SCM-R
1U high 19" Rack Mount Control and Monitor Module
The
SCM-R, is a 1U high 19” rack mount unit to control and monitor
the Powerstax® range of ultra low profile R3000, R2400 &
R2250 AC-DC power systems.
The
SCM-R has been specifically designed to suit a wide range of applications,
to be easy to install and operate and to provide Real Time Monitoring
and Control of up to 12 individual hot-swap power modules that used
in parallel can supply a maximum 12,000Watts (eg: 4 x R3000 shelves
each fitted with 3 x A1000 cartridges – see fig. 1 left)
Using
industry standard I²C serial bus interface, the Powerstax SCM-R
digital controller allows the operator to select each individual
power module and adjust the voltage over the output ranges of 23-29VDC
or 46-58VDC in minimum 100mV steps.
Extremely
compact with an ultra low 1U high profile, the SCM-R measures just
482.6 wide (19”rack mount) x 43.56mm high and 84.29mm total
depth. The easy-to-use unit gives simple module selection and voltage
adjustment by front panel mounted rocker switches, while bright
front panel LED displays provide the operator with a clear indication
of module address and voltage plus the output current of the module
being read.
Other
features include automatic compensation for battery temperature
while the status of other system-critical operating parameters can
be taken directly from the power module rack.
The
SCM-R is easy to install with a 25 way D plug connection between
the controller and back of the power shelf and is powered from the
BUS voltage of the system thus dispensing with the need for an external
power source.
Ideal
for applications that are powered from a battery, ac-dc input, load
sharing and low-voltage backup power systems, the Powerstax SCM-R
can be used in a wide range of industries, such as telecoms, datacomms
and industrial control.
