Principles of Operation Introduction The RM30110A is a telecommunications grade rectifier with the following features: Hot pluggable Forced Air Cooled Thermally Protected Power Factor Corrected Wide input AC Voltage Constant Power Output Limit ...
Power and Current Limit The rectifier automatically limits its output as load demand reaches it maximum capacity. Output Over-Voltage Shut Down The rectifier will automatically shutdown if the output voltage exceeds the preset value. The Over Voltage Shut Down point reduces by about 1V at full load to ensure the rectifier producing the Over Voltage Shut Down turns off first.
1.11.1 Voltage Control The rectifier voltages are set by the system monitor via the serial communications bus. The rectifier voltage can be set to any value between 90V and 155V. The monitor operates in a number of modes that will affect the rectifier voltage setting. Float Voltage Mode (AVC Off) The monitor sets the float voltage to its target level at start up, and then resends this same level at regular intervals thereafter.
The rectifier contains components at High Temperatures that may burn if touched Rectifier Shelf The RM30110A rectifier must only be used in conjunction with an appropriate Rectronic designed or Rectronic approved system or rectifier shelf. AC Supply Surge Protection The AC supply that feeds the rectifiers should have surge protection installed to meet levels defined for terminal equipment.
Rectifier Addressing Each rectifier in the system has a unique address which identifies it to the monitor. This address is set by the position in the rectifier shelf and the number of the shelf. It is read by the rectifier from the backplane PCB and will change if the rectifier is moved to a new location.
