K2 is internal or external depending on model and/or power Figure 3-1 GC Series Industrial UPS Breaker Configuration 3.1 SWITCHING THE UPS TO POWER THE LOAD FROM A POWER OFF This procedure should be followed when turning on the UPS from a fully powered down condition - i.e.
GC Series Industrial UPS Users Manual 4. After the DC bus voltage is stabilized, inverter will start its operation. 10 seconds later, the STS will switch its output the inverter. Inverter Fail and Outpyu Fail alarms will disappear. 5. Now, it is safe to turn the K2 battery circuit breaker (internal or external) on.
GC Series Industrial UPS Users Manual 3.4 PROCEDURE FOR SWITCING THE UPS INTO A MAINTENANCE BYPASS POWER DOWN This procedure should be followed to transfer the load from the UPS inverter output to the maintenance bypass system. This may be required during UPS maintenance procedures.
GC Series Industrial UPS Users Manual 4. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE CAUTION There are no by the user servicable parts inside the equipment, therefore DO NOT OPEN THE COVER OF THE EQUIPMENT. Because of possible external battery connection and dry contact relay outputs, THERE MAY BE HIGH VOLTAGE INSIDE THE EQUIPMENT, EVEN WHEN THE RECTIFIER IS TURNED OFF.
GC Series Industrial UPS Users Manual documented periodic program of inspection and preventive maintenance, as suggested below, will help to ensure optimum equipment performance and may serve to detect certain minor malfunctions prior to them developing into a major fault.
GC Series Industrial UPS Users Manual given below. We therefore strongly recommend that the annual service is carried out by trained personnel. Carry out the weekly checks detailed above. Shut down the UPS following the recommended operating procedure.
