Galaxy Pulsar Edge Power System Controller
Issue 3 October 2011 81
Plant Shunt Type
Definition type for the on-board shunt used for centralized plant
architectures that are designed with a single shunt to monitor load or
battery current. The on-
board shunt monitor may be configured as
“NONE”, “BATTERY”, or “LOAD”.
The factory default is Battery.
Note: the shunt must be mounted in the grounded side of the system’s
DC bus. Possible damage may occur if the shunt is connected
incorrectly.
Plant Shunt Rating
Current rating of the shunt being measured by the on-board shunt
circuitry used for centralized plant
architectures. Shunts are assumed
to have a 50mV rating.
The rating can be set from 0A to 9999A with a factory default setting
of 150A.
Values are adjusted to rating of shelf when controller is
shipped installed in a shelf.
ID1-8
The operation Type of each shunt monitoring circuit on system
distribution boards 1-8
must be assigned based upon actual system
implementation.
The controller will display the individual values of
the shunts as well as sum “like” to provide a total.
The operational Type may be
: None (For no shunt), Battery
(Monitoring battery currents), and Load (for load currents).
ID1-8 Rating
The current rating of each shunt being monitored by the system
distribution boards 1-6 must be configured based upon actual system
implementation. Al
l shunts are assumed to be 50mV. The current
rating may be from 0-9999 Amps.
The factory default is 600A for load shunts and 800A for the battery.
All Loads
Monitored
When Enabled, the All Load Monitor feature automatically links all
Shunt Monitors conf
igured as “Load” monitors to the system total
load. This feature is operational only when the Plant Shunt Type is
configured as NONE.
The factory default is Disabled.
