NAN. Depanaj

The AE-1500-48 is equipped with several protection features to ensure safe operation. If the unit is not functioning as expected, consider the following:

  • Pa gen pouvwa pwodiksyon:
    • Check AC input power connection and ensure the source is active.
    • Verify the remote ON/OFF function is not engaged in the OFF state.
    • Check for activation of Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Over Load Protection (OLP), or Over Temperature Protection (OTP). These protections will shut down the output.
  • Sòti Voltage Incorrect:
    • Verify the V-Adj potentiometer setting.
    • If using programmable control, check the communication settings and commands.
    • Ensure remote sense lines are correctly connected and not reversed.
  • Overheating / Fan Noise:
    • Check for blocked ventilation openings or dirty fans.
    • Ensure ambient temperature is within specified operating range.
    • A fan failure will trigger protection and may shut down the unit.
  • Power OK Signal:
    • If the Power OK signal is not active, it indicates an issue with the power supply's output or internal status. Refer to the protection mechanisms.
