2.2MANUFACTURED UNITS

  1. Description: Electronic components and switching devices are housed in one or more metal cabinets, with batteries rack or cabinet mounted separately. Automatic system operating functions include the following:
  2. Normal Conditions: Supply the load from the normal ac power input terminals, through the rectifier/battery charger and inverter output to load, with the battery “floating” on the inverter input.
  3. Abnormal Supply Conditions: When the normal ac supply deviates from specified voltage, waveform, or frequency limits, the battery supplies energy to maintain constant inverter output to the load.
  4. When normal power fails, energy supplied by the battery through the inverter continues supply to the load without switching or disturbance.
  5. When power is restored at the normal supply terminals of the system, the rectifier/battery charger supplies power to the load through the inverter and simultaneously recharges the battery. Synchronize the inverter with the external source before transferring the load.
  6. Charge the battery with the rectifier/battery charger. On reaching full charge, shift to a float-charge mode.
  7. When any element of the UPS system fails and power is available at the normal supply terminals of the system, switch the load to the normal source with less than one-quarter-cycle interruption of supply.
  8. The static bypass transfer switch operates to supplement the output of the UPS system for fault clearing.
  9. Functional Description of Manual Operation: Manual operating functions include the following:
  10. Turning the inverter “off” causes the load to be transferred by the static bypass transfer switch directly to the normal ac input source without interruption.
  11. Turning the inverter “on” causes the static bypass transfer switch to transfer the load to the inverter.
  12. Maintenance Bypass/Isolation Switch: The switch has 3 settings that produce the following conditions without interrupting supply to the load during switching:
  13. Full Isolation: Load is supplied bypassing UPS. UPS ac supply input, static bypass transfer switch, and UPS load terminals are completely disconnected from external circuits.
  14. Maintenance Bypass: Load is supplied bypassing UPS. UPS ac supply terminals are energized to permit operational checking, but system load terminals are isolated from the load.
  15. Normal: UPS ac supply terminals are energized and the load is being supplied through either the static bypass transfer switch or the UPS rectifier and inverter.
