AQU244 & AQU128 Description

The AQU244 and AQU128 are clean, efficient, heavy duty, low frequency off line switching power supplies with battery charger and power supervision. Even though the wattage is the same for the AQU244 and the AQU128, we sell them separately for optimum performance. The AQU244 and AQU128 use a very low switching frequency of 23KHz, just above our hearing range. This, coupled with extensive filtering, provides a balance of super clean power and efficiency. This low frequency also eliminates interference problems with card readers. The AQU244 and AQU128 are self-contained with a universal line input of 90 to 264vac. The AQU244 and AQU128 each weigh less than 1.5 lbs and occupy less than ½ of a cubic foot of cabinet space.

The AQU244 and AQU128 become an uninterruptible power supply when a stand by battery(s) is connected with the supplied cable. These supplies have a special power limiting circuit that allows the batteries to be float charged

across the output without lock up or chirping on and off. The battery(s) is protected with an automatic resetting circuit breaker and diode for over current and accidental reversed battery hookup. Float charging means faster recovery time for the battery(s). There is no switch over or voltage drop when power fails. Standby battery(s) can be any capacity between 4 and 40 Amp hours. The precise output voltage provides longer battery life. The AQU244 24vdc is rated for 4 Amps continuous current with 1 Amp reserved for battery charging. The AQU12812vdc is rated for 8 Amps continuous current with 2 Amps reserved for battery charging.

Power Supervision includes a battery cut off relay and a separate power trouble alarm relay. The battery cut off relay removes the battery from the load when the battery reaches its service limit. This prevents damage to the battery from going into deep discharge. The power trouble alarm relay output, form C contacts, can be used to signal a buzzer and/or other signaling device. The relay is normally energized for fail-safe operation. The relay has a green LED that is on when power is good. The relay will drop off of normal when the standby battery(s) reaches about 70% of capacity after a power a power failure. This low voltage indication represents power trouble. High voltage failure will also indicate power trouble.

A Service Switch is provided to disable the power output. When the switch is turned off, the power supply is electronically disabled and the battery cut off relay is de-energized to remove battery from the output terminal. The switch is marked DC ON with arrow indicating ON. Note On AQU224E and AQU128E units with the CE Mark for Europe do not have the service switch.

The Smart Fan Power Header provides power for the Smart Fan when the AQU244 or AQU128 is mounted in our large enclosure. The Smart Fan regulates the temperature in the enclosure by varying the fan speed to keep the enclosure cool.

Explanation of Terminals and LED's

AC Input Terminals are marked High Voltage (L)ine, (N)eutral, and (G)round. The terminal block and AC LED are mounted within a high voltage barrier. The terminal block is self-clamping and can accept wires from 12awg to 18awg. The Green LED adjacent to terminals is ON Green when AC is applied.

Power Trouble Terminals are marked NO-Normally Open, C–Common, and NC–Normally Closed. The normal relay position indicates the output power is in the normal range and the relay is energized. The terminal block is self-clamping and can accept wire from 14awg to 24awg. The contacts are rated for up to 2A resistive load to 120 volts. The Green LED adjacent to the terminal block is ON Green when power is in the normal range. When the AC fails and the battery(s) drop to about 70% capacity, the power trouble relay and LED will go off normal. If an internal failure caused the output to rise above normal, this would also cause the power trouble relay and LED will go off normal.

DC Output Terminals on the AQU244 and AQU128 are marked –DC+ output. The AQU244 has a DC output of 24vdc with 4 Amps of continuous current, reserving 1 Amp for battery charging. The AQU128 has a DC output of 12vdc with 8 Amps of continuous current, reserving 2 Amps for battery charging. The terminal block is selfclamping and can accept wires from 10awg to 24awg. The Red LED adjacent to terminal block is ON when output voltage is present.

The AQU244 and AQU128 output is not class II power limited. The multi-output (-8C or -16C) models mounted in an enclosure have one or two PDB-8C distribution boards. The DC output of the AQU244 or AQU128 is fed to these distribution boards where each output has a PTC circuit breaker. The outputs from the PTC circuit breakers are class II power-limited. You must keep a .25" minimum spacing of power-limited wires to non-power limited wiring.

The input and output terminals on the PDB-8C's are self-clamping and accept wires from 10awg to 24awg. Each output has a Green LED adjacent to its output that indicates voltage present. Adjacent to the input terminals of the PDB-8C boards is main Power LED and Fuse. The fuse is an ATO automotive type. Replace with recommended size. The main power LED will be Green when main power is on. If polarity is incorrect the main LED will light RED.

Battery Connector is marked –Bat+. This is a .156" 2 position header with lock. The provided battery cable plugs in to this. The provided cable is 12" long. For remote battery mounting, part WA-36IBAT is a 36" battery cable. The battery cable wires are Red and Black. The red connects to the positive and black to the negative of the battery. The AQU24424vdc model comes with a 12" black wire with female slip on connectors on each end for connecting 2 12v batteries in series.

FAN Power is marked FAN. This is a .1" 2 position header with lock. The fan cable plugs here to provide power for fan on units mounted in enclosure.

Maintenance

The power supply and stand by battery(s) should be tested at least once a year as follows:

• 1. Check LED's for normal state. AC ON Green, Trouble ON Green, DC ON Red.
• 2. Check output voltage with normal load. The AQU128 should read between 13.60 and 13.85vdc. The AQU244 should read between 27.00 and 27.8vdc. This assures proper voltage to float charge batteries.
• 3. Disconnect AC input. AC LED should be off, all other LED's should remain normal.
• 4. Check DC Output to be above 12.1vdc for AQU128 and 24.2vdc for AQU244. This checks standby batteries to be operational. Sealed lead acid batteries have a typical life of 3 to 5 years.
• 5. Re Apply AC and verify AC LED ON.

Lead acid batteries have a typical life of 3 to 5 years.

AQU244 and AQU128 Multiple Output, Off Line Supervised Power Supply/Chargers Installation Guide

The AQU244 and AQU128 Supervised Power Supply/Chargers with standby battery(s) provide an uninterruptible 24vdc or 12vdc power source. The PDB-8C Power Distribution modules provide 8 or 16 class II power limited outputs, each with circuit breaker protection.

• 1. This installation should be made by a qualified service person, should conform to all local codes and should comply with The National Electrical Code (or equivalent).
• 2. Mount the Power Supply in desired location.
• 3. Connect Line voltage, 90 to 240vac and Earth Ground to the 3 position terminal block marked HIGH VOLTAGE. The Earth Ground terminal is connected to the enclosure and outer heat sink case for safety and EMI filtering.
• 4. Use Power Service Switch to remove all output power. (No service switch on European models)
• 5. Connect DC devices to the Output Terminals (*). (-) Negative power is the bottom row of terminals marked common 1 8. (+) Positive power is the top row of terminals marked 1 8. These terminals are just under the green status LED's. Each (+) terminal is protected with a PTC circuit breaker. Observe polarity.
• 6. You may connect a maximum of 2 outputs in parallel to double output current for a branch and still keep the class II power limited classification. The power table below shows the continuous current you may use for each output.
• 7. Be sure that the total current requirement conforms to the total available output current.
• 8. Connect Power Trouble alarm contacts.
• 9. Use Power Service Switch to restore output power.
• 10. Each Output Power/Fuse ready is indicated with a Green LED ON below each Circuit Breaker. See instructions for more details regarding LED indicators.
• 11. To reset a tripped PTC Circuit Breaker, you may have to turn power switch off, or remove faulted circuit output for up to 2 minutes. This allows the PTC re-settable fuse to cool and reset to it's normal "ON" condition.
