10Text AnalysisLesson 2 Battery and Generator
- Para1 On handling machinery in many ports,
the electric energy needed by all electric
equipments is supplied by the battery and the
generator. The battery is a reversible chemical
power source, that is to say, it can change
chemical energy into electric energy and also it
can change electric energy into chemical energy. - Para2 Generally speaking, the function of battery
used on ICE in many ports is to supply electric
current for operation of the cranking motor and
the ignition system when the engine starts. It
also supplies current for light, horn, radio, and
other electrical accessories at times when the
generator can not handle the electrical load. The
amount of current of the battery is limited to
the capacity of the battery. The capacity of
battery depends on the amount of chemicals it
contains.
11- Para3The common types of batteries used on
handling machinery in port are wet- charged
battery, dry-charged battery, low maintenance
battery and maintenance-free battery. The
connecting mode among generator, battery and the
whole electrical equipments of the vehicle is
parallel connection (see Fig2-1).

13- Para5The port internal combustion engines use
both dc generator and ac generator. The dc
generator is driven by ICE. It can change the
mechanical energy into electric energy. During
its working time, it can not only supply electric
current to all the electric equipments except the
starter, but also the battery. Â In a general way,
DC generators can be divided into two kinds
separately excited generator (see fig 2-3) and
self excited generator (see fig 2-4)

15- Para6 In recent years, alternating-current
(a-c) generators have come into widespread use.
But the battery, ignition system, and other
electrical components can not use a-c because
they are all d-c units. So the a-c output must
therefore be rectified, or changed to d-c.
Customarily, ac generator is also called silicon
rectifying generator (see fig2-5).

30Text AnalysisLesson 5 Electric Motor
- Para1 Electric motors are everywhere! In your
house, in your work place almost every mechanical
movement you can find an AC (alternating current)
or DC (direct current) electric motor. - Para2 Firstly lets look at dc motors. DC motors
(see fig 5-1) are easy to understand. They are
also simple to make and only require a battery or
dc supply to make them run. A simple motor
consists of six parts armature or rotor,
commutator, brushes, axle, field magnet and DC
power supply of some sort.

32- Para3 Secondly, lets learn something about ac
motor. If we apply alternating current to the
simple direct current motor, the obstacle of how
to reverse the current and the polarity of the
electromagnet are no longer an issue. Since the
current alternates direction at a certain
frequency, the magnetic field of an electromagnet
can be made to change polarity at the same
frequency. - Para4 If the same device is put to use in
reverse, that is, if an outside mechanical force
is used to turn the armature, an alternating
current will be produced illustrated in fig5-2
33Fig5-2
34- Para5 Among the ac motors, asynchronous motors
are the most popular in port. Because they have
the following advantages simple structure, easy
maintenance and operation, low price, reliable
operation and so on. If we divide the
asynchronous motors from the angle of power
supply, we can get single-phase asynchronous
motor and three-phase asynchronous motor (see
fig5-3).

48Text AnalysisLesson 6 Programmable Logic
Controller
- Para1 In practice, we often use PLC to stand for
programmable logic controller. Can you give the
definition of PLC? Maybe we can define it just
like this A programmable logic controller (PLC)
is a digital computer used for automation of
industrial processes, such as control of
machinery on factory assembly lines. - Para2 Unlike general-purpose computers, the PLC
is often designed for multiple inputs and output
terminals, extended temperature ranges, immunity
to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration
and impact. The purpose of a PLC was to directly
replace electromechanical relays as logic
elements, substituting a solid-state digital
computer with a stored program. Fig6-1 is the
structure block diagram of integral PLC.

50- Para3 From fig6-1, we can see A PLC has many
"input" terminals, through which it interprets
"high" and "low" logical states from sensors and
switches. It also has many output terminals,
through which it outputs "high" and "low" signals
to power lights, solenoids, contactors, small
motors, and other devices lending themselves to
on/off control. - Para4 In order to make PLCs easy to program,
their programming language was designed to
resemble ladder logic diagrams. Thus, an
industrial electrician or electrical engineer
would feel comfortable programming a PLC, because
they are accustomed to reading ladder logic
schematics.
51- Para5The actual logic of the control system is
established inside the PLC by a computer program.
This program dictates which output gets energized
under which input conditions. Although the
program appears to be a ladder logic diagram,
with switch and relay symbols, there are no
actual switch contacts or relay coils operating
inside the PLC to create the logical
relationships between input and output. They are
imaginary contacts and coils. In fact, the
program is entered and viewed via a personal
computer connected to the PLC's programming port.

