Yeah, if you really want to accurately comply this is the only product I could find that fills the bill:

Your original post had something about a thermal-magnetic disconnect, are you wanting to do that also? Maybe the best thing would be to wall mount a small non metallic enclosure with a little piece of DIN rail inside, and put a power supply and DC circuit breaker on the DIN rail, maybe an AC breaker as well. Run an AC cord out one gland, and your DC wiring out another gland. Put a warning sticker on the box. I’m thinking this has the best chance of satisfying inspectors. Although if it’s going in a room with restricted access, like a server room, you should get a little more leeway. Still, if this is Kane county, they are so anal. Plus if it’s a school or government building, maybe more rules. The other thing that comes to mind is, if the radio manufacturer shipped you POE style supplies, is there an adapter that would let you use those?

Was trying to have as little customization as I could get because it's going to a customer that paid $10k for a licensed link. Would a quick disconnect terminal pass code\insurance muster? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Ken Hohhof via Af" <af@afmug.com> To: af@afmug.com Sent: Friday, January 2, 2015 9:22:12 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] -48 vDC Power Supply Recommendations? Why not just use the one from Baltic and crimp some quick disconnect terminals on the wires? Trango used to sell a desktop power supply like you describe, but they replaced it with this which is just an open frame power supply in a box: http://support.trangosys.com/entries/24647323-Datasheet-48-Volt-Wall-Mount-Power-Supply-PSUPPLY-WM-48-L- From: Mike Hammett via Af Sent: Friday, January 02, 2015 9:03 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] -48 vDC Power Supply Recommendations? It seems like what I'm looking for doesn't exist. I'm looking for something that looks like a laptop power supply like this http://www.balticnetworks.com/tycon-power-48v-2-5a-120w-desktop-power-supply.html but with screw terminals for the DC. I'd have no problem chopping the end off of the above or using one of those open\DIN power supplies, but chopping off the AC cord at home or a tower site, but this is going at a customer's location. I had assumed the manufacturer was sending a power supply like what I wanted when I ordered, but that wasn't the case. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Mike Hammett via Af" <af@afmug.com> To: "Animal Farm" <af@afmug.com> Sent: Wednesday, December 31, 2014 2:43:33 PM Subject: [AFMUG] -48 vDC Power Supply Recommendations? Looking for recommendations on a -48 vDC power supply. 1.5 amps. Not expected to have any other radios on site or would at least be independent. No batteries or anything. ===== During the final installation, protect the ODU by a magneto-thermal switch (not supplied with the equipment), whose characteristics must comply with the laws in force in one’s country. The typical magneto thermal switch has characteristics at least 48Vdc @1.5A with overcurrent relay class “C” or “K” tripping curve. ===== I'm finding things with long lead times, things at a much higher amperage capacity or things that will require wire nuts to complete. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com
