The equipment shall only be maintained and fixed by authorized technical persons. In case of a fault situation (damaged cabinet or connections, penetration of foreign materials into the cabinet etc.) de-energize the UPS immediately and consult with Tecnoware Technical Service.
2 Installation 2.1 Transportation The UPS must remain in a vertical position throughout the transportation. Make sure that the floor can support the weight of the system – check with building engineer if not sure. 2.2 Unpacking Equipment and batteries whose packaging is damaged during transportation shall be inspected by a qualified technical person before starting with the installation.
Access is through the use of a tool or lock and key, or other means of security and is controlled by the authorized person responsible for the location. Recommended operating temperature, humidity and altitude values are listed on the “Technical Specifications”...
According to EN 62040-1-2, the user shall place a warning label on the input distribution panel and the other primary power isolators, in order to prevent the risk of electric shock caused by a fault voltage on the UPS. The label shall carry the following wording: ISOLATE THE UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY (UPS) BEFORE WORKING ON THIS CIRCUIT 2.5 Connections Connections shall be done by authorized technical staff only.
2.5.1 Internal Battery Connection The models EVO DSP TM 10-30 KVA can be equipped with internal batteries. In such case these devices may have very hazardous voltages on the Battery terminals. When the UPS has battery inside, before doing any operation please do the following points: 1.
2.5.2 Power Connections The power screw terminals are located on the lower front side of the UPS. Refer to the names of each terminal to identify it during connection. Connection terminals for all models with optional split Bypass Battery terminals: use only to connect external battery. Cables shall be passed through the hole under the connection terminals.
2.5.2.3 Separated Bypass Mains Input Connection (Optional) Bring the circuit breaker on the distribution panel to “OFF” or “0” position before making the connections Connect the Phase of Bypass Input mains to Bypass (X3) L1 terminal. Connect the Neutral to N terminal of X3. 2.5.2.4 External Battery Connection Do not put the Battery fuses into the fuse holder (F5) before operating the equipment...
3 Operating Modes There are three operating modes, which differ in the path of the energy flow. UPS block diagrams and the energy flow path in each operating mode is shown below: Static Bypass circuit INPUT OUTPUT Rectifier Inverter 3 Phases + 1 Phase + Neutral Neutral...
When UPS has no separate Bypass mains input, Bypass line is also fed from the mains input. Thus, if such a device is in question, mains input shall be comprehended when the Bypass mains input is referred in the following sections of the manual. UPS behavior at the start-up is different from the usual operation.
3.2 Normal Mode Energy is drawn from the mains input. Loads are fed via the Rectifier and the Inverter. The AC voltage at the input is converted to a DC voltage by the Rectifier. The Inverter converts this DC voltage to an AC voltage with a stable sinusoidal waveform, amplitude and frequency.
4 Control and Monitoring 4.1 Front Panel The front panel located on the upper part of the UPS informs the user about operating status, alarm conditions and measurements. It also provides access to controls and configuration parameters. Front panel shown below consists of three parts: 1.
4.1.2 Mimic Panel Mimic panel is a diagram, which shows the path of energy flow in the UPS by means of several LED’s. Definitions of LED status are shown below: LED's COLOR DEFINITION STATE Input mains voltage is OK and Rectifier is active. Steady Input mains voltage is OK and Rectifier is inactive.
4.1.3 Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and User Menu LCD provides detailed information about device status, alarms and measurements. It also enables the operator to manage the UPS. All information, commands and configuration parameters are given in a menu, which has the following structure: ALARMS MEASUREMENTS PRIORITY...
Page 19
“ALARMS” TABLE CODE NAME DEFINITION Bypass mains voltage is different than the Inverter reference signal (e.g. its BYP BADSHAPE frequency is beyond synchronization limits or it has a Total Harmonic Distortion > %10). BYP VOL HIGH Bypass mains voltage is higher than its upper limit. BYP VOL LOW Bypass mains voltage is lower higher than its lower limit.

