1. Technical description.
The buffer power pack is dedicated for uninterrupted power supply for the equipment requiring the
stabilized voltage 12V DC (±15%). The linear stabilizing system applied in the equipment delivers the voltage with
lower level of noise and shorter response time for the interference as is the case where a pulse stabilizer is
applied. The power pack delivers the voltage in buffer work Uout = 12.8 V ÷ 13.8 V DC, with the total current
capacity of 2 A. In the case of voltage decay, the immediate switching to power supplies from battery takes place
Caution: Using AWZ200 Power Supply for CCTV, KD, SSWiN or other similar applications
demands using the MZN1 overvoltage module in the output DC stage of Power Supply.

2. Installation.
The buffer power pack is dedicated for assembly by the qualified assembly man, holding relevant
certificates (as required and necessary for the specific country), permissions and authorizations for making
connections in 230 V AC systems and LV systems. The equipment should be assembled in non-open-space
rooms, in accordance with environment class II, with standard air relative humidity (RH – 90% maximum, without
condensation) and the temperature within the range from -10°C to +40°C. The power pack should be operated in
the vertical position such that the free air convection is ensured through the ventilation openings of the enclosure.
Prior to entering for installation, the balance of power pack loads should be drawn up. During the normal
operation the sum of currents consumed by the consumers may not exceed 2A, with the incorporation of
the battery charging current.
As the power pack is designed for the constant operation, the circuit breaker is not included and this is why the
proper and appropriate shock protection in the power supply circuit must be ensured. Also the users should be
informed about the method of disconnecting the power pack from the power supply voltage (most frequently
through the separation and designation of the relevant fuse in the fuse box). The wiring system should be
completed in accordance with the applicable norms, standards and regulations.
Caution: Prior to entering for installation make sure that the voltage in the 230 V power supply circuit
is disconnected.
1. Assemble the power pack in any place and connect the connection leads.
2. Remove the power grid fuse protecting the transformer primary circuit.
3. Connect the 230 V power supply conductors to the 230 V AC transformer terminals [8]. The earthing conductor
should be connected to the terminal designated with the earthing symbol [10]. The connection should be made
by means of the three-wire cable (with yellow-green PE protective conductor). The power supply conductors
should be run as far as the relevant terminals of the connection board, through the insulation pass.
Caution: Pay special attention when completing the shock protection circuit: the yellow-green PE
protective conductor of the power supply cable must be connected from one side to the terminal
designated in the power pack enclosure. The operation of the power pack without the shock
protection circuit properly completed and technically operable IS NOT ADMISSIBLE!
The operation without such circuit threatens with damage to the equipment or electric shock.

4. Connect the leads of the consumers to joints OUT + and - of the joint box on the power pack board [6].
(Optionally connect the MZN1 module between +OUT- and load).
5. Activate the 230 V AC power supply and insert the power network fuse protecting the transformer primary circuit
[9]. Check the optical signalling of the power pack operation. The output voltage of the unloaded power pack is
equal to ~ 13.8 V DC. The voltage may fluctuate from 12.8 V to 13.8 V DC during battery charging.
6. Connect the battery in accordance with the designations [3] with colours. After this operation is completed, the
voltage appears in the output of the power pack, which is signalled by the green diode on.
7. Perform the power pack test checking the optical signalling [4] [5]: - the disconnection of the voltage 230 V AC
through the removal of the fuse from the transformer socket will be signalled by the red diode going off.
8. Following the assembly and checking the correctness of operation, the enclosure may be locked.
3. Handling and operation.
3.1. Power pack operation signalling.
The unit is equipped with the optical signalling of operation states:
Red diode:
on -the power pack is supplied with voltage 230V AC
off -the power pack is not supplied with voltage 230V
AC
Green diode
on – DC voltage at the output of the power pack
off – DC voltage missing at the output of the power
pack
- on - off
Description Comments
Proper state of operation
Output overloaded or short
circuited - check cabling and consumers
- if the battery is connected, check
battery fuse
The absence of power
supply from the power
network, operation from
battery
- check transformer fuse
The absence of voltage at
the output - check cabling and consumers
- check transformer fuse
- check battery fuse
flickers Output overloaded - lower the consumption of current by
consumers
Tab. 4 Optical signalling.
3.2. Operation from the battery.
Starting the operation from the battery.
The time of operation with supplies from battery depends on the battery capacity, the extent of charging
and the load current. For example, for the typical, fully charged battery with capacity of 17 Ah and load current 2A,
the maximum operation time safe for the battery is approximately 8h.
Starting the power pack from the battery: after connecting the battery in accordance with the
designations [3], the voltage appears on the output terminals of the power pack.
The limitation of the battery charging current.
The power pack is equipped with the battery charging current limitation to the value:
- Iacc (max) = 1.4 A with unloaded power pack Iout = 0A
- Iacc (aver.) = 0.3 A with power pack load with current Iout = 1.7 A

3.3. Procedures in the case of power pack overloading.
The power pack is equipped with the protection of the output stage with the application of the PTC polymer fuse.
When the power pack is loaded with current exceeding 2A (110% ÷150% P) , the automatic disconnection of the
output voltage takes place which is signalled by the green diode going off. In such a case, the load should be
disconnected from the output of the power pack for the period of about 1 minute.
4. Maintenance.
All the maintenance duties may be performed following disconnection of the power pack from the power grid. The
power pack does not require any specific maintenance procedures, however, in the case of significant level of
dust, its interior should be cleaned with the compressed air.
When replacing the fuse, use only substitutes in conformity to originals.
