Product Introduction
Chapter 1 Product Introduction
1.1 General Description

The FPRB Flexi Power Rectifier System consists of a Power Shelf (AA27540L, NSN
Code CS7000030) with 6 to 9kW of output power using three individual 2kW AC/DC
rectifier modules (AA25000L/AA25000L-A, NSN Code CS7000001/CS7000021) or 3kW
AC/DC rectifier modules (AA27530L, NSN Code CS7000031) operating in a parallel
mode configuration.
The FPRB also includes a Power Distribution Assembly (PDA) with integrated battery
protection LVD, load/battery circuit breakers, battery current shunt and alarm signals to
the BTS EAC interface.
Although it has been proven that there will be no any damage in the event of accidental
using the Global FPRB on US application and Vice versa, it is still be a must for the
installer to check the correct version of the FPRB versus the customer requirement in the
field. For detailed shelf version conversion please refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13. For
detailed Matrix configurations please refer to Table 21 and Table 22.

Note:
(1) The 6kW configuration of the FPRB unit is fully compliant with the operational and power
output requirements outlined within the Product Specification at the maximum
ambient temperature 55°C (plus solar load).
(2) At -40°C external ambient start up and after a period of 15minutes operation, the FPRB is
fully compliant with the operational and power output requirements outlined within
the Product Specification.
3) The 9kW configuration of the FPRB unit is fully compliant with the operational and power
output. Requirements outlined within the Product Specification at the maximum
external ambient temperature of 50°C (+ solar load). An increase in external
ambient temperature above 50°C up to 60°C (abnormal operating temp) can result
in the system output power being derated.
Battery is disconnected by the LVD contactor from the –48V power supply during the
FPRB cold-start at -40°C.

• AC input
The rated input voltage of the FPRB is 180~276VAC (200~230 VAC –10%/+20%). The
rectifiers can be connected as single-phase 230 VAC inputs or as 400 VAC (phase to
phase) 3-phase Star or as 200 VAC (phase to phase) 3-phase Delta.
Table 6 shows the various rated inputs that the FPRB are applicable and allowed for.

The FPRB is designed to operate with extended operation input main voltage, at the
low range between 90 ~180 VAC (with derated output power, see Figure 1 for 6kW
FPRB and Figure 2 for 9kW FPRB) and at upper range between 276~310 VAC.
The FPRB accepts, without damage, single phase AC input voltage of up to 350VAC at
frequency of 45~66Hz, for a duration of up to 60s.

1.2 The Power Distribution Assembly (PDA)

The Power Distribution Assembly (PDA) is the internal power distribution assembly of the
FPRB. It has the following properties:
• AC power distribution.
The PDA supplies the rectifiers with three AC input power system types, as listed in
Table 6 by using a different configuration of the internal AC terminal block
connections.
• DC power distribution.
The rectifiers are all connected directly to a DC bus bar internal to the PDA.
The three battery back-up channels and two load channels are connected to the DC
bus bar through the internal miniature circuit breakers (MCB). Each battery breaker is
rated to 63A and each load breaker is rated to 80A.
• Battery control function.
The PDA carries out an automatic battery test periodically by the control unit (CU),
and records the last 10 battery test data including the test date, discharge current and
time, test end voltage, battery temperature, discharged Ampere-hours, etc.
The batteries will stop discharging and disconnect from the loads once the battery
voltage is below the “LVD” set point.
The user can set the batteries charge voltage level to commensurate with the
batteries in field, and set the Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD) voltage level to
disconnect the batteries from the loads to under deep discharging condition.
• Supervisor of the FPRB.
The PDA has a built-in MCU to monitor the status of the rectifiers and batteries such
as voltage, current and temperature, etc., and display the corresponding data through
the LCD and LEDS.
The PDA also supplies 6 isolated and floating EAC alarms for the BTS.

