GAUS FORMATION SYSTEM GFS540A300V
GFS540A300V is unit for container formation of 12V lead-acid batteries (or others) in branches with 15 batteries connected in chain, with controlled current from thyristor-diode bridge. This powerful unit is designed for battery plants or big service stations. GFS540A300V has capacity of simultaneous formation of 810 (eight hundred) 12V batteries Cn<100Ah, or 405 batteries with 100Ah
Battery Plant in Sombor “Black Horse” has 6 of those units installed since 1989.
Description
GFS540A300V has three parts: energy cabinet, cabinet with command tables and operating platform. Three-phase power transformer (200kVA) with air cooling, main switch with current and under voltage protection, fuses and energy installation, switches for galvanic separation and selecting of modules, nine inducers and nine removable modules with thyristor-diode bridges, shunts and corresponding electronics are in energy cabinet. Those modules are identical (replaceable) and independent in separate boxes with appropriate contact parts for connection with main cabinet. Each module can regulate current between 0-60ADC with maximum output voltage of 300VDC (15 batteries in chain). Dimensions of energy cabinet are aprox. (WxHxD) 3000mm x 2500mm x 2000mm. On command tables fixed in command cabinet (each energetic module has it’s own command table) You can select active branches for charging (from 1 to 6 branches simultaneously in parallel), start/stop forming, current per module (this current is divided in command table on active branches). Command tables has analogue ampermeters with shunts for each branch, voltmeters and indication of status. Branch cables are connected in command cabinet. Dimensions of command cabinet are aprox. (WxHxD) 3000mm x 2000mm x 1000mm. Operating platform is fixed between energy and command cabinet. It provides operator to control and setting the forming. Dimensions of platform are aprox. (WxHxD) 3000mm x 300mm x 1500mm. All connections between command and energy cabinet are fixed under operating platform.
Example: If all 9 modules are active with current of 33A and for each module all 6 branches with 15 batteries.
Current/branch is 33A/6 branches = 5.5A per branch (55Ah/10=Cn/10)
Forming current is 9x33A=297A
Number of batteries is 9 modules x 6 branches/module x 15 batteries nominal capacity 55Ah/branch = 810 batteries of Cn=55Ah.
Charging current per battery = current per branch = 5.5A (If=Cn/10).

FINAL PRODUCTION TEST SYSTEM
GAUS FINAL CONTROL SYSTEM GFCS1500A12V
The task of GFCS
The reliability of a starter battery is the most important quality feature. So, such batteries are subject to an electrical load test after container formation. It is also essential that during this test the energy discharged from the batteries must be minimized in order to avoid an additional charge.
The concept of the GFCS results from these initial conditions. Immediately after formation and, preferably, after cleaning the battery is discharged with a high current for a few seconds and the voltage under load is determined. The actual value is compared with the nominal one resulting in a “good-faulty” decision. A reasonable test sequence covering 6 to 8 batteries per minute requires fast and precise power and data acquisition electronics combined with mechanics of the same accuracy and reliability for transport and positioning of the batteries as well as for positioning the test heads to the terminals.
Such properties are combined in the GFCS.
Construction
The Final Control System is composed of three units:
Mechanical part (conveyor/reject table, positioning device, test head for different battery types, control elements for conveyor)
Load unit (transistorised power unit and PLC as programmable control unit)
Computer (AT type host computer…)
Technical data:
Discharge current 0-1500A
Voltage 6-16V
Capacity 6-8 batteries per minute
Types of batteries 36-300Ah/12V
