System Management Unit

System Management Unit
At the digital and power electronics level, the system management unit combines all
DEEP BLUE components on board into a single system.
High-performance system controllers ensure the operational reliability of all system
functions and their ease of use.
In more complex DEEP BLUE systems, several system management units can be net-
worked with one another.
The system management unit is available in sizes S and L.
AC Charger

AC Charger
The high-voltage batteries of the DEEP BLUE system are charged by means of one or
more AC chargers. The AC chargers convert the AC voltage of the shore supply into
high-voltage direct current (DC) electricity for charging the high-voltage battery.
The electrical connections are made in a separate switch box (Shore Power Distribu-
tion).

Shore Power Distribution L
The Shore Power Distribution S allows the use of a single charger unit. With the
Shore Power Distribution L, up to three charger units can be operated. Depending
on the model, this unit ensures that the shore power connection is disconnected
when the Emergency kill switch is triggered. In addition, the 12 V battery is support-
ed. The Shore Power Distribution L can contain fuses for AC and DC supplies.
