EMEX Central Power Supply Systems Catalogue

Cabinet levelling feet available to cope with

uneven floors

A comprehensive 12 page instruction manual

is included showing all battery connections,

full electrical schematic and commissioning

instructions

All cabinets are supplied with lifting eyes and

have been certified for crane lifting, even when

full. Alternatively, a 110mm plinth is fitted to all

cabinets to allow fork-lift access

No side ventilation is required. Cabinets can be

positioned directly adjacent to walls and other

cabinets. This reduces floor space requirements in

the plant room

Equipment is supplied ‘Ready to install’. Simply

connect the mains supply, battery and output

circuits

Benefits for the installer

EMEX Power installation is easy and trouble free.

All tools required to install and maintain the

system are included (insulated battery spanner,

Allen key, etc)

All cables are provided

Inter-cabinet trunking connects adjacent cabinets

allowing battery cables to safely pass between

battery and control cabinets without the need for

an external cable tray. All cabinets are pre-drilled

and rubber grommets are fitted for battery cables

The battery voltage does not exceed 120V DC.

Larger systems utilise banks of batteries in parallel,

each with its own circuit breaker in the control

cabinet. There is no high DC voltage (some

inverter systems utilise battery voltages up to

600V DC)

A large top entry gland plate provides enough

room for all connection needs

| System benefits

Benefits for the end-user

Emergi-Lite is the manufacturer of the system,

providing a single source of technical support,

spares, service and repair

All equipment is designed and manufactured at

our Leeds facility in the UK

EMEX Power operates in a low power mode; the

load is supplied via the incoming mains supply,

with the inverter on standby for immediate

start. This can provide substantial cost savings

for the customer, as the inverter is not running

continuously, generating waste heat that has an

effect on battery life. Cooling fans only operate

when on load and are high reliability types

Minimal servicing is required on the inverter

system, reducing maintenance costs. Greater

savings on maintenance can be made if the

inverter system is integrated with an automatic

testing system

EMEX Power is built around five major

components; master inverter module, slave

inverter module, charger module, changeover

contactor and display unit. Regardless of the

number of systems on a site, spares holding will

be similar for all systems. This greatly reduces

spares cost

Owing to the modular nature of the entire system,

any component can be replaced in approximately

15 minutes, reducing down time should a fault

occur

‘Distributed System’ modular concept – It could

be possible that all the emergency lighting is

lost owing to a single Central Power Supply

System failure. The EMEX Power modular format,

however, allows the user to design different sizes

of system into the scheme, thus overcoming the

potential risk. This ‘distributed’ concept, where

several smaller units (5KVA for example) replace

a larger single 20KVA unit, is a worthy and

practicable consideration where circumstances suit

No fuses are used in the system. All fault devices

are miniature circuit breakers. This gives easy

correction of overload tripping without the need

to search for replacement fuses. An alarm is raised

if ANY circuit breaker trips. This scheme can be

extended to remote distribution boards if

required

Equipment is designed solely for emergency

lighting, and is not modified as a secondary

consideration. This gives the customer peace

of mind that the equipment is suitable for this

important task

On request special systems can be supplied part

populated for expansion later, reducing initial

capital cost
