1. Safety Precautions This manual contains information concerning the installation and operation of Tower UPS. Please carefully read this manual prior to installation. The Tower UPS cannot be put into operation until it is commissioned by engineers approved by the manufacturer (or its agent). Not doing so could result in personnel safety risk, equipment malfunction and invalidation of warranty.
Move & Install Keep the equipment away from heat source or air outlets. In case of fire, use dry powder extinguisher only, any liquid Danger extinguisher can result in electric shock. Do not start the system if any damage or abnormal parts founded.
Battery Safety All the battery maintenance and servicing procedures involving internal access need special tools or keys and should be carried out only by trained personnel. WHEN CONNECTED TOGETHER, THE BATTERY TERMINAL VOLTAGE WILL EXCEED 400Vdc AND IS POTENTIALLY LEATHAL.
Disposal Dispose of used battery according to the local instructions Warning Dispose the packaging in the correct way Warning After unpacking save the shipping materials, recycle or dispose them as law disposal End product life Warning This product not be disposed of as urban waste: The product’s components must be disposed of separately as a Weee.
2. Product Introduction 2.1 System Configuration The Tower UPS is configured by the following part: Power modules, Bypass & Monitoring module, and cabinet with manual Bypass switch. One or several battery strings should be installed to provide backup energy once the utility fails. The UPS structure is shown in Fig.
2.3.1 Normal Mode The inverter of power modules continuously supply the critical AC load. The rectifier/charger derives power from the AC mains input source and supplies DC power to the inverter while simultaneously FLOAT or BOOST charging its associated backup battery. Fig 2-3 Normal mode operation diagram 2.3.2 Battery Mode Upon failure of the AC mains input power, the inverter of power modules, which...
2.3.3 Bypass Mode If the inverter overload capacity is exceeded under Normal mode, or if the inverter becomes unavailable for any reason, the static transfer switch will perform a transfer of the load from the inverter to the bypass source, with no interruption in power to the critical AC load.
2.3.5 ECO Mode To improve system efficiency, UPS rack system works in Bypass mode at normal time, and inverter is standby. When the utility fails, the UPS transfers to Battery Mode and the inverter powers the loads. Fig.2-7 ECO Mode operation diagram Note There is a short interruption time (less than 10ms) when transfer from ECO mode to battery mode, it must be sure that the interruption has no effect on loads.
