NOTE Two additional rack-mount ears can be ordered as an option. Use them to secure the rear of the chassis in
high-vibration environments.
Wiring Requirements

WARNING
Safety First!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your Moxa PowerTrans Switch.
Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical codes
dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size.
If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your
equipment.
Grounding Moxa PowerTrans Switch
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the
ground connection from the ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.

Wiring the Power Inputs

The PT series of switches supports dual redundant power supplies:

“Power Supply 1 (PWR1)” and “Power Supply 2 (PWR2)”. The connections for PWR1, PWR2 and the RELAY are
located on the terminal block. The front view of the terminal block connectors are shown below.
Wiring the Relay Contact

Each PT switch has one relay output. Refer to the next section for detailed instructions on how to connect the
wires to the terminal block connector, and how to attach the terminal block connector to the terminal block
receptor.

FAULT: The relay contact of the 10-pin terminal block connector are used to detect user-configured events. The
two wires attached to the RELAY contacts form an open circuit when a user-configured event is triggered. If a
user-configured event does not occur, the RELAY circuit will be closed.

Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs

Each PT switch has two sets of power inputs: power input 1 and power input 2.

STEP 1: Insert the dual set positive/negative DC wires into PWR1 and PWR2 terminals (+ → pins 1, 9; – → pins
2, 10). Or insert the L/N AC wires into PWR1 and PWR2 terminals (L → pin 1, 9; N →pin 2, 10)
STEP 2: To keep the DC or AC wires from pulling loose, use a screwdriver to tighten the wire-clamp screws on the
front of the terminal block connector.

NOTE

1. The PT switch with dual power supplies uses PWR2 as the first priority power input by default.

Rack Mounting Instructions

1. Elevated Operating Ambient: If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be
given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
2. Reduced Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required for
safe peration of the equipment is not compromised.
3. Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not
achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
4. Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and
the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
5. Reliable Earthing: Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power
strips).
 Restricted Access Locations

This equipment is intended to be used in Restricted Access Locations, such as a computer room, with access
limited to SERVICE PERSONAL or USERS who have been instructed on how to handle the metal chassis of
equipment that is so hot that special protection may be needed before touching it. The location should only be
accessible with a key or through a secure identity system.
External metal parts of this equipment are extremely hot!! Before touching the equipment, you must take
special precautions to protect your hands and body from serious injury.

ATTENTION

1. This device is only for indoor use and Pollution degree 2.

2. Conductors rated to withstand at least 105°C must be used for the Power Supply Terminal.
3. When wiring the relay contact, digital input and power inputs, we suggest using the cable type – AWG
(American Wire Gauge) 16-24 and the corresponding pin type cable terminals. The connector must be able to
withstand torque at a maximum 5 pound-inches.
4. The equipment has a separate protective earthing terminal on the chassis that must be permanently connected
to earth ground to adequately ground the chassis and protect the operator from electrical hazards. To avoid
risks of electric shock, do not replace or remove the protective conductor.
5. The IP rating is not part of the safety certification.
6. This device must be installed within a suitable enclosure.
7. The cable that is connected to the field wiring terminals must be able to withstand at least 75°C.

Responsible Risk

If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment
may be impaired. The manufacturer is not responsible for any accident caused by the scenario mentioned above.
