5.3.1 Mount the Power Supply
The cable lengths are limited based on the operating frequency of the welding system.
Performance and results can suffer if the RF cable is crushed, pinched, damaged or
modified. Contact your Branson Representative if you have special cable requirements.
Do not place the power supply on the floor or in other locations that will allow dust, dirt or
contaminants to be drawn into the power supply.
5.3.2 Horizontal (Benchtop) Mounting
The Horizontal DCX S Power Supply is designed to be placed on a workbench (rubber feet
on bottom) within cable-length limits of the stack. It has one fan which draws cooling air
from the left side to the right side, which must be free from obstruction. The controls on
the front of the power supply should be accessible and readable for setup changes.
All electrical connections are made to the rear of the power supply, which should be
positioned in your workspace with adequate clearance, approximately 3 in (76.2 mm) or
more on either side, and 5 in (127 mm) to the rear) for cable access and ventilation. Do
not place anything on top of the power supply case.
For a dimensional drawing of the Horizontal DCX S Power Supply, see Figure 5.1 DCX S
Power Supply Benchtop Dimensional Drawing.
5.3.3 Vertical Mounting
The Vertical DCX S Power Supply is designed to be mounted vertically (from the side or
back) within cable-length limits of the stack. It has one fan which draws cooling air from
the top to the bottom of the power supply, which must be free from obstruction. The
controls on the front of the power supply should be accessible and readable for setup
changes.
All electrical connections are made to the bottom of the power supply, which should be
positioned with adequate clearance (approximately 3 in (76.2 mm) or more on the top,
and 5 in (127 mm) to the bottom) for cable access and ventilation. Do not place anything
on top of the power supply case.
For dimensional drawings of the Vertical DCX S Power Supply, see figures Figure 5.2,
Figure 5.3, and Figure 5.4.
NOTICE
Special fan filter kits are available for use in dusty environments. See
Table 8.12 Other Items used with the DCX S Power Supply.
NOTICE
Do not block exhaust and intake air circulation, which is needed to
maintain a safe operating temperature.
