VRLA balteties are very much sensiive [0 ripple content and vollage regulation. With the wide range of voltage variation in the 3-phase power supply system available; uncontrolled rectification is detrimental for the VRLA batteries. Further AC to DC rectification can acd to the inherent power line disturbances by distorting the waveform due to harmonic current injected into the power supply network. In addition to the above, appreciable amount of energy is wasted in workshops during discharging of batteries through resistors. Keeping in view the energy conservaton there is also a need of efficient discharging system which can help baiteriee to dicchargo onorgy back to power supply network. Therefore, Digital Signal Processing (DSP) contolled IGBT based AC to DC rectification (converter) with active Power facior correction with fine control on voltage regulation, ripple, THD and improved effcioney with vo-gonerative feature io issued for charging the batteries of TL & AC coaches. The unit will work satisfactorily for conventional low maintenence lead acid battery also. SCOPE ‘This specification covers the design, manufacture and supply of DSP controled IGBT based charge/discharge equipment with active power factor correction, which can charge the rolling stock batteties and feed power back to the power supply network during discharging mode The Unit shell be designed for charging of VRLA and LMLA batteries. 2.0 SYSTEM OPERATING DETAILS The unit shall be designed in such a way that it neither affects nor damages the nearby electrical manta The aglied auay stan erthe me housing MLA oe Bed below: - A. VRLA Battering Tha VRLA batteries are normally charged in constant voltage mode and partially charged in constant current mode. Maximum charging current is allowed to 20% of the rated 10 hr capecity of the battery and 7% in constant current mode. The recommended voltage of charging is 2.3V per call durng boost mode and 2.26V per call during float mode. The trip ‘shail be set at 2.35 V per cell for boost charging and 2.30 v per cell for float charging. Auto mode charging has been explained later in the specification. B. Low Maintenance LEAD Acid call hatteries: These types of batteries are charged in constant current mode with charging current of 10 % of the rated AH capacities of the batteries, Charging current shall not exceed the set value by more than 1%.
