20110187331 | HYBRID ARCHITECTURE FOR DC POWER PLANTS WITH A CONTROLLER FOR PROVIDING REDUNDANT RECHARGE CAPABILITIES - Included herein is a DC power plant, a DC power system, a method charging a remote battery system and a battery charging controller. In one embodiment, the DC power plant includes: (1) a rectifier system including an AC power input and a DC power output, the rectifier system configured to receive an AC input voltage at the AC power input and produce a DC output voltage at the DC power output and (2) a controller configured to determine a permitted charging current for a remote battery system coupled to the rectifier system and dynamically adjust the DC output voltage to provide the permitted charging current for the remote battery system. | 08-04-2011 |
20110148207 | HYBRID ARCHITECTURE FOR DC POWER PLANTS AND A METHOD OF MINIMIZING BATTERY CONDUCTOR CURRENT - Included herein is a DC power plant, a DC power system and a method of reducing battery current. In one embodiment, the DC power plant includes: (1) a rectifier system including an AC power input and a DC power output, the rectifier system configured to receive an AC input voltage at the AC power input and produce a DC output voltage at the DC power output and (2) a controller configured to monitor a battery current associated with a battery distribution conductor coupled to the rectifier system for a remote battery system and dynamically adjust the DC output voltage to maintain the battery current at substantially zero amperes. | 06-23-2011 |
20100231170 | ADAPTIVE LOW VOLTAGE DISCONNECT CONTROLLER, METHOD OF PROTECTING A BATTERY AND A POWER SYSTEM MANAGER - Provided herein is a controller for a low voltage disconnect (LVD), a method of protecting and providing a maximum or substantially maximum battery reserve coupled to a DC load bus and a power system manager. In one embodiment, the LVD controller includes an adaptive disconnect system configured to determine a variable LVD threshold voltage value and instruct the LVD to disconnect a battery reserve from a DC load bus based thereon. The variable LVD threshold voltage is determined based on a current of the battery reserve during a battery-discharge event. | 09-16-2010 |
