DG Cranking 24V
Intelux DG Cranking Systems at 24V and 12V provide advanced ultracapacitor-based energy modules specifically engineered for reliable diesel generator (DG) starting at telecom sites. Designed for high-cranking performance, these systems deliver rapid bursts of power to ensure generator start-up even under adverse voltage, temperature, or maintenance conditions—making them ideal for remote and unattended locations.
Construction Details:
The system comprises a robust assembly of ultracapacitors, integrated with protective circuitry and housed in a compact, IP54-rated enclosure. Designed for integration with generator panels, it includes terminal blocks, LED indicators, and optional remote monitoring for real-time charge status and fault alerts.
Benefits:
- High Efficiency & Scalability: Supports modular rectifier addition based on load requirements.
- Compact & Rack-Mountable: Space-saving footprint ideal for indoor/outdoor telecom racks.
- Battery Integration: Intelligent charging and protection for diverse battery technologies.
- Advanced Monitoring: Real-time performance tracking via LCD controller and remote protocols.
- Field Proven Reliability: Rugged construction and proven performance in harsh environments.
- Custom Distribution Options: Configurable output ports with breakers or fuses.
