Introduction
Applications
The MPR15 / MPR25 rectifiers are designed to operate continuously in a battery-equipped or batteryless –48 V power system, either embedded as part of a small system, or as part of a power plant in a system application.
Several models are available for operation in a controlled environment. An extended temperature version is capable of withstanding temperatures ranging from -40°C to +65°C while standard models operate from 0° to +65°C ambient. The MPR15EX model operates in
an ambient temperature range of − 40°C to +50° C, and the standard MPR15E operates in a range of 0°C to +50°C.
The MPR25E and MPR25EX are suitable for various embedded and system applications. These models offer features that facilitate installation, operation and maintenance.
The MPR15EX is intended for low power applications, when only 110 / 120 V AC power is available.
The rectifier will operate with existing Astec rectifiers and other compatible manufacturers' products. It is compatible with Astec conventional and microprocessor-based controllers designed to interface with the basic standard signals.

Operation
Rectifier operation
The main AC line voltage is rectified and filtered to an unregulated high DC voltage. The input circuit provides EMI filtering, inrush current limiting, low and high AC inhibition, lightning and surge voltage protection, and input fault protection through an AC breaker.
The high frequency isolating power section consists of a full bridge converter using power MOSFETs and a high frequency power transformer.
The high frequency AC voltage generated at the secondary of the power transformer is rectified and filtered. The output section provides EMI filtering, a shunt for output DC current sense, and output protection in the form of a DC breaker. A current mode pulse width regulator varies the pulse width of the signal driving the power MOSFETs. This allows regulation to the output DC voltage.
The monitoring circuitry includes soft start, rectifier fail alarm (RFA), rectifier RFA/ON LED, local and remote equalize, temporary release, thermal shutdown, AC valid, local and remote high voltage shut down (HVSD), local and remote HVSD reset, logic valid, fan failure detection, and a fan failure LED.
A three-digit output current meter reads the output shunt and displays the value using an integrated logic circuit.
An auxiliary power supply provides the various voltages required by the internal circuitry and cooling fan.

Local float / equalize control
The rectifier is equipped with a momentary Float/Equalize switch. When the switch is held in the EQL position, the rectifier changes to equalize mode and boosts the output voltage to the value set by the EQL potentiometer. Otherwise, the rectifier delivers a float voltage set by the FLT potentiometer.

Operation 23
Rectifier failure alarm (RFA)
The rectifier incorporates facilities for monitoring its operational state and extends a global alarm upon detection of an internal failure or a no load condition (see Note below). When the rectifier operates in parallel with other rectifiers and its output voltage is adjusted lower, the RFA LED will change to RED and an RFA alarm will be sent.
Note: Give an alarm at no load condition only for the following releases or under.

NT5CO6CE-61(-46) |
Rel. 12 |
Fan failure alarm
A fan failure will activate the fan alarm and inhibit the operation of the rectifier. An RFA will also be issued upon inhibition of the rectifier.
Internal high voltage shut down (HVSD)
The rectifier includes a high voltage monitor. Whenever the rectifier output voltage exceeds a value adjustable from -52 to -59.5 V it shuts down immediately, locks out, and transmits an RFA. This function is not dependent on the output load condition.
Local ON/OFF control (DC and optional AC breakers)
Circuit breakers are used to turn the rectifier ON/OFF locally and disengage it from the DC circuit. The local OFF control overrides the remote control signals.
Inrush current limiting fuse (F1)
A 3/4 A, 250 V fuse is connected in line with the soft start circuitry to protect the input circuitry against high inrush currents in case of an internal failure. On the MPR15E modes NT5C06CB/CD/CE, failure of this fuse during operation will disable the unit. See the “Recommended Replacement Parts” section to order a replacement fuse.
25A Switch Mode Rectifier NT5C06B / C Installation and User Manual
24 Operation
Test points (V+, V-)
Test points allow the user to measure the voltage at the point of regulation, whether the DC breaker is ON or OFF. A 10 K resistor is placed in series with the –48 V lead to prevent short circuits at the jack terminals.
Current meter
A three-digit output current meter, available on the enhanced model, reads the output shunt and displays the value using an integrated logic circuit.
Fan filter option
A fan filter option is available for dusty environments to prevent the dust particles from entering and deteriorating the cooling efficiency of the rectifier. (See the “Recommended Replacement Parts” section to order an air filter kit.)
The maximum operating ambient temperature should be limited to 50°C (122°F) for environments requiring the rectifier air filter.

