The Smartpack controller is a monitoring and control unit used as the vital nerve center of the DC power plant. You operate the system from the elegant front panel, using three front keys and the LCD-display. They represent the main interface between you and the system.

Specifications

Input Voltage 24/48/60 VDC nominal system voltages

Dimensions (WxHxD) 109 x 44 (1U) x 140 mm / 4.3 x 1.7 x 5.5”

Applications

CAN bus communication Smartpack utilizes a digital interface architecture (CAN bus communication). It allows the unit to support dedicated communication channel with each rectifier, providing for increased number of functions and greater flexibility.

Modular design

The Smartpack is extremely flexible in its expandability. Additional units connected to the CAN bus can be added to provide extended functionality and increased number of measuring points. Accordingly, system components can be set up and upgraded to meet the demand of any tailor-made power solution.

Product Description

The Smartpack controller is a powerful and cost-effective module, developed for monitoring and controlling a wide range of Eltek Valere’s DC power supply systems, such as Powerpack, Flatpack2 and Minipack DC power systems. You can also operate the system locally via a PC using the PowerSuite PC application, or remotely via modem, Ethernet and the Web. The module then utilizes the USB- or RS-232 ports to interface with a local PC, SNMP or Web adapters.

Key Features:

Front panel LCD and buttons for on-site service without PC. (Not on Basic Slave model)
USB- or RS-232 interface for PC connection locally or remote monitoring and control via modem, Ethernet, web or SNMP.
6/2 user programmable relay outputs for traditional remote monitoring
6/2 user programmable inputs for monitoring of other equipment on site
Battery monitoring and testing without site attendance
Temperature compensated charging for increased battery lifetime
Battery lifetime indication
Password protected operator access levels
Alarm/event log with time and date
Windows-based PC communication software

Remote Monitoring and Control

From a PC running PowerSuite a Windows-based communication program installed on a remote computer, the system can be monitored and controlled via modem or Ethernet network
From a PC running a WEB Browser the system can be monitored and controlled via Ethernet network
From an NMS via Ethernet (SNMP) With an SNMP agent connected to the Smartpack, the system can be monitored and controlled from a Network Management System (NMS) through Ethernet on Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Using alarm relays (voltage free contacts) 6/2 internal failsafe alarm relays provide voltage free contacts that can be connected to equipment used for traditional alarm monitoring

LCD and three keypads for local operations If any alarm (major or minor) is activated, a (red or yellow) LED is lit in the front panel, the alarm text appears in the LCD and the corresponding alarm relay is activated In normal operation, the front LCD will display the output voltage, battery current, load current and charge mode. (Not on Basic Slave version)

Available Alarms

All alarms can be set up with monitoring of minor, major, average and peak levels.
