4 Sub-Assemblies
The PCS100 ESS consists of the following parts:
– PCS100 Rack or Cabinet
– PCS100 Module
– PCS100 Master Module
– PCS100 Metering Interface
– PCS100 GDM Display
Together these sub-assemblies are referred to as the PCS100 ESS System.
4.1 PCS100 ESS Rack and Cabinet
The PCS100 ESS system contains an appropriate number of PCS100 modules for the rating of the product. Each
module has a unique identification number (1 - 32), which is displayed on the front of the module as shown in
more detail in section 5.2.
Depending on the requirements of an application, the modules can be placed either in a rack or in a cabinet. If
cabinet construction is selected, all parts will be delivered fully assembled in a cabinet. To be ready for use only
the cabinets need to be connected in parallel in case more than one cabinet is needed for the application. On the
other hand, if rack construction is selected, the certain parts are shipped separately and will have to be assem-
bled into the rack system before the PCS100 ESS system can be used.
As shown in more detail in section Error! Reference source not found., the maximum number of modules varies
between rack and cabinet systems: A single cabinet can contain up to 6 modules. In case of one or two modules
a transformer can also be included in the cabinet enclosure as detailed in the product range in section 2.3. A sin-
gle rack can contain up to two rack sections of 1000 mm, giving a maximum of 16 modules (max. 8 modules per
rack section). For PCS100 ESS systems requiring more than 16 modules, two racks can be connected with a cen-
ter termination as explained in more detail in section Error! Reference source not found..
