All rights reserved. All trademark are property of their respective owners. TECNOWARE s.r.l. www.service.tecnoware.com This manual has been printed and edited by TECNOWARE s.r.l.
Read this manual carefully and completely before installing and using the TECNOWARE EVO TM Uninterruptible Power Supply, which, from here after, will also be referred to as UPS. The UPS must be used only by properly trained personnel. To ensure correct and safe operations, it is necessary that operators and maintenance personnel observe the general safety Standards as well as the specific instructions included in this manual.
EVO TM is constantly being developed and improved: consequently, your unit may differ somewhat from the description contained in this manual. This manual includes the follows models of the EVO TM series: • EVO TM 10.0 • EVO TM 6.0 • EVO TM 12.0 • EVO TM 8.0 • EVO TM 15.0 In this manual, which covers all 5 models, EVO TM will simply be referred to as UPS.
3. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS UPS EVO TM has all the modern features which guarantee maximum reliability and safety: Double-Conversion ON-LINE technology Sinusoidal wave generated by an IGBT INVERTER Output voltage regulation ±1% Protection from overload and short circuits Automatic BYPASS to protect from accidental overload or Inverter fault Start-up even under MAINS OFF conditions Automatic protection when battery is low Automatic restart, following an automatic shut-down due to low battery, once AC...
4. RECEIPT AND SITE SELECTION Carefully remove the UPS from its packaging, and carry out a meticulous inspection. We recommend keeping the original packaging in case you need to send the UPS for maintenance purposes. In case of transport damage, notify the carrier and dealer immediately. We recommend keeping the original packaging in a secure place, in case you need to ship the UPS for maintenance purposes.
BATTERY MODE During operation in the LINE MODE, if the UPS finds the MAINS OFF condition (due to a blackout or overvoltage/brownout), it then switches into BATTERY mode. In this case, the batteries supplies the required output power thanks to the DC/AC conversion carried out by the INVERTER.

EPO (EMERGENCY POWER OFF) REMOTE EPO SWITCH The EVO TM models have the EPO, Emergency Power OFF, ( connector on the rear see figure 4), side. This permits to immediately switch the UPS OFF from a distance in case of emergency. To use an external switch to activate EPO function it is sufficient to connect the switch to the EPO terminal as described in the above figure.

DRY CONTACTS BOARD (OPTIONAL) Com. Fault AC fail Bypass Low Bat Com. The Dry Contacts board has a 10 pin connector on the rear side of the UPS. 1. Common Pin 1 and Pin 10 are common pins. 2. Fault Pin 2 is the normal-open output: when UPS works normally, Pin 2 and Pin 1-10 will be open, when UPS is failed, Pin 2 and Pin 1-10 will be closed.
7. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION WARNING The electric installation, has to be done by qualified personnel. Follow all the Safety Standards (CEI Standards in Italy) for the IN/OUT connections and for the right section of IN/OUT cables. We recommend to use a dedicated AC input/output power Line for the UPS.

The instructions below describe the operations to connect in right way the UPS to a BATTERY BOX supplied by Tecnoware. We suggest to use only BATTERY BOX supplied by TECNOWARE. TECNOWARE declines any responsibilities if this rule is not followed.
There are no internal parts in the UPS which are user serviceable. Any repair or maintenance work must be performed exclusively by qualified technical personnel authorized by TECNOWARE. TECNOWARE declines any responsibility if this warning is disregarded. Disregard for these warnings may lead to a risk of electric shock to operators 8.
9. FUNCTIONING TURNING ON AND OFF UPS EVO TM is equipped with a main switch placed on the rear (see figure 4). If this switch is in OFF position than UPS is completely OFF; else UPS is ON in one of the three functioning modes (LINE mode, BATTERY mode, BYPASS mode).
LOAD TESTING UPS EVO TM indicates the output power percentage (respect to the nominal value) by the LCD display, visualizing it on the second row of the display. UPS EVO TM has the capability to accept an overload less than 110% for an indefinite time. An overload between 110% and 150% (indicate by an intermittent acoustic alarm and OVERLOAD led flashing) respect to the nominal value, is accepted for about 20 seconds and after UPS switches automatically to the BYPASS mode.

12. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CORRECT USE UPS CLEANING WARNING Before any cleaning operation, make sure that the main switch (see figure 4) of the UPS is OFF and that mains input power has been removed. Use only a cloth dampened with water to clean the unit. If UPS works in an environmental unusually dusty or dirty, remove the dirty from the ventilation holes.
PROTECTION OF POWERED DEVICES The UPS assure continuos adjusted and jammed alimentation only if it is NOT functioning in BYPASS mode. In this mode the INVERTER is off and at the output there is only the voltage that is present at the input by the AUTOMATIC BYPASS To light powered devices by the UPS make following operations: If UPS EVO TM is in BYPASS mode press ON button on frontal panel and wait the •...
13. TROUBLESHOOTING Following are described some functioning anomalies and relating solutions: UPS doesn’t lights on without giving any information Check if main switch on the rear is in ON position. • UPS continues to function in BATTERY mode also if AC input line is present at the input Make sure that is present AC input line at the input of the UPS and that AC input line •...
