| The
ILc-VRp dual range automatic precision voltage regulator with built-in
low-impedance isolation transformer allows trouble-free operation of
electronic equipment over a very wide ac voltage range of 120V or 240V
+/-20% found in many developing countries. Output regulation responds in
less than one line cycle and corrects output voltage to +/-2.5% with
20,000 corrections per second. There is no switching of taps or otherwise
a break in the power path as continuous PWM (pulse-width-modulation)
switching of the primary winding of a buck-boost transformer leaves the
secondary power path intact. Typical ILc-VRp
applications
Designed for applications where
absolutely safe and precisely regulated ac power is required, such as
mobile telecommunications, wireless, satellite and carrier equipment.
Key ILc-2000-VRp-Dual-Range
system benefits
The lightweight, high efficiency dual voltage range ILc-VRp is easy to
install in indoor environments. The unit comes in a rack-mountable
enclosure and has the ability to accept either 120 vac or 240 vac +/-20%
input via either a IEC 320 C-20 input connector for the 120vac, or an
IEC 320C-13 inlet connector for the 240 vac. Power output is up to
1800 watts, and can be drawn from Either/or Both 115 vac and 230 vac
+/-2.5%, as long as total output power is not exceeded. 115 vac and 230
vac outputs are provided via two standard NEMA 5-15R receptacles for the
115 vac, and one UK BS1363 outlet connector for the 230 vac. The
automatic bypass assures that connected equipment will not shut down,
even if the ILc-VRp unit were to fail. The ILc-VRp is compatible with
all loads as it does not switch any components in the power path.
ILc-VRp’s ultra-low impedance assures stability even with the most
demanding loads. The isolation line conditioner components provide
maximum equipment protection against surges, spikes and transients, for
higher equipment reliability and maximum equipment operating life. In
addition, improved repeatability, fewer reboots or system lock-ups.
Also, a reduction in equipment down time and service costs can be
expected. Maximum transformer and regulator performance, reliability and
lifetime is achieved by a design with no moving mechanical parts other
than a thermostatically controlled high reliability cooling fan to
control the unit’s internal temperature.
How the ILc-VRp
2000VA dual range system works
The ILc-VRp unit is comprised of an automatic precision voltage
regulator, and an isolation line conditioner. Unit has a front panel key
switch to select either 120 vac or 240 vac, with a safety interlock to
prevent voltage from appearing on unused terminals. The high frequency
IGBT driven converter microprocessor takes the incoming ac power,
measures against the nominal voltage and adds or subtracts voltage,
20,000 times per second, to achieve precisely regulated 230 or 120 vac
output, cycle by cycle. Voltage correction times do not exceed 1 cycle,
or 20 milliseconds for all mains ac voltage changes, even for
instantaneous voltage changes from 96 to 144 vac (when at the 120 vac
input setting) or from 192 to 288 vac (when at the 240 vac input
setting). The ILc-VRp starts on sine wave zero voltage crossing point
upon turn-on. This reduces potentially damaging inrush currents into
difficult loads. The automatic bypass will be activated when there is a
fault condition, and makes operation possible without regulation. Three
LEDs display unit status, the Green LED indicates Normal (regulating
protected mode operation), Yellow LED indicates Bypass (non-regulated
output), and the Red LED indicates a Fault condition. (If Green LED is
off, it means internal circuit board needs replacement). A low-impedance
isolation transformer provides complete isolation between the primary
and secondary, and permits bonding its output neutral to ground, which
completely eliminates all disturbances between neutral and ground. The
leakage inductance of the isolation transformers, in combination with
capacitive elements and MOVs, provide superb noise filtering, as well as
coordinated multi-stage surge protection in accordance with the
principles of IEC-61312. |
