2 System Description
Overview
Block Diagram
A basic block diagram of the Galaxy Power System 2436 is shown in Figure 2-1. It
illustrates the arrangement and interconnection of the system components from the ac
input to the dc output.
Figure 2-1 Block Diagram of the GPS2436
System
The power system accepts alternating current from the commercial utility or a
standby ac power source and rectifies it to produce dc power for the using
equipment. The system’s control and alarm functions interact with the
rectifiers and the office. In addition, the system provides overcurrent
protection and charge, discharge, and distribution facilities. Battery reserve is
connected in parallel and automatically provides a source of dc power if the
commercial or standby ac fails. Battery reserve can be engineered to supply
dc power for a specific period of time. In normal practice, battery capacity is
sized to provide 3 to 8 hours of reserve time.
Issue 1 August 2012 7
Galaxy Power System GPS2436
Components
AC Input connects the commercial and/or standby ac power sources to the
rectifiers within the system and provides overcurrent protection. In some
applications the ac service is wired directly to the rectifiers and overcurrent
protection is provided at the service panel.
Rectifiers convert an ac source voltage into the dc voltage level required to
charge and float the batteries and to power the using equipment.
Controller provides the local and remote control, monitoring, and diagnostic
functions required to administer the power system.
Batteries provide energy storage for an uninterrupted power feed to the
using equipment during loss of ac input or rectifier failure.
DC Distribution Panel provides overcurrent protection, connection points for
the using equipment, and bus bars used to interconnect the rectifiers,
batteries, and dc distribution.
Battery Connection Panel provides connection points for the battery strings
through battery disconnect fuses or contactors and current monitoring
shunts.

3 Galaxy Millennium II Controller
Overview
Introduction
The GPS2436 comes equipped with the Galaxy Millennium II Controller. This
section describes the controller operation and general information about the
features of the front panel keys, LEDs, and display.
The Galaxy Millennium II Controller provides advanced local and remote
monitoring and data acquisition features. The controller monitors system
parameters; such as, system voltage and current, and components; such as
rectifiers, and distribution circuits. The controller reports the status and issues
appropriate alarms in the event a failure occurs.
User Interface
and Display
Each cabinet is equipped with a bay interface card (BIC). The BIC acts as an
interface to the cabinet control and alarm signals.
The Millennium II’s primary user interface is a backlit LCD front panel display
that can be viewed in English or Spanish, two rows of LEDs, an array of
pushbutton keys, and a pair of test jacks.
Figure 4-1 illustrates the front panel.
Default Display
The default display shows basic system status; system voltage, load current,
and plant state. The controller returns to this display approximately three
minutes after a key is pressed. The information on the screen is updated
automatically approximately every two seconds.
Issue 1 August 2012 13
Galaxy Power System GPS2436
The default screen displays the following: The first line shows the number of
alarms and warnings present in the system, the date, and the time. The next
two lines show the system voltage and the system load. The last line shows
the system mode, which can be one of the following:
• FLOAT
• BOOST
• STC (Slope Thermal Compensation)
• BATT TEST
LEDs
Two rows of LEDs show the source and severity of various alarms. An alarm
lights one status LED and one or more alarm LEDs. If more than one alarm LED
lights, only the status LED of the most severe alarm will light.
• The first row includes four LEDs, labeled Alarm Status. They indicate the
severity of the reported alarm:
Test Jacks
Critical
Major
Minor
Normal
The Battery on Discharge LED is also in this row.
• The second row has seven LEDs, labeled Equipment Status. They
indicate the source of the alarm:
AC System

