Product Overview
Designed specifically for restricted space installations, these 48Vdc power distribution systems
incorporate the HP (High Performance) series of 48V 1.2kW Cordex rectifier modules.
Complete front access design, allowing for all customer connections in front of the rack channel.
Cordex rectifier modules use a high frequency, switched mode conversion technique to provide a fully
regulated and isolated DC output from the AC mains. The rectifier model input is universal to allow use
on 120/208/220/240Vac 50/60Hz electrical service.
Rectifier power modules are hot swappablethey can be inserted or removed from the shelf without
cutting power to or from the system or the load.
Additional power modules can be included with the system at the time of ordering or added after the
shelf has been installed.
The shelves are designed for horizontal mounting in a 19" or 23" center mount installation via universal
mounting brackets (EIA rack spacing) and utilize dual IEC-type connectors for multiple AC line cord
solutions.
The Alpha Cordex CXCM1 was designed as a modular CXC controller for the rectifier series. Details
for installation and wiring are provided in the respective chapters of this documentation package.
All models of the CXC allow the user to set up, control and monitor the entire power system and
ancillary components from one central, easy-to-use source: your web browser. The CXCM1 model
does not have a touch screen display; therefore, system setup and management is performed
exclusively with the web interface. Details of controller operation are provided in the current version
software manual.
The equipment is suitable for installation in Network Telecommunication Facilities.
The distribution component uses up to four bullet-type breakers and up to ten GMT fuse positions. The
distribution module also allows for termination of two battery strings and includes a 125A battery shunt.

Features
2.1
Rectifier modules
The Cordex CXRF-HP series of 48V 1.2kW rectifier modules employ an advanced resonant power
conversion technology featuring high power conversion efficiency. All internal semiconductor devices
operate under soft-switching conditions and exhibit very low power loss. The reduced power loss leads to
lower thermal stress on the semiconductors and thus improves reliability.
Sustaining low component temperatures is again the primary factor with meeting the three worst-case field
scenarios: (1) 65C ambient temperatures, (2) full output power, and (3) low AC input (176Vac). While
meeting these specifications, Cordex rectifiers also offer roughly twice the reliability at 55C and up to four
times more at 45C ambient temperature.
2.1.1
Rectifier Front Panel
Figure 4 rectifier front panel

2.1.2
LEDs
The front panel LEDs provide rectifier status summary and help to locate a specific module under CXC
control.
AC
The top LED (green) is on when AC is within valid range and the rectifier is delivering power to the load.
The LED will flash (~2Hz) when AC is outside the nominal range AC voltage is invalid if the AC Mains
Low or AC Mains High alarm is active. The LED turns off when AC has failed (or no AC power is
present).
DC
The middle LED (green) is on when the rectifier is delivering power to the load. The LED will flash when
communication is lost. The LED turns off when the rectifier is off; e.g., when commanded via the CXC.
Alarm
The bottom LED (red) is on continuously in the event of an active Module Fail alarm. The LED flashes
(~2Hz) when a minor alarm is detected. The LED remains off in the absence of an alarm. If the unit output
is not connected to a battery or parallel rectifier, the LED extinguishes if no AC power is present.
LED Activity During Locate Module Command from CXC
When the locate module command has been received from the CXC, the LEDs behave in a distinctly
different way so that the rectifier is easier to visually identify among adjacent rectifiers.
This state is entered when commanded via the CXC. The LEDs flash in a distinct pattern repeating every
two seconds.
030-834-J0 Rev F
Page 9 of 38

LED Activity During Firmware Upload
When a rectifier firmware upload is in progress, the LEDs behave in the same way as the locate module
command described above.
2.1.3
Mechanical
A locking clip automatically secures the rectifier into the shelf.
2.1.4
True Module Fail Alarm

