The ECS Battery Plant, H569-408, is shown in Figure 1-1. This
member of the ECS family of battery plants operates from a
nominal 208/240-volt ac, 50/60-Hz source. It offers a 300-
ampere total plant capacity with a nominal 48-volt dc output in
a totally integrated energy system.
The basic plant consists of charge and discharge bus bars with
optional low voltage disconnect, a distribution panel capable of
accepting up to 42 circuit breakers, an ECS controller, space for
two rectifier shelf assemblies which can connect up to six -48-
volt, 50-ampere switch mode rectifiers and space for one string
of LINEAGE® 2000 375-ampere hour VR Series 48-volt
batteries.
The plant's modular front-access design facilitates installation,
growth and use in confined locations. Plant output current
capacity is increased by adding LINEAGE® 2000 50-ampere, -
48-volt rectifiers to the rectifier shelf assemblies. Functionality
is added to the basic controller by two optional circuit packs, one
