Introduction 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Liebert AC4 is ideal for coordinated control of systems with redundant equipment, such as multiple environmental units or pumps. When the AC4 controller detects an alarm in an operating device, the AC4 enables a standby device and controls the device in alarm as configured, either leaving that device operating or disabling it. The AC4 controller can also balance usage of devices by rotating units through Operating and Standby modes according to a user-defin

Introduction 1.8 Typical Sequence Figure 4 shows a typical sequence of how the AC4 functions after detecting a change in a monitored device. Many responses depend on configuration settings. This example shows what happens when a digital input changes stateassuming the input is defined as alarmableand when the condition returns to normal.

Installation 2.0 INSTALLATION 2.1 Installation Considerations The AC4 must be installed indoors and may be mounted on the surface of a wall or flush-mounted, depending on the users application, the location of equipment to be connected and the type of wall the unit will be mounted on. The AC4 should be mounted where it can be easily accessed. On-site personnel would access the unit through the LCD on its front cover or the service terminal connected to the RS232 port. In addition to the comm

Installation 2.2 Surface-Mounting the AC4 NOTE Removing the conduit knockouts before mounting the AC4 on the wall will ease installation and prevent strain on the mounting hardware and wall. It is imperative to remove the knockouts if the unit is to be flush-mounted. After determining where to place the unit, check to ensure that you have all the hardware required to install the panel on the surface of a wall. Obtain the needed tools and material. Required tools Electric drill (if surface i

Installation 2.3 Flush-Mounting the AC4 NOTE Removing the conduit knockouts before mounting the AC4 on the wall will ease installation and prevent strain on the mounting hardware and wall. It is imperative to remove the knockouts if the unit is to be flush-mounted. The rectangular access doors on the top and bottom of the AC4 must be reversed so they slide the opposite direction. Leaving the doors as shipped from the factory prevents them from being opened when the panel is flush mounted in

Installation 2.4 Connect Power to the AC4 The AC4 requires 24VAC for proper operation. Liebert recommends using the optional Transformer Module manufactured by Liebert or another UL-approved class 2 power unit to obtain proper voltage. If the power unit is not a class 2 circuit, it must be protected with an IEC 5 x 20mm time lag 2A fuse. For information, consult your local dealer, Liebert representative or the Liebert Worldwide Support Group. WARNING ! Check that power is removed from wires

Wiring and Connections 3.0 WIRING AND CONNECTIONS CAUTION ! Switch OFF electric power to the AC4 before installing any wiring to the unit or changing input or output connections. The Power On/Off switch is in the top left corner of the unit. 3.1 Wiring Specifications Input and output connections to the AC4 may be made in any orderit is not necessary, for example, to make all input connections before making any output connections. Use copper conductors only for all wiring. Table 4 Wiring spec

Wiring and Connections 3.2 Connecting Digital Inputs and Outputs The digital inputs and outputs are found on the lower right side of the AC4s printed wiring assembly board. This section describes how to connect devices to the AC4s inputs and outputs. Each input is tied to an output with the same number: Input 1 is tied to Output 1 (default name: Device_1) Input 2 is tied to Output 2 (default name: Device_2) Input 3 is tied to Output 3 (default name: Device_3) Input 4 is tied to Output

Wiring and Connections 3.2.3 Setting the Digital Output Jumpers Digital output jumpers (four) Each digital output has an associated jumper to define its operation when power is interrupted. This puts the AC4 in a fail-safe mode and ensures proper functioning when the board has no power. The AC4 comes from the factory with all digital output jumpers in the OFF position (normally open). The jumper setting for each digital output can be changed to ON (nor- mally closed). The settings are shown
