2 Introduction
2.1. General Information
DC Power Plants from APC have unique features that make them easy to install, maintain, and
upgrade. The rectifier units are modular and truly “hot-pluggable” into the shelf assembly
without any separate AC wiring. The MX06 50 has 1 shelf, holding five rectifiers for a maximum
of 52.5 Amps. The MX06 100 has 2 shelves, holding ten rectifiers for a maximum of 105 Amps.
The controller provides monitoring and control functions for each component of the system.
The APC MX06 is a modular stand-alone -48 Volts DC power plant. It is configurable in such a
manner that it will support most typical applications within the specified current ranges (10-100
Amperes) without special application engineering or assistance. DC output distribution is
included for circuit breakers or GMT style fuses or in the 100 Amp versions, a combination of
both. Available circuit breakers are 30 Amps or 60 Amps. GMT fuses can be 1/4 to15 Amps. A
low voltage disconnect (LVD) is provided to disconnect the battery after deep discharge. A 50
Amp power system is shown in Figure 2.1-1. A block diagram of a typical 100 Amp power
system with fuses is shown in Figure 2.1-2.
