2000 ECS Battery Plant H569-403
Issue 4 February 1997
Product Description 2 - 7
100-ampere rectifiers. The ECS plant is equipped with two
rectifier shelf assemblies for a total capacity of six SR Series 100
ampere rectifiers. (See the rectifier product manual for
additional information on the shelf and rectifier.)
Batteries
The ECS battery plant is compatible with virtually all flooded
and valve regulated batteries. The Lineage
®
2000 VR Series
battery is designed specifically for use in the ECS battery plant.
Selection of the VR Series battery enables one to maximize
space efficiency and fully realize the benefits of front access,
modular growth, and ease of installation and maintenance
offered by the ECS battery plant system design.
The Lineage
®
2000 VR Series battery is a valve-regulated
design incorporating many of the same technologically
advanced features as the highly acclaimed Lineage
®
2000 Round
Cell battery. It is a compact, totally front access, modular battery
based on a unit cell architecture. The VR Series battery is
currently available in a 2 volt, 375 ampere-hour configuration
for use in the ECS plant. The compact physical dimensions of
the VR battery permit the installation of up to 1500
ampere-hours of 24-volt battery reserve in a single framework
space. (See the battery product manual for additional
information.)
Controller
The ECS controller performs the centralized monitoring,
control, and reporting functions for the ECS battery plant. In the
H569-403, the basic ECS controller monitors and controls a
maximum of six SR 100/+24V rectifiers. The controller,
however, is capable of monitoring up to twelve rectifiers. It also
provides a single interface point for power alarm and status
reporting.
Two optional expansion circuit packs are available to upgrade
the ECS controller: a microcomputer board equipped with a
powerful 16-bit microprocessor, and a datalogger board. The
microcomputer board adds sophisticated firmware features such
as remote communications, alarm history, and statistics. This
board is available as Group 5 or 7 on H569-403. Group 7 is the
same as Group 5, with the addition of a voice response feature.
The datalogger board may be used in conjunction with the
microcomputer option to provide general purpose ac and dc
voltage and current monitoring and control. This board is
available as Group 8 or 9 on H569-403. Group 9 is the same as
