J. Schneider C-TEC 2403 USB

Description

J. Schneider C-TEC 2403 USB Capacitor buffered Power Supply, The buffered DC power supply of the CTEC series includes ultra-capacitors as energy storage inside the housing. During normal operation this capacitor is charged from the system voltage (Ue). The connected DC consumers are supplied as well from the system voltage. In case of an interruption of the system voltage, the energy of the ultra-capacitor is released regulated. With a dc/dc converter the load is supplied from the capacitor until it is discharged. The backup time depends on the state of charge of the capacitor and the discharge current.

The power supply hast he following characteristics:

  • Maintenance-free  because of long-life ultra-capacitors
  • Mikrocontroller based charging and discharging oft he ultra-capacitors
  • Control of operation and status of charge with potential-free contacts and LED
  • Capacity extension possible with external capacitor extension modules
  • ‚Ue-o.k.‘ message via USB

The TECControl software (optional) monitors permanently the mains. The C-TEC equalizes mains disturbances  (blackout) or short time drops of the input voltage (brownout).

In case of mains failures > 2 Sekunden the C-TEC signalizes the mains failure to the PC, which conducts a system shutdown after an adjustable time. Subsequently the C-TEC as well as the IPC are switched off. In case of mains return, the C-TEC releases the output voltage, so that the system is able to restart automatically. If the mains returns during the shut down procedure, the C-TEC separates nevertheless the PC supply for a short time, so that the PC can restart afterwards without error.

With this function all mains failures can be handle without problems, even complete systems may be switched off only with the main switch and the C-TEC respectively the TECCONTROL take over the complete internal switch off routine of the system. So downtimes and damages because of an uncontrolled process stop are avoided.
