Getting Started
2.2 Typical Powerware 9315 UPS System
Each component of the UPS system is housed in a free-standing cabinet designed for
industrial or computer room applications. The cabinets match in style and color, and have
safety shields behind the doors for hazardous voltage protection. Figure 2-1 shows a typical
Powerware 9315 UPS system.
Cabinet
Each cabinet of the UPS system is shipped separately. As shown in Figure 2-1, you can
combine a UPS with any of the options described in this manual to meet your system
needs. The UPS and options are described in detail later in this manual. The following
descriptions provide a brief overview of standard UPS features and available
enhancements.
NOTE You should read this manual and have thorough knowledge of UPS operation
before attempting to operate any of the UPS switches, controls, or optional components.
2.3 Looking Inside the UPS
The Powerware 9315 is a continuous duty, solid-state UPS that supports the following
equipment: process control, data processing, telecommunications/PBX, research, and
medical. The Powerware 9315 maintains power to the critical loads during commercial
electrical power brownout, blackout, overvoltage, undervoltage, and out-of-tolerance
frequency conditions.
The power required by your equipment is called the critical load. The UPS supplies the
critical load with conditioned power that is synchronized with your utility power. Figure 2-2
shows the main elements of the UPS.
