4.3.2.1 AC/DC Power Supply
The
1
AC/DC
power supply
(Fig. 46)
is used to connect the power controller
to a suitable 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz grounded power source capable of
supplying a minimum of 5 amps.
The safety of the power controller relies on the provision of a proper ground
connection.
In environments with moisture present, a GFCI
(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter)
must be used to ensure operator safety.
NOTE:
Some generators or DC-AC inverters may introduce significant levels of
noise to the system. This may degrade overall system performance or
reduce the system life expectancy. Use of generators or DC-AC inverters is
not recommended and are used at the operator’s risk.
