  • Page 5: Presentation

    PRESENTATION PRX is a family of charging rectifiers in single phase configuration with integrated monitoring that are designed for wall mounting. The charging rectifier is constructed using plug-in rectifier modules for simple maintenance and high flexibility and availability. Its compact design allows it to be used even in confined spaces. The clear display and well-arranged system of menus of the monitoring unit make it easy and pleasant to work with.

  • Page 9: Functional Description

    FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION GENERAL PRX is a complete rectifier with integrated monitoring. Most functions are handled by the monitoring unit and are described in the Manual for monitoring unit PCM2. Only the functions that feature at a general rectifier level are described here. FRONT PANEL The front panel includes the operator panel, mains breaker and voltmeter terminal.
  • Page 10: Float Charging

    4.5.2 Float charging Float charging is the normal operating mode determined by the battery. The voltage level is to be set according to the battery manufacturer instructions. For more information, see the Manual for monitoring unit PCM2. 4.5.3 Equalizing charging Equalizing charging means charging with raised voltage level over a limited period.
  • Page 11: Operation

    OPERATION GENERAL The bulk of the operation is associated to the monitoring unit. This is described in the Manual for monitoring unit PCM2. Other operation is detailed in this section. MAINS FEED The mains breaker handles the mains feed to the rectifier modules. Note that the breaker only cuts the mains feed to the rectifier modules.
  • Page 12: Voltmeter Terminals

    VOLTMETER TERMINALS When measuring the battery voltage you should avoid measuring directly at the battery terminals due to the risk of arcing in the event of a possible short circuit. Use the short-circuit protected voltmeter terminal on the front panel instead. The voltmeter terminal fits a standard 4 mm measuring pin.
  • Page 13: Installation Instructions

    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING! This product contains dangerous voltage that when touched can cause electric shock, burns or death. Protective earth must always be connected in a reliable way to avoid the risk of live parts in the equipment in the event of faults. No live parts are permitted during installation. The product must be installed by qualified personnel (see 2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS) section.
  • Page 14: Earthing

    recommended that you remove the rectifier modules when installing. 6.5.2 Earthing For earth and screen connections, use the earth bar available in the connection area, see adjacent figure. There is an additional earth terminal specially designed for the incoming mains cable in direct connection to the mains terminal block. For potential equalization in connection with the cable inlet there is a hole designed for an M8 bolt intended for a ring cable shoe.
  • Page 15: Commissioning

    COMMISSIONING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING! This product contains dangerous voltage that when touched can cause electric shock, burns or death. All contact safety devices must be fitted during operation. PREPERATORY INSPECTION Check that the equipment is free from damage, correctly fitted and that all the ventilation openings are free from obstacles.
  • Page 16: Check Of Settings

    When the battery is charged to a level where the “High current” alarm is no longer active, you should check that the actual output voltage conforms with the set float charging voltage, see section 8.1.2 Check of charging voltage. CHECK OF SETTINGS Each time the monitoring unit has been without voltage, the built-in clock must be set with the current date and time, see the Manual for monitoring unit PCM2.
  • Page 17: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE ANNUAL INSPECTION 8.1.1 General In addition to these instructions, you must observe the instructions for maintenance in the Manual for monitoring unit PCM2 and the battery manufacturer's maintenance instructions. 8.1.2 Check of charging voltage Connect a measuring instrument to the voltmeter terminal (see section 5.5 VOLTMETER TERMINAL).
  • Page 18: Fault Tracing

    FAULT TRACING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING! This product contains dangerous voltage that when touched can cause electric shock, burns or death. Service/maintenance work that involves working with removed contact protection devices may only be carried out by authorised service personnel (see section 2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS).
