    Important Safety Instructions MPORTANT AFETY NSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS This manual contains important instructions that should be followed during installation and maintenance of your Liebert NXL UPS and DC source. WARNING Risk of electric shock. Can cause equipment damage, injury or death. Exercise extreme care when handling UPS cabinets to avoid equipment damage or injury to personnel.
  • Page 10: Introduction

    Introduction NTRODUCTION General Description The Liebert NXL UPS provides continuous, high-quality AC power to your business-critical equipment, such as telecommunications and data processing equipment. The Liebert NXL UPS supplies power that is free of the disturbances and variations in voltage and frequency common to utility power, which is subject to brownouts, blackouts, surges and sags.
  • Page 11: Modes Of Operation

    Introduction Modes of Operation 1.2.1 Normal Mode Operating in normal mode, the Liebert NXL’s rectifier derives power from a utility AC source and supplies regulated DC power to the inverter, which regenerates precise AC power to supply the connected equipment. The rectifier also uses the utility source power to charge the DC sources. 1.2.2 Bypass Mode When the Liebert NXL is in bypass mode, the load is directly supported by utility power and is...
