Battery Back Up Units for DC Power Management |
| |
|
| Weidmuller's Battery Back Up Unit (BBU) is
designed to be the heart of an uninterruptible DC power management system. The
connectPower BBU combines with Weidmuller power supplies and a
customer-supplied battery pack to form a scalable DC power system. This enables
users to put together a system uniquely tailored to their needs. |
| |
|
| These full-featured units have all the
diagnostics needed to monitor the status of the power system. These DC power
management units interface with the DC power supplies in the control cabinet.
In addition, they monitor the status of the DC loads and the DC batteries. If
the AC is removed or experiences a voltage sag, the load is switched seamlessly
to the batteries. When the AC line is restored, the batteries are recharged and
maintained. |

|
| With the BBU Power Supply, 2A of battery charging
current is available at 24VDC, and 3A with the 12VDC units. Extensive
monitoring is provided via LEDs. Relay contacts provide battery status
indication and fault indication. |
