2. System Overview 2.1 System view See Figure 1-1 UPS Front View (left) and back view(right). Figure 1-1 2.2 Single Module Systems The ZP120N-31C 10KVA compact model is a true online, continuous-duty, transformer less, double-conversion, solid-state, three-one phase systems that provide conditioned and uninterruptible AC power to the UPS system output protecting the customer’s load from power problems.
Page 11
Figure 1-2 2.2.2 Modes of Operation - Single Module The ZP120N-31C 10KVA compact model will support a critical load in three different modes of operation: Normal mode, Battery mode, and Bypass mode. The UPS can automatically use all three modes, as required, without operator intervention. Sophisticated detection and control logic is used to ensure any change in operating mode is automatic and transparent to the load while internal monitoring systems indicate the current mode of operation.
Page 12
Figure 2-1 Line Mode PFC Figure 2-2 Line Mode INV 2.2.4 Battery Mode See Figure 2-3, Battery Mode. The UPS automatically transitions to Battery mode during a utility power failure or if the input power to the rectifier is out of specifications (refer to input specifications). During a utility power failure, the rectifier no longer has an AC utility source to supply the DC output power required to support the inverter.

mode until the input power to the rectifier is again within specifications (refer to input specifications). If the input power fails to return or is not within specification for normal operation, the battery will continue discharging until a DC voltage level is reached where the inverter output can no longer support the connected loads.
Page 14
filtering and spike protection is provided to the load, but no active power conditioning or battery support is available to the output of the system in the bypass mode of operation. The internal bypass comprises two relay and a static switch (STS) and a back feed protection equipment.

7.6 Failure Diagnosis 7.6.1 Failure checks procedure. Fig 7.6.1 General Guidance to start a trouble shooting process In this section, some debug skills are listed to help you finding the failure components and problems as soon as possible. Before continuing the following steps listed, we suggest that you should read problem shooting chart in previous section then check the components listed in Quick Start to find out which block is out of order, in order to shorten the service time.
Page 46
Attention: site maintain (for uninterruptable power maintain) must applies the load to the maintain mode first, and than show down the systems. Before starting service, some tools are necessary, at least: A DMM (Digital Multifunction Meter) meter, screwdrivers and discharge resistor (300/10W recommended).
