    SECTION 2 INSTALLATION Introduction The Elgar Model GUPS 2400A-107 has been aligned, calibrated, and tested prior to shipment. The instrument is ready for immediate use upon receipt. However, the following checks should be made to ensure that the instrument was not damaged during shipment. CAUTION! The GUPS 2400A-107 weighs 75 pounds (34 kg) without the battery pack.

  • Page 12: Installation

    Installation When returning the instrument to Elgar, suitable shipping containers and packing material must be used. If the instrument needs to be shipped and proper packing material is not available, contact Elgar to provide containers and shipping instructions. Installation The Model GUPS 2400A-107 is 7" (178 mm) high and is designed to be installed in a standard 19"...

  • Page 16: Wire Gauge Selection

    Installation Wire Gauge Selection The following guidelines assist in determining the optimum cable specification for the user's power applications. These guidelines are equally applicable to both DC and low frequency AC (up to 450 Hz) power cabling. The same engineering rules apply whether going into or out of an electrical device.
  • Page 17 Installation The following notes apply to Table 2–2 and to the power cable definition: 1. The above figures are based upon insulated copper conductors at 25°C (77°F), two current carrying conductors in the cable plus a safety (chassis) ground. Columns 3 and 4 refer to "one way" ohms and IR drop of current carrying conductors (e.g., a 50-foot cable contains 100 feet of current carrying conductor).
  • Page 18 Installation 5. Derate the above wire gauge (use a heavier gauge) for an increased number of current carrying conductors. This offsets the thermal rise of bundled conductors. Number of Current Conductors Capability 3 to 6 Above 6 6. The preferred insulation material is application dependent. Elgar recommends any flame retardant, heat resistant, moisture resistant thermoplastic insulation rated to a nominal 75°C (167°F).

    SECTION 3 OPERATION Introduction This section provides detailed information on the controls and indicators, input/output connections, start-up and shutdown sequences, battery operation, and the RS-232 data communications port. Control and Indicator Panel All controls and indicators for the GUPS 2400A-107 are located on the front panel of the unit. There are no operator adjustments inside the unit.

  • Page 20: Figure 3-1. Gups 2400A-107 Control And Indicator Panel

    Operation TEMP A two-color LED that indicates an over-temperature condition within the GUPS. The LED is green under normal operating conditions and red when an over-temperature shutdown occurs. TEST A two-color LED that indicates the results of the internal self-test. The LED blinks while a self- test is in progress.

  • Page 21: Pushbutton Switches

    Operation 3.2.2 Pushbutton Switches OUTPUT ON A momentary pushbutton switch on the front panel that alternately turns the output power on and off. TEST A momentary push button switch on the front panel that initiates the internal self-test. ALARM SILENCE A momentary pushbutton switch on the front panel that silences the audible alarm.

  • Page 22: Connectors

    Operation If SHUTDOWN is asserted while the AC input is not present and the inverter is running from the battery, the output relay will open and output power will be turned off; the inverter and control circuits will also be shut down. After shutdown, the OUTPUT ON switch must be manually toggled to turn the output back on.

  • Page 23: Start-Up And Shutdown Sequences

    Operation Start-Up and Shutdown Sequences To run the GUPS 2400A-107 from an AC input, perform the following steps: Turn on the AC input circuit breaker located on the front panel. Wait approximately 10 seconds for completion of the start-up routines. During this time, the GUPS performs a self-test to assure proper functionality, and the rectifier undergoes a soft-start so that current surges on the AC input are prevented.

  • Page 24: Battery Care And Handling

    Operation To turn OFF the output, press the OUTPUT ON switch again; the switch has a alternating ON/OFF action. The unit will shut down (with no AC input present); the inverter and all control circuits will turn off. 3.8.1 Battery Care and Handling The battery used in the GUPS 2400A-107 requires proper storage and recharging to maintain reliability.

  • Page 25: Rs-232 Data Communications Port

    Operation RS-232 Data Communications Port The RS-232 data communications port provides an interface between a data terminal (or a computer emulating a data terminal) and the GUPS 2400A-107.
