Core Functions

1. Drive‑rack power conversion: Converts AC input to stable multi‑channel DC power for DCCA, DCIA and other drive control boards.
2. Fuse & fault protection: Fuses and protection circuits cut off output under fault conditions to protect downstream cards.
3. Input‑voltage hardware selection: Jumpers match board to site AC supply voltage.
4. Backplane power distribution: Distributes regulated DC power to all rack modules via stab‑on connectors.
5. Power‑health diagnostics: LED indicators show power‑supply operating status for commissioning and troubleshooting.

Installation, Replacement & Critical Warnings

1. Complete system power‑down and lock‑out procedure required before servicing. Non‑hot‑swappable. ESD wrist‑strap protection is mandatory for PCB handling.
2. Record original voltage‑selection jumper positions before removal. Incorrect jumper configuration will burn out the power supply and other rack boards.
3. Secure AC‑input and stab‑on connectors firmly; loose connections cause intermittent power dropout and random drive trips.
4. After power‑on, verify power‑rail outputs: check LED status and measure +5 VDC, ±15 VDC voltage levels.

5. Common failure mode: AC‑line surge, blown fuses and aged electrolytic capacitors. Inspect input AC quality when random drive resets occur.
