1.4 Power

For use at voltages consistently below 200V, we strongly

recommend the use of a supply transformer.

Power supply The power supply requirements for the AUTOLITH TP are:
Frequency Phase Voltage Current *
50 Hz 1~ 230 V (+ 10%) 16 A
50 Hz 3~ 230 V (+ 10%) 12 A
50 Hz 3N~ 400 V (+ 10%) 9A
60 Hz 1~ 240 V (+6% - 10%) 16 A
60 Hz 3~ 208 V (+6% - 10%) 12 A

* Exclusive of peripheral equipment

Voltage according to:

• IEC 38 (50 Hz)

• ANSI X4.11 (60 Hz)

Please also refer to ‘Requirements for Power Supply’ on pages 8 &

9 in the Chapter 3 – Pre-Installation Manual.

Chiller Unit Heat Gain Input to room : 850 watts approx.

Initially 2500 BTU’s falling off to 1300 BTU’s after 30 minutes, then
reducing to approximately 500 BTU’s. These figures are per hour.

Conformity The AUTOLITH TP conforms to the following regulations:

• DIN VDE 0113 T1 • UL 775 (graphic arts

equipment)
• Machine Directive • UL 1950
89/392,/EEC
• EN 50081-1 • CSA22.2 No. 950 (cUL)

The AUTOLITH TP conforms to all CE regulations and guidelines:

CE
Power consumption Power consumption of the AUTOLITH TP is:

Total installed ± 3680W

Processing ± 3220 W
Stand-by ± 500 W

Room Loading 5100 Btu/Hr (5.4 MJ)

The above figures should be used to calculate the room loading

based on the average number of plates processed per hour.

Electrical connection The AUTOLITH TP has been provided with both an On-line Static
to imagers Interface (OSI) enabling synchronization and in-line connection
with other devices, such as imagers.

For more information on OSI, please contact your local Agfa

dealer.

The safety low voltage of the device connected must conform to

the SELV requirements
Defined in IEC950.
