System Description
The NetSure™ 7100 and NetSure™ 8100 Multi Cabinet 48V DC Power Systems are complete integrated
power systems containing rectifiers, intelligent control, metering, monitoring, and distribution. These power
systems are designed to power a load while charging a positive grounded battery. These power systems
are capable of operating in a battery-less installation or off-battery for maintenance purposes. These power
systems are designed for operation with the positive output grounded. The power systems can be
configured as ordered for either overhead or under-floor cabling.
See Figure 1 through Figure 3 for typical equipment arrangements. A system consists of the following
components.
• Main Cabinet
The system always includes one (1) main cabinet. The main cabinet houses optional AC distribution, DC
load distribution, a battery fuse unit, rectifier mounting shelves and the main system controller. The battery
fuse unit contains battery disconnect fuses or circuit breakers, a shunt and a low voltage disconnect (LVD)
contactor.
• Extension Cabinets
Vertiv | NetSureTM 7100 and 8100, Multi Cabinet 48V DC Power Systems Installation and User Instructions (11 VA 4529 BL) | Rev. G 9
The system may include up to four (4) extension cabinets. The extension cabinets house optional AC
distribution, DC load distribution, a battery fuse unit, rectifier mounting shelves and an extension controller.
The battery fuse unit contains battery disconnect fuses or circuit breakers, a shunt and a low voltage
disconnect (LVD) contactor.
• NCU Controller (Main Controller)
The system contains one main controller. The controller provides power system control (including battery
low voltage disconnect control), rectifier control (including a charge control function), metering functions,
monitoring functions, and local/remote alarm functions. The controller also supports rectifier temperature
compensation if the system is equipped with a temperature sensor. Temperature sensors may also be
designated to monitor ambient temperature and/or battery temperature. The controller also provides data
acquisition, system alarm management, and advanced battery and energy management. The controller
contains an LCD display and keypad for local access. The controller provides Ethernet connection and
supports software upgrade via its USB port. It also comes with a comprehensive web page and SNMP
capability for remote system management. Refer to the NCU Controller Instructions (11 KO 7503 JL) for
more information.
• EXU Controller (Extension Controller)
Each extension cabinet contains an Extension Control Unit (EXU).
The EXU measures DC bus voltage, battery current, load current and battery voltage, and reports the data
to the NCU. The EXU acquires digital values from battery fuses/circuit breakers, load fuses/circuit breakers,
and LVD contactor(s) and reports the acquired data to the NCU.
As long as the EXU communicates normally with NCU, it accepts the parameter setting and control
command from NCU. This includes commands to open or close Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD) contactors.
If communication fails, the EXU can control LVD contactor operation according to its parameter setting or
acquired data. The EXU monitors the system current and voltage and displays them on the LCD.
Refer to the EXU Controller Instructions (11 VE 0162 PB) for more information.
• Rectifier Module Mounting Shelf
