1.1

Connecting the Power Supply

For the power supply of the UPS, an external power supply unit is required, which provides a 24 V DC
voltage (-15 % / +20 %). Connect the external power supply unit to the Uin input of the UPS. A power supply
with an output current of min. 10 A is recommended.

For the 9-pin connectors, cables with a cross-section of 0.5 mm² to 1.5 mm² or AWG20 to AWG16 are
required. With cable end sleeve max. 1 mm2 or AWG 17 are permissible.
