Description
Introduction
The LINEAGE® 2000 Evolutionary Control System (ECS)
Battery Plant is shown in Figure 1-1. The ECS battery plant
provides power for the using equipment as well as float and
recharge capability for the battery reserve. The plant operates
from a nominal 208/240 Vac, 50/60 Hz source. It offers a 300
ampere total plant capacity with a nominal -48 Vdc output. The
ECS battery plant is mounted on a battery stand which provides
space for one 48-volt string of VR Series batteries. The ECS
plant is capable of operating in a batteryless mode, making it
suitable for those applications where battery backup is not
necessary or is provided by an uninterruptible power supply
(UPS).
The ECS battery plant uses state-of-the-art technology to
achieve dramatic equipment size and weight reduction and to
minimize maintenance. These advantages are realized by the
application of Switch-Mode Rectifier (SR) and Valve-Regulated
(VR) battery technologies and a unique plug-in rectifier and
circuit breaker design.
The ECS battery plant is designed as a totally integrated energy
system package. It is a compact and complete system containing
a controller, rectifiers, circuit breaker distribution panel, and
optional automatic battery disconnect/reconnect (LVD/R)
feature and batteries. The plant is a modular front-access design
for ease of installation, growth and maintenance. This power
system is ideal for use in confined areas and enables one to
utilize valuable floor space in a more efficient manner.
Initial Bay
The initial bay will accommodate a maximum of six
LINEAGE® 2000 SR Series 50 ampere rectifiers, a
LINEAGE® 2000 ECS controller, a distribution panel capable
of accepting a maximum of 42 circuit breakers of 10, 20, or 30
ampere capacity, or 20 circuit breakers of 45 and 60 ampere
capacity, a low voltage battery disconnect/reconnect feature and
one string of LINEAGE® 2000 VR Series 48-volt, 375-ampere
hour batteries.