The power modules have a true fail alarm. This provides a true indication of the power modules ability to
source current. When the modules output current drops below 2.5% of the rated output a low output current
condition is detected and the Module Fail detection circuit is activated. This circuit momentarily ramps up
the output voltage to determine if the module will source current. If no increase in current is detected, the
Module Fail alarm is activated. The module will test once every 60 seconds for the condition until current is
1
detected. Output voltage ramping will cease upon detection of current . A minimum 2.5% load is required
to avoid the Ramp Test Fail alarm; this can typically be provided with the parallel system battery. Activation
of this alarm could indicate a failed module or a failed load.
TP
PT
NOTE: For Cordex rectifier systems without batteries (or with a very light load; below 2.5% of rated output) it is
recommended that the ramp test be disabled to avoid nuisance alarms. The Ramp Test feature is
enabled/disabled via the CXC menu item: Rectifiers, Configure Settings.
2.1.5
Heat Dissipation
Cooling of the module is front-to-rear with the exhaust air exiting at the back. The fan is variable speed;
which is determined by heatsink temperature and load.
2.1.6
Over Temperature Protection

Each rectifier module is protected in the event of an excessive increase in temperature due to component
failure or cooling airflow blockage. During over temperature conditions, the rectifier limits the output power
as well as the output current. If temperature continues to increase, a shutdown of the rectifier is initiated.
The rectifier shall restart automatically if the temperature has returned to a safe level.
2.1.7
Wide AC Range
A minor alarm is generated when the AC input voltage drops below specification.
2.1.8
Output power is reduced linearly between 176Vac and 132Vac to 60% of the rated output power.
Input current is limited to less than 6A for operation from 132Vac to 90Vac. Power is derated linearly
between 132Vac (~700W) to 90Vac (~475W).
At a lower voltage the module will shut down and will not restart until the AC is greater than 90Vac.
For voltages above 277Vac, power factor and total harmonic distortion may be derated. Up to 320Vac,
the rectifier may not be operational but shall not suffer any damage.
AC Inrush/Transient Suppression
An external surge suppressor is not required at the AC input, modules are protected from input lightning
and transient surges in accordance with IEEE/ANSI C62.41 Category B3
2.1.9
Soft Start
To eliminate an instantaneous demand on the AC source, a soft start feature is employed. Soft Start,
sometimes referred to as current walk-in, works by gradually (up to five seconds) ramping the current limit
up from zero to the actual or defined customer setting. The rectifier output voltage is ramped up from the
minimum voltage to the float voltage.
1 Under normal conditions, a battery connected to the output of the rectifier will draw current when the voltage ramp occurs. Therefore the rectifier fail
alarm will not be generated with a battery connected.
TP
PT
030-834-J0 Rev F
Page 10 of 38

2.1.10
Start Delay
The rectifier modules are equipped with a delay timer in order to stagger start a series of modules to
prevent excessive loading of generators upon start up. The built-in timer delays the turn on of the module
depending on the value selected (up to 120 seconds) via the CXC. A minimum one-second delay is preset
to allow charging of the input capacitors.
2.1.11
Current Limit/Short Circuit Protection

The current limit function determines the maximum output current limit of the rectifier module, regardless of
output voltage or power. Maximum output current is limited to a constant value down to short circuit
condition. Current limiting can be used to mate the rectifier output current ampacity to the needs of the load
and parallel battery to minimize excessive battery recharge current.
The rectifier will sustain a short circuit at the output terminals indefinitely. The maximum short circuit current
cannot exceed 105% of the rated full load current.
2.1.12
Power Limiting
Each rectifier module is designed to limit power output to the module specification. This enables more
current to be supplied at lower output voltages, and allows matching of output to the demand of constant
power loads, normally seen with telecom equipment.
This feature may also be used for a faster recharge of flooded batteries paralleled with the load.
NOTE: Current limiting overrides the power-limiting feature.

2.1.13
High Voltage Shutdown (HVSD)

This feature provides protection to the load from over voltage conditions originating from the rectifiers. It
operates by shutting down the offending rectifier module when a high output voltage condition occurs.
Indication is through the red Alarm (Module Fail) LED. Modules will restart automatically; however, if more
than three over voltage conditions occur in one minute, the module will latch off and remain shut down until
it is reset.
2.1.14
Battery Eliminator Operation

Rectifier modules maintain all specifications (except where indicated) with or without a battery attached in
parallel to the output; however, if a battery or another module supplying DC voltage in parallel is not
present, there will be no monitoring or control activity if there is an AC power failure or input fuse failure.
2.2
Distribution Module
030-834-20 (Cordex CXRF-HP 48-1.2kW center mounting 2RU shelf for systems up to 4800W)

