Internal Interface Card PowerWalker 10120528 — Internal adapter card, black, PCI-like connector

PowerWalker 10120528 is an internal interface adapter card designed to provide dry-contact signals and board-level connectivity for compatible UPS systems and controllers. The card is supplied in black and features a slim 1.6 mm PCB with a PCI-like connector intended for internal module installation in UPS units, server racks and industrial control equipment. It enables monitoring and control functions such as remote shutdown and status signalling when paired with the appropriate PowerWalker UPS models and an external 12V/24V DC source for signal activation.

Advantages

The AS/400 card delivers clean dry contacts for reliable signalling of UPS conditions including failure, alarm, main fail, bypass, battery low and UPS on. Its low-profile board-level design allows integration inside compatible UPS enclosures without occupying external slots. The card supports straightforward integration with PLCs and signal control panels for centralized monitoring or automation systems. Pin assignment and wiring details are documented in the product user manual to ease installation.

Suitable for

• Integration into compatible PowerWalker UPS models for remote monitoring and control
• Connection to PLCs or building management and signal control panels
• Server racks and industrial equipment requiring internal interface modules
• Applications that require dry-contact signals for external alarm or shutdown systems

When it may not be suitable

The card requires an external 12V or 24V DC source to generate high signal levels, so it is not a standalone power device. It is intended for internal installation and will not function as an external or hot-swappable interface without an appropriate enclosure or adapter. Compatibility is limited to supported PowerWalker UPS models; using it with unsupported hardware may result in no communication or improper signalling.

Key specifications

• Form factor: internal adapter card, slim PCB (approx. 1.6 mm thickness)
• Connector type: PCI-like board-level connector for internal mounting
• Signal type: dry-contact outputs for UPS status and alarms
• Supported control signals: UPS failure, Alarm, Main Fail, Bypass, Battery Low, UPS On
• External supply: requires 12V or 24V DC external source for high signal activation
• Colour: black

How to use

Install the PowerWalker AS/400 card into the designated internal slot of a compatible PowerWalker UPS following the manufacturer’s safety procedures and power isolation steps. Connect the dry-contact outputs to the PLC, signal control panel or remote shutdown circuitry according to the pin assignment in the user manual. Provide the required external 12V/24V DC supply to the interface where indicated so that the card can produce the correct high signal levels for remote shutdown and monitoring. After wiring, power up the UPS and verify that each status contact responds correctly to UPS events.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility with your specific PowerWalker UPS model and the internal slot type
• Ensure availability of an external 12V or 24V DC supply for signal activation
• Verify that your monitoring system or PLC accepts dry-contact inputs and matches the card’s signal mapping
• Check the user manual for pin assignment and installation instructions before ordering

Usage recommendations

Use this internal adapter card with supported PowerWalker UPS models listed in the product documentation and connect it to PLCs or control panels for centralized alarm handling and remote shutdown. Follow the manual for correct pin wiring and provide a stable 12V/24V DC source. Test each signal condition after installation to confirm reliable operation within your monitoring or automation setup.
