Introduction
The Allen-Bradley Bulletin 1608P HC-DySC Dynamic Sag Corrector is
engineered to provide years of trouble-free voltage sag (dip) protection. The
patented DySC technology does not use batteries, requires only routine
maintenance, includes three-stage transient voltage, surge suppression, and has
unparalleled energy efficiency. Most electronic devices that are found in industry
today are susceptible to power disturbances. Momentary sags in line voltage can
reset or damage sensitive production equipment. The HC-DySC provides
instantaneous and dynamic sag correction to help your equipment ride through
these common events. The HC-DySC connects normal utility power directly to
the load until a voltage sag occurs. During a sag event, the HC-DySC inverter is
activated-adding missing voltage to keep the load voltage within the normal
range. When utility power returns to normal, the inverter is deactivated and the
HC-DySC is quickly ready to correct the next sag.
The HC-DySC reports these voltage sag events through its integrated touch
screen display. It provides system status, voltage sag notification and history,
runtime statistics and system history in a simple and intuitive touch-based user
interface.
Safety Considerations The HC-DySC is designed to operate in industrial applications. Follow these
guidelines to help ensure that the safety and installation of the HC-DySC are
handled with appropriate care.
WARNING: HC-DySC products help protect diagnostic imaging equipment and
facilities support systems against voltage sags and momentary power
interruptions. HC-DySC products can not be used to protect life-critical patient
care equipment.
SHOCK HAZARD: The HC-DySC has high voltage present up to 5 minutes after
disconnection from the AC line. If the exposed or disconnected terminals,
cables, or parts of the HC-DySC are touched it can lead to serious injuries or
even death. Wait for a minimum of 5 minutes before performing any service or
test on the HC-DySC after power is removed. High voltage remains if red status
indicators above capacitor banks are lighted. Keep the cabinet doors closed and
locked to help ensure proper cooling airflow and to help protect personnel from
dangerous voltages inside the HC-DySC.