The PDA has an added feature to control and monitor the starting and stopping of
diesel engine generators depending on the battery charging needs.
The GUI provides the customer interface function to monitor and set the data logging
of the power delivered by the FPRB to the customer system.
The PDA has a built-in potential free relay which provides the signal to turn On /Off
the diesel generators.
It has an Alarm input signal which will be coming from the ATS so that the FPRB can
detect if the power is fed through Grid or through Generator.
• Network connection based on LAN.
The PDA can be connected to a user PC via the internal RJ45 interface. The user
can monitor the whole system via a web-based GUI.
• SNMP for ease of managing equipments in the IP networks.
The PDA can configure / down load and Upload information from the FPRB locally or
remotely via an Ethernet / IP protocol, interface port & SNMP protocol. The SNMP
protocol allows users to access all alarms, counters and configuration data.

1.3 The Rectifier

The FPRB supports the operation of up to three rectifiers in parallel. Each rectifier is an
AC/DC module, which meets the specifications listed in Table 6 and Table 9. The rectifier
has the following properties:
• Efficiency. The rectifier has over 95% efficiency at the nominal AC input voltage.
Refer to below.
AA25000L-A (NSN code: CS7000021can meet a typical 95%
efficiency at 230Vac input condition from 50% to 100% full load).
AA27530L (NSN Code: CS7000031) can meet a typical 95%
efficiency at 230Vac input condition from 50% to 100% full load).
• Over current protection. The rectifier shuts down once an over current is
detected, and recovers automatically when the fault is no longer present.
• Over voltage protection. The rectifier shuts down once an over voltage is
detected for the first time, and recovers automatically when the fault is no
longer present. If the over voltage is detected for the second time, the rectifier
will shuts down for ever until the AC power supply re-powers up to restart the
rectifier.
• Monitoring function. The rectifier monitors different parameters such as input
voltage, input power, output voltage, output power, etc., and sends out a
corresponding alarm signal in case it detects a fault.
• Self-cooling function. Each rectifier is forced convection cooled. The fan at its
back is replaceable.
• RS485 interface. The rectifier can be connected to the PDA via the internal
RS485 interface. In this way, user can monitor and control three rectifiers via
the GUI.

There should not be any loose parts, wires in the PDA.

3.6 Insert the cables through the cable gland if required.
Before inserting the cables through the cable gland, the AC mains and battery blocks must
be switched off.
If the cable gland was used, the AC mains cable, DC cables, temperature cable and parallel
cable are mandatory, however the Alarm In and Alarm Out cables are optional to pass
through the cable gland before installing them into the PDA.
The two cable glands are usually used as cable entries or bases on which the front cover of
the FPRB are installed. The user decides either to use the left, right or both cable glands
referring to the placement of the FPRB in field.
If two cable glands are used, the holes in the same position on the two cable glands are
used for the same cable. The use of the right cable gland is for illustration herein.
The cable gland configuration shown herein is recommended for the user; however the user
can distribute the holes in field freely.
Do not strip the end insulator of the cables prior to inserting them through the cable gland to
prevent crisscross.

3 DC Terminal Identification
The lower DC terminals and “RTN1~5” are shorted together for the positive earth
connection and connected to the system earth mechanically for Non-US Version.
For the US or Global Version, the positive is isolated from the Earth or Chassis. The upper
DC terminals are for the –48V connection.
DC terminals can be identified by markings on the DC inlet grommet. The DC terminals
internal the PDA and the pre-exit holes on the DC inlet grommet are in the one-to-one
relationship (see Figure 51 and Figure 52)
The names in Figure 51 and Figure 52 are for illustration purpose only. They are not printed
on the DC inlet grommet.
The “+/-” in Figure 51 and Figure 52 indicates the proper polarity of the load or battery string
to be connected.
In the event that the load in field has a protective earth cable, the user can connect this
grounding cable into any of the terminals in the lower row.

