SAFETY IMPORTANT NOTICES 1. Read instructions carefully before installing and starting the UPS 2. All warnings in the manual should be adhered to. 3. All operating instructions should be followed. 4. The unit should be supplied by a grounded outlet. Do not operate the unit without a ground source. 5.
I. GENERAL DESCRIPTION 1.3 Introduction INFORM PDSP Series Uninterruptible Power Supplies are double-conversion, on-line UPS’s, manufactured with the latest IGBT and PWM technology, to produce an uninterruptible, microprocessor controlled pure sine wave output to critical loads. INFORM PDSP Series units are 3-phase in/3-phase out devices, and they are installed between a three phase critical load, and a 3-phase+N mains supply The advantages of using PDSP UPS: •...
STATIC TRANSFER SWITCH (STATIC BYPASS) : This is an electronically controlled transfer switch, which enables the critical load to be connected either to inverter output or to a by-pass power source. During normal operation, the load is supplied by the inverter output, but in case of an overload it is automatically transferred to the bypass source without any interruption.

FAULT STATUS: In some cases controller checks events but can not find solutions, in this case controller decide to stop the system. For restarting the user must turn off the ON/OFF switch and turn it on again. WARNING STATUS: Some events recorded to log event file stays on LCD PANEL but UPS continues to work, these messages named as warning messages, user can clear this messages by pressing ENTER key for 3 seconds.

ALARM DESCRIPTION A28 P.FAILURE 21 Parallel controller board failure A29 P.TEST MODE Parallel controller is in test mode A30 P FAILURE 23 Parallel controller board failure A31 DUBL UPS NR. Same UPS number is used for two UPS in the parallel system. Possible Causes: 1) Change number(s) in OPTIONS Menu.
IV. PARALLEL OPERATION 4.1 Introduction Two (or more) identical PDSP series UPSs can be interconnected for parallel operation. The main purposes for parallel use of PDSP 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.
If this mode is active, you will see ‘’REDUNDT. MODE/MS’’ on the LCD panel of one of the UPS units, and you will see ‘’REDUNDT. MODE/SL’’ on the LCD panels of all the other UPS units connected in the parallel system.

Parallel signal cables are interconnected between the UPS units to form a loop, as shown in figure 4.2, for having higher reliability against any possible signal cable failures.

V. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS INTRODUCTION After completing the installation of the unit, and connecting all the power cables with all switches and fuses in “OFF” position, 1. Check the battery polarities. : + V (+360V Nominal, +405V under float charge) K2 - K2 (NEUTRAL BUSBAR) : 0 Volts (connected to the midpoint of the 60 blocks battery string) : - V (-360V Nominal, -405V under float charge) 2.
5.2.3 Switching into Maintenance Bypass Mode 1. Use “DOWN” button to choose COMMAND MENU and press ENTER. Use “DOWN” button again to reach ENTER <BYPASS> message. Press ENTER, the UPS will switch into bypass mode. “MANUAL BYPASS” and “A52 MANUA. BYPASS” messages will appear on the screen. 2.
7. Turn off S7 (ON-OFF) and after a few seconds turn it on again. UPS wilt start running again. 8. When “INVERTER START” message appears on the front panel turn on S5 (Battery) into “1”. Perform the same procedure given above for all UPS units. Make sure that all the units have the same operating mode but different UPS numbers.
VI. MAINTENANCE WARNING!!! DO NOT OPEN the covers of the UPS because there are no user serviceable parts inside. DO NOT TOUCH battery leads. There is high voltage even if the UPS is off. Therefore no one should open the covers of the UPS except authorized service personnel. Otherwise, serious injuries may occur.
6.4 Annual maintenance To get reliable and efficient performance from the UPS, please call the qualified service personal at least once a year. 6.5 UPS Storage and transportation 1. Check the batteries charge by performing manual battery test before storage. If the charge is not enough then charge the batteries at least for 12 hours.
VII. FAULTS AND TROUBLESHOOTING 7.1 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.
VIII. UPS REMOTE MONITORING AND CONTROL Following external connections are available for PDSP series UPSs. • Communication by serial port connection. • Dry contact (interface board) connections. • Remote monitoring panel. 8.1 Using Serial Port A standard Serial (RS232) communication port is installed to all PDSP series UPS. By using this port user can get all information about the UPS.
In “RS232” position of DIP switches, RS232 communication with an external device is performed through the standard DB9 socket shown above. If DIP switches are in “INTERNAL” position, communication through the standard socket is turned off and routed to an internally connected device. For example, if an ML100 Port Multiplexer has been installed in the UPS, standard DB9 socket is not used for RS232 communication, instead, the two ports, COM1 and COM2 on the ML100 can be used for external communication simultaneously.
8.3.3 Modem programming procedure Smart modem (SM) is the one connected to PC, and NULL Modem (NM) is the one connected to the UPS. Standard Hayes AT programming language is the suitable language for modems. In usual applications a modem which uses AT command set should be selected. 8.3.3.1 SMART Modem Programming (PC modem) The connected modem to PC (smart modem) will be programmed from UPS control software automatically.
Static Transfer Switch Battery Circuit Emergency Stop Line Failure Battery Low Relay By-Pass Breaker Input Relay Relay NOTE: Emergency stop terminals (4 and 5) should be short circuited by an external EPO switch to apply an EMERGENCY POWER OFF to the UPS (No output voltage). Line Failure, Battery Low and Bypass relays are normally de-energized and they are energized only in case of an alarm.
