PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The PEC3875B controlled ferroresonant rectifier floats lead-acid battery strings of 23 or 24 cells comprised of either
the wet or VRLA battery design and supplies current to the load. PECO II’s universal load sharing circuit allows the
rectifier to proportionally load share with ALL major brands of control ferro rectifiers making it an excellent choice for
adding to or replacing rectifiers at a site. Local AC On/Off, DC output fuse, Float/Equalize and test switches, voltage
and current meters along with adjustments for float and equalize voltages are provided to facilitate installation, operation
and maintenance. PECO II’s universal controller interface allows the rectifier to work with a variety of conventional
and intelligent interfaces (PECO II, Marconi, Tyco, etc.*). Connectors accept standard interface cables for Tyco CCS,
MCS and Galaxy* (pending) controllers. The reduced overall size of each unit allows more rectifiers to be installed
in a given space, while conduit knockouts located on both the top and front of the unit allow installation flexibility. The
controlled ferroresonant design of this product provides an efficient and cost effective approach to power conversion with
the benefits of enhanced reliability, reduced TIF and RFI, improved power factor, and high immunity to transients.
This rectifier may be used with all makes and models of -48V power plants.