3.17 Parallel installation of the FPRB
In the event that BTS site configuration exceeds the power rating of a single FPRB unit, the
user can configure up to a maximum of three FPRB units in a parallel mode to share the
battery blocks and support the different loads.
In parallel configuration, two or three FPRB units can be stacked together or positioned
separately within 3 meters of each other. Only the stacked configuration is illustrated in this
manual.
FPRB parallel operation only support by CU firmware R1Bx or later. Parallel operation
is not supported by CU firmware PxAx, RxAx and other former CU firmware.
When upgrade the CU firmware for the paralleled FPRB systems, each FPRB unit
needs to be updated and re-started after the upgrade.
The S/N on the label is also the same of the internal CU.
Mixing of 2kW (NSN Code CS7000001 or CS7000021) with 3kW (CS7000031) is
not allowed. Refer to Table 22
• The Master / Slave setup of the FPRB units in parallel

The FPRB will be paralleled in a master / slave mode. User can control and review all the
FPRB units in the parallel system through the master FPRB, either via LCD or web GUI.
After powering on each FPRB unit in a parallel system, the CU will detect the serial
number (S/N) of each FPRB, and the unit with the newest S/N is defaulted as the master.
According to the S/N definition in Figure 96, a S/N number ‘G7083770009’ contains the
information: plant code ‘G7’, manufacture date ‘Year 2008, Week 37’, sequence number
‘70009’.
For example in Figure 97, the ‘FPRB #1’ is defaulted as the master and the other two
units as the slaves since the S/N ‘G7083770009’ is newer than ‘G7081500036’ and
‘G7074801770’.
Slave shelf or shelves are distinguished by blinking Green LEDs on the PDA.

The parallel installation of the two FPRB units Figure 99, Figure 100 and
Figure 101 show some parallel configuration examples of the two FPRB units.
The user should choose a proper configuration referring to the actual battery/load conditions in
field.
Figure 98 shows the current sharing between two battery blocks. The load / battery
switch lever bar and terminal short link should be removed when the breakers
supporting separate load / battery. Therefore each battery block will be protected by
MCBs from over current.
In Figure 98, the blue and green arrows indicate that the battery might charge or discharge
from different bus bars via the sharing cable connecting the two or three FPRB systems.
The red arrow indicates the loop current that might happen between the battery blocks.
The current flow in Figure 98, represents all possibilities that will happen in FPRB parallel
configuration.
6KW and 9KW systems cannot be mixed in parallel configurations.

Browser and Control Unit Setup
Chapter 4 Browser and Control Unit Setup
This chapter describes how to set up the FPRB Control Unit (CU) and the User’s PC, in
order to be able to connect to the CU via the Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI).
The web-based GUI is optimized for a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels or higher.
Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox browsers are both supported and are
available for download free of charge from their suppliers:
• Microsoft Internet Explorer: www.microsoft.com
• Mozilla Firefox: www.mozilla.com
The CU provides boundless connectivity within private intranets, which includes
connections via Virtual Private Network (VPN). It also supports direct connection between
the User’s PC and the FPRB CU. Following the IEEE rules, each CU has its own unique
MAC address.
There are two ways to change the CU IP-address to connect to the user’s PC in the local
Internet / intranet.
For the browser and CU setup, the unit requires powered up.
Make sure all the protective earth terminals; extension cords, and devices connected to
the FPRB are well grounded. Any interruption in the protective grounding will cause a
potential shock hazard that might injure people.
There must be lightning protection if the setup is carried out outdoors.
FPRB is equipped with Ethernet cable with built-in connector rubber sealing to meet
IP65 protection.
4.1 Set up the configuration environment

Set up the configuration environment was shown in Figure 115.
User can use the end equipment in filed -- the BTS as the loads and battery blocks as DC
source for configuration as shown in Figure 115, but make sure:
All the breakers are in the OFF position before powering on the PDA.
The field battery blocks should have a voltage between 43V and 54V.
Verify the polarity of the battery leads and their connection before connecting them to
the PDA.
Verify that there are no shorts between the loads, batteries, and returns strings. Use a
multi-meter to ensure this at the DC cable terminals.

FPRB
Figure 115 – Setting up the configuration environment
Connect the FPRB to the user’s PC with an Ethernet cable.

