UPS or peripheral equipment. CAUTION: The PowerWAVE 6000 S3 (60-120 kVA) is a Class A UPS product (according to EN 62040-3). In a domestic environment the UPS may cause radio interference. In such an environment the user may be required to undertake additional measures.
Declaration of Safety conformity and CE marking The PowerWAVE 6000 S3 (60-120 kVA) UPS system is designed and manufactured in accordance with Quality Management Systems standard EN ISO 9001. The CE marking indicates conformity to the EEC Directive by the application of the following standards in accordance with the specifications of the harmonized standards: •...
Such demands are well met by the PowerWAVE 6000 S3 (60-120 kVA) UPS system, which provides the foundation for continuous power availability of network-critical infrastructures both in enterprise data centres, where business continuity has paramount importance, and in process control environments, where manufacturing continuity is essential.
The UPS batteries are installed in a separate cabinet or mounted in a purpose-designed battery rack. The battery arrangement will vary from site to site depending on the battery specification and environmental requirements; however, Kohler Uninterruptible Power Ltd can provide a range of external battery cabinets to suit the vast majority of installations.

• From the maintenance bypass line – via the maintenance bypass isolator (IA1). Only one of these output supply sources can be active at any given point in time and the criteria for operating under each of these UPS modes is described below.

In this scenario the battery is only required to support the inverter (load) until the generator comes on-line, and as a modern generator can be automatically started very quickly this results in a relatively short battery discharge period – which helps to prolong the battery life.

(‘load on bypass’) before the maintenance bypass switch is closed. CAUTION: Always follow the operating instructions in Chapter 5 of this manual when starting or shutting down the UPS. TS_610_01 PowerWAVE 6000 S3 (60-120kVA) User Manual 21/10/19...
This situation is easily managed in a PW6000 (S3) multi-module installation, which allows an additional module to be installed in an existing parallel system without having to temporarily transfer the load to the raw by-pass TS_610_01 PowerWAVE 6000 S3 (60-120kVA) User Manual 21/10/19...
Key Point: If a PowerWAVE 6000 S3 (60-120 kVA) module is purchased as a standalone, single unit UPS it will require a field upgrade to make it suitable for parallel operation at a later time. For this reason, if you know that your load is likely to expand in the future it is advisable to install a parallel-capable module at the outset.
When an alarm condition is activated the LED is accompanied by an audible alarm. Figure 2.9 Module mimic diagram TS_610_01 PowerWAVE 6000 S3 (60-120kVA) User Manual 21/10/19...
– i.e. if the number of remaining modules is sufficient to support the connect load then the load will not be transferred. To shut down all the modules in a parallel system you must press both ON/OFF buttons on every module. TS_610_01 PowerWAVE 6000 S3 (60-120kVA) User Manual 21/10/19...
