Altronix OLS250 User manual

Overview:
The OLS250 is a power supply/charger that converts 115VAC / 60Hz input, into a 24VDC @ 10 amp continuous supply
current (see specifications).
Specifications:
OLS250
Offline Switching Power Supply/Charger
• 24VDC output.
• Input 115VAC / 60Hz, 1.9 amp.
• Maximum charge current 0.7 amp.
• 10 amp continuous supply current.
• Filtered and electronically regulated outputs.
• Built-in charger for sealed lead acid or gel type batteries.
• Automatic switch over to stand-by battery when AC fails
(zero voltage drop).
• AC input and DC output LED indicators.
• AC fail supervision (form "C" contacts).
• Low battery supervision (form "C" contacts).
• Short circuit overload protection.
• Includes battery leads.
Board Dimensions (approximate): 4.25”L x 4.5”W x 1.75”H
Specified at 25˚ C ambient.
Installation Instructions:
The OLS250 should be installed in accordance with The National Electrical Code and all applicable Local Regulations.
1. Mount the OLS250 in desired location/enclosure.
2. Slide [Power ON/OFF] switch to OFF position (Fig. 1a, pg. 2).
3. Connect AC power to terminals marked [L & N], connect ground to terminal marked [G] (Fig. 1, pg. 2).
Use 18 AWG or larger for all power connections (Battery, DC output, AC input).
Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for AC Fail/Low Battery reporting (Fig. 1b, pg. 2).
4. Slide [Power ON/OFF] switch to ON position (Fig. 1a, pg. 2).
5. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoid potential damage.
6. Slide [Power ON/OFF] switch to OFF position (Fig. 1a, pg. 2).
7. Connect devices to be powered to terminals marked [--- DC +] (Fig. 1, pg.2).
8. When the use of stand-bybatteries are desired, they must be lead acid or gel type. Connect two (2) 12VDC batteries
connected in series terminals marked [--- BAT +] (battery leads included) (Fig. 1, pg. 2).
Note: When batteries are not used a loss of AC will result in the loss of output voltage.
9. Slide [Power ON/OFF] switch to ON position (Fig. 1a, pg.2).
10. Connect appropriate signaling notification devices to AC Fail & Low battery supervisory relay outputs
marked [N.C., C, N.O.] (Fig. 1b, pg. 2).
LED Diagnostics:
Red (DC) Green (AC) Power Supply Status
ON ON Normal operating condition.
ON OFF Loss of AC, Stand-bybattery supplying power.
OFF ON No DC output. Short circuit or thermal overload condition.
OFF OFF Loss of AC. Discharged or no stand-by battery. No DC output.

Terminal Legend Function/Description
L, G, N Connect 115VAC to these terminals: L to Hot, N to Neutral, G to ground.
--- D C + 24VDC @ 10 amp continuous supply current.
AC FAIL
N.C., C, N.O.
Used to notify loss of AC power, e.g. connect to audible device or alarm panel.
Relay normally energized when AC power is present. Contact rating 1 amp @ 28VDC.
Low Battery
N.C., C, N.O.
Used to indicate low battery condition, e.g. connect to alarm panel. Relay normally energized when
DC power is present. Contact rating 1 amp @ 28VDC.
Low battery threshold: 24VDC output threshold set @ approximately 21VDC.
--- B AT + Stand-by battery connections. Maximum charge rate 0.7 amp.
