Being a converter designed from the ground up specifically for the yachting industry, all efforts have
been made to produce a system capable of withstanding the marine environment. All system
components are packaged in one drip-proof, dust-resistant stainless steel enclosure. Major
components are internally modular, allowing a simple exchange in the unlikely event of failure.
Complete maintenance and service can be provided with only front and top access to the system.
Three lightweight power modules can be removed and replaced through the front and top panels for
repair or power level upgrade.
System operation is managed through three basic operators. A safety disconnect on the front of the
enclosure is used for securing input service during maintenance and service. Three membrane switch
groups in the control console, SHORE POWER, CONVERTER POWER, and SHIP’S POWER,
provide normal operation of the system. Each switch group contains an ON and OFF switch with
associated LED indicators.
In addition to the basic function of power conversion, each converter provides the user with a
sophisticated power analysis and monitoring capacity. All parameters for input and output power,
along with operations and status information, are available on the front panel display console.
Various displays are selected through a long life, sealed membrane switch panel.
For additional information on controls and indicators, please refer to Section 6.
