Eco Capable Systems - Pulsar Plus only

Eco capable systems (Eco systems) add support for multiple power inputs of multiple types, including PV (photo voltaic or solar) arrays.

Power Input

• PV (photo voltaic or solar) arrays

• AC generators

• AC mains

Rectifiers

NE Eco Rectifiers

• Input - AC or DC (PV or solar) input

• MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) maximizes power harvested from PV arrays

• Recommended for all rectifier positions in Eco systems

Controller

• Pulsar Plus

• Eco features included (PV, Gen Set, etc.)

REQUIRED – Eco rectifiers in all DC (PV or solar) powered rectifier positions.

RECOMMENDED – Eco rectifiers in all Eco system rectifier positions. NOT RECOMMENDED – non-Eco rectifiers in Eco systems.

Non Eco rectifiers will not function properly when powered by DC (PV or solar) input in Eco systems. Use of non-Eco rectifiers in Eco systems increases the risk of improperly filling all system rectifier positions. Non Eco rectifiers may be installed in AC powered rectifier positions of Eco systems.

Aux Display - NE830A (Optional)

The Aux Display is a voltage monitor that alarms when the voltage of the power system is out of the normal operating range. It is mounted on the door of the distribution box.

• Fully independent of the main system controller

• Displays one or two system voltages and battery state:

• Single voltage systems, -48V, +24V

• Dual voltage systems, -48V and +24V with common return

• The display and LED color indicates battery charge state and wiring errors:

• Green display = batteries are not discharging

• Red display = batteries are discharging

• Amber display = wiring error

• A Battery on Discharge alarm relay with form-C contacts is provided

• Can be panel, wall or frame rail mounted within 150 ft of the power system

This section applies only to NE-M Eco systems

NE-M Eco systems power some rectifiers from PV (photo voltaic or solar array) and others from ac, typically a generator.

Each terminal block powering rectifiers can be connected to either PV or ac, but not both.

The PV/AC Partition Kit (150028727) divides the Input panel into separate input sections for PV and AC fed terminal blocks.

The position of the partition is site specific. Follow all site engineering instructions. This position indicated in this section is only an example.

The ES771 modules must be referenced to the most negative potential of the DC bus. This reference is achieved by the proper setting of Jumper 11 next to the relay configuration jumpers. Following are the appropriate settings for negative and positive power plants. The jumper is set in the factory for positive systems unless the controller is shipped with an assembled system that has a pre-determined primary output bus. It is suggested that an insulated tool be used to set the jumpers.

The controller is factory configured with a converter output voltage set-point of -54.50V for 48V converters and +27.25V for +24V converters.

Note: If Slope Thermal Compensation (STC) is active or if the connected batteries are not fully charged, the

bus voltage may be different than the set-point. If possible, open the external battery disconnect prior to making measurements to eliminate these effects. If QS873 VT probes are installed in the system. STC may be active. This will be indicated by the Plant Mode “FLOAT – TEMP COMP”.

Non-Eco rectifiers powered by PV (solar) panels will not operate properly.

• Under some conditions their LEDs may indicate normally operation: Norm LED ON.

• Various other LED conditions and rectifier status (observed via the controller) may occur with variations in

DC input and load.

Rectifier/Converter Troubleshooting

1. Verify rectifier positions per the procedure in the Verify Rectifier Positions section.

2. Observe and compare Rectifier/Converter Status LEDs with Controller Status information.

3. Use the table below as a troubleshooting guide.

Rectifier/Converter LEDs

Normal operation: No alarms, inputs and outputs are in their normal range, communicating

with the system controller.

1. Remove and reinsert unit.

2. Check input voltage with a voltmeter;

if input voltage is present, replace unit.

3. Check output bus voltage with a voltmeter;

if output bus voltage is present, replace unit.

Standby: The unit is okay, but has been placed in Standby by the controller and is not delivering power. Note: If a unit in standby loses communications with the controller it will exit Standby mode

Safety Statements

See equipment specifications for installation and environmental limitations.

• Do not install this equipment over combustible surfaces.

• Follow all national and local rules and regulations when making field connections.

• Compression Connectors

• For installations in the U. S. or Canada, use Listed/Certified compression connectors to terminate

Listed/Certified field-wire conductors where required.

• For all installations, apply the appropriate connector to the correct size conductor as specified by the

connector manufacturer, using only the connector manufacturer’s recommended or approved tooling for that connector.

• Torque electrical connections to the values specified on labels or in the product documentation.

• Dress cables to avoid damage to the conductors and undue stress on the connectors.

• Field-wired Conductors - Follow all National Electric Code (NEC) and local rules and regulations.

• Size field-wired conductors based on listed recommendations, National Electric Code (NEC) and/or local codes

based on 70°C ampacity.

• Insulation rating: 90°C minimum; 105°C (minimum) if internal to enclosed equipment cabinets.

Precautions

• Install, service, and operate equipment only by professional, skilled and qualified personnel who have the necessary

knowledge and practical experience with electrical equipment and who understand the hazards that can arise when working on this type of equipment.

• Disconnect batteries from outputs and/or follow safety procedures while working on equipment. Batteries may be

connected in parallel with the output of the rectifiers. Turning off the rectifiers will not necessarily remove power from the bus.

• Do not disconnect permanent bonding connections unless all power inputs are disconnected.

• Verify that equipment is properly safety earth grounded before connecting power. High leakage currents may be

possible.

• Exercise care and follow all safety warnings and practices when servicing this equipment. Hazardous energy and

voltages are present in the unit and on the interface cables that can shock or cause serious injury. When equipped with ringer modules, hazardous voltages will be present on the ringer output connectors.

• Use the following precautions in addition to proper job training and safety procedures:

• Use only properly insulated tools.

• Remove all metallic objects (key chains, glasses, rings, watches, or other jewelry).

• Follow Lock Out Tag Out (LOTO) procedures: customer specified, site specific, or general as appropriate.

Disconnect all power input before servicing the equipment. Check for multiple power inputs.

• Wear safety glasses.

• Follow Personal Protective Equipment requirements: customer specified, site specific, or general as

appropriate.

• Test circuits before touching.

• Be aware of potential hazards before servicing equipment.

• Identify exposed hazardous electrical potentials on connectors, wiring, etc.

• Avoid contacting circuits when removing or replacing covers;.

• Use a personal ESD strap when accessing or removing electronic components.

• Follow procedures for working at heights more than 4ft above the floor: customer specified, site specific, or

general as appropriate.

• Personnel with electronic medical devices need to be aware that proximity to DC power and distribution systems,

including batteries and cables, typically found in telecommunications utility rooms, can affect medical electronic devices, such as pacemakers. Effects decrease with distance.
