3 Product Overview
3.1 Intended Use
Utilizing DC grids rather than AC grids enables power distribution with lower power losses. However, there are few or no international standards for building a DC grid, especially in marine applications. Short circuit handling is a challenge in DC grids and it is difficult to ensure the required system functionality by using fuses. Ensuring selectivity and limited short circuit energy requires more sophisticated protection devices.
Danfoss has therefore developed the VACON® NXP DCGuard™, a semiconductor protection device that can detect and cut off any DC fault currents and isolate the faulty part of the DC grid power distribution system in microseconds.
3.2 Application Functionality
VACON® NXP DCGuard™ is a fast DC current cutter device that detects and cuts off an outgoing short-circuit current. The main function is to isolate the faulty DC bus from the healthy DC bus, before that fault affects the healthy DC bus.
Two inverter units in a DCGuard peer-to-peer topology are required to be able to cut off short-circuit current both ways.
VACON® NXP DCGuard™ consist of VACON® NXP inverter units and application software ADFIF102. To ensure the correct functionality and safety level, always use the following components together with the DCGuard in a peer-to-peer system:
•An upstream mechanical disconnector if safe disconnection is required.
•Type aR supply fuses in each DC supply line (see the VACON® NXP DCGuard™ design guide for instructions).
•A dU/dt filter (a standard VACON® dU/dt filter can be used).

3.3 Protection Functions
The VACON® NXP DCGuard™ application has different short-circuit protection levels. The instant current cut-off is non-programmable, but the other functions can be programmed. The protection functions also have separate programmable responses.
Instant current cut-off
•Non-programmable
•Handled by VACON® NXP hardware at μs level.
•Fault: F1

3.4 Controlled Voltage Ramp-Up
Controlled voltage ramp-up is a programmable function of the VACON® NXP DCGuard™ application. The DCGuard performs a controlled ramp-up of the voltage in the bus tie cables before closing. This functionality powers up the DC link of the peer-to-peer connection during start-up of the system. The recommended controlled voltage ramp-up time is 200–400 ms.