Turn on the three battery circuit breakers to power up the PDA, and verify its normal
operation through the LED status on PDA front panel as per Table 13.
4.2 Change the CU IP-address via the LCD

After normal power on, the user can view the information embedded in the CU via the
LCD.
Refer to Appendix B of the ‘Flexi Power Rectifier – User Manual’ (Artesyn file No. 970-
009474-0000) for the detailed use of the PDA LCD.
The user can read and change some system information via the LCD, e.g. the battery
settings, the factory settings, alarm settings, etc.
Change the CU IP-address into the local IP-range. E.g. if the local user’s PC former IP-
address is “192.168.100.100”, the CU IP-address should be changed to “192.168.100.x”
(the last digit “x” should be different from that in the user’s PC IP-address).
In the parallel configuration, each CU should be changed the IP-address to
“192.168.100.x” (different last digit “x” for different CU and local user’s PC). In this way,
the user’s PC can access each CU in the local Internet / Intranet.
Now the user can link to the PDA CU with the Ethernet cable.

4.3 Connect to the GUI in local Internet / Intranet

Assume that the CU IP-address is “192.168.100.101”. Open the browser and type the
target address in the address field “192.168.100.101” to connect the CU in the local
Internet / Intranet.
The GUI will ask for a “username” and “password” (see Figure 116.
The following users are supported:
• Root User: Full Access to all functionality of the FPRB System, released to the
user.
o Username: “root”
o Password: “default” (this password can be changed as one of the
functionalities of the Root User)
• Admin User: This user is only applied for the service person, not released to the
user.
• Calibration/Factory User: This User is only for internal use like calibration and
uploading factory data, not released to the user.
Figure 116 – Login the GUI

Login as the root user (key in the root / default) and enter the GUI home page as shown
in Figure 117.
Now the user can view all the information of the system by clicking the submenu on the
home page.
Figure 117 – The GUI home page (1)
4.4 Change the CU IP-address via the GUI

User can also change the PDA CU IP-address via the GUI. This need to change the IP-
address of the user’s PC and connects to the CU.
4.4.1 Set up the user’s PC
In order to connect to the FPRB CU, the IP-address of the user’s PC should be within the
same IP range of the CU.
Assume the CU IP-address is 142.120.72.172. User has to change the user’s PC IP-
address to 142.120.72.x (the last digit “x” should be different with that of the CU IP-
address) so as to connect to the CU.
Follow the steps below to set up the IP-address of the user’s PC:
(1) Go to the Network-Settings and to the “Properties” menu of the active TCP/IP
connection (see also Figure 118).

Figure 118 – Local Are Connection – Properties
(2) Chose the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) menu and select the “Properties” menu (see
also Figure 119).
Figure 119 – Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) – Properties

(3) Within the “General” menu chose the “Use the following IP address” option. The IP-
address must be in the same subnet as the IP-address of the CU and the “Subnet
mask” (e.g.: with the subnet mask “255.255.255.0”).
Each FPRB unit has a same IP-address set in factory before shipment. This IP-
address is “142.120.72.172” with the subnet mask “255.255.255.0”.
User has to change the user’s PC IP-address to “142.120.72.x” (the last digit “x”
should be different with that of the CU IP-address) so as to connect to the CU.
See also Figure 120; change the user’s PC IP-address to “142.120.72.173”, the
subnet mask to “255.255.255.0” and leave the default gateway blank.
Figure 120 – Allocate secure IP-Address

With this setup, the PC is able to open a direct connection between the PC and the
CU. Note that it is not possible to establish other connections when the PC
communicates with the CU.
After disconnection from FPRB, the user shall restore his/her IP configuration to the
previous settings to maintain integrity of the PC for its regular use.
After changing the IP-address, the user’s PC may disconnect with the local Internet /
Intranet.

