Connecting
Note: To disconnect the DC Power cable, gently push forward on the lock ring, twist it 1/4
turn counterclockwise, and then pull to remove.

If connecting a Firestar f400 dual-tube laser, repeat steps 1–9 for the second DC Power
cable. Plug this cable into the other DC POWER connector on the f400 rear panel.
PS-96 AC input section
Three-phase operation
(recommended)
SYNRAD’s PS-96 DC power supply is capable of supplying 96 VDC at 47 amperes maximum.
Three-phase AC input power requirements for the PS-96 supply are 105–264 VAC, 3Ø (three
phase with ground phase to phase), 23 A maximum per phase, 47–63 Hz. Table 1-4 provides
recommendations for three-phase input wiring and fusing.
Table 1-4 Three-phase AC electrical recommendations
Parameter Recommendation
Input voltage 105–264 VAC, 3Ø
Input current, max. 23 Amperes (per phase)
Wire gauge 10 AWG
Fuse/circuit breaker 30 Amps
To connect three-phase AC input power to the PS-96 power supply, refer back to Figure 1-14
and perform the following steps:
Note: Because AC input connections and requirements vary from facility to facility, custom-
ers must provide the AC power cable or wiring.
1
Follow your facility’s Lockout/Tagout procedures and verify that input AC power to the
DC power supply is physically locked out or disconnected.
2
Connect the safety ground (earth) wire, typically green, to the input terminal labeled
“GND”.
3
Connect the rst AC three-phase hot wire, typically black, to the input terminal labeled
“L1/L”.
4
Connect the second three-phase hot wire, typically red, to the input terminal labeled
“L2/L”.
All AC input wiring and fusing to the DC power supply must be
sized and connected in accordance with applicable local, state, and
national requirements.
Local, state, and national code requirements (like NEC, CSA, and
IEC 60364) supersede any recommendations provided in this manual.
