ST3 6-10kVA Service Manual Rev.1 4. Final testing Step 3. If the UPS re-start normally, check the DC_BUS and output voltage. - For 6/10kVA, DC_BUS: +340~350 and -340~350VDC, deviation between negative and positive voltage should be within 10VDC. Output Voltage: 220/230/240 +/-2% DC-BUS Voltage: Positive DC_BUS: + 340~350VDC DC-BUS Voltage: Negative...

Connect with AC power source, then follow the step3 and step4 to check the DC_BUS and output voltage again. Also, the charger voltage need to be confirmed, the charger voltage should be 274VDC +/-1%. If UPS fails to start up for several times, there must be some defective components exist.
