Basic System Configurations
These basic UPS system configurations are possible:
·
Single Module UPS and one battery string
·
Multi-Module (Parallel for Capacity/Redundancy) UPS System consisting of two
or more UPS modules, with one battery string for each module and a
Hot---Sync Capacity module
·
Multi-Module (Parallel for Capacity/Redundancy) UPS System consisting of two
or more UPS modules, with one common battery string and a Hot---Sync
Capacity module
The optional Hot---Sync Capacity system (Parallel for Capacity/Redundancy), using a
System Bypass Module (SBM), allows two or more UPMs to operate in parallel to
provide more capacity than a single UPM and as backup for each other. The Parallel
Capacity/Redundant system can supply up to 4000 Amps, depending on the SBM
used. In addition, when one UPM is taken out of service for maintenance or is not
operating properly, the redundant UPM continues to supply uninterrupted power to the
critical load.
You can enhance any of these system configurations by adding optional accessories,
such as a Remote Monitor Panel (RMP), Relay Interface Module (RIM), Supervisory
Contact Module (SCM), or Remote Emergency Power Off (EPO) control.
Using This Manual
Your UPMs function automatically and require very little attention during normal
operation. However, you should read and understand the procedures described in this
manual to ensure trouble-free operation. In particular, you should be thoroughly
familiar with the Emergency UPM Off procedure described in Chapter 7 of this manual.
The information in this manual is divided into the sections and chapters listed.
The system you are installing dictates which parts of this manual you should read.
Everyone should read the Introduction, Chapters 1 and 2 and Chapters 7 through 12.
