General
General
The PDM5 modules are designed for indoor use only.
Tactical Power Products PDM5 features ten individually fused outputs terminated to a 10 way heavy duty terminal block. A common fault
relay output to signal failure of any individual circuit. This output may be used to drive DVR alarm inputs, security alarm inputs / building
management systems or a local sounder / strobe to inform personnel of equipment failure.
Available in either 12vdc / 24vac, 24vdc / 24vac or 48vdc models, the use of PDM5 minimizes the likelihood of a total system shutdown
in the event of a short circuit on any one single circuit run.
Featuring state-of-the-art Surface Mount Technology and 10 individual M205 1a fused protected circuits - each with an LED to indicate
fuse status, Yellow high voltage 24vac status LED, the PDM5 is available with a variety of fuse ratings to suit your application - please
specify 250ma, 500ma or 1a at time of order (1a supplied unless otherwise specied).
Load Current
Prior to connecting equipment to the nominated output check the device load current
Various equipment manufacturers may specify the equipment current load in Watts i.e. 12v @ 6W
A quick calculation using Ohms law can determine the load in Amps, for instance if a device nominate 6W the current can be determined
I = P ÷ E, where P is power measured in watts, Iis current measured in amps, and Eis voltage measured in volts. Thus, the current I in
amps is equal to the power Pin watts divided by the voltage Vin volts. Example 6W/12v=500ma, 12W/12v =1a
NB Only use the Watts nominated on the low voltage output never on the mains voltage.
Inrush Current
Not all manufacturers will provide the peak current (inrush current) when a device is powered, this can be critical as the inrush current
may exceed the rating of the fuse and cause a circuit failure, or in the case of multiple device being powered may exceed the maximum
rated current of the power supply. In which case he power supply should enter current limit or hiccup mode, where the power supply
shuts down and attempts to restart. If the overload is still there which will be the case with inrush current the power supply will again
enter this protection cycle and will not start leading to a total system failure.
NB Inrush current cannot be measured on standard digital multimeter due to the short duration of the cycle, this may be capable on
specialised mulitmeter or an digital storage oscilloscope.
PCB Load Rating
Installers should ensure that total system current draw does not exceed the rating of the PCB which is rated for (10a)
continuous load.
Mounting
The PDM5 series are supplied with four 3M D Stape stando which have captive lugs when inserted into the PCB mounting hole.
Tactical series powder coated enclosures are tted with metal 3mm x 8 mm threaded standos to suit PDM module and ush mount 3
mm root nuts to mount power modules and are designed to accommodate various SLA batteries check with your supplier.
Settings
J -1 Voltage Selection
All models are factory set for 24vac operation header shunt on pins 2 & 3. For dc operation change header shut pins to 1 & 2.
