Apply DC power to the switch (for DC models)

Read the 

Safety and Statutory Information

 booklet before connecting a DC 

power supply. A copy of this booklet is included with each switch. It is also 
included on the Documentation and Tools CD-ROM, or can be 
downloaded from www.alliedtelesyn.co.nz/support/rapier/.

Only trained and qualified personnel should connect a DC power supply. Due 
to exposed terminals, DC powered switches should only be installed in 
Restricted Access Areas.

DC supply cable specifications:

Number of wires (cores): 3

Minimum size: 2.1mm

2

 (14 AWG)

Minimum cable rating: 600V, 90 degrees Celsius

DC power supply specifications:

48 VDC (39-60 VDC is acceptable)

Either positive grounded or negative grounded

Circuit protection:

Use a 10 Amp circuit breaker

To connect the DC supply:

a) Ensure the supply cable is not live

b) Strip the supply cable wires to expose 8mm (0.31 in.) of bare conductor

c)

At the switch, connect the ground wire to the ground terminal (The 

terminals can be identified by the diagram on the switch’s rear panel, 
see Figure 2). Tighten the terminal to between 0.6 and 0.8 Nm (0.041 to 
0.055 pound-force per foot)
