Overview (Vista II Two-Tier)
The 1200A Two Tier Distribution Center is a modular, front access system that provides DC distribution, rectifier
and battery connections. Coupled with Argus Cordex system controller, rectifiers and converters, it provides a
complete solution in a compact integrated package.
The distribution center in the CXPS 48-2T is configured at the factory with:
• 48V, 20-position breaker tier with 600A low voltage disconnect (LVD)
• 48V, 18-position split-breaker tier with 600A LVD (can also be configured for split 48V/24V voltage
applications)
• 48V, 10-position, 30A GMT fuse assembly
• Load shunts for current measurement.
The modular distribution center allows customization of integrated power systems; perfect for space-restricted
installs. The system provides front access to controller interface and I/O connections, load breakers & fuses, and
battery connections.