Installation
NOTE: This power system is suitable for installation in Network Telecommunication Facility locations where the
NEC applies, and in OSP applications.
This chapter is provided for qualified personnel to install the product. Mount the unit horizontally in a clean
and dry environment.
NOTE: Drawings are located at the rear of the manual.
This system is designed to be installed in a restricted access location inaccessible to the general public.
4.1
Safety Precautions
WARNING
Hazardous voltages are present at the input of power systems. The DC output from the rectifiers
and battery system, though not dangerous in voltage, has a high short circuit current capacity that
may cause severe burns and electrical arcing.
Before working with any live battery or power system/distribution center, follow these precautions:
Remove all metallic jewelry; e.g., watches, rings, metal rimmed glasses, necklaces.
Wear safety glasses with side shields (and prescription lenses if necessary) at all times during
installation.
Use OSHA approved insulated hand tools.
The installer should follow all applicable local rules and regulations for electrical and battery installations;
e.g., CSA, UL, CEC, NEC, OSHA, and local fire codes.
4.2
Shelf Preparation/Mounting
NOTE: The shelf is designed for horizontal mounting in a clean and dry environment. Allow at least 1.75" of free
space in front of the unit for unrestricted cooling airflow.
Each shelf has been designed for center mounting in a 19" or 23" rack. See drawings 030-834-06, 030-83506, 030-845-06, or 030-851-06.
Mounting brackets accommodate either 1" or 1" rack spacing. Mount the shelf to the rack using at least
two #12 24 x " screws in each bracket. Use Philips-type screws and screwdriver to eliminate the
possibility of slippage and scratching of the units exterior.
An electrical conducting path must exist between the units chassis and the metalwork of the enclosure in
which it is mounted or a grounding conductor. The electrical continuity requirement can be met by the use
of thread-forming type unit mounting screws and star washers that remove any paint or nonconductive
coatings and establish metal-to-metal contact.
030-834-J0 Rev F

4.3
Module Insertion/Removal CXRF and CXCM1

The rectifier is plug and play. When a rectifier module is added to the system, the CXC will detect and
update the inventory automatically. Replacing an installed rectifier requires a manual Inventory Update at

5.5
Calculating Output Wire Size Requirements

Wire size is calculated by first determining the appropriate maximum voltage drop requirement. Using the
formula below calculate the CMA wire size requirement. Determine the size and number of conductors
required to satisfy the CMA requirement.
CMA = (A x LF x K) / AVD, where:
CMA = Cross section of wire in circular MIL area
A = Ultimate drain in amps
LF = Conductor loop feet
K = 11.1 constant factor for commercial (TW type) copper wire
AVD = Allowable voltage drop
Check again that the ampacity rating of the cable meets the requirement for the installation application.
Consult local electrical codes (NEC, CEC, etc.) for guidelines. If required, increase the size of the cable to
meet the code.

5.10
Network Connection and Remote Communications via CXCM1

The Cordex system can be set up, monitored and tested via modem or ETHERNET 10/100 Base-T serial
data connection. The communication protocol supports a web interface. Some standard scenarios are
described in the following sections.
5.10.1
Modem Port
The Modem port is designed for CXCM1 connection to the Alpha Cordex DC Modem (p/n 018-585-20a) via
a front panel DB-9 connector.

CAUTION: Use only the Alpha modem and Alpha-supplied DB-9 (straight through) cable to connect
to the D-sub port on the front of the CXCM1.
5.10.2
Ethernet Port for Network Connection (Standard Network Cable)

The Ethernet port is designed for CXCM1 connection to a user supplied network (TCP/IP secured by user)
via a front panel RJ-45 jack.
Connect to the CXCM1 using a standard network cable. Pinouts are shown in drawing 030-834-08.
5.10.3
Ethernet Port for Local Connection (Crossover Cable)

Local access (e.g. laptop computer) is also possible from the Ethernet port connection using a standard
network crossover cable.
5.11
Signal Wiring Connections

