[comp.dcom.sys.cisco] Power consumption

C.Chaundy@its.unimelb.EDU.AU (09/14/90)

Can someone advise me of the maximum power consumption of a fully
configured AGS+?  I want to dimension some UPS's for our site.

The actual power utilization depends on the configuration.  The maximum
power utilization is 60 amps at 120 volts.

So *that's* why the fan is so strong...  ;-)

I must apologize, sometimes I find it faster to dig up answers to
questions that I don't remember the answers to off the mail archives
when I am working away from appropriate manuals. I did that today for
the AGS+ power question and I forwarded a message that had a typo in
it, that particular message had been corrected in a later message
which I did not see in the archive file. Sorry for the confusion, and
many thanks to the dozens of people who have sent me sometimes
humorous replies. ;-)

Here is this question answered by the engineer that does the
specifications/certifications for the power supplies we use:
 ---
 The actual power ratings for the AGS+ product are 7 amps @ 110 VAC
and 3.5 Amps @ 220 VAC.  These are listed in the new installation
guide.

  For UPS information, the AGS+ power supply will hold output for
approximately 20 msec. after power loss at nominal line voltage 
(derate to 6 msec. at low line - 95 VAC-).
  -------
 The 'new installation' guide mentioned is a draft document version  not yet
available.

Again, sorry for the confusion and extra net traffic this has caused.