4.4.2 Connect to the GUI

Open the browser and type the target address in the address field (e.g.: the CU
address ”142.120.72.172”).
Login as the root user (key in root / default) and enter the GUI home page (see Figure
121)
Figure 121 – The GUI home page

4.4.3 Change the CU IP-address via the GUI

The user should change the CU IP-address into the local IP-range so as to be accessed
by the user’s PC in the local Internet / intranet.
Within the submenu “Access” (under main menu “Maintenance”), change the IP-address
into the local IP-range. E.g. if the local user’s PC former IP-address is “192.168.100.100”,
the CU IP-address should be changed to “192.168.100.x” (the last digit “x” should be
different from that in the user’s PC IP-address).
Assume change the CU IP-address to “192.168.100.101” and click “Update” (see Figure
122).
After changing the CU IP-address, the user’s PC may disconnect with the CU.
Figure 122 – Setting up the CU IP-address

4.4.4 Connect to the CU in local Internet / Intranet

Change the user’s PC IP-address back to the former “192.168.100.100”.
Open the browser and key in the CU IP-address “192.168.100.101” to connect the CU in
the local Internet / Intranet (see also Figure 117).
Now the user can view all the information embedded in the CU, e.g. the battery settings,
alarm settings, factory settings, etc.
In the parallel configuration, each CU should be changed the IP-address to
“192.168.100.x” (different last digit “x” for different CU and local user’s PC) via the GUI. In
this way, the user’s PC can access each CU in parallel / chained in the local Internet /
Intranet.

use a multi-meter to check this at the AC plugs.
There are no shorts between the loads, batteries, and returns cables. User can use a
multi-meter to check this at the DC cable terminals.
Note the environment requirements referring to the product specification (Artesyn file No.
970-009471-0000 and No. 970-009472-0000).
See the User Guides of the test equipments to ensure the correct use.
The IP65 is no longer guaranteed if the Ethernet cable is connected to the system. After
finishing the commissioning, The Ethernet cable should be removed and the connecter
seal should be replaced to the RJ45 hole to provide IP65 protection.
It is recommended to commission each FPRB individually, before putting it into the cabinet
and connecting it with the other devices to prevent problems or ease any required debugging.
All the commissioning data can also be read through LCD (refer to the ‘Flexi Power Rectifier –
User Manual’, Artesyn file No. 970-009474-0000) in the event that the Ethernet cable is not
applied.

Commissioning
5.1 Set up a commissioning environment

(1) Set up a commissioning configuration as shown in Figure 123.
Connect the BTS, battery blocks, AC power source and the user’s PC with the cables
that have been already installed.
Before power on, make sure:

All the breakers and AC power source switch are in the OFF position.
The battery blocks have a voltage between 43V and 54V.
The proper polarity of the battery leads before connecting it to the PDA.
There are no shorts between the loads, batteries, and returns strings. User can use a
multi-meter to check this at the DC cables’ terminals.

Commissioning
5.2 Battery input commissioning
User should check the battery voltage with a multi-meter before turn on the battery switch or
battery breakers. If the battery voltage is below 43V, it cannot be connected to the FPRB
directly.
Turn on the battery and load breakers to power the PDA and loads with battery blocks.
Ensure the normally operation through the LED status of the PDA referring to Table 13.
Assume the battery blocks have a voltage of -50V, and load current is -12A. The GUI will
display the battery status as shown in Figure 124, and these values can also be read
through the LCD.
Compare these values with those measured by a multi-meter to verify the normal
operation of the PDA.
The voltage and current measurement has been tested in factory before shipment. Thus
the user can only check the voltage test in field.

Troubleshooting
Chapter 7 Troubleshooting
The end user is able to view the rectifier or system alarms via the GUI. Table 35 and
Table 36 list these alarms and the recommended actions.
The alarm severities in Table 35 and Table 36 are defaulted, and user is allowed to
change them via the GUI (refer to the ‘Flexi Power Rectifier – User Manual’, Artesyn file
No. 009474-0000).
Besides the alarms indicated from GUI, some failures listed in Table 37 are likely to
happen.
The AC mains must be switched off prior to removing the PDA from the case. The battery
can be always switched on to support the load while accessing the PDA.
Some alarms and failures listed in Table 35 through Table 37 may be corrected by simple
action of the end user. More in depth might be referred to the Artesyn Embedded
Technologies service and support people.
The user is forbidden to open the PDA restricted area or rectifier in any case.
Only qualified person can carry out the troubleshooting.
