Applications of DC generator for telecom

The fuel type modular parallel DC generator has the characteristics such as lightweight, compact,
high efficiency, low fuel consumption, intelligent, very high quality DC output, and can be
connected in parallel. When the normal power supply (mains, wind or solar) is cut, the DC
power from the fuel powered rectifier not only ensure the power supply for the loads, but also
charge the batteries, therefore realize the "uninterrupted power supply" for the telecom
equipments. It is suitable to be

1. The portable emergency power for base stations, repeaters, and access networks;
2. The stationary backup power for VVIP base stations, transmission node base stations,
remote base stations (high mountain base stations), renewable energy base stations (wind
and solar), etc.
3. The portable power for cut-over or commissioning of the telecommunication bureaus or
base stations.
4. The backup power for repairing rectifiers and batteries, and the mobile backup power for
important events.
5. The portable power for boats/ships for charging battery and powering the DC equipments
on board.
6. Any other sites which may use high quality telecom grade -48V or +24V DC power, such
as railway, CATV, Army, UPS, banks, etc.






Solar Photovoltaic/Wind/Micro-Hydro Systems are small scale power generator stations.
Following is an overview and brief description of the main components that make up a
renewable energy power generating system.
Solar modules, wind generators and micro hydro generators are charging sources, they
create DC voltage and current, which is regulated for charging batteries. A regulator controls
the amount of voltage and current to maintain a battery bank at its optimum level, therefore
maintaining maximum efficiency and battery life. A regulator prevents overcharging of the
battery bank resulting in reduced battery life.
The battery bank is the heart of the system, batteries are charged and discharged daily, this is
called a cycle. Battery life depends on how many times the battery bank is cycled at a certain
percentage of discharge per day. DC Power is stored in batteries.
DC loads, through circuit protection can be used for Extra low voltage lighting, refrigeration
pumping and other appliances.
An inverter converts DC voltage and current into 240V 50 Hz AC Sinewave power, equal to the
supply authority electricity grid. Any appliances connected to mains power can be used on a
sinewave inverter. Lighting, Computers, TV's, Microwave Ovens, Washing Machines,
refrigeration and general kitchen appliances all operate efficiently through a 240V 50Hz
sinewave inverter.
A battery charger converts 240V AC from a back up generator into extra low voltage DC used
to charge a battery bank. A battery charger is used to make up any shortfall of power from
renewable energy charging sources. An example would be where successive overcast days
reduces the solar array output. A battery charger is used for equalizing the battery bank assuring
that sulfation and stratification which can reduce the battery bank life is eliminated. This is also
known as gassing which is important for maximum battery life.
