Overview of AQD5B Series Power Module

The Securitron AccuPower AQD5 offers clean, steady and accurate power output for peak performance of access control equipment plus flexibility unmatched by any power supply/battery charger on the market today.

• Universal AC input with brownout tolerance to 60VAC
• Tolerates and protects against input voltage fluctuations.
• External LED AC power indicator
• Form " C" contact for AC power fail notification
• Class 2 Power Limited DC output
• Dedicated voltage for battery charging even under full load
• Low battery disconnect prevents deep discharge of batteries
• PTC protection for Thermal Runaway and Current Overload Short Circuit and Reverse Battery protection will auto restart without removing load.

AQD5B and AQD5 provide a single Class 2 power limited output. The output can be divided into additional channels using any of the optional power distribution boards: PDB4, PDB8, PDB-8F8R, PDB-8C8R, PDB-8C1R or PDB-1R.

Applications

The AQD5 Series can be used with electrified access control equipment in conjunction with access control systems and fire/burglary systems including most electrified locking hardware and latches, card readers, keypads, electric strikes, REX and motion detectors and more.

Pre-Installation Survey

Before installing the AQD5 Series, the mounting location should be determined and assessed for the following:

• Availability of AC power service
• Protection from vandalism and tampering
• Sufficient clearance for air circulation and heat dispersal

CAUTION: Check with your local code inspectors to ensure your compliance with the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70), (Canadian Electrical Code for Canada) or equivalent and any additional licensing and wiring requirements for your jurisdiction.

A. Installing the Power Module

1. Select mounting location so that AC input conduit can be aligned to maintain separation with DC power outputs.

Ensure unit is mounted with sufficient airflow to prevent heat buildup.

IMPORTANT: AC Power input is not power limited. AC lines must be enclosed in approved conduit. AC Input lines must be separated by at least ¼" from Class 2 power limited output wires.

Mark board mounting hole locations and drill. Install four 6-32x1/4 mounting screws appropriate for the mounting location, leaving enough hardware exposed to install standoffs. Install standoffs. Place star washer on any one of the three standoff locations corresponding to a mounting location on the board that has a metal ring.

Affix board to standoffs with provided metal screws.

IMPORTANT: User is responsible for observing all electrical and code requirement when installing in self-provided enclosure or mounting location.

B. Make Electrical Connections

3. Select Output Voltage

Determine voltage of devices that will be powered by the power supply unit. The AQD5 provides 5 amps continuous output at 12VDC or 3 amps @ 24 VDC.

To select voltage, slide switch in the direction of the desired voltage.

CAUTION: ENSURE AC POWER, BATTERY AND OUTPUT LOAD ARE DISCONNECTED BEFORE CHANGING SETTING . Ensure that the battery voltage matches the power supply output voltage before connecting batteries.

12V REMOVE POWER BEFORE SWITCHING

4. Make AC Power Input Connections

IMPORTANT: VERIFY AC POWER IS OFF BEFORE MAKING CONNECTIONS

Connect AC power wires as follows:

Black/Positive = L

White/Negative = N

Green/Ground= G

5. Make DC Power Output Connections to Distribution or Accessory Boards

Using 18 to 24 AWG wire, connect the DC OUT Positive (+) terminal to the positive (+) IN terminal on the distribution board.

Connect the DC OUT Negative (-) terminal to the Negative/Common/C (-) IN terminal on the distribution board.

It is recommended to pass the wires under the power module board before connecting to the accessory board in order to maintain separation from battery cables.

6. Make DC Power Output Connections to Devices

Insert wires into terminal block as indicated. Maintain separation from battery cable placement by at least 1/4".

Note: Use appropriate wire gauge for the Amperage and distance of the run.

9. Turn on AC Power

After making electric connections, turn on AC power before installing batteries.

C. Install Batteries

1. Understanding Battery Charging and Backup Power

The AQD5B is a backup battery charger with automatic fail over to battery power in case of primary AC power failure when batteries are installed and connected to the power module. The use of battery backup is optional—the unit will function without batteries installed, but no internal backup power will be available in case of AC power failure.

Note: The battery circuit features automatic disconnect when the battery output falls to 9.8 VDC/19.6 VDC to prevent deep discharge and also protects the power module in case the battery is connection is reversed.

IMPORTANT: Battery configuration must match the DC output voltage setting .

For battery backup in 12VDC operation, a single 12V battery may be used, or two (2) 12V batteries may be used wired in parallel for longer run time.

Backup power run time depends on the continuous output needed to support the load and the ambient temperature at the enclosure. Estimates are provided in the table below:

Estimated Standby Time (3 amp/5 minute reserve for alarm)

Total Output Amps	4Ah Battery Standby	7Ah Battery Standby	12Ah Battery Standby	24Ah Standby	40Ah Standby
.5A	5.5 Hrs	12 Hrs	20 Hrs	40 Hrs	65 Hrs
1A	2.5 Hrs	5 Hrs	9 Hrs	19 Hrs	32 Hrs
1.3A	2 Hrs	4 Hrs	7.2 Hrs	15.5 Hrs	24 Hrs
2A	1 Hrs	2 Hrs	5 Hrs	10 Hrs	15 Hrs
3A	.5 Hrs	1 Hrs	3 Hrs	6 Hrs	9.5 Hrs
4A	.5 Hrs	.8 Hrs	2 Hrs	4 Hrs	8 Hrs
5A	NA	.6 Hrs	1.4 Hrs	3 Hrs	7 Hrs
6A	NA	.4 Hrs	1 Hrs	2 Hrs	4 Hrs

Charge current is not less than 250mA @12VDC at peak load.

2. Connecting the Battery

Plug battery cable assembly into battery backup plug -BAT+ as shown.

Install batteries. Mark batteries with "Installed" date and "Replace By" date according to manufacturer's battery life recommendations.

Connect leads to batteries.

For 12VDC operation:

Connect red battery lead to the Positive (+) battery terminal. Connect black battery lead to the Negative (-) battery terminal.

For 24VDC operation:

Using Battery Jumper Cable, connect the Positive (+) battery terminal of one battery to the Negative (-) terminal of the second battery.

Connect red battery lead to the unused Positive (+) battery terminal. Connect black battery lead to the unused Negative (-) battery terminal.

Connect black battery lead to the unused Negative (-) battery

Connect red battery lead to the unused Positive (+) battery

Recommended Annual Maintenance
Battery Test	Turn off AC power
	Check DC output voltage under battery operation.
	For fully charged batteries, voltage should be above 11.5V. If voltage is below this range, test batteries per battery manufacturer instructions and replace if needed.
AC Fail Test	Turn off AC power. AC Fail switch should trigger an alert upon disconnect or upon fail over to battery power.
