DC UPS


dcups

Features

  • 1350 Watts of power at 288V DC available in 30 second intervals; enough time to bring a crane to a halt in a controlled manner.
  • Up to 10 successive power failures can be handled safely with no recharge interval.
  • Three-phase variable frequency power inverter for proportional control of a thruster-applied electric brake.
  • On-board 8-bit microcontroller for maintaining batteries and switching 250V power as required.
  • Twin 13 Amp·Hour batteries supply 24V DC input power.
  • Digital temperature sensor monitors battery temperature. This is necessary as the customer’s operating environment has temperature variations from 20°C to 60°C. The charging voltage of lead-acid batteries is temperature dependent, and without careful charge control, battery life can be dramatically shortened.
  • Status indicators to the operator (remote location) provide information as to the state of the batteries and the charging system.
  • Surge suppressors protect all delicate circuitry. This unit can withstand surges in excess of 10 times the supply voltage. Surges are a common occurrence due to the presence of inductive loads such as electromagnets and hoist motors.

Description

The DC UPS is designed to run in a DC-only environment. The operating voltage is 250V DC. Power is quite dirty, subject to large spikes, continuous surges & sags. AC power is not available.
