38 Operation

UM5C06D ( 169-2071-504 ) P0831010 Standard 7.00 May 2001

Input AC voltage monitor

The rectifier monitors the input voltage, inhibits its operation and sends an
RFA when the AC voltage decreases below 176 or rises above 264 V AC. An

AC FAIL alarm contact is transmitted through the signal connector.

The rectifier recovers its normal operation automatically when the input

voltage returns within the acceptable limits, without any operator
intervention.

Thermal shutdown

The rectifier protects itself against thermal over stress by inhibiting its
operation for the duration of the high temperature condition. The RFA

alarm is triggered.

Remote high voltage shutdown

In addition to the local high voltage shutdown feature, the power plant

controller can shut down any rectifier by sending a high voltage shutdown
signal, ground (BAT RTN) pulse. The rectifier will shut down within 50 ms if

it is supplying more than 3 A +/- 0.75 A.

Local / remote high voltage shutdown reset

The rectifier may be reset from an HVSD condition either by toggling the

rectifier’s AC circuit breaker, or by applying a ground signal at the HVSDR
input of the rectifier, provided that the 'TR' lead is not activated.
If the HVSD condition subsides the rectifier will restart automatically. If a
second HVSD event occurs within a 5-minute interval the rectifier will lock

out on the second event and have to be manually or remotely reset to restart.

Remote equalize control

The rectifier is equipped with remote equalize control. This control is

operated by applying a remote ground signal (BAT RTN) and returns to
normal (Float) operation upon removal of the signal.

Power interface edge connector

The rectifier AC, DC, and chassis ground interface is done through the
power interface edge connector. This connector is designed to establish the

frame ground connection first. Figure 10 shows the rectifier to shelf power
interface connections.
