Introduction 

The ICL-R/L is an AC inrush current limiter that can be used to reduce the high starting current due to capacitive 
load or inductive causing the  circuit  breaker to be false triggered. Several power supplies can be installed on the 
same AC line after the implementation of an ICL-R/L. 

 

 

Installation 

ICL-R

 

1

Always allow good ventilation clearances, 5mm left and right, 40mm above and 20mm below, around the unit 

in use to prevent it from overheating. Also a 10-15 cm clearance must be kept when the adjacent device is a 
heat source. 

2

The appropriate mounting orientation for the unit is vertical, the input terminals at the bottom and output on 

the top. Mounting orientations other than that, such as upside down, horizontal, or table-top mounting, is not 
allowed.

Use copper wire only, and recommended wires are shown as below.

Note

Current each wire carries should be de-rated to 80% of the current suggested above 

when using 4-6 wires connected to the unit. 

Make sure that all strands of each stranded wire enter the terminal connection and the screw terminals are 

securely  fixed  to  prevent  poor  contact.  If  the  power  supply  possesses  multi-output  terminals,  please  make 
sure each contact is connected to wires to prevent too much current stress on a single contact.   

4

Use wires that can withstand temperatures of at least 80°C, such as UL1007. 

5

Recommended wire strapping length is 6mm (0.236”). 

6

Recommended screwdriver is 3mm, slotted type. 

7

The recommended torque setting for terminals is shown as below.
