  • Page 33: Functional Description

    7 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The MIPe rectifiers and converters are switch mode modules suitable for charging nickel-cadmium or lead-acid batteries while supplying DC loads. The rectifier/converters can be also used without batteries as direct power supplies. 7.1 OPERATING SEQUENCES Example on rectifier with associated battery Mains power ON –...
  • Page 34: Charge Modes

    7.2 CHARGE MODES The following battery charge modes are available (depending on the equipment): Floating charge Floating charge compensates for the self-discharge of the battery and, in normal operation, maintains the battery in a fully charged condition. High rate charge (or equalizing charge) High rate charge restores the battery to full capacity.
  • Page 35: Cossmic Slot" Generic Control And Alarm Unit - Slot (A1)

    The mains voltage is applied to the rectifier or converter module input via the upstream circuit-opening devices. The rectifier/converter is then in service, provided no fault has been detected and/or stored by the monitoring systems. The AC/DC rectifies the mains voltage (or the DC/DC module converts the DC input voltage into a DC output voltage).
