The following is a set of instructions to help you get your Alpha Power Supply Module to read “- -” on the display and have a consistent 300 volt DC output:
- Turn off the power. Make sure the charge light is off before doing anything. Check for a short between the bottom and top buss bars. If there is a short, disconnect all modules until the short disappears. Once there is no short, continue.
- Feed a 3 phase input into L1, L2, and L3 of the the power supply. Between 200V and 220V AC for leg to leg connections and between 100V and 110V AC for let to ground connections.
- Feed 200V into the CX1A connector.
- Install a jumper onto the top/bottom pins of the grouping of 3 pins on the CX3/MCC cable coming into the power supply.
- Install a jumper onto the top two pins of the grouping of 3 pins on the CX4 cable on the power supply.
- Make sure that all screws on the PCB are tightly screwed in.
After following this process, your power supply module should now read “- -” and have baseline voltage output.
