PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ICT Front Access Dual Bus Distribution Panel provides two 100A (continuous)
bus inputs with four independently controlled and monitored output channels
per bus in a compact 1U high chassis for 19 inch rack mounting. All connections
are located on the front panel for simple installation in tight cabinets, and over
current protection and manual on/off control for each output is provided by
65VDC user replaceable magnetic-hydraulic circuit breakers.
Each bus can accommodate a wide supply voltage from 10VDC to 60VDC, either
positive or negative polarity, with a peak input current of 120A to be distributed
at up to 30A peak on each of the 4 output channels. Each channel has
independent current sensing, over current protection, alarms, and output on/off
control.
Remote monitoring and control is available through the integrated security
protected Ethernet communications port on the front panel. The unit has a built-
in web server with an embedded web-based graphical user interface (GUI) that
can be accessed using any standard commercial web browser, such as Internet
Explorer or Google Chrome. The web server displays all panel information, allows
full access to channel configuration settings, provides remote channel on/off
control, and can be set up to send an alarm to user-defined email accounts in the
event a fault occurs. The web server can also be used to configure and down-
load a data log of up to 30 days of time stamped event information. Full
monitoring and control is also available using an SNMP (v2) based management
system for larger installations.
Form-C alarm output contacts (C/NO/NC) are provided for each bus to indicate
all distribution panel alarms, while 4 additional alarm inputs can be used to
monitor other dry-contact site sensors such as door/window opening, smoke
alarms, and water detectors etc. An optional remote temperature sensor (ICT-
TMP) can also be connected for remote monitoring of a battery pack or another
important temperature.

Bond the panel chassis to the rack system ground, connecting a ground wire with
ring tongue to the front panel ground stud. (1/4-20 thread)
Connect Bus A loads to output channels A1 to A4 using suitably rated wire sized
for the breaker installed on the channel, with crimped on spade lug terminals
compatible with the output terminal block screws. Note which load is connected
to each channel, for future reference.
Repeat for the Bus B loads if required. The unit may be operated with either Bus
A or Bus B powered, or both.
NOTE!
All channel RTN lines, and the main high power Bus A and Bus B RTN terminals
are common, and tied to a single internal Return bus. Bus A and Bus B inputs can
be wired to a different dc voltage (10 to 60Vdc) of either polarity, but must share
a common RTN voltage, normally at earth potential.
Connect the main Bus A RTN line to the external battery or power supply return
using suitably sized wire and dual hole lug connector rated for up to 100A
continuous current. Connect the lug to the dual ¼-20 thread Bus A Rtn studs, and
then securely fasten with the supplied hardware.
Connect the Bus A Input through a suitably rated disconnect switch (set in the
open position) with a fuse or circuit breaker rated for 100A max continuous
operation to the external battery or power supply output, using suitably sized
wire and a dual-hole Lug connector rated for 100A continuous current. Connect
the Input lug to the dual ¼-20 thread Bus A Input studs, then securely fasten with
the supplied hardware. Snap the clear cover on to the Bus A input connector to
help prevent accidental contact with the input stud connections.
Repeat input wiring for the Bus B input, its power source and over current
protection device, if the Bus B outputs are to be used. Bus A and Bus B Input and
output Return lines are internally connected together, so will share a common
ground. The Bus A and Bus B Input terminals are isolated, and support operation
from separate + or –10 to 60V power sources, as long as they share a common
Return potential.
Connect the two form-C relay bus alarm outputs to an external monitoring
system if needed, by stripping and terminating 16-28AWG alarm wiring in the
Alarm 7-pin connector plug (lower), and installing in the front panel. Each Bus
Alarm output will trigger for any breaker open, or other alarm related to any
channel on that bus (Factory Default). Most alarm conditions can be masked off
so that they will not trigger the Alarm output if required, using the web based
graphical interface.

front panel to remotely monitor, control and reconfigure the panel settings from
a remote computer.
OPERATION
Ensure the correct circuit breakers are installed in each channel location that will
be used to power a load.
Energise each bus by closing the main external breaker or disconnect device on
the bus input lines. Switch on the front panel channel breakers for all connected
outputs, and check that the internal channel relays have closed by verifying that
the connected loads are energised. (Note that all output channels on a bus will
be disabled and network communication will be dropped if the bus voltage drops
below approximately 6V for more than 3s. Normal operation will be restored
once the bus voltage is above 8V)
Switch off any unused internal channel relays to reduce the power consumed by
the panel, using a networked computer and Web Browser. See the TCP/IP Web
Based Utility section, Output On/Off Buttons. (Each channel relay consumes
approximately 2W when closed; the factory default setting is for all outputs to be
on)