4 Rectifiers
NE100AC24ATEZ
Overview
The NE100AC24ATEZ Series rectifier (100A) operates from single-phase ac
service with a phase-to-phase voltage within the range of 95-275Vac.
The rectifiers are shipped separately from the cabinets for quick and
straightforward installation into rectifier shelves at the site. Interconnections
to ac input, dc output, and control signals occur automatically during
insertion. No settings or adjustments to potentiometers are necessary.
The NE100AC24ATEZ rectifiers are UL Recognized for both the U. S. and
Canada, comply with UL1950 (Information Technology Equipment), and meet
EN60950 requirements.
Front Panel Display
Status Indicators
Three LEDs on the rectifier’s faceplate indicate the rectifier’s condition.
• The Norm LED is green and is lit when the rectifier has AC input present and is
working properly.
• The ACF LED is amber and is lit when there is no AC input present to the
rectifier.
• The Fail LED is red and is lit if there is a failure in the rectifier.
Lamp Test
To test the LEDs on the rectifier front panel, press the Lamp Test button on
the controller.
Issue 1 August 2012 17
Galaxy Power System GPS2436
Features
Output Current “Walk-in”
This circuit controls the time (up to eight seconds) required for the rectifier to
reach normal operating conditions after it is turned on. This feature minimizes
the starting surge on the customer's power source.
Output Protection
Rectifier is equipped with an internal fuse for plant protection if a fault occurs
in a rectifier.
Electronic Current Limit
When the output current tends to increase above the current limit set point,
the current limit circuit overrides the voltage regulating signal and safely limits
the output current of the rectifier, thus preventing damage to itself or the
load.
High Voltage Shutdown (HVSD)
The rectifier senses the voltage at its output terminals. If this voltage is too
high, the rectifier will shut down to prevent the high voltage from damaging
itself or the load.
Restart
Upon shutdown, the rectifier will attempt to restart. The rectifier will also
accept a restart command from the controller for a remote restart. The
rectifier will attempt to restart three times before issuing a rectifier fail alarm
to the controller.
Fan Alarm and Control
The rectifier contains a cooling fan. The fan’s speed, which is based on
ambient temperature and output power level, is lowered during low-load and
low-temperature conditions to minimize audible noise and maximize fan life.
Issue 1 August 2012 18
Galaxy Power System GPS2436
Thermal Alarm
The rectifier senses the internal operating temperature and will issue a
thermal alarm if the internal temperature exceeds a safe operating level.
Ambient temperatures above the maximum rating will result in a rectifier
shutdown and the issuing of a thermal alarm (TA).
Autonomous Operation
Rectifiers will continue to power the load if the controller fails or if
communication is lost.
Controller Communications Alarm
When communications between the rectifier and controller are interrupted,
the rectifier continues to operate and the red Fail LED on the rectifier blinks.
Connectorized
“Forced” Load
Sharing
The rectifiers provide the controller with a full complement of status and
alarm signals. The rectifier status and alarm signals, ac input, and dc output
are all connectorized for easy installation and maintenance. System
connections are made when the rectifier is plugged into the shelf. No
additional connections are required.
Internal rectifier circuitry will allow rectifiers to share load in the event
communication to the controller is lost or the controller malfunctions.

5 AC Input Panels
Overview
AC Service
The ac input panel provides the facility to terminate 3-phase ac service to the GPS2436 system
or to distribute individual 1-phase ac supplies to each of the system rectifier positions.
Depending upon the option ordered, the panel will connect 3-wire (three phases), 4-wire (three
phases + neutral), or individual 2-wire (single phase, either 2 hot leads or 1 hot lead and neutral)
input ac service.
Some options provide circuit breakers to protect the conductors providing ac service to the
individual rectifiers. Other systems contain a terminal strip and the conductors are protected by
circuit breakers located in the building’s ac service panel.

Wiring Alarm and Control Inputs
In a standard Galaxy Power System configuration, plant level alarms are sent to the
controller via the Bay Interface Card through serial data communication. The following
alarm inputs are provided for discretionary use in non-standard applications.
Table 9-C: Controller Alarm and Control Inputs
Also
Issue 1 August 2012 48
Galaxy Power System GPS2436
BSL-63 FAJ: Fuse Alarm Major
An optional battery potential input, must use an external 1K ohm 2W current limiting
resistor at the source. A Fuse Alarm Major is generated when battery potential is
received.
BSL-65 FAN: Fuse Alarm Minor
A battery potential input is required, which must use an external 1K ohm, 2W current
limiting resistor at the source. A Fuse Alarm Minor is generated when battery potential
is received.
BSL-72 OS: Open String Alarm
A battery potential input is required, which must use an external 1K ohm 2W current
limiting resistor at the source. This circuit is used to signal Galaxy that a battery string
protective device or switch is in the open position. An Open String Alarm is generated
when battery potential is received.
BSL-64 AMJ: Aux Major
A battery potential input is required, which must use an external 1K ohm, 2W current
limiting resistor at the source. This circuit is used to allow Galaxy to monitor another
power device and provide alarms for it. An Aux Major Alarm is generated when battery
potential is received.
BSL-66 AMN: Aux Minor
A battery potential input is required, which must use an external 1K ohm, 2W current
limiting resistor at the source. This circuit is used to allow Galaxy to monitor another
power device and provide alarms for it. An Aux Minor Alarm is generated when battery
potential is received.
LVD1: BSL-84 Low Voltage Disconnect Active
A battery potential input is required, which must use an external 1K ohm, 2W current
limiting resistor at the source if not using standard Lineage Power LVD circuit boards or
controller. This circuit is used to inform Galaxy that the monitoring circuit of a Low
Voltage Disconnect device has failed. In standard Galaxy Power Systems, the Bay
Interface board monitors these alarms and informs the Controller through the serial
interface connection.
LVD2/LVD2R: BSL-61/62 Low Voltage Disconnect Active
A closure between these points or a ground signal into LVD2/ BSL-61 is used to inform
Galaxy that the a Low Voltage Disconnect device has opened. In standard Galaxy Power
Systems, the Bay Interface board monitors these alarms and informs the Controller
through the serial interface connection.
External Boost Option
A variety of external devices may be used to initiate boost in Galaxy. Wiring is required
from positions 67/68/69 on the BSL board for operation of this feature. Providing a
contact closure between TBST and TRTN initiates the boost feature. A contact closure
between TFLT and TRTN returns the plant to float. Additional information on External
Boost can be found in the User’s Guide for Millennium II Controller Advanced Features
manual.
The controller is capable of sequencing rectifiers on line after detecting a AC is being
provided by emergency generator. Internal Rectifier Sequencing requires external
wiring to ETR/ETRR on BSL pin numbers 75/76, and optionally RO/ROR on BSL pin
numbers 77/78, in order to function.
The controller can also accept ground signals onto TR1 to TR4 on BSL 73/79/ 85/80 from
an external device to control the sequencing of plant rectifiers in groups as follows:
Table 9-D: TR leads and Associated Rectifiers
Additional information on the Rectifier Sequence Options can be found in the User’s
Guide for Millennium II Controller Advanced Features manual.
Battery Temperature Option
Slope Thermal Compensation and Battery Reserve Time Prediction features of the
controller, require that battery temperature be monitored. If either of these features is
to be configured in Galaxy software, a battery temperature input must be connected to
P3 temperature probe connector on the Controller board.
Three optional cables are used to connect to various battery arrangements:
Refer to User’s Guide for Millennium II Controller Advanced Features manual for
additional information on these features.
This is an alternate plant voltage source for user alarm systems. This power is fused with
a 1-1/3 ampere ABS fuse.
BSL-95,96 DG: Discharge Ground
Plant ground/return source for user alarm systems.
Fuses
Two Fuses, located on the MCR1 board, provide protection for the controller input
power and Alarm Battery Supply, used to power alarm panels or other devices requiring
the power system voltage at no more than 1.3A.

