Automatic cathodic protection transformer rectifiers Don of the UKZT-AU-OPE N1 series, with high energy efficiency, equipped with a control and telemetry controller, are manufactured according to TU 3415-003-27191815-2014 and are designed to protect underground metal structures (pipelines) from electrochemical corrosion using the cathodic polarization method, including in areas affected by stray currents. The CP rectifiers of this modification have extended functional capabilities due to the use of the digital controller "KATRON-SKZ" as a control unit in the basic configuration, which implements the functions of automatic operating modes, a system of protection against overloads, overvoltage and carries out automatic switching of operating modes in accordance with changes that arise in the operation of the cathodic protection system. The control unit provides the ability to install a GSM/GPRS communication module or a serial port interface module for connecting the CP TR to some telemetry systems. In the cathodic protection rectifiers of this modification, the principles of compatibility of switching connections, element base, main blocks and design units with the oldes modifications of the Don family of cathodic protection rectifiers are traditionally observed, which ensures a high degree of maintainability and practically unlimited possibilities for expanding the functionality of the devices. In addition to the basic equipment, these rectifiers can be supplied in various configurations for personal requirements. The serial nominal power range of produced CP TRs: 0.3; 0.6; 1.2; 2.0; 3.0 and 5.0 kW.
Regulatory compliance
The rectifiers comply with the requirements of GOST 9.602-2016 and GOST R 51164-98 (for "KF" configurations); EAEU Declaration of the compliance with the requirements of the technical regulations of the Customs Union "On the safety of low-voltage equipment" (TR CU 004/2011) "Electromagnetic compatibility of technical equipment" (TR CU 020/2011) Certificate of VCS "Gazcert" (configuration "KF")
Work modes (basic functions)
— manual setting of voltage and current values on the CP TR output without automatic maintenance; — automatic maintenance of a given value of protective potential on a structure; — automatic maintenance of a given value of output (protective) current; — automatic transition to the output current stabilization mode of the CP TR in the event of a break in the measuring circuit of the protective potential, with the magnitude of the stabilized current will be provide the required value of the protective potential; — automatic limitation of the CP TR output current no more than 1.1 Inom. — operation in doubling output voltage mode (switching to double voltage mode is done manually, by switching the secondary windings of the power transformer. For this mode accordable value of the output current is no more than 0,5 Inom).
Configuration options
Basic package: — Controller "KATRON-SKZ"; — Electricity meter with CAN/RS-485 interface (can be excluded from the delivery set when ordering); — A set of flexible connecting cables for connecting the power supply network and load connections inside the pedestal; — Self-healed module "BARIER KATRON" for protection of measurement and power supply circuits of the controller "KATRON-SKZ". "KF" package (certificate VCS "GAZCERT"): — Basic package + integrated smoothing filter FPP-1 for CP TR with a nominal power of up to 3.0 kW inclusive (for CP TR with a nominal power of 5.0 kW, the FPP-1 filter is supplied as an external unit installed under the cabinet base of the CP TR). "K-AG" package (can be added to any package option): — + integrated AG-1 acoustic repellent generator for protection against rodents and wasps. "K-OM" package (can be added to any package option): — + integrated power consumption limiter. "ACB" package (can be added to any package option): — budget package. The control unit is an analog electronic board type "A", implementing the functions of control and automatic maintenance of operating parameters. The "BARRIER KATRON" self-healed module for protecting of the control unit and the controller "KATRON-SKZ" are excluded from the delivery set. The functions of automatic switching of operating modes will be not available. Fuses are used to protect the output circuits from short circuits and overloads.
"K-CS" package: — an individual version of the delivery set, determined by the Customer, for the required tasks.
CP TR's design
— CP TR's cabinet made of 2 mm steel, painted with polymer powder paint, with two vandal-proof locking devices; — The CP TR's cabinet is equipped with folding handles for easy transportation; — the cabinet is equipped by rotating chassis, universal design, common to all modifications of the CP TRs, on which all the main elements are located (power transformer, choke, controls and electronics).
Advantages
— unique ergonomic block-type design, providing maximum ease of maintenance and the possibility of expansion through the use of interchangeable blocks and expansion modules; — intuitive and informative control panel; — unpretentiousness and reliability in operation; — reliable combined protection against overvoltage and overload; — intelligent control algorithm (not for "ACB" package); — simplicity of technical solutions and high maintainability; — high energy efficiency across the entire range of operating parameters; — accessible element base; — compact dimensions and light weight.
