- 2 - AL600UL3/AL600UL3X
Overview:
The AL600UL3/AL600UL3X Triple Output Power Supply/Charger is specifically designed for use with access control
and fire-protective signaling systems and accessories. The AL600UL3/AL600UL3X converts a 115VAC 60Hz input into
three (3) outputs (see specifications).

Installation Instructions:
Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/NFPA 72/ANSI, and with all local
codes and authorities having jurisdiction. Product is intended for indoor use only.
1. Mount unit in the desired location. Mark and predrill holes in the wall to line up with the top two keyholes in the
enclosure. Install two upper fasteners and screws in the wall with the screw heads protruding. Place the enclosure’s
upper keyholes over the two upper screws; level and secure. Mark the position of the lower two holes. Remove the
enclosure. Drill the lower holes and install the three fasteners. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the two
upper screws. Install the two lower screws and make sure to tighten all screws (Enclosure Dimensions, pgs. 7-8).
Secure enclosure to earth ground. It is recommended to first review the following tables for screw terminals, switch
selection and LED status indications. This will greatly facilitate installation hook-up.
Carefully review:
Stand-by Specifications (pg. 2)
LED Diagnostics (pg. 4)
Terminal Identification Table (pg. 4)
2. Connect AC power (115VAC 60Hz) to the terminals marked [L, N] (Fig. 1, pg. 3). Use 14 AWG or larger for all
power connections (Battery, DC output, AC input). Use 22 AWG to 18 AWG for power-limited circuits
(AC Fail/Low Battery reporting).
Keep power-limited wiring separate from non power-limited wiring (115VAC / 60Hz Input, Battery Wires).
Minimum 0.25” spacing must be provided.
For Fire Alarm applications the outputs are “Special Applications” only, see list (refer to Appendix A, pg. 5).
3. Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage.
