Installation

CAUTION ! Electrostatic sensitive devices

Electrostatic sensitive devices are protected against destruction by electrostatic charge by means of protective structures at the inputs and outputs. In unfavorable cases, however, plastic floor cov-erings, non-conductive work surfaces, or clothing containing artificial fibers can result in such high charges that electrostatic sensitive devices can be damaged or even destroyed despite the protective networks mentioned. If a device is damaged its reliability decreases drastically, al-though it may be a long time before the effects of the damage are noticeable.

In order to ensure that electrostatic charges are eliminated harmless when working on the system you must observe the following points without fail:

1. Before carrying out any work on the system ground yourself with a wrist strap.

2. When working on modules always place them on a grounded, conductive surface

3. Only transport modules in suitable pro-tective bags.

The following points must also be observed during installation:

DANGER!

The device has to be installed in a locked room, with admission for commissioning personal only. It must be excluded that other persons except the commissioning personal has access to this equip-ment.

ATTENTION!

Sufficient cooling has to be provided!

1. Before installing the device the ground-ing wire must first be laid and connected to ground potential.

2. Connect the grounding wire immediately after installing the device or setting up the cabinet.

3. Use shoe grounding strips.

Warning!

There is a risk of electrostatic discharge up until the grounding wire has been connected even if you are wearing a wrist strap. If possible you should therefore not touch modules and wiring before then.

When dismantling the system the grounding wire must not be disconnected until all work has been completed.

PowerLink Description in Brief

The PowerLink system permits carrier frequency transmission of speech, data, telecontrol, and teleprotection signals via high voltage overhead power lines and cables.

Carrier frequency equipment must match the particular characteristics of the high voltage line. High interference levels over the transmission link and the high attenuation over longer transmis-sion routes require particularly powerful transmission. The requirements for reliability and availabil-ity are especially high in relation to the transmission of protection signals. For the most efficient utilization of the available frequency range, a high degree of selectivity is necessary.

In opposition to other PLC systems there is no additional hardware required for channel alloca-tion. For the different applications like voice, data or protection signal transmission with the SWT 3000, the equipment can be extended by integrating modules (VFM, VFS resp. VFO) for con-necting a modem or external teleprotection as well as for various telephony services.

Transmission Mode

The signals are transmitted using the single side band method (amplitude modulation) with sup-pressed carrier

Frequency Range

The transmission is carried out in the frequency range from 24 kHz to 1000 kHz. The frequency positions of the HF send and receive band can be selected regular or inversed.

Frequency Grid

The frequency grid is adjustable to 2.5 kHz resp. 4 kHz. The frequency adjustment is possible in steps of the half grid (1.25 kHz resp. 2 kHz).



Mechanical Construction

PowerLink systems consist of 2 module frames, the carrier-frequency section (CFS-2) and the line equipment section (PLPA). For the PLPA section, a distinction is made between 50 W and 100 W transmit power. The terminals are built to the proven ES 902-C design pattern. The dimensions of these module frames correspond to the 19" mounting system in accordance with DIN 41494 and can be installed directly into 19" swing frame cubicles or mounting frames without any additional fixing brackets.

The modules of a module frame are electrically connected to each other via a backplane with the appropriate sockets and plug connectors. The module frames are connected to each other by plug-in connectors and cables with integral connectors.

CFS-2 Part

The ports for the external interfaces are mainly centralized on a connector panel. It is connected via the backplane with the CFS-2 part, and located between the PLPA and the CFS-2. For VF and telephone channels Sub-D 37 pin, and for RS232 channels Sub-D 25 pin sockets are existing, which are accessible from the front.

The module frame for the carrier frequency section (CFS-2) consists of a 19” module rack. It con-tains the power supply (PSCFS), the central signal processing module (CSPi), and depending on the configuration max. 2 alarm modules, up to 2 integrated SWT 3000, as well as max. 3 VF inter-face modules (VFx) and optional a versatile multiplexer vMUX.

At the right-hand part of the frame, module slots are located for the mounting of the modules CSPi, VFx and vMUX in double-height euro card format. The modules have a common front cover with a cut-out for the service interface and the displays resp. operating elements of the CSPi mod-ule.

Alongside on the left, the slot positions for the power supply and the 2 alarm modules are located.

The mounting positions for the integrated SWT 3000 can be equipped with the processing unit PU3g and 2 interface modules IFC.

Note:

For more details concerning the functional description of the PowerLink and integrated SWT 3000 we refer you to the PowerLink equipment manual.



Installation of the Module Frames

The module carriers are suitable for installation in 19" swing frames or mounting frames. The fas-tening elements which are required are included in the scope of delivery. No special tools are needed for the installation.
