    Access to alarm and rectifier control signals is accomplished by plugging an alarm cable into a rear-mounted connector as shown in Figure 18. The alarm cable available from Eltek Valere has a part number of CA31212181178. See the section “Alarm and Signal Cable” on page 15 for more information on alarms.
  • Page 24 Connect the first cable from the output point of the top power shelf to the input point of the next shelf. Repeat this procedure until all shelves are connected in a daisy chain. In addition, a termination cable (CA210082917) must be inserted into the I C input port of the top shelf.
  • Page 25: Turn-Up

    3. Turn-Up After all input and output connections have been secured and checked, begin turn- up as follows: 1. Activate all input breakers. 2. When input breakers are on, install rectifiers sequentially by sliding each rectifier into position and closing the latch as shown in Figure 22. NOTICE: Rectifier latches must be open for installation.
  • Page 26: Replacement Items

    4. Replacement Items The controller and rectifiers are designed as modular, field-replaceable units. The following sections outline the procedure to replace these items. NIC-Series Controller The controller is hot swappable and can be removed without affecting operation of the rectifiers. Remove existing controller from the shelf and replace with controller of same type (NIC100x series).
  • Page 27 5. Troubleshooting Problems and Solutions In case of an alarm from the controller, verify the following (for details, refer to the Controller Installation and Operation manual): 1. All AC and DC connections are secured properly. 2. All rectifiers are installed and seated properly. 3.
