Operation Commissioning The Kohler PW5000/TP UPS is a high quality electronic machine that must be commissioned by a fully trained and authorised Kohler Uninterruptible Power field service engineer before being put into use. Commissioning the UPS involves connecting the UPS battery, checking the electrical installation and operating environment of the UPS, performing a controlled start-up and testing of the UPS system, and customer training.
4.4.4 Multi-module configuration concept Up to 20 Kohler PW5000/TP UPS modules can be connected in parallel to provide increased power capacity or redundancy operation. Note: Although the UPS single/multi configuration can be modified in the field it is generally specified on ordering so that the module can be configured and fully tested in the factory prior to despatch.