Operation 25
Signal connector
This connector provides control and monitoring signal access to the rectifier. Refer to the “Signal Connections” section for connection details.
Power interface edge connector
The rectifier AC, DC and chassis ground interface is made through the rear edge connector. Refer to the “Rectifier and Controller Interface Connections” section for connection and installation details.
Features
The rectifier provides the following operating, monitoring, measurement and control features:
Operating features
Remote voltage sensing
Provision is made to extend the sensing leads to the battery or to the charge/discharge bus (operation without batteries) of the plant. The opening of either sensing leads will not result in a voltage increase at the rectifier output terminals.
Current limiting
The rectifier will automatically limit the output current to 17.5 to 20 A (MPR15) and 25.5 to 30 A (MPR25). Extended periods of operation in the current limiting mode, and repeated transitions between constant-voltage operation and constant-current operation have no detrimental effect on the performance or service life of the rectifier.
The rectifier is capable of starting when connected across a completely discharged battery without requiring human intervention or operating protection devices.
Transitions from constant-voltage operation to constant-current operation and from constant-current to constant-voltage operation will occur automatically, as determined by the output current. The current limit circuit will continue working in both the float and equalize modes.
Soft start and walk-in
The output current rises from 10% to 90% in 2 seconds (typically).
25A Switch Mode Rectifier NT5C06B / C Installation and User Manual
26 Operation
AC inrush current
The AC current during the turn on sequence of the rectifier, under all input and output conditions specified in this document, will not exceed its full load steady-state value.
Sequential start
The rectifier Temporary Release (TR) leads are available for use with an external sequential start circuit.
Parallel operation
The rectifier is capable of operating in parallel with other rectifiers having similar output slope characteristics.
Discharge of output capacitors
The output capacitors will automatically discharge when the rectifier is disconnected and the AC power has been removed.
Load sharing
Rectifiers connected in parallel and sensing at the same point will share the load with other rectifiers having similar negative output slope characteristics (300 mV drop from zero to full load).
The rectifier will share the load proportionally to its output rating to a precision within +10%.
Monitoring features
Input AC voltage monitor
The rectifier monitors the input voltage and inhibits its operation when the voltage exceeds the specified limits. Refer to the “Summary of Specifications” section, sub section Electric. An RFA is initiated.
The rectifier recovers its normal operation automatically when the specified input voltage is re-established.
Thermal shutdown
The rectifier protects itself against thermal overstress by inhibiting its operation for the duration of the high temperature condition. The RFA alarm is triggered. The rectifier will restart after the temperature has returned to a safe level.
UM5C06B / C ( 169-2071-500 ) P0711722 Standard 10.00 May 2001
Operation 27
Output current monitor
The rectifier monitors the output current. The unit will initiate an RFA alarm when no output current (see Note below) is detected during parallel operation.
Note: Give an alarm at no load condition, only for the following releases or under.

Measurement features
Remote rectifier current measurement
The rectifier is equipped with a 50 mV / 25 A shunt connected on the positive lead, near the output terminals. The shunt signal is available on the signal connector (see Figure 3).
Test points (V+, V-)
Voltage jacks are provided for measuring the voltage at the point of regulation.
Control features
Remote ON/OFF control
When a ground signal is applied to the 'Temporary Release' (TR) input, the rectifier inhibits its operation and activates the rectifier's RFA. Upon removal of the remote ground signal the rectifier returns to normal operation.
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 if it is supplying more than 10% of its full load rating.
25A Switch Mode Rectifier NT5C06B / C Installation and User Manual
28 Operation
Local/remote high voltage shutdown reset
The rectifier may be reset from an HVSD condition locally, by resetting the AC circuit breaker (if so equipped), the associated AC breaker on the distribution panel, or remotely by applying a ground signal at the HVSDR input of the rectifier provided:
•the 'TR' lead is not activated
•the 'AC' (optional) and 'DC' breakers are closed
Remote equalize control
The rectifier is equipped with remote equalize control. This function is operated by applying a remote ground signal (BAT POS) and returns to normal (Float) operation upon removal of the signal.
Signal connections
The interface connector located at the rear of the rectifier provides control, alarm and monitoring signals. The control inputs are activated by a ground (BAT RTN) signal. The alarm contacts are extended by relays and are isolated from each other, and from the rectifier chassis. All contacts are rated 60 V DC and 0.5 A.
