Land-based Power Feed Equipment

Spellman High Voltage Electronics, the leading independent supplier of Power Feed Equipment to the Telecom industry, has developed a new generation of Low Voltage Power Feed Equipment, (PFE-LV). This proposed new PFE-LV is targeted at the emerging requirements for shorter submarine cable installations, while addressing underlying markets issues such as lower cost, smaller foot print, and easier operation.

Key features:

Redundancy is provided for the converters (1+1)
Simplified sliding drawers for PFE open, grounding, test modes
Redundancy is provided for the LCU. In case of failure of LCU, the PFE will continue to operate normally
LCU contains pull-out 17. LCD screen, keyboard, trackball and CPU
Simplified keylock scheme ensures safety of operating personnel
Highly visible Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) on each Converter displays voltage, current and modes of operation
Unique protective “trap door” barrier allows a converter or test load to be replaced safely while the PFE is still powering the cable
