5.1.1 System Module Description The Liebert FS is a modular system composed as follows: • Control Panel • UPS Interconnection Kit • Power Conversion Module • Main Control Module • Flywheel Module • E-Stop (optional-special order) Components are illustrated in Figure 35. Control Panel The Liebert FS uses a control panel as the primary means for an operator to interface with the sys- tem.
5.1.2 Power System The electrical system of the Liebert FS is shown in Figure 36. The schematic shows the Magnetic Levitation Module [see 5.1.7 - Magnetic Levitation Module (MLM)]. The pre-charge resistor and contactor which limit the inrush current into the DC bus capacitors. The six-pulse IGBT power con- verter (IGBT Power Conversion Module (PCM) on page 36) which is controlled by the Power Conversion Module Controller (Power Conversion Module on page 33) and which also monitors and controls the operation of the entire system.
5.1.4 User interfaces Control Panel The Liebert FS uses a Control Panel as the primary means for an operator to interface with the sys- tem. Operating parameter values are displayed and updated in real time. Alarm states and system notices are also displayed when they occur. User configurable system parameters are adjusted via the Control Panel.
System Overview 5.1.6 Power Conversion Module Power Conversion Module Controller (PCMC) The Power Conversion Module Controller is located within the Power Conversion Module. The PCMC uses microprocessor-controlled logic to control the six pulse IGBT solid state switches and monitor the active magnetic levitation system.
5.1.7 Magnetic Levitation Module (MLM) The Magnetic Levitation Module provides control of the active magnetic levitation hardware. The Liebert FS has a unique active magnetic levitation system that fully levitates the flywheel-rotat- ing group, allowing the flywheel to rotate without any physical contact. This has a number of advan- tages over mechanical bearing systems: •...
5.1.8 Flywheel Module The Flywheel Module houses several major components: • The Rotating Group (high-speed carbon composite flywheel, high-speed shaft and rotor of the Motor-Generator) • The Motor-Generator (synchronous reluctance technology) • The Molecular Vacuum Pump • Flywheel Sensors • Active Magnetic Levitation Hardware •...
5.1.9 Rotor/Flywheel—Rotating Group The flywheel is made of carbon/glass composite. This is mounted on a metal shaft with integral motor-rotor and together these components form the rotating group. The rotating group is magneti- cally levitated and centered so that it does not touch any other part while in normal operation. Figure 39 Rotating group 5.1.10 Motor Generator The rotor is positioned within the stator in such a way that the rotor and stator provide the...
5.1.11 Vacuum System During manufacture, the vacuum chambers are evacuated and baked to remove water vapor. The vac- uum system is then permanently sealed off to prevent any air entering the system and to remove the possibility of accidental loss of vacuum. The Liebert FS does not require an external vacuum pump to maintain a suitable vacuum level;...
5.1.12 Flywheel Sensors Speed The speed detection system uses an infrared emitter and a sensor to detect the rotation of the shaft. A hole drilled through the shaft allows light to pass and is detected on the opposite side by an infrared detector.
5.1.13 System Safety Every composite flywheel is inspected, spin balanced and tested to 110% over-speed in accordance with NEMA guidelines. A patented dual-wall safety system ensures that in the unlikely event a fly- wheel were to separate during operation, the inner housing would retain the carbon fiber. As the car- bon fiber separates, it will expand and transfer its torque to the inner housing.
5.1.15 Ventilation and Cooling The Liebert FS stator and power electronics are liquid cooled with a liquid-to-air radiator. The radia- tor within the Liebert FS package is designed for natural and forced air-cooling. Air inlets are pro- vided from the bottom front of the Liebert FS enclosure. Air exhaust is from the top of the unit. Air filters are provided as an option.
Figure 44 Voltage and Inductance curve DC Bus Current Overload : Constant Current The V-I (Voltage and Inductance) curve (see Figure 44) shows the performance characteristics and modes of operation of the Liebert FS system based on the seven user-configurable system parameters. Regulation Voltage Delta During Discharge (Vreg Delta 1) Vreg Delta is the programmed amount of voltage drop from the beginning of discharge (SOC = 100%) to the Vreg Delta TSOC.

RJ-45 jack is built directly into the bottom of the faceplate of the DCM and located adjacent to the power supply connection. The DCM may also be connected via modem through COM2 serial port. By connecting to your existing network with an Ethernet cable, you will be able to access the DCM via your Internet browser.
To view the Network settings return to the View menu and press number 6 “Network”. The Network view screen displays the network addresses coming from the DCM. Static address settings can be entered using the keypad into this screen. The Network screen will show the assigned IP Address, Default Gateway, Subnet Mask and DNS Server.
Appendix B.2.3 Accessing the DCM From a personal computer connected to the same network as the DCM, enter the IP Address of the DCM, assigned by the LAN network server or manually configured, into the address line of the Inter- net browser to gain access to the DCM as seen in Figure 111.
