1 - GENERALITIES

ENAG has been specializing in the production of power supplies for the marine
environment for more than 30 years.
ENAG manufactures a complete range of automatic battery chargers.

We can also propose some regulated and filtered power supplies and converters, some
monitoring systems which enable to compose the global supply of the GMDSS system.

This manual is intended for equipment users and installation and maintenance
engineers. The manual must be read thoroughly before any operations are undertaken
on the product and all the users must be informed.

Choice of Appliance

T

he choice of appliance will depend on applicable standards, battery type (technology
used, number of cells, capacity), amount of current consumed by the load centres and
installation and environment constraints.

3 - OPERATING DESCRIPTION

The functioning principle of the GMDSS box is based on Automatic detection System (RAE
system).
Taking into account the “GMDSS” supply logic, the aim is to supply the appropriate power with an
optimal autonomy thanks to radio-communications systems.

Functioning modes :

1 – Main source present

The main generator, directly connected (DC) or through a battery charger (AC), supplies

the loads and maintains the radio battery in good charge state. The whole system

functions in “UPS” mode.

A stand-by battery test (radio battery) is carried out periodically (every 6 hours). It

enables to :

 Check that the battery is present
 Check that the battery is in good charge state
 Lengthen its life duration by carrying out charge and discharge cycles.

The SW1 switch located on the control PCB enables to immediately launch a stand-by

battery test (inspection control).

2 – Main source defective

The main generator does not supply the loads anymore. Two options are possible :

OPTION A : priority to the stand-by source. Use of the control PCB in U4 in the PAL

ref GMDSS24A.

The loads are first supplied without cut-off by the stand-by source (within the limit of

specified voltage), then by the emergency source. That way the emergency source is

protected for an optimum autonomy.

OPTION B : priority to the emergency source. Use of the control PCB in U4 in the

PAL ref GMDSS24B.

The loads are first supplied without cut-off by the emergency source (within the limit of

specified voltage), then by the stand-by source. That way the stand-by source is protected

for an optimum autonomy.

In case an over voltage of the main generator is detected, the generator is immediately

disconnected and the loads are supplied by the stand-by or emergency source depending

on the option chosen.

3 - Ship alongside the quay, motor stopped

The operator puts the switch on the « OFF » position. The radio is only supplied by the

service battery as long as the battery main switch is not activated.

When the motor is started, the buzzer sound tells the user to put the switch on the “ON”

position. The box is in operation.

5 - INSTALLATION - CONNECTION - SETTINGS

TROUBLESHOOTING

5.1 INSTALLATION

As

the appliance is cooled by natural
convection, a minimum allowance
must be left for installation as shown.

Mounting centre distance and space
requirement: see enclosed drawing.

The situation of the charger must be
adapted to its protection rating.

5.2 CONNECTION

 The cable fixation is done on the connecting bar.

 A shielded cable connection attenuates electromagnetic disturbance and reduces

the susceptibility of the appliance. This type of cable is recommended in all
installations.

 The ground terminal or lug of the appliance must be connected by a short, wide

strap to the installation ground. See cables fixation plan.

 The ground strap of the shielded cables must be linked to the appliance ground

inside the case.

 Separate the supply, load and control cables.
