The 8-Way AC to DC Power Supply Units can provide a 50W dc supply
or a 100W dc supply depending upon whether one or two switch mode
modules are incorporated in the power supply unit.
Similarly, the 16-Way AC to DC Power Supply Units can provide a
50W, 100W, 150W and 200W dc supplies depending upon whether
one, two, three or four switch mode modules are incorporated in the
power supply unit.
6. VENTILATION
The 5704 Control System provides the facility for a large number of
channels in a very small space. In heavily populated racks, especially
thosewithmanycatalyticinputcontrolcardsorrelaysconguredfor
normally energised operation, it is possible for the heat dissipation to
causeasignicantriseintemperaturebothwithintherackandinan
area close to the rack.
As such, careful consideration must be given to thermal planning. To
achieve most from the convection cooling, always ensure that the air
canowfreelythroughtherackandpowersupply.Donotobstructthe
air vent holes in the top and bottom of the rack and if possible space
the control cards evenly within the rack.
It is recommended that during commissioning the operating temperature
of the rack is checked to ensure that the maximum operating temperature
of 55
o
C is not exceeded. In some cases the addition of forced air
ventilation may be required.
Maximum power supply conguration allowed without provision for
additional ventilation is 100w for 8 way cabinet and 200w for 16 way
cabinet.
7. PRELIMINARIES
Ensure that each control card is compatible with the proposed sensor/
transmitter to be connected to that control card.
Ensure that where an AC to DC Power Supply Unit is to be used, this
is compatible with the local mains ac supply voltage and that the PSU
power rating is adequate for its individual system load.
Note: The model 05701-A-0405 and 05701-A-0406 AC to DC Power
Supply Units operate, without the requirement of input voltage
adjustments, from an 85V to 264V, 47Hz to 440Hz ac supply
inputs.