- Para1 What is a relay? In a general way, a relay
is an electrical switch that opens and closes
under the control of another electrical circuit.
In the original form, the switch is operated by
an electromagnet to open or close one or many
sets of contacts. Because a relay can control an
output circuit of higher power than the input
circuit, it can be considered to be a form of an
electrical amplifier. - Para2 The circuit symbol for a relay and the
pictures of the common relays are presented in
fig7-1. Fig 7-2 shows a working relay with its
coil and switch contacts.

- Para1 A frequency converter or frequency changer
(see fig10-1) is an electronic device that
converts alternating current (AC) of one
frequency to alternating current of another
frequency. The device may also change the voltage.
Fig 10-1 TEMCO Frequency Converter
117- Para2 Frequency changers are often used to
control the speed of pumps and fans. In many
applications significant energy savings are
achieved. The most demanding application areas
are found on the industrial processing lines,
where the control accuracy requirements can be
very high. - Para3 Frequency converters have many
classification methods - i) According to different operating patterns of
the main circuits, frequency converters are
divided into voltage frequency converters and
current frequency converters.
118- ii) According to different switching modes,
they can be classified as PAM frequency
converter, PWM frequency converter and so on.
Here PAM means pulse amplitude modulation, PWM
means pulse width modulation. - iii) According to different working principle,
we can define frequency converters them as V/f
frequency converter, slip frequency converter and
vector control frequency converter. - iv) According to different applications, we can
classify converters into general inverter, high
performance specific inverter, high frequency
inverter and single phase inverter.
119- Para4 Common frequency converter configurations

130Text AnalysisLesson 22 Contactor and Fuse
- Para1 This passage mainly deals with contactor
and fuse. - Contactor
- Para2 Firstly, lets learn the contactor. A
contactor (see fig 11-1) is an electrically
controlled switch used for switching a power
circuit. Generally speaking, a contactor is
activated by a control input which is a lower
voltage / current than that which the contactor
is switching. Contactors come in many forms with
varying capacities and features.
131Fig 11-1
132- Para3 Contactors vary from having a breaking
current of several amps and 110 volts to
thousands of amps and many kilo-volts. The
physical size of contactors differs from a few
inches to the size of a small car. - Para4 Then lets know the purpose of contactor.
Usually, contactors are used to control electric
motors, lighting, heating, capacitor banks and
other electrical loads. - Para5 And now lets see what a contractor
consists of. We can say a contactor consists of
3 different systems contact system,
electromagnet system and arc control system.
133- Para6 So do you know their function? In a general
way, the contact system is the current carrying
part of the contactor. This includes power
contacts, auxiliary contacts, and contact
springs. The electromagnet system provides the
driving force to close the contacts. - Fuse
- Para7 Maybe you have already known that a fuse
(see fig 11-2) is the easiest and efficient
protective electrical apparatus and it is
designed for short circuit protection in many
cases. Always we use FU to stand for fuse.

148Text AnalysisLesson 23 Transformers
- Para1 Have you ever seen the picture of fig12-1?
Yes, it is a transformer. Maybe you often use a
transformer in your daily life. So you must be
familiar with it. We can define a transformer
like this A transformer is a device that
transfers electrical energy from one circuit to
another circuit through inductively coupled
electrical conductors. All transformers have at
least one coil most have two although they may
have many more. The usual function of
transformers is to change the level of voltage.
149 Fig 12-1 Three-phase pole-mounted step-down
transformer
150- Para2 In fact, standard power transformers have
two coils. These 2 coils are labeled PRIMARY and
SECONDARY separately. And the primary coil is the
one connected to the source. The secondary is the
one connected to the load. You must notice there
is no electrical connection between the primary
and secondary. Actually, the secondary gets its
voltage by induction. - Para3 Transformers come in a range of sizes from
a thumbnail-sized coupling transformer which is
hidden inside a stage microphone to huge units
weighing hundreds of tons which is often used to
interconnect portions of national power grids.
But all operate with the same basic principles.
Fig 12-2 tells us clearly the structure of a
transformer. Have you got the working principle
of it? Please think over.
151 Fig 12-2
152- Para4 At last lets pay attention to their
working efficiency .It is said that transformers
are some of the most efficient electrical
machines, with some large units able to transfer
99.75 of their input power to their output.
