Safety Safety Symbols Used in this Manual CAUTION HAZARDOUS CONDITION To reduce the risk of electrical shock, injury or death caused by moving parts or the explosion of fuel, and to ensure the safe operation of this unit, the following symbols have been placed throughout this manual.
Safety Utility Power Connection Notes Warning! Do not unplug output connector while unit is in operation! Circuit breaker must be turned off first. CAUTION: Installation must be performed by qualified service personnel only, and in compliance with local electrical codes. Connection to utility power must be approved by the local utility before installing the power supply.
Unpacking and Inspection Verify that the following items have been included in the shipping container: APP 9015S: 1. APP 9015S Service Power Supply Alpha p/n: 016-529-20 2. Power cord with 5-20P plug (120VAC) Alpha p/n: 874-726-20 NEMA 5-20 Plug 3. Power cord with 6-15P plug (240VAC)

Twist Lock plug (125VAC) Alpha p/n: 874-935-22 NEMA L5-30R Plug Inspect the contents. If items are damaged or missing, contact Alpha Technologies and the shipping company. Most shipping companies have a limited claim period, so it is important to report damage immediately.
"Output" indicator to verify AC output power; an input breaker to provide additional voltage protection; and a 60/75/90 VAC switch for output voltage selection. MODEL APP 9015S APP 9022S Input Voltage (VAC) 120/240 ± 15% 120/240 ±...
1. Introduction Theory of Operation The APP SPS contains a ferroresonant transformer and a resonant capacitor. (Refer to Figure 3-1, APP 9022S schematic.) During AC LINE operation, utility power is fed into the primary winding of the ferroresonant transformer, T1. An AC capacitor, C1, forms the resonant circuit of the ferroresonant transformer which provides noise and spike attenuation, short circuit current limiting, and output voltage regulation.

Inserter (SPI) through an output cable. Output Cables 9015S: Included with the APP 9015S is an output cable used to connect the Service Power Supply to the SPI, via a four-pin Jones connector. 9022S: Included with the APP 9022S are two 6-ft output "Y" cables. One cable terminates with two Jones connectors, and provides service power to one or two separate 20A SPIs.

(9022S model only), plug APP SPS into red and white 25A connectors. (Figure 2-2.) Determine the line voltage of the UPS. This step for APP 9015S model only: Select appropriate line voltage (120/240 VAC) by using the Input Voltage Selector switch.
2. Installation APP SPS Installation and Power Module Removal, continued 10. Disconnect the wires from the power module. CAUTION: Do not let exposed battery cables come in contact with the chassis or enclosure. 11. Reverse this procedure when reinstalling a module. CAUTION: The ferroresonant transformer generates heat and may cause burns if handled with bare hands.
This guide is designed to cover typical symptoms, causes and solutions for trouble-shooting the APP SPS. Alpha Technologies recommends that the power supply maintenance log accompany units brought in for bench service to aid the technician in trouble-shooting the problem.
