2 Introduction 2.1. General Information DC Power Plants from APC have unique features that make them easy to install, maintain, and upgrade. The rectifier units are modular and truly “hot-pluggable” into the shelf assembly without any separate ac wiring. The Magnum VS 50 has 1 shelf, holding up to five rectifiers for a rated current of 50 A. The Magnum VS 100 has 2 shelves, holding up to ten rectifiers for a rated current of 100 A. All system settings are made from a standard PC us

3 Installation 3.1. Unpacking Equipment Remove equipment from packing material and inspect for shipping damage or missing items. It is important to report damage or material shortages to the shipping carrier while a representative is on site. If concealed damage or material shortages are found at a later time, contact the shipper to make arrangements for inspection and claim filing. Refer to Section 10 in the event it is necessary to return equipment to APC. CAUTION: Appro

Ventilation The rectifier modules for this system have fans that provide front-to-rear airflow for internal cooling. The power system housing should be mounted such that there is free airflow to the front and back of the unit. [Refer to Section 9.5 for environmental characteristics.] Free airflow should be ensured so that the power system can provide full power without de-rating. 3.3. AC Power Connections WARNING: Ensure that all of the external dc and ac circuit breakers are in

3.4. Battery Connections WARNING: Hazardous energy levels are present on bare conductors in the dc distribution connection area of the plant. Accidental shorting of distribution conductors can cause arcing and high currents that can cause serious burns or other physical harm. It is recommended that: • Remove any jewelry, rings or watches while working on this equipment. • Use insulated wrenches, screwdrivers, cutters, pliers and other tools.

3.5. Counter Electro-Motive Force (CEMF) Cell Connections WARNING: Hazardous energy levels are present on the CEMF connection area of the plant. Accidental shorting of conductors can cause arcing and high currents that can cause serious burns or other physical harm. In some applications, a CEMF cell is used to lower the dc voltage delivered to the loads. The CEMF cell is mounted externally to the Magnum VS. The CEMF connections are located at the rear of the unit as shown in Fig

3.7. Load Protection Installation Circuit Breaker Installation Standard circuit breaker output boards are available with two 30-A breakers or one 60-A breaker. Output boards are installed at the factory and are generally not field replaceable units. Contact APC if the output configuration is not suitable for your needs. Other breaker sizes are not readily available. GMT Fuse Installation Fuse holders that accommodate GMT fuses are located on the front panel on the left side of

3.8. Load Connections Cable Size Considerations The dc load cable(s) should be sized to limit the voltage drop from the dc power plant to the loads per system design requirements. The cable(s) must also carry the full load current during battery operation. During battery operation the voltage will be lower and for constant power loads, the current will typically be higher. If assistance is required to determine the necessary cables for the application, contact your sales representa

Figure 3.9-3 shows the alarm output connection designations. Whenever possible use the common and normally closed contacts. If the alarm wiring gets pulled loose, or the controller is removed, you will get an alarm. The Major relay is energized (C-NO contacts closed) during normal (non-alarm) operating conditions; the other relays energize when an alarm condition occurs. If your Major relay wiring uses the C-NO contacts, then a major relay output will be seen whenever the controller is r

2) Slide the rectifier module into the shelf between the guides until it is fully seated. 3) Fasten the rectifier in place with the captive rectifier retaining screws. Since all adjustments are made from the system controller, no rectifier adjustments are necessary. 3.11.
