Why PS 100 ?
The PS 100 unit supplies back-up operating power for :
MV switchgear electrical mechanism ( motors and coils )
Transmission equipment ( e.g radio )
Protection relays , Fault passage indicators or others IEDs
And all others devices in MV/LV substations (LV breakers, PLC concentrator..)
The PS 100 has been designed for supplying power in distributed
architectures ( SC110A, Flair 23VD, VIP410, Sepam) to fit in LV cubicles of SM6,
Premset *
* New MV switchgear range (ex- Matrix project)

The PS 100 will offer a new elegant solution in application in current MV/LV
substations without RTU ( Remote Terminal Unit)
- is integrated in Advan6 wave 3
- in repetitive MV/LV substation with SM6, MH 24+, FBX & RM6 (3 or 4
functions)

Autonomy up to 24 hours
Depend on
Mainly the permanent Load (PL)
the Energy backup (Pb)
The type of battery (38Ah, 24Ah)
Temperature
Battery age

The non permanent load is estimated

to 16 Open&Close cycles of
Switchgear. (Ps)
I.e : 4 operating Sepam10 (4x8=32 W)
allows 12 hours of autonomy

PS100 supply capacity

3 examples of maximum number of
devices for 1 PS100:

CB with
protection
relay and
motorization

Switch with
Fault
detector and
motorization

1 PS100 supplies up to 2 protection

relays or 16 switches

ATS with 2 SW
or 2CB

15

With 3 or 4 protection relays, it is

recommended to use 2 PS100 with
redundancy
With an Automatic Transfer Switch
device, it is recommended to use a
second PS100 for protection relays.
For more than 4 Protection relays ,
PS100 isnt usable

Benefits
Optimized battery backup

Only one battery to simplify the replacement

The PS100 needs only one battery, simplifying replacement vs traditional
backup power supplies require a set of 2 or 4 batteries to produce 12V or
48V, with complicated replacement and adjustment of the battery pack.
Battery can be purchased easily, anywhere in the world : sealed lead 12V
battery ,10 years life

To prevent power network cuts

Enables output voltage backup in case of cuts up to 24 hours

PS100 protects and optimizes the battery duration

Ensures its charge with a regulated and temperature-compensated charger
Checks the battery and prevents the battery deep discharge level
Measures battery ageing and alarms before battery end of life

Benefits
High availability
PS100 is robust to the harsh environment of electrical substation
Reliability is a key point for Electrical substations :
Insulation: 10 kV,
- 40C to +70C operating temperature...
Electronic protection against over voltage, overloads and short circuit
Automatic restart after fault

Additional Energy back up to restart the installation after a prolonged network cut
an optional Energy back up can be enabled with a local push button to provide
energy for restarting the protection relays and electrical control of MV
switchgears at installation restarting.
Forecast backup reservation : 300 W - 1mm

Modbus communication port forwards monitoring data to allow optimized

maintenance operations.

A limitation, dedicated for radio units, is set up to avoid the battery deep discharge
