Page 9: Model
1.1.1. Tag Information A device information tag/nameplate is attached to the eleXsys, as seen in Figure 1, with all relevant information about the device included. The information is model specific this tag will include the model of the device as well as a serial number, identifiable by eleXsys Energy, and a date of manufacture. -
Page 10: Features
The DC voltage range of the EEdS is 600 - 1000VDC. For three-phase operation the DC voltage range is typically 680- 980VDC depending on the AC output voltage required. 1.3.3. Frequency Frequency can be configured for either 50Hz or 60Hz. Commercial-In-Confidence Page 9 of 58 © eleXsys R&D Pty Ltd Apr 2020... -
Page 11: Four Quadrant Operation
The EEdS can be used as a continuously dynamic power factor correction device to maintain unity power factor for an installation. The generation of VARs for power factor correction is continuous not stepped as in standard power factor correct products that use capacitors. Commercial-In-Confidence Page 10 of 58 © eleXsys R&D Pty Ltd Apr 2020... -
Page 12: Power Flow Regulation
EleXsys may be utilised as a line interactive uninterruptable power supply (UPS). For example, if the main grid supply is lost, the eleXsys EEdS with a battery bank will maintain supply to the connected load by changing its operation from current mode to voltage mode within one 50 Hz cycle, and provide kW and kVARs to all loads. -
Page 13: Communication And Data Logging
The EEdS has non-volatile memory to store logged data and parameters for seven days internally. When used with the EEMS, any logged data is transferred each 30 minutes to a local SQL database and master database on a remote central server.

Page 26: Installation Environment
The eleXsys is a 19-inch rack mounted unit ONLY and is not suitable for the outdoor usage. It is necessary that the rack is fully secured, and an IP55 rated box is used if the device is to be installed outdoors. The eleXsys should be mounted on a shelf or side rails, and secured, with the four M6 bolts supplied, to the front of the unit providing pressure into the rack. -
Page 27: Installation Specifications
If the eleXsys is used in conjunction with batteries, it should be mounted at the top of the battery rack on a rack shelf or side rails to alleviate battery heating. Additionally, space around the device for ventilation should be taken into account. -
