6. INSTALLATION
6.7 Power Module Installation
AM Series power modules are placed in the lower-right compartment of PME enclosures; the
upper-right compartment of PWE, UPE and UPE/M enclosures. The enclosure's lid lifts and
the door(s) can be removed. (Refer to the Module and Battery Placement drawings located
at the back of the manual). NOTE: Enclosure components such as SPI and LRI accept plug-
in type connectors. An APX cable is provided to accommodate the AM module's screw-in
terminal block.
Procedure:
1. Slide the power module against the back wall of the enclosure (under the retaining
brackets).
2. Use a retaining screw to secure the power module to the enclosure. The screw goes
through the opening in the front lip of the module and into a hole in the enclosure’s shelf.
3. Connect the wires from the SPI (Service Power Inserter) to the power module’s 10-pin
terminal strip: White to pin 3 (neutral); Black to pin 4 (60 VAC).
4. If an optional ACI (AC Indicator) is included, it should also be wired to the module’s 10-
pin terminal strip, along with the SPI: Yellow to pin 3 (neutral); Black to pin 4 (60 VAC).
5. Switch the battery circuit breaker, located on the module's front panel, OFF (or remove
the battery fuse). This will prevent the inverter from starting when the batteries are first
connected to the power module.
6. Connect the battery cables to pins 1 and 2 on the module’s 10-pin terminal strip: Negative
(blue) to pin 1; Positive (red) to pin 2. Polarity is clearly marked for easy identification.
Route the cables through the grommeted hole in the enclosure's shelf and into the battery
compartment.
7. If an optional LRI (Local and Remote Indicator) is included, it should be wired to the
module’s 10-pin terminal strip: Negative (white) to pin 6; Positive (blue) to pin 7.
8. If remote alarms are included in the installation: Pin 8 is configured “normally open”
(contacts close when alarm is present); Pin 9 is configured as common; Pin 10 is
configured “normally closed” (contacts open when alarm is present).
