General Description General introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the PW9000DPA S2 UPS. Continuous power availability is essential in today’s dynamic IT and process-related work environments. It is equally important that any installed power protection system is sufficiently resilient and adaptable to handle any changes brought about by the introduction of new server technologies, migration and centralization.

2: General Description Hot-swappable modules In a redundant module system the unique ‘hot-swappable’ feature enables a UPS module to be added or removed from its cabinet whilst the system is still powered. This can be done without disturbing the load or transferring it to the bypass supply.
2: General Description PW9000DPA S2 Model range The PW9000DPA S2 UPS incorporates a rack-mountable design based on 30kVA, 40kVA and 50kVA plug-in UPS modules fitted into one of three purpose-built cabinets. Each module is a self-contained UPS comprising a rectifier, battery charger, inverter and static switch;...

2: General Description Battery connections (3) Each UPS module is connected to a battery string via a dedicated fused isolator. Ideally, each module is connected to an individual battery but in some installations a common battery is shared between two (or more) modules. The battery fuse (F3) is fitted inside the module and is not accessible to the operator.
2: General Description Inverter output contactor (10) The inverter output contactor is driven by the UPS module’s control logic and operates in conjunction with the static switch as part of the bypass/inverter load transfer process. The contactor is also used to isolate the inverter from the UPS output within the module following certain overload or fault conditions.

2: General Description to three minutes, whereupon it begins flashing red. This allows the operator to gauge the remaining autonomy time and, where necessary, shut down the load in an orderly manner (e.g. save data) before the battery is fully discharged. Various options are available to automate the load shut down process and if an automated data protection application is installed it usually begins its automatic shut down routine at this point.

Installation Introduction This chapter contains essential information concerning the unpacking, installation planning and cabling of the PW9000DPA S2 UPS system. Key Point: If you are installing an external battery cabinet supplied by Uninterruptible Power Supplies Ltd. you should refer to the manual that is provided with the cabinet for installation instructions. WARNING: All the operations described in this chapter must be supervised by suitably qualified personnel and all aspects of the electrical installation must be carried out by an authorised electrician.
3: Installation 3.2.4 Storage If you plan to store the UPS prior to its installation it should be kept (preferably in its shipping packaging) in a clean, dry environment with a temperature between -25°C to +70°C and RH <90%. If the storage period is likely to exceed seven days the packaging should be removed and the UPS inspected for shipping damage before it is placed into storage.
3: Installation Installation planning (environmental & mechanical) 3.3.1 Environmental considerations A certain amount of pre-planning will help provide a trouble-free installation process. You should consider the following guidelines when planning a suitable UPS location and operating environment. The route to the installation location must allow the equipment to be transported in an upright position. The floor at the proposed installation site and en-route from the off-loading point must be able to safely support the weight of the UPS and battery equipment, plus fork lift or trolley jack during transit.

Operating Procedures Introduction 4.1.1 Commissioning The PW9000DPA S2 UPS is a high quality, complex electronic system which must be commissioned by an authorised Uninterruptible Power Supplies Ltd engineer before it is put into use. The commissioning engineer will: • check the UPS electrical and mechanical installation, and operating environment •...
4: Operating Procedures 4.1.3 General warnings WARNING: The procedures given below must be performed by a trained operator. WARNING: When the UPS system is operating on BYPASS or via the MAINTENANCE BYPASS SWITCH, the load supply is unprotected if the bypass mains supply fails. It is essential that the load user is informed of this possibility before you select these operating modes.

4: Operating Procedures Power-up the load: Connect the UPS system input supply. LINE 2 BY PASS a) Power will be applied to the UPS modules, but they will be turned OFF. LOAD On every module control panel, verify that: LINE 1 INVERTER a) The LINE 1 LED is green.
4: Operating Procedures Transfer the load to inverter: 15. If the BYPASS LED is green (on ALL modules), open the maintenance bypass switch. Note: If the BYPASS LED is not green, repeat step 7. Seek trained advice if it still fails to light green. 16.
4: Operating Procedures How to transfer the load to maintenance bypass IMPORTANT NOTE In the following procedures, all references to the ‘Maintenance Bypass Switch’ apply to the internal maintenance bypass switch (IA1) in the case of a single cabinet if it is not connected to an external maintenance bypass facility.
4: Operating Procedures On all module control panels, verify that: LINE 2 BY PASS a) The INVERTER LED is extinguished. b) The BYPASS LED is green. LOAD LINE 1 INVERTER The LCD displays LOAD NOT PROTECTED. BATTERY Transfer the load to maintenance bypass: Close the maintenance bypass switch.
4: Operating Procedures Operating in ‘on bypass’ mode When operating the UPS system in ‘on bypass’ mode, the load is powered normally through the UPS bypass (‘on bypass’) and switches to inverter (‘on inverter’) if the bypass supply fails. CAUTION: When operating in the ‘on bypass’ mode there is a short supply break when the UPS switches to the ‘on-inverter’...
Maintenance Introduction WARNING: All the operations described in this chapter must be performed by trained personnel. The UPS does not contain any user-serviceable parts, so the maintenance requirements are minimal other than to ensure the environment in which the UPS is installed is kept cool and dust free. A clean operating environment will help maximise the useful working life and reliability of both the UPS and its batteries.
5: Maintenance 5.2.3 Battery maintenance and testing The batteries should be checked and tested by a trained engineer every six months, depending on the ambient temperature. The battery test takes approximately two minutes to complete and can be performed only if: •...
