Western Telematic PTS-9CM20-2 Introduction, Hardware Installation, Apply Power to the MPC, Page

1.Introduction

This Quick Start Guide describes the installation procedure for the PTS series hardware. The PTS is essentially a power fallback switch, that automatically switches power from a primary input to a secondary input when power to the primary input is lost or interrupted.

2.Hardware Installation

Apply Power to the MPC

Refer to the warnings and cautions at the beginning of this guide and the power rating nameplate on the PTS back panel, and then connect the unit to two appropriate power sources. For units with detachable power input cables, connect the power input cables to the power inlets, install the cable keepers, and then connect the primary power input cable to your primary power supply and the secondary power input cable to your secondary power supply. Refer to the table below for information concerning power requirements and maximum loads.

	Input	Input	Max. Load		Max. Load
Model No.	Feeds (x2)	Voltage	per Outlet	Outlets	per Unit
PTS-8NE15-1	15 Amps	100 to 120 VAC	12 Amps	8 ea. NEMA 5-15R	12 Amps*
PTS-9CM20-2	20 Amps	200 to 240 VAC	10/16 Amps	8 ea. IEC-60320-C13	16 Amps*
				1 ea. IEC-60320-C19

* In accordance with UL requirements, this value has been de-rated to 80%.

Power Input Feeds:

•PTS-8NE15-1:Two (2) IEC-60320-C14 Inlets.

•PTS-9CM20-2:Two (2) IEC-60320-C20 Inlets.

Notes:

•After connecting your power cables to the PTS unit, make certain to secure the cables in order to prevent accidental disconnection.

•PTS-1 series units are designed for switching power input lines that are typically 120 VAC. If a power input lower than 120 VAC is connected to a PTS-1 unit, then power switching features will not function correctly.

•PTS-2 series units are designed for switching power input lines that are typically 240 VAC. If a power input lower than 240 VAC is connected to a PTS-2 unit, then power switching features will not function correctly.
