    900CE Installation, Operation and Maintenance 1.3 900CE Applications The 900CE is flexible and may be used for a wide variety of DC power applications. This section describes a few typical applications to illustrate the different features of the 900CE. Constant Voltage Source In Voltage Mode, the 900CE regulates the voltage of a given DC output channel.
  • Page 13: Battery Emulation

    Battery Emulation With its computer control capabilities, the 900CE can be programmed to emulate a battery. To do so, the 900CE would first be put into constant Voltage Mode at the desired state of charge. As current is drawn from the 900CE, the voltage would be lowered as if the “battery”...

  • Page 16: Isolation Fault Detection

    Prior to contactor closure, this circuit monitors the impedance between the positive and negative busses and the chassis. Once the contactors have been closed and the Unit Under Test (UUT) is connected to the 900CE, the isolation monitor is disabled to prevent nuisance trips with low impedance loads.
  • Page 17 While this is happening, the Ready light (green) is flashing. The 900CE will stay in this state until the voltage threshold is reached, or for a maximum of nine (9) seconds, after which the unit declares a Standby Fault.
  • Page 18: Dc Converter Functions & Controls

    Once the fault is cleared, the light will return to a steady yellow indicating the circuit is ready to resume monitoring and the 900CE lockout has been released. 2.1.3 DC Converter Functions & Controls The DC Converter monitors load connections, processes power from the Intermediate DC Bus for the load, and provides a local control interface for the user.

    4.1 Planning Before you begin a test with the 900CE, you will need to decide on certain parameters. The following checklist may be used as a guideline for preparation: What load configuration is required?

  • Page 32: External Parallel Configuration

    Figure 4.3 – Parallel Configuration 4.4 Choosing Operating Limits The 900CE allows the user to set temporary upper and lower operating limits for voltage, current and power that are more restrictive than the absolute system limits defined above. In many cases, the user may want to use these more restrictive limits in order to protect the load or avoid unsafe conditions.

    3. The sum of the upper and lower power limits must be no greater than the maximum power for the set voltage limit. These values are ±250 kW, ±225 kW, and ±200 kW for 750V, 825V, and 900V limits, respectively. 11477-03-D Page 33 of 56 Webasto Charging Systems, Inc.

  • Page 35: Operating The System

    The flashing LEDs are controlled so that the user is reminded to check or reset all settings in the appropriate order. In general, whenever there are flashing LEDs, the 900CE is expecting the user to make a choice or verify a setting and will not allow certain other actions until that step is completed.

    Remote Voltage Sense (RVS) Operation: 1) Independent Mode The output voltage of each channel of the 900CE can be regulated directly at the load, eliminating excessive voltage drop across the cables, which carry high current between the 900CE and the load and yet maintain greater voltage accuracy. This is accomplished by utilizing the V Sense connectors provided on the front panel user I/O strip.
