3.Verify that the PSS model is the one that you ordered, and ensure that the voltage meets your specific requirements.

3.2Mounting and Wiring the PSS

For optimum heat dissipation, the power supply should be installed with the heatsink fins in the vertical direction.

3.2.1Wiring Guidelines

1.Use flexible wires with the proper cross-section to handle the unit current. Color coding is recommended.

2.After wiring is completed, carefully inspect all conditions in order to ensure tightness.

3.2.2AC Power Supplies

The PSS power supplies do not include inrush current control. Therefore, they should be connected to an isolating/floating transformer.