2
For terminal block connections, the recommended wire sizes are #16 to #26 AWG (1.5 to 0.129mm ) for
the temperature range of 0 to 50C (as per UL/CSA). Control and sense wires shall be UL approved Style
1015 (for Canadian users, TEW type).
P
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use only #26 AWG (0.129mm ) or thicker wire.
P
Bundle the signal cables together and route them through the entry holes of the shelf.
Figure 14Signal Wiring Terminal Blocks

5.11.1
Analog Inputs for CXCM1

CAUTION: Ensure the correct polarity is used for all input cable terminations.
The analog input channels are used to monitor various types of electrical signals.
Voltage (Input) is 0 to 60Vdc. Temp Probe is 0 to 20Vdc with power source.
030-834-J0 Rev F
Page 27 of 38

Voltage
Voltage Input #1 (load voltage per CXC software) terminals on the shelf provide connections to an optional
secondary voltage input. For example, this can be terminated to the load side of an LVD contactor to
monitor load voltage.
Voltage Input #2 (battery voltage per CXC software) is wired internally to the rectifier output voltage of the
shelf. This is used as the reference for system alarming (such as high voltage) and control (such as LVD).
The Battery -48V should be connected at the battery system voltage terminal for CXCM1 reference when a
battery disconnect device is used. It is critical to CXCM1 operation as it ensures a source of power to the
CXCM1 should the disconnect device open the circuit.
Current
Current input #1 is wired internally to the system current shunt.
Temperature Sensor
Temperature Probe input channels provide connections for up to two temperature sensors. A voltage is
supplied to these terminals for sensor measurements.
5.11.2
Digital Inputs for CXCM1

The digital input channels (factory-installed) are used to monitor various alarm and control signals. All input
channels are voltage activated and accept a bipolar (i.e. negative or positive) DC signal directly.
D1 is wired internally for CB/fuse trip. D2 is available for customer connections as required.
Connection Method
Typical Alpha systems use the reset with Hot and trigger with Ground connection. The digital input is
wired in such a way that the Hot is wired directly into one of the input terminals; e.g., negative input for -48V
systems. The other input terminal is wired to the Ground (common) of the system through a relay (dry
contact usually located on the equipment requiring monitoring). This method (see Figure 15) allows the
digital input to receive (or not receive) a Ground signal on an alarm.
Figure 15Showing digital input connection method

Programming the Digital Input
The digital input channels can be programmed for active high or active low. Active high indicates alarm
on the presence of a ground signal and active low indicates alarm on the removal of a ground signal. See
CXC Software manual for detailed instruction on programming.

5.11.3
Alarm (Relay) Outputs

Terminals provide contacts for extending various alarm or control signals. Each relay output can be wired
for NO or NC operation during an alarm or control condition. See Figure 16.
Figure 16Showing relay connections

Relays can be programmed to energize or de-energize during an alarm condition (see CXC Software
manual). When the CXCM1 reset button is pressed or power is lost, all relays de-energize.
These relays could be used for additional external LVD contactor control; however, this would not provide
the redundant LVD control as with the assigned output pins described below.
5.11.4
LVD Control (Load Disconnect or Battery Disconnect) Option

The disconnect option is controlled by and connected internally to relay K1.
LVD Inhibit
Should it be necessary to remove the CXCM1, the customer connection board (on the front of the shelf)
provides shorting pins (JP2) to inhibit (or override) the LVD Control function. See drawing 030-834-08 next
to TB11, pin 22, of the customer connections.
If the LVD is controlled on NC contacts (factory default for LVD option), then JP2 pins 1 and 2 must be
shorted together to maintain LVD operation. If the LVD is controlled on NO contacts, then pins 2 and 3 must
be shorted together. For normal operation, the factory-supplied shorting jumper should be left on pins 3 and
4.
5.11.5
LVD Control Alternative

The LVD Control functions can be hardwired directly from an alarm output relay to an external LVD
contactor (or panel). See Controls Menu Defaults in the CXC Software manual.
030-834-J0 Rev F

