A 4-PPS/M configured as the PPS provides filtered, regulated
power to the rail chassis modules as well as 24 VDC for operating
ancillary equipment. The PPS consists of a power supply unit
(PSU) mainboard and a monitor (MON) module. Standard Features

normal operating ranges.
The 4-PPS power supplies automatically load test batteries by
shutting down the battery charger and placing a load across the Installation and Mounting
battery. If the battery voltage is outside the specification range the
power supply reports a trouble. The trouble clears if the battery is
able to recover and pass future load tests.
Battery leads are electronically short circuit protected. If a short L
occurs in the battery leads the charger automatically disables itself R

short has cleared. If the short clears, the system automatically
restores.
During operation on standby batteries, battery voltage is
constantly monitored. A trouble is reported if the battery voltage
falls below a specified value.
4-PPS power supplies provide specific information back to the
CPU designed to help speed trouble shooting of system functions.
Should a power supply detect a fault, specific diagnostic codes Power

Power Supply Rules

1. Equipment damage: Do not install the 4-PPS/M in the same cabinet as a 3-PPS/M, 3-BPS/M, or 3-BBC/M. Combining the
4-PPS/M with legacy power supplies will cause damage to the power supply.
2. Each battery set needs one charger.
3. Each power supply must be connected to a battery set using an identical length and gauge of wire to keep voltage drops identical.
4. Distribute power supplies and loads evenly across rails.
5. All battery sets for a panel must be the same capacity (AH), same manufacturer, and same manufacturing date code.
The Table below illustrates the combinations of power supplies and batteries that meet all the power supply rules.
