PowerVision brochure

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document details BLOCK's advanced power supply systems, particularly the PowerVision series. BLOCK is a leading company in power supply interfacing, known for its in-house development and production in Germany, which allows for flexibility and quick response to customer needs.

PowerVision System: This system is presented as a technically advanced and cost-effective solution, featuring components with communication capabilities and maximum power reserve. Innovations include fully-equipped Line versions that eliminate the need for multiple diagnostic modules.

Single-phase Switch Mode Power Supply: The PVSE 230 series offers compact, single-phase power supplies with significant power reserves, ensuring high system availability. It supports selective protection and reliable starting of high-current loads.

Three-phase Switch Mode Power Supply: The PVSE 400 series is an economical option with accurate output voltage and features like real power boost and top boost functions for enhanced operational reliability. It includes options for active inrush current limiting and isolated DC OK signalling.

Electronic Circuit Breakers: The document describes electronic circuit breakers like PVFE 24 and PVFB 24, designed to enhance system protection and reliability.

Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS): The PowerVision UPS includes accumulator management and buffer modules to ensure continuous power supply and system reliability.

Redundancy Modules: These modules, such as PVRE 24 and PVRB 24, are designed to increase system reliability by providing backup power options.

Accessories and Technical Data: The document lists various accessories like adapter cables and mounting trays, along with detailed technical data for the PowerVision series.

Key Features: The systems offer features like real power boost, high installation flexibility, fault memory, and RS-232 interface for enhanced performance and ease of use.

Specifications: The document provides technical specifications for the PVSB and PVSL switch mode power supplies, as well as the PVFE and PVFB electronic circuit breakers. These devices are designed for high operational reliability in machines and systems, offering advanced monitoring and communication capabilities.

Features: Both PVSB and PVSL models offer real power boost and top boost functions for enhanced power reserves. Devices include a display for real-time monitoring and fault diagnostics. Communication with higher-level control systems is facilitated via RS-232 interface and free PowerVision software. Active signal outputs serve as watchdogs, providing critical state alerts.

Recommendations: Utilize the parameterization software for customizing signal outputs and monitoring settings. Consider the PVSL model for comprehensive input and output monitoring to ensure maximum operational reliability. For selective protection of 24 Vdc circuits, use PVFE or PVFB circuit breakers to detect and isolate faults efficiently.

Integrated Monitoring Unit for Maximum Safety: The PVFB module ensures maximum system availability and process reliability by detecting potential faults such as overcurrent, channel tripping, undervoltage, and hardware faults. It features integrated current limiting to prevent voltage dips in unaffected circuits during short circuits, safeguarding vital system components.

Communication and User Interaction: The PVFB module communicates faults and system status through LEDs, a display, signal outputs, and an interface. Non-critical faults are indicated by a yellow LED, while critical faults are shown by a red LED. The display continuously shows output and input voltages, and the module can communicate with a PC or control system via a serial interface.

Tripping Characteristics and Current Limiting: The module allows for separate rated current settings for each channel, with active current limiting ensuring unaffected circuits remain stable during short circuits. The tripping time for shutting down a current path is configurable, and channels can be reactivated using module keys.

Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS): Uninterruptible power supplies provide backup power to 24 Vdc consumers during power failures. The PVUA module offers optimum battery management, current and voltage monitoring, and extensive signaling options.

Accumulator Management: The PVUA module detects faults such as overcurrent, output shutdown, undervoltage, low accumulator charge, and hardware faults. It supports complete current and voltage monitoring with numerous signaling options.

Buffer Modules: Buffer modules like the PVUC are maintenance-free and compensate for brief power supply failures, extending operational reliability. They feature long buffer times, signaling through LEDs, and an isolated signal contact.

Redundancy Modules: Redundancy modules, such as PVRE and PVRB, decouple two power supplies to create a fail-safe power supply system. They include reverse polarity protection, condition monitoring LEDs, and isolated signal contacts.
