The SCM-R, is a 1U high 19″ rack mount unit with digital controller and monitor for the Powerstax range of ultra low profile 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 9,600 Watts (i.e. 4 x R2400 shelves each fitted with 3 x A0800 cartridges – see fig. 1 right)
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.