Front Panel Display
LCD
The primary local interface for the Millennium II is an eight-line LCD assembly mounted
to the front of the primary GPS cabinet door. This user interface is a panel that includes
a backlit LCD module, two sections of status LEDs, system voltage test jacks, and an
array of simple push-button controls. This controller supports multiple LCD display
assemblies. It is backwards compatible to both existing Millennium LCD assemblies L51
and L50shown in Figure 10-5. It is also compatible with the enhanced L52LCD display

assembly (see figure 4-6) specifically developed for the Millennium II. This new display
assembly is compatible to existing GPS cabinet doors and is functionally backwards
compatible to the Millennium. It looks very similar to the L51 option. LCD assembly, but
the L52 also provides a built-in audible alarm and digital contrast adjust that are only
available when used with the Millennium II controller.

11 Circuit Boards
Overview
Function
Circuit boards (sometimes referred to as “cards”) are included in the battery
connection and dc distribution panels to provide data to the controller.
Terminal Boards
Terminal boards are used to provide shunt voltage data to the controller, where
panels provide data that is used to calculate battery current; data from terminal
boards located on the dc distribution panels is used to calculate load current.
Alarm Boards
Alarm boards perform two functions:
• monitor panel functions and activate local indicators when faults occur on
the panel
• provide alarm data to the controller
Alarm/Terminal Boards
Alarm/terminal boards combine the functions of alarm boards and terminal
boards.
BLJ Terminal Board
The BLJ terminal board is located inside the cabinet door. The BLJ is the
termination point for all signal cables in each cabinet and between cabinets.

AC Surge Protection: It is important that ac surges reaching rectifiers do not exceed the capacity of the
rectifier internal surge protection. Protection must be provided external to the GPS system, if necessary,
to limit surge energy reaching the rectifiers. Site surge protection must be coordinated with rectifier
internal surge protection and must clamp at a lower voltage than the rectifier internal protection. The

• Insulation on field-wired conductors should be rated no less than 90° Celsius. Size
conductors based on listed recommendations. Wiring internal to enclosed
equipment cabinets should be rated at 105° Celsius (minimum).
• Torque or secure electrical connections to the values specified on labels or in the
product documentation.
• Alarm contacts on the office alarm connector are not fused within the controller;
therefore, current limiting protection for these contacts must be provided by
external circuits. Maximum ratings for alarm connections are 60Vdc and 0.5
amperes. Exceeding these maximum ratings could result in fire or damage to the
unit.
• In enclosed equipment cabinets, the chassis must be connected directly to the
cabinet ac service ground bus. For applications in huts, vaults, and central offices,
the chassis must be connected to the system integrated ground grid.
• This product operates equally well if installed as part of the Isolated Ground
Plane (Isolated Bonding Network) or the Integrated Ground Plane (MeshBonding Network, aka, Common Bonding Network). Lineage recognizes there are
different grounding techniques that are equally successful. Adhere to a
commonly accepted and consistent grounding approach to ensure personnel
safety, network protection, and proper equipment operation. Multiple low
impedance paths to Earth ground are essential.
• The equipment and subassembly ports are suitable for connection to intra-
building or unexposed wiring or cabling. The equipment and subassembly ports
can be connected to shielded intra-building cabling grounded at both ends.
