4.3.5Description of Internal Sequences in the Power Supply Unit

Given in this section is background information on internal sequences in the power supply unit.

Behavior Upon

Failure of the

System Supply

When the System

The behavior of the power supply unit after a system supply failure is

Supply Fails

governed by the duration of the failure:

IF the system supply failure...

is shorter than the stored energy time for power failure

is longer than the stored energy time for power failure

THEN...

the PSU output voltages are within tolerance ranges; no indication appears on the front plate and no signal is sent to the S5 bus.

a data save routine is initiated on the CPU/CPUs and an output inhibit is issued.

Redundant Data

To ensure data backup, your CC and EU 185 are provided with a lithium

Backup

battery, and the power supply unit with a rechargeable battery.

 

In the event of system supply failure or switch-off, data backup is provided

 

by the lithium battery and, in the event of battery failure, by the rechargeable

 

battery which is permanently recharged to remain constantly operative.

 

After replacement of a defective lithium battery, the new one resumes data

 

backup and you must acknowledge the fault LED on the front panel.

 

As the rechargeable battery is withdrawn during the replacement of a power

 

supply unit, data backup is temporarily performed by the lithium battery.
