2 Model Definition
2.1 Type Code
The PCS100 ESS type code is given in the product ta-
bles. The type code is a unique code for the specific
PCS100 ESS model and specifies all the components
that are used to construct the model. To the type code
given in the product tables options can be added,
which are called plus (+) codes.
The diagram on the right outlines the structure of the
type code:

Number of Power Modules
This is the number of modules used in the PCS100 ESS system, which depends on the load kVA.
One PCS100 ESS cabinet can have up to 6 PCS100 power modules and one PCS100 ESS rack converter up to 32 mod-
ules. In case a bigger system is required multiple PCS100 ESS can be connected in parallel. In this case, the units must be
tied together with separate transformers or multi-winding transformers.
Type of Power Module
There are two types of power modules available for the PCS100 ESS, which differ in their DC voltage range. The D-type
module is suitable for DC voltages up to 820 Vdc. For higher DC voltages the C-type module has to be used, which can run
up to 1120 Vdc.

This is the standard rated AC voltage. Other operating voltages (as indicated in brackets) can be achieved based
on sizing criteria and software settings. The product will be delivered set up for the voltage specified in the sizing
tool.
