EN54-4 Boxed Power Supply Unit (PSU) Installation Instructions


THIS EQUIPMENT MUST ONLY BE INSTALLED AND MAINTAINED BY A SUITABLY SKILLED AND TECHNICALLY
COMPETENT PERSON. THE PSUS ARE CLASS 1 EQUIPMENT AND MUST BE EARTHED.

BF362-3 is a boxed Mains to regulated DC power supply providing 3 A @ 24 Vdc. Combining the functions of a power
supply unit, battery charging unit and battery monitoring unit, it is fully compliant with EN 54-4:1997 + A1:2002 +
A2:2006 and conforms to the relevant EU-Directives and EU-Regulation: (EU) No. 305/2011 – Construction Product
Regulation; 2006/95/ECC low voltage directive and 2004/108/ECC EMC directive.
The PSU is an approved product by the VdS and carrys the CE mark.

INSTALLATION
Location
The power supply must be sited indoors on a dry, flat surface in an area that is well ventilated. Ideally the panel
indicators should be at eye level and the ambient light level should allow the status of the indicators to be clearly seen.

Mounting
Using the five mounting holes provided, mount the metal base securely onto a wall. Assess the condition and
construction of the wall and use suitable screw fixings. The mounting holes are suitable for use with No.8-10 or
4-5 mm countersunk screws. Any dust or swarf created during the mounting process must be kept out of the enclosure
and care must be taken not to damage any wiring or components.

Wiring and Cable Entry


All wiring should be installed in accordance with the current edition of the IEE Wiring Regs
(BS 7671), or the relevant national standards. The requirement for the Mains supply to the
panel is fixed wiring, using 3-core cable (no less than 1 mm2 and no greater than 2.5 mm2),
or a suitable three conductor system fed from an isolating switched spur, fused at 3 A.
In order to maintain cable segregation, the incoming Mains cable should be fed into the
panel via the top centre knockouts (provided on the metal base). Knockouts should be
removed with a sharp, light tap using a 6 mm flat-bladed screwdriver, as shown in the
diagram (see right). Always ensure that if a knockout is removed, the hole is filled with a
good quality 20 mm cable gland. Any unused knockouts must be securely blanked off.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONNECT THE MAINS SUPPLY TO THE POWER SUPPLY UNLESS ALL
COMPONENTS ARE SECURELY INSTALLED IN ITS ENCLOSURE!
Terminate the Mains cable at the power supply’s connector block CONN1 (see Figure 1 below).

EN 54-4, EN 50131-6 Boxed Power Supply Unit (PSU)


WARNING: THIS PSU MUST BE INSTALLED AND MAINTAINED BY A SUITABLY SKILLED AND TECHNICALLY COMPETENT
PERSON. THIS PSU IS A PIECE OF CLASS 1 PERMANENTLY CONNECTED EQUIPMENT AND MUST BE EARTHED.
The BF560-24 is a boxed Mains input to regulated DC PSU, providing 1.5 A @ 24 V d.c. nominal, designed for use with
fire and security systems. Combining the functions of a PSU, battery charging unit and battery monitoring unit, it is
fully compliant with EN 54-4 + A1 + A2 and has been tested to comply electrically/environmentally with EN 50131-6
(Type A, up to Grade 4, Environmental Class II) and conforms to the relevant EU-Directives and EU-Regulations: (EU)
No. 305/2011 – Construction Product Regulation; 2014/35/EU low voltage directive and 2014/30/EU EMC directive.
The PSU is an approved product by BRE. Approvals are pending for AFNOR and VdS European notified bodies.
INSTALLATION
Location
The PSU must be installed indoors, positioned to avoid accidental damage, and MUST NOT be subjected to dust,
conductive or corrosive gases or liquids, nor subject to temperatures, input voltages and electrical loads outside the
stated operating range. Ideally, the indicators should be at eye level and the ambient light level should allow the
status of the indicators to be clearly visible.
Mounting
Using the five mounting holes provided, mount the plastic base securely onto a vertical wall. Assess the condition and
construction of the wall and use suitable screw fixings for the in-service weight of the product. The mounting holes
are suitable for use with No.8-10 or ø4-5 mm countersunk screws. Any dust or swarf created during the mounting
process must be kept out of the enclosure and due care must be taken not to damage any wiring or components.
Wiring and Cable Entry
All wiring should be installed in accordance with the current edition of the IEE Wiring Regs (BS 7671), or relevant local
and national standards. The requirement for the Mains supply to the PSU is fixed wiring (≥1.0 mm2, <2.5 mm2), either
using 3-core cable, or a suitable three conductor system fed from an isolating switched fused spur at 3 A, or a 6 A Type
B circuit breaker to IEC/EN 60898-1. The Mains supply must be exclusive to the PSU and be reliably earthed at the
indicated earthing point.
For compliance with EN 54-4 the PSU must be closely coupled with the CIE.
HINT. As an alternative to a switched fused spur, a double-pole isolating A C
switch (S) with 3 mm air gaps on the contacts & switching L & N only, may be S
used in the Mains feed from the Main Distribution Board (A) to the PSU (C), ≥ 1.0 mm2 < 2.5 mm2
providing it meets the appropriate wiring regulations (see drawing right).
In order to maintain cable segregation from other cables, the incoming Mains cable should be fed into the panel via the
top right-hand side of the enclosure. Drill out suitable holes in the enclosure using a suitable hole saw. Always ensure
that if a hole is drilled out, it is filled with a good quality 20 mm strain relief, cable gland. Any unused holes must be
securely blanked off.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONNECT THE MAINS SUPPLY TO THE PSU UNLESS ALL COMPONENTS
ARE SECURELY INSTALLED IN ITS ENCLOSURE!
Terminate the Mains cable at the PSU’s connector block CONN1 (see Figure 1 below).
