-
Verify the input voltage (120 VAC or 240 VAC) matches the facility power supply.
-
Ensure the 531X112PSAALG1 output capacity (150 W, 10 A on +5 V) is sufficient for the total load.
Critical Precautions
-
Input Voltage Selection – Before installing the 531X112PSAALG1, verify the input voltage selection switch is set to the correct position (120 VAC or 240 VAC). Incorrect selection may damage the power supply.
-
