DC Supply General

The nominal voltage of equipment ( U n) shall be selected from amongst the following values: 24 V, 28 V, 36 V, 48 V, 72 V, 96 V, 110 V The recommended values are the following: 24 V, 72 V, 110 V. These nominal voltage values are given only as standardizing values for the design of equipment. They should not be considered as the off load battery voltages since these are determined by the types of battery, the number of cells and the operating conditions. The supply may be derived from a vehicle battery. The battery may be charged from battery chargers, auxiliary inverters and motor-alternator or motor-generator sets with associated electronic regulations. The grouping of power supply nominal voltage ranges is allowed for equipment designed to be compliant with a wide input voltage range. In this case, the principle (for performance and power supply type test compliance) is to consider the most stringent values in the voltage range; it means that the minimum continuous voltage shall be 0,7 U n the lowest nominal power supply voltage and that the maximum continuous voltage shall be 1,25 U n the highest nominal power supply voltage (i.e. an equipment can be designed to be compliant with the nominal power supply voltages of 24 V up to 48 V; the minimum continuous voltage to consider is 0,7 × 24V and the maximum continuous voltages to consider (1,25 × 48) V). See Figure 2 for other example of “DC Power supply voltage range”. For thermal compliance and EMC tests, the most stringent values in the voltage range shall be considered. For DC voltage supply fluctuation tests, the most stringent values in the voltage range shall be considered (see Figure 3 for other example of “DC Power supply voltage fluctuation requirements”). For the interruption of voltage supply the equipment shall be validated for the minimum nominal power supply voltage for which he is designed for operation (i.e. for equipment designed to be

operated with minimum power supply voltages of 24 V, 48 V, 72 V or 110 V the interruption of voltage supply compliance test shall be performed at 24 V). The grouping is not relevant for vibration and shock tests.  All requirements requirements related to power supply (with possible exception for Subclause 5.1.1.4 5.1.1.4 and Subclause 5.1.3) shall be applied to all I/O ports referenced to the power supply line. 5.1.1.2

DC power supply range

Electronic equipment shall operate satisfactorily for all the values of the DC power supply voltage within the range defined in Table 4 measured at the terminals of the equipment, see also Figure 2. In case of variation of the power supply voltage from zero to the maximum (e.g. intervention of circuit breaker) the equipment shall neither fail, nor be the cause of failure of other equipment. The equipment shall restart in normal operating mode when the power supply voltage is within the continuous voltage range. Table 4 — Continuous Voltage range Nominal voltage U n

Temporary supply overvoltages shall be assumed to be generated with respect to the control system voltage supply return potential and to be present only as an increase to the level of the control system voltage, which shall be assumed to be present before and after the application of the overvoltage. Overvoltage of opposite polarity to the control c ontrol system voltage supply need not be considered. Overvoltage exceeding in duration or amplitude the specified voltage fluctuation shall be assumed to occur only in the case of a failure in the control system voltage supply. Voltage dips are mainly caused by faults in the DC distribution system, or by sudden large changes of load. In the case of combustion engines, see also 5.1.1.5. 5.1.1.4

Interruptions of voltage supply

Due to a short circuit on a DC supply distribution line and subsequent operation of fuse/circuit breakers, input voltage may reduce to 0 V for a short period. The classes of interruptions on supply voltage, are listed in Table 6: During a short interruption, the DC distribution system presents a “low impedance” (short circuit) condition due to the clearing of an overload or fault condition on the supply bus. This condition can cause reverse current (negative peak inrush current) from the load. Regarding interruptions interruptions on supply voltage, there are three classes of interruptio interruption: n:

S2

In case of voltage volt age interruptio interruption n up to 20 ms the equipment shall behave according to performance criterion A.

S3

For a voltage interruption longer than specified in Table 6, the behaviour of the equipment shall be agreed between the involved parties. This classification is valid for nominal voltage. The choice of class should be defined by the system integrator; unless otherwise specified, the requirements requireme nts of class S2 apply. Unless otherwise specified, the requirements for interruption of voltage supply apply to the power supply input ports only; the behaviour of the I/O ports, not functionally associated to the power supply of the equipment, but referenced to the same supply distribution line, shall be handled as described in the specification of the equipment. 5.1.1.5

Variations of voltage supply for rolling stock powered by combustion engine

 At start-up of combustion engines the voltage supply system shall be designed to guarantee the supply to the essential electronic equipment during the whole starting sequence. 5.1.1.6

DC ripple factor

The DC ripple voltage, and frequency, on a DC supply s upply is dependent on the type of power generator or converter that produces the controlled DC supply. The DC ripple normally consists of a small AC waveform superimposed on the DC supply once the generator or converter output has been rectified and filtered. In practise there are three common ways to produce a stable DC supply as follows: f ollows: •

 

rectified single phase AC (50 Hz or 60 Hz) that p produces roduces a DC ripple at at frequencies of 100 Hz and 120 Hz;



 

rectified 3 phase AC (50 Hz or 60 Hz) that p produces roduces a DC ripple at frequencies frequencies of 300 300 Hz and 360 Hz;



 

rectified inverter produced single phase AC (1 kHz and higher) that produces produces a DC ripple of twice the inverter switching frequency, i.e. 2 kHz and higher.

 A peak to peak ripple voltage that gives a DC ripple factor no greater than 5 % is shown in Table 7. The formula to calculate the DC ripple factor is given below where U max max is the maximum voltage peak at the nominal voltage (U n) and U m m inimum voltage peak at U n. min in is the minimum U

Equipment reliability

6.1.1

Predicted reliability

Failure rate data of components are published in several well-known reliability handbooks. Usually the data published are obtained from equipment in specific applications e.g. telephone exchanges. In some cases the source of the data are unspecified and is not principally obtained from field data. Due to this reason failure rate predictions often differ significantly from field observations and can often lead to false consequen c onsequences. ces. Failure rate predictions are based on the following assumptions (the list could be not fully comprehensive): •

 

The prediction model uses a simple simple reliability reliability series system of all components, in other other words, words, a failure of any component is assumed to lead to a system failure.



 

Component failure rates needed for the prediction predicti on are assumed to be constant for the time period considered.. This is known to be realistic for electronic components after burn-in. considered

Limitations of failure rate predictions are: a)

However reliability prediction methods can be useful at design stage to compare different designs in order to choose the design that probably will have the lowest failure rate. The user can require from the supplier a reliability prediction calculation. The user may require the manufacturer to predict his reliability figure or meet the user's reliability target. The method of calculation shall be agreed at the time of tendering between the manufacturer and the user, and shall be in accordance with a recognized standard. Failure rates used in the calculation can be either the failure rate from a supplier database or the failure rate from a well-known reliability handbo handbook. ok. The supplier shall provide to the user a reference mission profile and the information needed to understand and to verify calculations. The following list is an example of a reference mission profile: i)

Proof of reliability

The user may require the supplier to reach a target level for field reliability. Demonstrations which are required to establish whether one or more reliability characteristic of the equipment is better, or not, than a specified level, with some stated degree of confidence are conducted on a sample of the series of a given system or type of equipment. The pass/fail criteria for statistical tests are generally known as plans. Two styles of plans can be applied: •
