Ultra-rugged AC / DC UPS optimised for 24V long-term bridging
The newly introduced AC / DC UPS solution UPSI-2406IP-38AC from Bicker Elektronik , Donauwoerth / Germany , ensures uninterruptible power supply of safety-relevant 24VDC applications , such as control and regulation modules , embedded box IPCs , drives , actuators , sensors , lighting and safety technology in case of AC mains failure and voltage dips . The particularly safe and long-life LiFePO4 battery technology is used as energy storage and enables up to 100h long-term bridging . The intelligent DC emergency power supply with AC wide-range input thus reliably avoids system failures , downtimes and data loss . The particularly robust design with IP65 protection makes the new UPSI-2406IP-38AC the ideal choice for demanding environmental conditions . Typical applications include heavy industry , petrochemicals , tunneling and mining , security and building services , energy , infrastructure , environmental technology , communications , lighting technology , commercial and special vehicles , food industry , chemicals and agriculture .
Robust aluminium housing with protection class IP65
The high-quality aluminium housing protects all components of the emergency power supply from mechanical impact : Both the intelligent DC UPS control and charging electronics ( 24V / 6A ) with upstream AC / DC converter and the integrated lithium iron phosphate battery pack . The sealed housing elements and connections are resistant to water , ice , oil and dust in accordance with protection class IP65 . An integrated pressure compensation element with membrane prevents condensation inside the unit . The operating temperature range of the UPSI-2406IP-38AC extends from -20 to + 50 ° C . The high-quality ÖLFLEX ® input and output cables are permanently installed on the
84 FDPP - www . fdpp . co . uk housing . Four slotted holes allow safe and flexible wall or pole mounting of the AC / DC UPS . A pole-mounting kit is available as an option .
24VDC long-term bridging up to 100 hours
Uninterruptible power supply ( UPS ) of sensitive or safety-related 24VDC systems supplied from the AC mains is particularly important in case of blackouts , brownouts or flicker . For international use , the UPSI-2406IP-38AC has a wide-range AC input from 90 to 264 VAC with active PFC and high-efficiency AC / DC converter topology . In AC mains operation , which is automatically set after the input voltage is applied , the 24VDC output is activated and the integrated LiFePO4 energy storage is charged at the same time . In case of a voltage drop of the input voltage below the smallest nominal value , the UPS is switched to battery operation with regulated DC output voltage within fractions of a second and enables backup times of up to 100h . When the AC input voltage returns , the UPS is automatically switched back to regular mains operation and charging of the energy storage continues .
Integrated LiFePO4 highperformance battery pack
The LiFePO4 energy storage ( lithium iron phosphate ) with 330Wh convinces in safety-relevant applications with a particularly stable battery chemistry , a long service life of at least 10 years and more than 6000 full charge and discharge cycles . Bicker Elektronik deliberately uses the particularly safe lithium iron phosphate chemistry for all highperformance battery packs , which makes thermal runaway almost impossible . The UPSI-2406IP-38AC also meets the safety requirements of the IEC / EN 62040-1 standard . The battery management system ( BMS ) monitors and controls the complete charging and discharging process of each battery cell of the energy storage unit . The integrated cell balancing ensures a balanced and even charge of all cells so that the full capacity of the lithium iron phosphate battery pack remains permanently usable . In addition , the UPSI-2406IP-38AC offers a battery start function , which makes it possible to start a 24V application from the battery by pressing a button on the UPS ( up to 6 A max . load current ), without the AC voltage supply being present .