“MEASUREMENTS” MENU MEASUREMENT DEFINITION = XXX Ratio of the actual Inverter active power to its nominal value. = XXX Output line/neutral voltage. = XXX Output line current. = XX.X Frequency of output Line/Neutral voltage. = XXX Bypass Line/Neutral voltage. = XXX,XXX,XXX Input Line/Neutral voltages.
“CONFIGURATION” MENU Shows system date in dd-mm-yyyy format (dd = day, mm = month, DATE "dd-mm-yyyy" yyyy = year). Use ENTER, UP and DOWN keys to change the date. Shows system time in hh-mm-ss format (hh = hour, mm = minutes, ss = TIME "hh:mm:ss"...
5 Operating Procedures This chapter defines the operating procedures to be followed to activate, deactivate and manage the UPS. The instructions shall be applied in the sequence in which they are written only – do not alter or miss a step – to do so may cause a fault or failure. 5.1 Commissioning Make the connections according to the “Installation”...
5.3 Switching into Manual Bypass during Operation Manual Bypass enables the user to isolate the electronic circuitry of the UPS from the mains and the load without interrupting the load operation by connecting the loads directly to the Bypass supply. This feature is useful while performing maintenance or service and shall only be executed by authorized technical service personnel.
6 Operating Procedures for Parallel System 6.1 Introduction EVO DSP TM UPS are designed according to high MTBF figures with increased reliability but in case of necessity, a second (or more) EVO DSP TT UPSs can be connected in parallel redundant configuration for supplying the very critical load to increase reliability.

Page 26
In case this communication cable is removed or damaged during parallel operation and the communication is lost, then the slave UPS which can not communicate with the master UPS and it shall disconnect its output and maintain the OFF condition. The other UPSs shall continue their normal operation.
After completing the configuration of the name of each UPS and N value, switch on the Input circuit breaker (F1), then Bypass circuit breaker (F4) (if the UPS is split Bypass version) and Inrush circuit breaker (F6) respectively on each Parallel UPS. After seeing “NORMAL”...
7 Features and Operating Limits 7.1 Mains Limits for Normal mode Frequency and RMS value of the mains input voltage has to be within acceptable limits for the UPS to operate in Normal mode. Lower limit of the voltage depends on how much the UPS is loaded and it decreases as the load decreases until it reaches 80 VAC Line-Neutral.
7.4 Overload Behavior While operating in Normal or Battery mode, the UPS can feed overloads for a limited duration which is given in the “Technical Specifications” section. After that duration, UPS automatically switches into Bypass mode, if the Bypass is enabled and frequency/waveform/RMS value of the Bypass mains voltage is within limits.
8 Communication Interfaces All related terminals are on the Communication Interface board (A1). Connector layout is as following: 8.1 RS232 Communication DSUB-9 female connector with the following pin layout shall be used on the UPS side of the connection cable. Pin layout is given below: RS232 PIN LAYOUT Pin #...
8.3 Digital Inputs (UPS OFF and GEN ON) Voltage to be applied to the digital inputs is 5 VDC. Maximum current drawn by each input is 1 mA. 5V connector provided on the Communication Interface board can be used to supply both digital inputs. Pay attention to the polarity of the voltages applied to the digital input terminals.
9 Maintenance Batteries, fans and capacitors shall be replaced at the end of their lives. Hazardous voltage and high temperature metal parts inside even if the UPS is disconnected. Contact may cause electric shock and burns. All operations except replacing Battery fuses shall be carried out by the authorized technical personnel only. Some parts inside the UPS (terminals, EMC filters and measurement circuits) are still energized during maintenance Bypass operation.
10 Troubleshooting This section gives information about the procedures which shall be performed in case of abnormal operation. If you fail to fix the problem consult authorized Technical Service with the following information: Model and serial number of the UPS, which can be found on the nameplate on the rear of the UPS.
