMI (although they are more susceptible to “brown-outs”...
A) Materials Provided input select switch located on the left hand side of the PM into the proper position. Positions are identified on the switch. Use a small screwdriver to slide the switch into position. No adjustment is necessary for either 50 or Prior to installation, check to ensure that each of the following items have 60 Hz input.
Model Minimum Wire Size per N.E.C. AWG (mm) PM-48-10 #16 (2 mm) PM-24-20, PM-48-18 #14 (2.5 mm) (-) Negative to Load PM-12-40, PM-12-45, PM-24-35 #8 (10 mm) BATTERY or Distribution Panel PM-12-70 #6 (16 mm) To minimize line loss at lengths greater than 5 feet, it is recommended to increase wire size one gauge for each additional 5 feet of cable run.
E) Parallel Wiring FIGURE 9: Parallel (two to six Power Modules) and N+1 redundancy, negative ground The internal oring/isolation diode of the PM allows parallel n+1 redundant wiring with no modification or other external isolation de vices required. Figures 9-10 on the following page illustrate some typical parallel wiring schemes.
The PM is rated for continuous duty at the current mating board connector. level indicated by model number, e.g., PM-12-40 is rated at 40 amps con- 5. When installing replacement fan: tinuous duty. To prevent overload when recharging severely discharged A.
D) Remote Shutdown A color-coded wire “pigtail” with keyed plug is provided for wiring convenience and to assure proper connections. The plug holds three wires for the output fail relay. Remote shutdown of the PM via TTL signal is an option that can be wired in at the time of installation.
† For parallel configuration/load sharing derate output 10% * With three-stage charger function board installed; for parallel charging A DC wiring harness quick connect kit is available from NEWMAR which multiply A/H capacity by number of units simplifies parallel wiring installation of multiple Power Modules with the Power Function Manager and facilitates “hot change-out”...
