Installation Instructions:
The AL300ULB should be installed in accordance with article 760 of The National Electrical Code or NFPA 72 as well
as all applicable Local Codes.
1. Mount the AL300ULB in the desired location/enclosure.
2. Connect 28VAC / 100VA transformer to the terminals marked [AC, AC].
Use 18 AWG or larger for all power connections (Battery, DC output).
Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for power-limited circuits (AC Fail/Low Battery reporting).
3. Set the AL300ULB to the desired DC output voltage by setting switches to the appropriate positions
(refer to Power Supply Output Specifications Table).
4. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage.
5. Connect devices to be powered to the terminals marked [+ DC -- ] (Fig. 1).
6. For Access Control applications, batteries are optional. When batteries are not used, a loss of AC will result in the
loss of output voltage. When the use of stand-by batteries is desired, they must be lead acid or gel type.
Connect battery to the terminals marked [- BAT +] (Fig. 1) (battery leads included).
Use two (2) 12VDC batteries connected in series for 24VDC operation.
7. Connect supervisory trouble reporting devices to the outputs marked [LOW BAT, AC FAIL] (Fig. 1) supervisory
relays marked [NC, NO, C, ]. Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for AC Fail & Low Battery reporting.
Input:
• Input 28VAC / 100VA.
Output:
