Galaxy Power System Verification Procedures

1 Introduction

Overview This manual provides general verification procedures for inspection and

testing of Lineage Power Galaxy Power System (GPS) products. The test procedures mentioned in this manual correspond to controller software version 6.5.

The Lucent GPS family of products is designed to operate maintenance-free, without the need for any regular adjustments or fine tuning. The output voltage and current limit are set by the controller, and the information is sent as a broadcast message to all rectifiers. All the rectifier outputs will be automatically adjusted to this level; no individual rectifier level voltage adjustment is required.

If, however, the customer requires any kind of routine verification or inspection (even though Lineage Power does not recommend it), the techniques described in this manual may be used as guidelines to test all the alarms.

The tests described here will simulate various alarm conditions and verify that the controller functions properly.

The fans used in the 595-Series and 596-Series rectifiers have a typical lifetime of 7 years. The fans in the 597A and 597B 24V/48V converter carriers have a typical lifetime of 4 to 5 years. Lucent recommends that these fans be replaced at these intervals as described in Section 4, Replacement Procedures in this manual.

Note: Fan assemblies should be kept dust-free at all times. Air flow through the rectifiers is important for the proper operation of the rectifiers.

Performance Verification Procedures

Introduction The procedures in this section may be used to test the different alarms in

a live Galaxy SC Controller system. The procedures are the same for both rear access and front access Galaxy SC controllers.

Tools The following tools are required to complete the tests described in this

section:

• Digital Voltmeter (DVM) with dc accuracy of at least 0.05%

• Short length of wire or clip lead for jumper

• Jeweler’s screwdriver

Precautions Before performing the test procedures, verify that the following

conditions exist:

• All rectifiers are functioning properly.

• Plant batteries are fully charged and are ready to support a load. (See Caution below.)

Caution: When Alarm Tests are performed on a live plant, some of the tests will cause a battery discharge to occur. In this case, ensure that the plant batteries are capable of supporting the load. It is recommended that a battery discharge test be performed before proceeding with other tests.

Follow the steps of the procedures in the order they are given.

Galaxy Power System Verification Procedures

Lamp Test Depress the <LAMP TEST> key on the controller’s front display

interface. All LEDs on the controller front panel, controller boards, and Lucent serial rectifiers will turn on momentarily and then retire.

Alarm Test

Introduction Alarm Test provides a method of testing the operation of all or any of

the plant alarm relays and their wiring to the connected alarm system. This test cannot be done if any alarms are active. It may also be desirable to perform this test occasionally after the plant is in service to verify the integrity of the office alarms for the power plant.

Alarm Test may be performed locally or from a remote terminal.

The Alarm Test feature will, in succession, operate each of the controller alarm relays. With the basic controller, the default duration is one minute. With the intelligent option for the controller, the selection of the relays to be operated and default duration can be changed using the EasyView interface.

Local Alarm Test Refer to Figures 2-1 and 2-2 for the SC Controller, and to Figures 2-3

and 2-4 for the SCF Controller.

SW202-5 on the BJB Basic Control Board must be enabled along with its associated software switch found on the front panel under the path: MAIN → CONFIG → ALARM → TEST ALM.

If HVSD is desired during the test, BJB SW202-4 must also be enabled, along with the appropriate software switch found on the front panel under the path: MAIN → CONFIG → ALARM → TEST HV. Each rectifier in the plant must have a load of at least 10% of its capacity.

When configured with the optional intelligent controller, the alarm conditions tested during Alarm Test and their duration may be specified within EasyView with the path: MAIN → CONFIGURE → ALARM TEST. As an alternative to the front panel configuration of the Alarm Test software switch, it may be also configured within EasyView under the path: CONFIGURE → DC PLANT → HARDWARE & SOFTWARE CONFIGURED.

Note: Front panel LEDs do not activate during the alarm test. The alarm relays whose contacts are accessed on TB2 and TB3 (BJT board on rear of SC controller/BLG on top section of the SCF controller) may be monitored to follow the progress of alarm testing.

Local Alarm Test, continued

The Alarm Test will operate, in sequence, each of the relays shown below for a default interval of approximately 60 seconds. This interval for each relay's activation during this test may optionally be set in an intelligent controller via EasyView path: MAIN → CONFIGURE → ALARM TEST.

Initiate Alarm Test locally by momentarily pressing the Alarm Test switch recessed into the front of the BJB basic controller or press the <MENU> key to bring up the MAIN screen and follow the path: MAINT OPER → ALARM TEST. The ALM TEST STAT field of this same screen can then be used to follow the progress of the Alarm Test.

The progress of the activated relays can be followed during the test by going straight down the TB2 and TB3 terminal blocks if the connected alarm system is not yet processing. (See Figure 2-2 for the SC, Figure 2-4 for the SCF.) The progress of relay activation may also be monitored in the ALM TST STAT field of the MEASURE/STATIS screen of an Intelligent controller or the MAIN screen in the basic controller.

High Float Voltage Alarm/High Voltage Shutdown Alarm Tes t s

Overview The High Float Voltage Alarm Test differs depending on whether

the system uses parallel or serial rectifiers. Both are described in this section.

The HV test can be done by either raising the plant voltage above the threshold set for HFV (High Float Voltage) and HVSD (High Voltage Shutdown) or by lowering the thresholds for these conditions to make them active.

Note: HFV is an alarm-only that can notify users of an impending HV condition before the need for a shutdown arises.

Preparations Note the value of plant voltage from the Default screen. Use the

following table to record settings before beginning the test procedures for both parallel and serial rectifiers:

Plant Nominal Float

High Float Voltage Alarm/High Voltage Shutdown Alarm Tests, continued

HV/HVSD Test Procedure for Parallel Rectifiers

Do not raise the plant bus voltage if an active load is being served. To test HVSD under this situation, ensure that sufficient battery reserve is connected to the plant bus to support the plant load. The battery may start sharing some load and BD alarms may turn on during this test.

Step Action

1

Disable Load Share on the rectifiers (if equipped) and adjust the rectifier voltages until each is delivering at least 10% of its capacity. Turn Off unneeded rectifiers if necessary to accomplish this.

2

From the Front Display interface, use the path: MAIN → CONFIG → THRESH and lower the HFV/Float level to 1 volt below the current float voltage. Verify that the Power Minor relay has activated and the RECT and Minor LEDs are active.

3

Next, use the path: MAIN → CONFIG → THRESH and lower the HV/Float level to 1 volt below the current float voltage. This should activate HVSD, turning Off all plant rectifiers and placing the plant into a BD (Battery on Discharge) condition. The BD, RECT, and Major LEDs should all activate, along with the Power Major, BD, and RFA alarm relays. After 5 seconds, all rectifiers will restart and, following walk-in, will begin raising the plant back to float. When the voltage passes the new HV threshold again, HVSD will occur again and all rectifiers will remain locked Off.

4

Use the path: MAIN → CONFIG → THRESH one final time to reset the HFV and HV Float levels to their desired normal settings (refer to table where initial settings have been recorded) and then the path: MAIN → RECT RST to restart all plant rectifiers, retiring the BD and RECT alarms.

5

Repeat the test for any rectifiers that were turned Off to achieve the 10% minimum load capacity level of each rectifier. After all rectifiers have been tested, adjust each to plant float, if necessary, and reenable Load Share on the rectifiers, if equipped.

High Float Voltage Alarm/High Voltage Shutdown Alarm Tests, continued)

HFV Test Procedure for Serial Rectifiers

Raising the plant voltage on a working system is left to the discretion of the user. This test could disrupt power to working equipment. If the test is performed, verify that the plant is in FLOAT mode and that rectifier voltage has been set to the normal level after completing the test.

Tests must be done with batteries connected, or else when the rectifiers shut down, the controller will also shut down.

Step Action

1

From the front panel, follow the path <MENU> → CONFIG

→ THRESH → HFV (FLOAT). Use the <Adjust> keys to

change the value of the HFV threshold to a level below the plant voltage noted above. Press <ENTER> to save the change.

2

Observe that the controller initiates a Power Minor alarm (PMN) and illuminates the RECT and MIN LEDs.

3

Follow the path <MENU> → CONFIG → THRESH → HFV (FLOAT) and restore the threshold to it's original setting. Press <ENTER> to save the change.

Issue 3 January 2008 Galaxy SC Controller Performance Verification Procedures 2 - 11

Galaxy Power System Verification Procedures

High Float Voltage Alarm/High Voltage Shutdown Alarm Tests, continued))

HVSD Test Procedure for Serial Rectifiers

There are three requirements for a serial rectifier to shut down upon a controller-initiated High Voltage Alarm:

• The plant voltage must be above the level set for HV at the front panel path: <MENU> → CONFIG → THRESH.

• The rectifier must be delivering a current exceeding 10% of it's capacity.

• The rectifier's current output must be unbalanced by more than 10% from the average output currents of the other rectifiers. Because this is difficult to achieve in a simulation test of properly functioning serial rectifiers, even with load share disabled, rectifiers are tested one at a time rather than as a group. Slightly different test procedures are used for special applications in batteryless plants.

Serial rectifiers have their own internal restart circuits that will function 3 times before the rectifier locks itself out and initiates a High Output Rectifier Fail Alarm to the controller. If there is a sufficient interval between restart and a subsequent shutdown the rectifier resets its restart counter.

The controller initiates a restart signal a few seconds after the first RFA (HO) alarm is received. After the second RFA (HO) is received, the controller waits 5 minutes before sending one additional restart signal.

Do not raise the plant bus voltage if an active load is being served. To test HVSD under this situation, ensure that sufficient battery reserve is connected to the plant bus to support the plant load. The battery may start sharing some load and BD alarms may turn on during this test.

HVSD Test Procedure for Serial Rectifiers, continued

Step Action

1

Turn Off all rectifiers except the rectifier under test by operating their power switches to STANDBY. Ensure that the system is loaded to at least 10-90% of the rectifiers’ output capacity.

2

From the front panel follow the path <MENU> → CONFIG

→ THRESH and note the value of the HV (FLOAT)

threshold.

3

Press the <ESC> key to return to the Configuration screen.

4

Follow the path RECT MNGR → [RECT OPER] → PLANT V (FLOAT) from the Configuration screen.

Note: Menu item in [] used in intelligent controllers only.

5

Use the <ADJUST> keys to change the value of the plant voltage to a level above the HV (FLOAT) setting noted above.

6

Press <ENTER> to save the change.

Step Action

Observe the following:

7

• When the voltage increases to the HV (FLOAT) level the rectifier shuts down.

• The Green ON LED on the rectifier blinks, the ALM LED on the rectifier is not lit.

• After 5-6 seconds the rectifier initiates its own restart signal again, raising the plant voltage.

• The rectifier will shutdown and restart three additional times.

• Upon the fourth shutdown, the rectifier's ALM LED lights and the rectifier's display indicates “HO.”

• The controller receives the RFA signal from the rectifier and initiates a restart signal 5-6 seconds later.

• The rectifier restarts again, raising plant voltage.

• The rectifier shuts down and restarts four additional times.

• During these shutdowns the Green ON LED on the rectifier blinks, the ALM LED on the rectifier is not lit.

• Upon the fourth shutdown, the rectifier's ALM LED lights and the rectifier’s display indicates “HO.”

• An external RFA office alarm is generated.

The controller will wait 5-6 minutes and issue one final restart signal, initiating the final sequence of shutdown and restart events before the rectifier locks out, requiring personnel intervention.

Prior to this occurring do the following:

a. From the front panel follow the path <MENU> →

CONFIG → RECT MNGR → [RECT OPER] → PLANT V (FLOAT).

Note: Menu item in [] used in intelligent controllers only.

b. Use the <ADJUST> keys to change the value of the plant

voltage to its normal level. Press <ENTER> to save the change.

c. Press <MENU> and select MAINT OPER → RECT

RESTART. Press <ENTER> to restart the rectifier.

Note: Restarting the rectifier from the front panel in this manner, rather than toggling the rectifier's ON/ STANDBY switch, resets the HVSD timer so that another rectifier can be tested immediately. Testing of the additional rectifiers in the same manner is at the user’s discretion

Battery on Discharge Alarm Test

Introduction If the BD alarm was observed during the High Voltage Shutdown test

this test can be disregarded.

If the BD alarm was not observed during the HVSD test, perform the following test procedure:

Procedure

Step Action

1

From the front panel follow the path <MENU> → CONFIG

→ THRLD and observe the setting of the BD (FLOAT)

threshold.

2

Switch some of the rectifiers to STANDBY or OFF, until the remaining rectifiers go into a current limit and plant voltage drops below BD (FLOAT) threshold. Observe the active BD and MAJ LEDs and asserted PMJ and BD relays.

3

Restart the rectifiers to retire alarms and return the plant voltage to float.

Another way to perform the test is to increase the BD threshold above the normal plant float voltage, using the following steps:

Step Action

1

From the front panel follow the path <MENU> → CONFIG

→ THRLD and observe the setting of the BD (FLOAT)

threshold.

2

Increase the BD threshold value above the float voltage. Observe the active BD and MAJ LEDs and asserted PMJ and BD relays.

3

Reset the BD alarm to the original setting.

Rectifier Fail Alarm Test

Introduction If the RFA alarm was observed during the High Voltage Shutdown Test

no separate test is required.

If the High Voltage Shutdown Test is not performed, generate an RFA (Rectifier Fail Alarm) in each of the plant rectifiers individually, using the procedures below:

Lucent Serial Rectifiers 595 and 596 Series

J855- or J874-Series Rectifiers

For Lucent 595 and 596 Series rectifiers, follow the steps in the table below:

Step Action

1

2

Turn the rectifier Off. Wait for the rectifier to power down.

Insert a plastic stick between the front panel grills to block the fan rotation.

3

Turn the rectifier On. After several seconds, the rectifier will issue an RFA alarm and the plant will generate a PMN.

4

Remove the fan obstruction and toggle the power switch Off and back On to restart the rectifier and retire the alarm.

5

Generate an RFA (Rectifier Fail Alarm) in each of the plant rectifiers individually and verify that the RECT and MINOR LEDs become active along with the Power Minor and RFA alarm relays.

For Lineage Power J855-series or J874-series rectifiers an RFA is easily accomplished by operating the “+V” or “-V” fuse alarm circuit by inserting a paper clip into the alarm indicating hole of the fuse holder.

4

Verify the RFA in the controller.

5

Lower the rectifier voltage once again to plant float and restart it to retire the RFA.

6

Close the PMA Output CB switch of all three PMAs and verify normal rectifier operation

Note: Load share should be disabled (BGB SW100-5) anytime rectifier voltage is adjusted in these rectifiers with the PMA Output CBs closed.

Terminate Rectifier (TR) Test

Introduction The TR test may be performed even if rectifier sequencing is not

planned to be utilized, as it provides a convenient means of testing that the controller recognizes all plant rectifiers and is able to control each over their assigned ports.

Refer to Figures 2-1 and 2-2 for the BJT board of the rear access SC controller and to Figures 2-3 and 2-4 for the BLG board of the front access SCF controller.

Test Procedure One at a time, connect a test lead on the TB3 terminal block of the BJT

(SC) or BLG (SCF) termination board, from position 13 (ETRR/ Ground) to position 8 (TR1), 9 (TR2), 10 (TR3), and 11 (TR4). The rectifiers will shut down in groups as depicted below and remain Off until the connection is removed at which time they automatically restart.

TR1: G01, G02, G09, G10, G17, G18

TR2: G03, G04, G11, G12, G19, G20

TR3: G05, G06, G13, G14, G21, G22

TR4: G07, G08, G15, G16, G23, G24

Caution: When this test is performed on a live plant, it may cause a battery discharge (BD) to occur. Ensure that the battery reserve is able to support the plant load.

Fuse Alarm Test

Major Fuse Alarm Major Fuse Alarm may be tested by placing a blown fuse in the alarm

fuse position of any distribution fuse position in the plant or by inserting a paper clip into the alarm indicating hole of its fuse holder. For distribution circuit breakers, temporarily connect the pins 8 and 9 of any KS22010 or KS22012 style circuit breakers of any breaker together.

For GPS cabinets, fuse alarms may be simulated at the BNL1 or BNL7 alarm card by strapping FAJ on these cards to the hot bus (P4-1 for BNL1, P5-6 for BNL7).

The DIST and MAJ LEDs and Power Major and MJF alarm relays will be active. Alarms should be tested in each distribution bay of the plant to verify the integrity of the alarm bus throughout the plant. If the distribution bays are equipped with “Bay Fuse Alarm” indicating LEDs, also verify that this LED activates during these tests for the bay in which the alarm originates (and not in any other).

For GPS cabinets, the alarm lamp of the cabinet containing the controller will always activate, in addition to the cabinet containing the alarm.

Minor Fuse Alarm Refer to Figures 2-1 and 2-3, respectively, for location of the BJF fuse

termination board in the SC and SCF controllers.

Minor Fuse Alarm may be tested by placing a blown fuse in the alarm fuse position of the plant Capacitor Charge circuit (if equipped) or by inserting a paper clip into the alarm indicating hole of its fuse holder. Alternately, replace one of the unused regulation fuses of the BJF fuse termination board with a blown GMT type fuse. In either case, the MIN and either DIST or RECT panel LEDs will activate, along with the Power Minor and MNF alarm relays.

Modem/Data Switch

Remote Peripheral Monitoring

If the Modem (L-AE) and/or Data Switch (L-AH) options have been provided, they can be tested after wiring and configuration is completed by dialing into the modem port and, if equipped, passing through to the devices wired to the equipped Data Switch ports. Refer to the controller product manual for the T1.317 Data Switch commands required.

Note: If the controller is regularly accessed using a modem, from a remote monitoring station, this test may not be necessary.

If the Remote Peripheral Monitoring option (L-AG) and J85501G1 monitoring units have been equipped, each channel configured may be tested for accuracy with a clamp-on ammeter (for Shunt Monitor channels), voltmeter (for Voltage Monitor channels), or thermometer (for Temperature channels). If alarms have been configured through the use of User Defined Event (UDE), they may also be tested by adjusting their program line to move the thresholds or by adjusting the channel programming to change the value reported for the channel. Refer to the Remote Peripheral Monitoring System product manual for complete feature descriptions of each of these optional monitoring devices.

Rectifier Sequencing

Once set, it is not recommended to change these UDE program lines, unless it is attempted by a qualified and skilled professional. Refer to the product manual if it is required to make any adjustments/changes to the RPM modules or UDE.

If Rectifier Sequencing in an intelligent controller has been enabled (via EasyView path: MAIN → CONFIGURE → RECTIFIERS), testing can be completed by temporarily using a shorting clip across TB3 positions 12-13 (ETR/ETRR) on BJT board of the rear access SC controller (Figure 2-2) and the BLG board of the front access SC controller (Figure 2-4). This will cause all rectifiers configured for Rectifier Sequencing control to shut Off. Releasing this clip will then cause the rectifiers to restart sequentially in the manner in which they have been programmed.

Energy Management

Overview The Energy Management algorithm exercises all rectifiers on a monthly

basis, guaranteeing that every connected rectifier is operated for at least 24 hours each month. All connected rectifiers that have not operated a total of 24 hours in the previous monthly cycle will be turned on by the controller on the first Wednesday of the next month at 10:00 a.m. for 24 hours.

Energy Management is available only in the intelligent controller and must be enabled in both hardware and software. Enable the hardware switch by setting SW204-1 on the BJH board to 1. From the front panel follow the path: <MENU> → CONFIG → RECT CTR → EFFIC to enable the software switch. Energy Management can be enabled in EasyView by following the path: CONFIGURE → PLANT → HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE.

Energy Management is enabled only if all connected rectifiers provide a load signal to the controller via the VI (Voltage proportional to Load) circuit within each Lucent J855-series or J874-series rectifier control circuitry. Controllers using the BJC2 rectifier interface packs, used with rectifiers that do not issue VI signals, instead monitor the mV signal directly off the rectifier load shunt. In either case, the Energy Management algorithm requires that the individual rectifier loads be reported to the controller accurately. Verify that the load reported via front panel or EasyView path against each rectifier agrees with the actual load calculated from its shunt mV reading or read from its front panel. If necessary, adjust the VI circuit of each rectifier as outlined in the appropriate rectifier product manual. Accuracy of 2% should be achieved.

Note: It may not be necessary to perform the following Energy Management test procedure if the rectifiers used are Lineage Power serial rectifiers. Also, if a TR (terminate rectifier) status is observed on the LED display, it indicates that the Energy Management feature is functioning.

Procedure

Step Action

1

Reset the BJH intelligent controller (see Figure 2-3) and stabilize the load at some level at which at least one rectifier becomes unnecessary. After 10 minutes the first unneeded rectifier will be turned Off by the controller. If additional rectifiers can be shut down, they will follow individually at 10 minute intervals.

2

If the plant load can be varied, increase it to the point where another rectifier is necessary after the controller has completed its shutdowns. One (or more as required) of the rectifiers will be restarted immediately when the load exceeds the capacity of the current on-line rectifiers

Battery Discharge Test

Overview The Battery Discharge Test feature dynamically tests the health of the

system’s batteries by controlling rectifier voltage to allow the batteries to discharge into the plant load. A Bell Labs patented algorithm collects battery information during the discharge and predicts the battery reserve time. To initiate the test, the plant must be operating in the Float mode with no active alarms and only serial type rectifiers connected. The test is completed when approximately 20 percent of anticipated battery capacity is removed. During the test, slope thermal compensation and boost modes will be temporarily disabled. The controller Reserve Time field will display “Test in Progress” and the BAT LED and the BD external alarm relay will be activated. BD and Very Low Voltage alarm thresholds will be temporarily inhibited.

It is a good practice to do a discharge test on the batteries, at least once a year, or more frequently, if required.

Note: The Battery Discharge Test is for informational and planning purposes only. It does not constitute the basis for warranty resolutions.

The battery test is aborted if any of the following conditions occur:

• 100 minutes elapses and 20 percent capacity has not been removed

• Battery voltage declines to the highest of the following computed values:

– (1.75 x No. of cells) + 1.2 [48V] or + .6 [24V]

– Highest LVD disconnect threshold + 1.2 [48V] or + .6 [24V]

– Converter disconnect threshold + 1.2 [48V] or + .6 [24V]

– (Configured end cell voltage x No. of cells) + 1.2 [48V] or + .6

[24V]

• A voltage sense fuse operates

• A rectifier fail alarm occurs

• Any serial communication failure occurs

• Any power major alarm occurs

Alarm Test

Overview Alarm Test provides a method of testing the operation of all or any of

the plant alarm relays and their wiring to the connected alarm system. This test cannot be done if any alarms are active. It may also be desirable to perform this test occasionally after the plant is in service to verify the integrity of the office alarms for the power plant. Alarm Test may be performed locally or from a remote terminal.

The Alarm Test feature will, in succession, operate each of the controller alarm relays. With the basic controller, the default duration is one minute. With the intelligent option for the controller, the selection of the relays to be operated and default duration can be changed using the EasyView interface.

High Float Voltage Alarm Test

Introduction The High Voltage Alarm Test can be done by either raising the plant

voltage above the threshold set for HFV (High Float Voltage) or by

lowering the threshold for this condition to make it active.

Note: HFV is an alarm-only that can be used to notify users of an

impending HV condition before the need for a shutdown arises.

Raising the plant voltage on a working system is left to the discretion of

the user. This test could disrupt power to working equipment. If the test

is performed, verify that the plant is in FLOAT mode and that rectifier

voltage has been set to the normal level after completing the test.

Tests need to be done with batteries connected, or else when the

rectifiers shut down, the controller will also shut down.

Preparations Note the value of plant voltage from the Default screen. Use the

following table to record settings before beginning the test procedures:

Plant Nominal Float

Galaxy Power System Verification Procedures

High Voltage Shutdown Test, continued

Serial Rectifiers There are three requirements for a serial rectifier to shut down upon a

controller-initiated High Voltage Alarm:

• The plant voltage must be above the level set for HV at the front panel path: <MENU> → CONFIG → THRESH.

• The rectifier must be delivering a current exceeding 10% of it's capacity.

• The rectifier's current output must be unbalanced by more than 10% from the average output currents of the other rectifiers. Because this is difficult to achieve in a simulation test of properly functioning serial rectifiers, even with load share disabled, rectifiers are tested one at a time rather than as a group. Slightly different test procedures are used for special applications in batteryless plants.

Note: In an active plant with serial rectifiers the plant High Voltage (HVSD) test can be performed with only one rectifier in operation, in order to satisfy all three conditions mentioned above.

Serial rectifiers have their own internal restart circuits that will function 3 times before the rectifier locks itself out and initiates a High Output Rectifier Fail Alarm to the controller. If there is a sufficient interval between restart and a subsequent shutdown the rectifier resets its restart counter.

The controller initiates a restart signal a few seconds after the first RFA (HO) alarm is received. After the second RFA (HO) is received, the controller waits 5 minutes before sending one additional restart signal.

Battery on Discharge Alarm Test

Rectifier Fail Alarm

If the BD alarm was observed during the High Voltage Shutdown test this test can be disregarded.

If the BD alarm was not observed during the High Voltage Shutdown test, do the following:

Step Action

1

From the front panel follow the path <MENU> → CONFIG

→ THRLD and observe the setting of the BD (FLOAT)

threshold.

2

Switch some of the rectifiers to STANDBY or OFF, until the remaining rectifiers go into a current limit and plant voltage drops below BD (FLOAT) threshold. Observe the active BD and MAJ LEDs and asserted PMJ and BD relays.

3

Restart the rectifiers to retire alarms and return the plant voltage to float.

If the RFA alarm was observed during the High Voltage Shutdown Test no separate test is required.

Tes t

If the High Voltage Shutdown Test is not performed, generate an RFA (Rectifier Fail Alarm) in each of the plant rectifiers individually, using the following procedure:

Step Action

1

Turn the rectifier Off. Wait for the rectifier to power down.

2

Insert a plastic stick between the front panel grills to block the fan rotation.

3

Turn the rectifier On. Wait for a few seconds; the rectifier must issue an RFA alarm and the plant must generate a PMN.

4

Remove the fan obstruction and toggle the power switch Off and back On to restart the rectifier and retire the alarm.

5

Generate an RFA (Rectifier Fail Alarm) in each of the plant rectifiers individually and verify that the RECT and MINOR LEDs become active along with the Power Minor and RFA alarm relays.

Terminate Rectifier (TR) Test

Introduction The TR test may be performed even if rectifier sequencing is not

planned to be utilized, as it provides a convenient means of testing that the controller recognizes all plant rectifiers and is able to control each over their assigned ports.

Refer to Figure 3-1 for location of the BSL board.

Procedure One at a time, connect a test lead on the BSL alarm interface terminal

block from position 76 (ETRR/Ground) to position 73 (TR1), 79 (TR2), 85 (TR3), and 80 (TR4). The rectifiers will shut down in groups as depicted below and remain Off until the connection is removed at which time they automatically restart.

TR1: G01, G02, G09, G10, G17, G18 TR2: G03, G04, G11, G12, G19, G20 TR3: G05, G06, G13, G14, G21, G22 TR4: G07, G08, G15, G16, G23, G24

Note: This function can be performed by using EasyView.

Caution: When this test is performed on a live plant, it may cause a battery discharge (BD) to occur. Ensure that the battery reserve is able to support the plant load.

Fuse Alarm Test

Introduction If there are any site installed fuses, they can be tested for alarm

functionality by generating alarms for the controller at these points. If this is not possible, they can be tested by simulating alarm conditions at the BSL board (see Figure 3-1) on the Millennium Controller by following the steps given below.

Major Fuse Alarm (FAJ)

Minor Fuse Alarm (FAN)

Connect a jumper (through a 1K resistor) between Pin 63 (FAJ) and Pin 93 (ABS) on BSL Board (see Tables 3B, 3C and 3D in the Millennium controller manual for details of these pin assignments). DIST and MAJ LEDs will light up. MJF default relay will be activated.

For GPS cabinets, fuse alarms may be simulated at the BNL1 or BL7 alarm card by strapping FAJ on these cards to the hot bus (P4-1 for BNL1, P5-6 for BNL7).

Connect a jumper (through a 1K resistor) between Pin 65 (FAN) and Pin 93 (ABS) on BSL Board (see Tables 3B, 3C, and 3D in the Millennium controller manual for details of these pin assignments). DIST and MIN LEDs will light up. MNF default relay will be activated.

Modem/Data Switch

Remote Peripheral Monitoring

If the Modem (L-AE) and/or Data Switch (L-AH) options have been provided, they can be tested after wiring and configuration is completed by dialing into the modem port and, if equipped, passing through to the devices wired to the equipped Data Switch ports. Refer to the controller product manual for T1.317 Data Switch commands.

Note: If the controller is regularly accessed using a modem, from a remote monitoring station, this test may not be necessary.

If J85501G-1 Remote Peripheral Monitoring units have been equipped, each channel configured may be tested for accuracy with a clamp-on ammeter (for Shunt Monitor channels), voltmeter (for Voltage Monitor channels), or thermometer (for Temperature channels). If alarms have been configured through the use of User Defined channels, they may also be tested by adjusting their program line to move the thresholds or by adjusting the channel programming to change the value reported for the channel.

Once set, it is not recommended to change these UDE program lines, unless it is attempted by a qualified and skilled professional. Refer to the product manual if it is required to make any adjustments/changes to the RPM modules or UDE.

Rectifier Sequencing

If Rectifier Sequencing in an intelligent controller has been enabled (via EasyView path: MAIN → CONFIGURE → RECTIFIERS), testing can be completed by temporarily using a shorting clip across BSL2 Alarm Interface positions 75-76 (ETR/ETRR) This will cause all rectifiers configured for Rectifier Sequencing control to shut Off. Releasing this clip will then cause the rectifiers to restart sequentially in the manner in which they have been programmed.

Energy Management

Overview The Energy Management algorithm matches the number and ampacities

of all available battery plant rectifiers to the actual plant load requirements, favoring the shutdown of rectifiers when plant load requirements are low enough to warrant selected rectifier shutdown, thus maintaining the battery plant at maximum efficiency without sacrificing reliability or creating nuisance alarms. The Galaxy controller continuously monitors the number of connected rectifiers, their individual ampacities, the actual output current being delivered by each and the actual office load-current demand.

The Energy Management algorithm exercises all rectifiers on a monthly basis, guaranteeing that every connected rectifier is operated for at least 24 hours each month. All connected rectifiers that have not operated a total of 24 hours in the previous monthly cycle will be turned On by the controller on the first Wednesday of the next month at 10:00 a.m. for 24 hours.

Procedure

Energy Management is available only in the intelligent controller and must be enabled in both hardware and software. Enable the hardware switch by setting SW204-1 on the BSJ board to 1. From the front panel follow the path: <MENU> → CONFIG → RECT CTR → EFFIC to enable the software switch. Energy Management can be enabled in EasyView by following the path: CONFIGURE → PLANT → HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE.

Step Action

1

Reset the BSJ intelligent controller (Figure 3-1) and stabilize the load at some level at which at least one rectifier becomes unnecessary. After 10 minutes, the first unneeded rectifier will be placed in standby by the controller. If additional rectifiers can be shut down, they will follow individually at 10 minute intervals.

2

If the plant load can be varied, increase it to the point where another rectifier is necessary after the controller has completed its shutdowns. One (or more as required) of the rectifiers will be restarted immediately when the load exceeds the capacity of the current on-line rectifiers.

Note: If energy management is always enabled, it may not be required to do this test, especially if some of the rectifiers are in “TR” mode.

Battery Discharge Test

Overview The Battery Discharge Test feature dynamically tests the health of the

system’s batteries by controlling rectifier voltage to allow the batteries to discharge into the plant load. A Bell Labs patented algorithm collects battery information during the discharge and predicts the battery reserve time. To initiate the test, the plant must be operating in the Float mode with no active alarms and only serial type rectifiers connected. The test is completed when approximately 20 percent of anticipated battery capacity is removed. During the test, slope thermal compensation and boost modes will be temporarily disabled. The controller Reserve Time field will display “Test in Progress” and the BAT LED and the BD external alarm relay will be activated. BD and Very Low Voltage alarm thresholds will be temporarily inhibited.

It is a good practice to do a discharge test on the batteries, at least once a year, or more frequently, if required.

Note: The Battery Discharge Test is for informational and planning purposes only. It does not constitute the basis for warranty resolutions.

The battery test is aborted if any of the following conditions occur:

• 100 minutes elapses and 20 percent capacity has not been removed

• Battery voltage declines to the highest of the following computed values:

– (1.75 x No. of cells) + 1.2 [48V] or + .6 [24V]

– Highest LVD disconnect threshold + 1.2 [48V] or + .6 [24V]

– Converter disconnect threshold + 1.2 [48V] or + .6 [24V]

– (Configured end cell voltage x No. of cells) + 1.2 [48V] or + .6

[24V]

• A voltage sense fuse operates

• A rectifier fail alarm occurs

• Any serial communication failure occurs

• Any power major alarm occurs

Requirements

System With the exception of the batteries, periodic maintenance specific to the

power system is not required. The ac service for the building must be maintained with ANSI specified limits. The temperature and humidity within the power room must be maintained within the limits specified in the product manual.

Batteries The batteries must be maintained as directed by the battery

manufacturer’s requirements.

Rectifiers With the exception of a fan failure, rectifiers are repaired by

replacement. Refer to “Installing or Replacing a Rectifier” in this section.

Rectifier Fan Assembly

The expected life of the rectifier fans at 25°C (77°F) is approximately

eight years. The fans in the rectifiers may be replaced in the field.

Two approaches can be taken to fan maintenance:

• The first approach is to replace the fan on a routine basis every seven to eight years; this ensures that the fan does not fail in the field under normal operating conditions. This approach is appropriate when there are no remote alarm facilities at the site.

• The second approach, assuming one has remote alarm capability, is to wait until the fan fails. The rectifier will safely shut down and issue both a fail alarm and a thermal alarm. The fan can then be replaced. Since it is likely that all the rectifiers in that installation are of roughly the same age, all rectifier fans at that site should be replaced at that time.

The approach used depends on the location and manning of the site as well as the monitoring of alarms used at the site. Refer to “Replacing a Rectifier Fan Assembly” in this section.

Note: As a routine procedure, keep fan assemblies dust-free.

Two approaches can be taken to fan maintenance. The first approach is to replace the two fans on a routine basis every four to five years; this ensures that the fans do not fail in the field under normal operating conditions. This approach is appropriate when there are no remote alarm facilities at the site. The second approach, assuming one has remote alarm capability, is to wait until a fan fails. It can then be replaced. Since it is likely that all the converters in that installation are of roughly the same age, all converter fans at that site should be replaced at that time.
