II. UPS INSTALLATION Introduction WARNING!!! Do not apply electrical power to the UPS equipment before the arrival of authorized service personnel. The UPS equipment should be installed only by qualified service personnel. The connection of the batteries and the maintenance should be done by qualified service personnel.
Connecting the UPS Power Cables WARNING!!! A separate power line should be used to supply the UPS AC input. Never use the same line to supply another electrical device. Do not use any additional cable to increase the length of the UPS’s input cable. It is advised to use an MCCB suitable for the input current on the UPS’s input line.
As shown on the power cable connection diagram of the UPS, U1, V1 and W1 phase of the incoming 3 phase supply are also used as the bypass inputs under normal conditions (U1, V1, W1 and U2, V2, W2 are the same in this case).
(+) and (-) buttons are used for adjustments or option selection. The front panel also includes an illuminated BPC logo, reflecting the status of the unit at a glance and controlled by operation and messages which can be viewed in more detail via the screen.
Colour Status Alarm condition:: Unit is in a state of alarm and will display an alarm message, please review status and refer to section 3.3 to identify the alarm and the course of action to be taken. Warning condition: Unit is displaying a warning message, please review status and refer to section 3.3 to identify the warning and the course of action to be taken.

IV. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 4.1 INTRODUCTION After all the electrical connections of UPS have been made and while all the circuit breakers and switches of the device and the external battery cabinet are turned OFF (at “0” position); 1. Check the polarities of battery connections (ON THE EXTERNAL BATTERY CABINET) ...
After performing the above procedure, UPS is completely shut-down. In this case PFC rectifier and inverter are not operating and the batteries are not being charged. 4.2.3 Switching the UPS from a Normal Operation to Maintenance Bypass Condition 1. Select COMMANDS menu by using () and () buttons on front panel during normal operation. Select ENTER<BYPASS>...
4.3 UPS Behavior During Mains Outage When the mains voltage is not available " R02 LINE FAILURE " message appears on LCD display. Sound warning on and off is heard at the same time. UPS continues to supply the critical loads by converting the battery voltage to AC voltage and provides operation without data losses or any other fault.
V. PARALLEL OPERATION 1 Introduction Two (or more) identical EF300 series UPSs can be interconnected for parallel operation. The main purposes for parallel use of EF300 series UPSs are: -Redundancy for Increased Reliability -Power Increase Although recent UPS designs are perfect and have high MTBF figures, a second (or more) UPS can be used in parallel with the first one, for supplying the critical load in case of any possible failure of the first UPS.
The AC inputs of all UPSs in the parallel system are connected to the same mains, and all the AC outputs are connected to each other. Each UPS has its own battery group. The critical load is connected to the common output of the parallel system. There are also some signal cable connections between the UPS units necessary for parallel operation and will be described later.

6.2.3 Switching the UPS from a Normal Operation to Maintenance Bypass Condition 1. Select COMMANDS menu by using () and () buttons on front panel during normal operation. Select ENTER<BYPASS> command by using the UP and DOWN buttons and press ENTER button. The critical load is transferred to bypass supply in this case and this event is indicated on the mimic diagram and also with “A09 MANUAL BYPASS”...
VII. MAINTENANCE ATTENTION !!! There are no parts inside the UPS or battery group that needs service or maintenance work that should be done by user. Therefore, DO NOT OPEN THE COVER OF UPS. Never touch on any terminal of battery group. There is risk of electric shock inside the UPS even when it is completely turned off (because of energy storage components).
Take notes if possible when you are examining the UPS. Compare the notes with previous ones and try to determine if there is a change or not. If there is a difference between the previous notes and the new ones, search for and record any new load added to UPS output between two records and the magnitude, place and type of the new load, if possible.
VIII. FAULTS AND TROUBLESHOOTING 8.1 General Procedure For Fault Checking And Troubleshooting UPS contains complicated electronic control circuits. In order to locate any fault occurring circuits, an advanced knowledge about the circuitry and its operation principles must be known. The aim of this section is to give the knowledge required at the first intervention.
Using one of above communication options is satisfactory for remote monitoring and control in most of the systems. But in some systems may use 2 or 3 of above options at the same time. In this case accessories group produced by BPC may help to make appropriate solutions. 9.1 Using Serial Port Two serial communication port is included on EF300XU Series UPS cabinet (com1 and com2).
9.3 Modem Connection A EF300XU Series UPS can be controlled through a normal telephone line by means of a remote operator connected through a PC with modem device, who performs a phone call to the UPS connected number. So the operator can see all parameters and control the UPS (if permitted from OPTIONS MENU). 9.3.1 Hardware Configuration All requirements for modem connection are as follows: ...
9.3.4 Modem – UPS Connection Cable Connection of Smart Modem device to UPS is made with standard modem cable and it’s supplied as standard accessory for smart modem. This cable is required if an external modem will be used, and not necessary for internal modems.
EFFICIENT USAGE OF UPS IN TERMS OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION Products should be used according to the conditions and procedures defined in the manual. When this is made the most efficient usage of the product is guaranteed. Energy efficiency means, decreasing consumed energy amount to the minimum level possible in every step of living activities, without a decrease in quality or amount of produced work or product, and keeping this principle permanent.
