9 Parallel Operation

9.1Principle of Operation

PROTECT 1. has been designed for parallel operation with n+x technology (“n” here stands for the number ofunits required for load supply, “x” for the degree of redundancy)Up. to 3 units of the same type can be connected in parallel here to increase the output power and/or achieve higher availability.

This results in the following constellations with n+x technology:

1 + 0

Use of 1 unit

max. 10, 15 or

No redundancy

 

 

20 kVA

 

1 + 1

Use of 2 units

max. 10, 15 or

Single redundancy

 

 

20 kVA

 

1 + 2

Use of 3 units

max. 10, 15 or

Double redundancy

 

 

20 kVA

(max. expansion level)

2 + 0

Use of 2 units

max. 20, 30 or

No redundancy

 

 

40 kVA

 

2 + 1

Use of 3 units

max. 20, 30 or

40 kVA

(max. expansion level)

3 + 0

Use of 3 units

max. 20, 30 or

No redundancy (max.
