A Step into the Future

High power applications

High power density- three times more
than previous generation
6 rectifiers SMPS 4000 in one shelf
giving 510 Amps at 48V and 750 Amps
at 24V
4 shelves in one cabinet giving up to
2040 Amps at 48V and 2250 Amps at
24V
Parallel connection of rectifier cabinets
possible. AEON Gold can control up to
96 rectifiers in parallel

AEON 4000
Cabinet Options

Single PR and two PR available in top and

bottom entry versions
Internal DC distribution available for single
PR and two PR options

Internal Distribution

2PR / 48kW power system with internal

distribution and top access:
Internal distribution only for cabinets with one or
two shelves of rectifiers- max. 1020 Amps at 48V
and 1500 Amps at 24V
External batteries only
Reduced cost compared to previous generation

AEON 4000
External Distribution
2 x 3PR power system with external distribution cabinets

Distribution cabinets up to 6000 Amps

External batteries only
Reduced cost compared to previous generation

AEON 4000
Distribution Cabinets

High capacity cabinets, maximum 6000 Amps

Modular units enabling easy expandability and less assembly
time, saving production cost
Totally 8 plug-in modules in each distribution cabinet
The design allows both MCBs, MCCBs and Blade Fuses to fit
in standard plug-in distribution module
Other distribution requirements can be fitted upon request.
Engineering required
Single distribution cabinet for less power will be designed for
future applications

Load

Batteries

System voltage: 48 VDC

Max. Load (Ib): 700 A

Min. backup time (tb): 4 Hours

Min. recharge time (tr): 24 Hours

Necessary recharge current:

Ir=(0.9*1.2*Ib*tb)/tr
Ir=(0.9*1.2*700*4)/24=126 A

Necessary system current:

Is= 126 A + 700 A=826 A
Battery recharge =18%

Number of rectifiers:
n=826/75 + 1= 12(incl. Redundancy)

System: 2PR with internal distribution
