Abstract
Various systems are provided for a power supply system. In one example, the system includes a power distribution unit configured to receive power from a main power source and an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), wherein the UPS is configured to directly power an output AC load, the UPS is further configured to power an output DC load after coupled through one or more transformers.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a power distribution unit configured to receive power from a main power source and an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), wherein the UPS is configured to directly power an output AC load, the UPS is further configured to power an output DC load after coupled through one or more transformers.
A medical imaging system, comprising:
- a gantry coupled to an output DC load;
- a power cabinet coupled to an output AC load;
- a power distribution unit (PDU) comprising a primary transformer, a first secondary transformer, and a second secondary transformer;
- wherein the power distribution unit is configured to receive power from one of a main power source and an uninterruptible power supply (UPS);
- and
- a controller with computer readable instructions stored on memory thereof that cause the controller to:
- adjust a position of an input power switch and a forward switch to an open position in response to power from the main power source being unavailable;
- and
- adjust a position of a reverse switch to couple power form the UPS to the output AC load and the output DC load.
A method for a computer-tomography (CT) system, the method executed via instructions stored on memory of a controller, the method, comprising:
- in response to a main power source being unavailable;
- powering an output AC load directly via an uninterruptible power supply (UPS);
- and
- powering an output DC load via power coupled from the UPS to a second secondary transformer, to a primary transformer, to a first secondary transformer, and through a rectifier.
