Converters in a feature rich power conversion system offer flexibility and redundancy to the critical network architecture. The Majortel 1U Converter system is a compact rack mounted design that supplies critical equipment solutions requiring 48V dc from a 125-130V dc power source or electric utility provider substation battery. Each dc-dc converter system is designed to occupy a true 1U (1.75” height) rack space in a standard 19” width rack and under 11” deep. Fault-Tolerant design installations will include two compact, high density and reliable high-frequency 25 amp dc-dc converters, for a total system capacity configuration of 50A output in the single selected voltage for the application. Power Industry User approvals for the converter product continue to grow, since the first electric utility market application one decade ago in 2013.

A conversion power system capacity is user configurable for 25A or 50A** applications. The dc to dc converters are hot-swap capable facilitating field upgrades from 25 to 50 amps in a matter of minutes or module replacement without service disruption to the critical infrastructure equipment. link to: “Majortel DC/DC Converter Circuit”

The MTS-Com centralized man-to-machine interface is included with every system. The integrated controller monitors critical system conditions and facilitates system programming. The controller functions include fault alarms, alarm threshold adjustments, voltage adjustments and overall system status. This easy to read screen allows the user to program the unit with only a few buttons. The unit toggles audible alerts, LEDs and Form-C contact closures based on the system monitored parameters. link to: “Controllers for Majortel”
Technical Application and Installation Considerations
The power product output is factory-set to the default voltage and can be user adjusted to meet application requirements. Although the installation task is straightforward, study the installation manual information carefully for optimum performance. A user manual (IOM: Installation and Operations Manual) ships in every system carton.
All connections to the power product are made to the terminal blocks located on the rear of the chassis. Labels identify the details of the terminal connections. The cabling (connection wire) and rack mount screws are user-furnished items. These items are custom to each installation and therefore not supplied with the power product.
The Majortel DC-DC Isolated Power Converter is a single rack unit DC-DC system. Each system is designed with advanced power electronics and microprocessor technology features.
Our Majortel DC Converter Module (MTDC) architecture is a field-proven, versatile line of industrial grade converters providing regulated, filtered and protected output, suitable for applications requiring low ripple and isolated dc output.
Each converter module is galvanically isolated from input-to-output and floating, therefore permitting the following:
A. The dc input to the converter can be positive ground, negative ground, or floating. Neither positive nor negative side of the input is connected to the chassis ground.
B. The converter dc output is isolated from the input and floating. Neither positive nor negative side of the output is connected to the chassis ground.
C. Dielectric Isolation Rating: 4242 Vdc / 3K Vac Input-to-Output
The MTDC power module offers an advanced soft-switching design, which increases operating efficiency and reduced switching noise. Ripple is reduced to less than 10 mV RMS in applications without battery.

Output Circuit Breaker Design
Individual circuit breakers facilitate connection of multiple loads. Each over current protection device (OCPD) is rated for full system output at 50 amps. During system commissioning, switch ON each Load 1 & Load 2 output breaker. Any “active” load alarms will clear when the toggle position sensor is confirmed by the controller. About a mid-trip breaker design; the alarm auxiliary switch will only signal, to the controller, on a fault condition in the OCPD. For example, the breaker toggle will be physically tripped by the over-current condition then stop at a mid-point in the sweep to indicate a “tripped” condition. Moving the toggle in a full sweep, from ON to OFF, will not create an alarm in the system.
These systems have been field tested, approved and deployed from ISO public power operators to leading IOU electric power utility corporations deploying “Utility Smart-Grid” technology for the future.