Operation
6.1
Main Rectifier States

Rectifier operation has five main states; each state is distinct and necessary for the operation of the
rectifier.
6.1.1
Off
Start delay
Soft start
Normal operation
Turning off
Off
The rectifier is in the Off state immediately after power is applied to the rectifier or after a rectifier shutdown
(remote or local shutdown, AC shutdown, OVP or thermal shutdown).
In this state the DC-DC converter is turned off and the CXC monitors its inputs for the proper conditions to
begin the start up sequence.
When the conditions have been met for the rectifier to start up, it transitions to the Start Delay state.
6.1.2
Start Delay
When the rectifier is in the Start Delay state, the DC-DC converter is held off and still not sourcing power,
waiting for a given amount of time before transitioning to the next state.
The CXC continues to monitor its inputs.
After the Start Delay state the rectifier transitions to the Soft Start state.
NOTE: Soft start, or current walk-in, gradually increases the voltage and current output of the rectifier upon startup.
This is done to reduce the instantaneous load on the AC source.
6.1.3
Soft Start
When the Soft Start state is entered, the rectifier is turned on and the output voltage and output current
gradually increased. If a load is present, the rectifier begins to source power.
When the voltage and current limit ramps have finished, the rectifier will transition to the Normal Operation
state.
6.1.4
Normal Operation
The Normal Operation state is the state that the rectifier will be in performing all of the rectifier functions
and features specified herein.
From this state, the only valid transition is to the Turning Off state. This transition will happen if the rectifier
is required to shut down.
6.1.5
Turning Off
The Turning Off state is entered because a short delay is required before the rectifier actually turns off to
take care of any initialization requirements.
When this short delay has elapsed, a transition to the Off state is made.
030-834-J0 Rev F
Page 30 of 38

6.2
Main Rectifier Modes

In addition to main rectifier states, there is a set of main rectifier modes. These modes are divided into two
categories:
6.2.1
Output Voltage Modes

Voltage modes, under software control, can directly adjust the output voltage. Situations, such as the
rectifier being in current limit, can change the output voltage with no software control.
The following table describes the five output voltage modes.
6.2.2
Output Voltage Modes
Active when
Float
Output voltage is set to the float voltage setting.
Equalize
Output voltage is set to the equalize voltage setting.
Battery Test
Output voltage is set to the battery test voltage setting.
Safe
Output voltage is set to the safe mode voltage setting.
Manual Test
Output voltage can be manually adjusted outside of the standard adjustment

ranges.
Table 3.Output voltage modes
Output Current/Power Modes

These four output current/power modes directly affect the output current and power:
Output Current/Power Mode
Output current and power limit have been reduced due to:
Temperature foldback mode
High temperature of the heatsink or internal ambient temperature sensor.
AC foldback mode
Low AC input voltage.
Short circuit foldback mode
Note: reduces the risk of tripping an AC breaker due to increased AC

current draw as the AC voltage decreases.
Short circuit at the output.
Internal fault foldback mode
Internal fault.

Can Bus Communications

The CAN bus is used for commands and data transfer between the rectifier and CXC to configure the
rectifier with system settings and to monitor rectifier status.

test with the system using a resistive load box as needed.
CXCM1 Alarm Configuration for Nominal 120Vac Operation

The default setting for low AC voltage alarming is 180Vac. For nominal 120Vac operation, it is
recommended to reset this value to 100Vac.
To reconfigure this alarm parameter, go to Alarms > Configure Alarms. Under Alarm Configuration,
select Voltage Alarms. Select and modify the activation value for AC Mains Low to 100Vac. Submit
changes to save the new configuration.
7.4
CXC Reset
7.4.1
Soft Reset
The reset button located on the front panel of the CXCM1 is for restarting the microprocessor. When
pressed momentarily, the unit beeps twice then resets. The front-panel LEDs illuminate temporarily, and
then extinguish after the system has finished its 15-second self-test.
7.4.2
IP Address Reset
To reset the IP address, press and hold the front panel reset button for three seconds. The CXCM1 unit
beeps three times, IP address resets to 10.10.10.201 and DHCP is disabled. The settings are saved and
the unit then resets.
This reset allows local access; e.g., with a laptop and a standard network crossover cable. See current
version software manual for details.
7.4.3
Hard Reset
A hard reset of the CXCM1 can be performed by unplugging the module. This procedure will restart the
microprocessor if the front panel (soft) reset button fails to operate.

Warranty
Alpha Technologies Ltd. warrants all equipment manufactured by it to be free from defects in parts and
labor, for a period of two years from the date of shipment from the factory. The warranty provides for
repairing, replacing or issuing credit (at Alphas discretion) for any equipment manufactured by it and
returned by the customer to the factory or other authorized location during the warranty period. There are
limitations to this warranty coverage. The warranty does not provide to the customer or other parties any
remedies other than the above. It does not provide coverage for any loss of profits, loss of use, costs for
removal or installation of defective equipment, damages or consequential damages based upon equipment
failure during or after the warranty period. No other obligations are expressed or implied. Warranty also
does not cover damage or equipment failure due to cause(s) external to the unit including, but not limited
to, environmental conditions, water damage, power surges or any other external influence.
The customer is responsible for all shipping and handling charges. Where products are covered under
warranty Alpha will pay the cost of shipping the repaired or replacement unit back to the customer.
9.3
Battery Warranty
Note that battery warranty terms and conditions vary by battery and by intended use. The most common
battery warranty provided by Alpha is a two year full replacement warranty with a pro-rated warranty for the
following three years. Pro rated warranty provides a credit applicable toward the purchase of new batteries
from Alpha. The credit is calculated as the purchase price multiplied by the percentage of the battery life
that was not available (in months). Battery warranty coverage is lost where the battery charge is not
maintained for 6 months. Contact your Alpha sales representative or the Technical Support team at the
above number to understand your entitlements under Battery Warranty.
9.4
Return of Material
Please contact Technical Support at the number above to obtain a Service Repair Order (or Return Material
Authorization) number BEFORE sending material back. This will ensure that your service needs are
handled promptly and efficiently.

CSA/NRTL MARKS BACKGROUND

What are the CSA and NRTL?
CSA (Canadian Standards Association also known as CSA International) was established in 1919 as
an independent testing laboratory in Canada. CSA received its recognition as an NRTL (Nationally
Recognized Testing Laboratory) in 1992 from OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) in
the United States of America (Docket No. NRTL-2-92). This was expanded and renewed in 1997, 1999,
and 2001. The specific notifications were posted on OSHAs official website as follows:

Federal Register #: 59:40602 - 40609 [08/09/1994]

The product on which either of these marks appear

has been certified by CSA as meeting applicable
Canada/US standards.
When these marks appear with the indicator C and US or NRTL/C it means that the product is
certified for both the US and Canadian markets, to the applicable US and Canadian standards. (1)
Alpha rectifier and power system products, bearing the aforementioned CSA marks, are
certified to CSA C22.2 No. 60950 and UL 60950.
Alpha UPS products, bearing the aforementioned CSA marks, are certified to CSA C22.2
No.107.3 and UL 1778.
As part of the reciprocal, US/Canada agreement regarding testing laboratories, the Standards Council
of Canada (Canadas national accreditation body) granted Underwriters Laboratories (UL) authority to
certify products for sale in Canada. (2)
The product on which this mark

appears has been certified by UL
as meeting applicable Canada/US
standards.
Only Underwriters Laboratories may grant a licence for the use of this mark, which indicates compliance
with both Canadian and US requirements. (3)
What are NRTLs and what do they do?
NRTLs are third party organizations recognized by OSHA, US Department of Labor, under the NRTL
program.
The testing and certifications are based on product safety standards developed by US based standards
developing organizations and are often issued by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). (4)
The NRTL determines that a product meets the requirements of an appropriate consensus-based
product safety standard either by successfully testing the product itself, or by verifying that a contract
laboratory has done so, and the NRTL certifies that the product meets the requirements of the product
safety standard. (4)
When was the NRTL started and who governs it?
In 1983, in a suit brought on by an independent testing laboratory, OSHA was court ordered to remove
specific references to UL (Underwriters Laboratories) and FMRC (Factory Mutual Research Corporation)
from its regulations.
In 1988, OSHA revised its regulations to remove those references and the NRTL program was
established.
The NRTL Program is both national and international in scope with foreign labs permitted.
