High Voltage Power Feed Equipment (PFE)

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

Key features:

Redundancy is provided for the converters (n+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, mouse pad and CPU
Simplified keylock scheme ensures safety of operating personnel
Highly visible Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) on the output module (OMU) and each converter displays voltage, current and modes of operation
Unique protective “trap door” barrier allows a converter to be replaced safely while the PFE is still powering the cable
