There is no need to add water or to clean terminals. It has a low self discharge rate which eliminates the need for equalizing charges. The water loss throughout the life due to gassing is roughly 0.1% of the total electrolyte present in the cell. Introduction

5. V ALVE -R EGULATED LEAD - ACID (VLRA) B ATTERIE S Batteries lose some charge during as well as during the period prior to installation. A battery should be installed and given a freshening charge after receipt as soon as possible. Freshening Charge Equalizing Charge  An equalizing charge is a special charge given to a battery when non-uniformity in voltage has developed between cells.  It is given to restore all cells to a fully charged condition.

6. V ALVE -R EGULATED LEAD - ACID (VLRA) B ATTERIES A pilot cell is selected in the series string to reflect the general condition of all cells in the battery. The cell selected should be the lowest cell voltage in the series string following the initial charge. Reading and recording pilot cell voltage monthly serves as an indicator of battery condition between scheduled overall individual cell readings. Pilot Cell

7. SMPS (S WITCH M ODE P OWER S UPPLY ) SMPS means Switch Mode Power Supply. This is used for D.C-to-D.C conversion. This works on the principle of switching regulation. The SMPS system is highly reliable, efficient, noiseless and compact because the switching is done at very high rate in the order of several KHz to MHz. What is SMPS?

10. A LTERNATOR An alternator is an electrical generator that converts mechanical energy to electrical energy in the form of alternating current. electrical generatoralternating current Based on a modular design, the POWER alternator is sure to respond perfectly to any type of need. These are used in case of power supply failure as a substitute of continuous power supply.

12. OPERATION OF E/A The rotating magnetic field induces an AC voltage in the stator windings. Since the currents in the stator windings vary in step with the position of the rotor, an alternator is a synchronous generator. [1]rotating magnetic fieldAC voltage [1] Alternators used in central power stations also control the field current to regulate reactive power and to help stabilize the power system against the effects of momentary faults.power stationsreactive powerfaults Often there are three sets of stator windings, physically offset so that the rotating magnetic field produces a three phase current, displaced by one-third of a period with respect to each other.three phase

Rectifier modules (A maximum of three modules in extension rack and two each in main rack and auxiliary rack). DC distribution module in each rack. Metering in each rack. Power system controller in main rack. This Power System is of multi rack type and consists of the following:

14. F UNCTIONAL D ESCRIPTION OF R ECTIFIER The SMPS 50V-5600W rectifier is a state-of-the-art switch-mode power conversion equipment. The unit consists of two cascaded power converters performing power factor correction and DC/DC conversion. The power stages are synchronized and working with constant switching frequency of 100 kHz. The rectified AC mains voltage is processed first in the power factor corrector circuit, which is based on a boost topology. The boost converter has the inherent advantage of continuous input current waveform, which relaxes the input filter requirements. The output of the boost converter is a stabilized 400V DC voltage.

15. F UNCTIONAL D ESCRIPTION OF R ECTIFIER Conversion of the stabilized high voltage output of the power factor corrector circuit is necessary to generate the isolated low voltage output and to provide the required protection functions for telecommunication application. These tasks are achieved in the DC/DC converter circuit, which is based on a full-bridge topology. The full-bridge circuit is operated by phase-shift pulse with modulation with current mode control. Proper operation of the power converters is managed by individual controller circuits and supervised by the housekeeping electronics.

16. F UNCTIONAL D ESCRIPTION OF P OWER S YSTEM C ONTROLLER Power system controller is designed to control the modes of operation of rectifiers, acknowledge and displays the status of rectifiers and system and controls parameters of rectifiers. The controller accepts signal from individual rectifiers through 8-pin telephone jack and controls the operation of each individual rectifiers. The mode of operation of rectifier modules depends on the coded signal M1 and M2 from the controller. These signals are decoded to display whether the modules are in auto float/charge or fail condition. The total battery current can be suitably programmed to limit the current supplied from the modules through current programming pin in modules.
