5.4 AC Mains Power Connection

This section details the requirements for the ac mains which is the ac power connection required by each DSAi module.

5.4.1 AC MAINS SUPPLY

WARNING: Read WARNING under SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS on Page 2.

Each DSAi Series module is rated for a particular nominal ac mains voltage: 115 V or 230 V. Provide the module with 50 Hz or 60 Hz ac mains circuit capable of:

 

100 V to 120 V

220 V to 240 V

DSA230i and DSA250i

4 A

4 A

Before applying power, ensure that the ac mains voltage matches the voltage rating on the module.

DANGER: DO NOT APPLY 230 V MAINS POWER IF THE VOLTAGE RATING ON THE MODULE IS 115 V. IMMEDIATE AND CATASTROPHIC DAMAGE TO THE MODULE WILL RESULT AND MAY CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD, SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.

5.4.2 AC MAINS CABLE

The supplied Neutrik PowerCon NAC3FCA plug mates with the Neutrik PowerCon NAC3MPA AC MAINS jack on the module. Because of both varying installation and electrical code requirements, neither an ac mains cable nor ac mains supply connection are supplied.

1.Supply and connect a 3-conductor power cable to the supplied PowerCon plug, ensuring a proper ground connection.

2.Supply and attach an appropriate connector for the ac mains connection at the other end.

Recommended Power Cable

Conductor Gauge:

14 AWG / 2.5 mm (limited by PowerCon design)

Cable O.D.:

5 mm to 15 mm (limited by PowerCon design)

Recommended length: Maximum 25 ft / 8 m (for <2% voltage drop at peak input power)

NOTE: If the power cable is longer than 25 ft / 8 m the voltage drop will increase.

5.4.3 POWER ON / OFF

There is NO power on/off switch on DSAi Series modules. A module will be powered on (energized) when connected to an ac mains supply. For about 3 seconds when first powered on, the LED on the Signal End will flash rapidly and the FAULT DETECT relay in the Power End cap will click on and off. This is normal and indicates the electronics are being initialized. The LED should then go off. See Section 6.1.2 for other LED indications.
