BLOCK DIAGRAM AND MAIN ELEMENTS

The SG Series system can be divided into the following main elements:
Control System
circuits. The interface between the operator and the unit is provided by the monitoring system on the
front panel.
This monitoring system consists of an active mimic diagram, a keyboard and a backlit display.
Rectifier
phase Utility Voltage into a controlled and regulated DC-voltage.
This regulated DC-voltage is used to supply power to the Inverter, and to provide charging power to the
Battery.
Inverter
constant amplitude and frequency, which is completely independent and isolated from the AC-input
voltage.
Automatic Bypass
Switch Module), used to provide an uninterrupted transfer of the Load from Inverter to Utility.
Back-feed Protection
against voltage back feeding towards Utility, through the Bypass (Applied Standard IEC 62040-1).
This protection works automatically by opening contactor K6 and K8 (in series with the thyristors of the
static switch) and eventually K7, and acts in case of internal defects of the system, or due to wrong
manipulations on the Manual Bypass Q2.
Manual Bypass
removes the UPS from the Load for maintenance, while still supplying the Load with power directly from
the Utility.
Battery
accepted tolerances.
