Page 11: Theory Of Operation
1. INTRODUCTION Theory of Operation The XP Series Uninterruptible Power Supply consists of an XM Series power module, a pole or ground-mount enclosure, and a set of gelled electrolyte, no maintenance batter- ies. The power module contains a ferroresonant transformer, resonant capacitor, dual- mode temperature-compensated battery charger, DC to AC converter (inverter), transfer / isolation relay, and a main circuit module assembly containing the logic circuit. -
Page 12: Inverter (Standby) Operation
1. INTRODUCTION Theory of Operation, continued 1.2.2 Inverter (STANDBY) Operation When the incoming AC line voltage drops significantly, or a complete power outage occurs, the control logic’s line monitor activates STANDBY operation. The battery pow- ered inverter comes on-line (in-phase with the failing AC line) as the transfer / isolation relay switches to prevent AC power from back-feeding to the utility. -

Page 19: Output Current Display
2. FRONT PANEL Output Current Display The amount of current from the power supply to the load is indicated by the "OUTPUT CURRENT" display. The LED display is useful for determining the overall status of the load. When there is no load connected, the LEDs on the display will be OFF. In situations where LEDs light above the rated output of the power supply, such as 18 or 20 Amps, an overload or short circuit condition exists in the load. -

2. FRONT PANEL Standby Data Display (SDD) The optional, dual-function LED "STANDBY DATA" display is used to keep track of accumulated inverter run time, and to record the number of standby events that have occurred. The "ELAPSED TIME" clock is activated only when the power supply is in inverter mode. - Page 21 2.

Page 46: Operation
7. OPERATION OPERATION XM Power Module Start-up and Testing Once connections have been made to the power module, it should be tested for AC LINE and STANDBY operation before placing it into service. Note: The power module should always be started from utility AC (not batteries). This is because high inrush currents, associated with the start-up of ferroresonant transformers, could place unneces- sary stress on the batteries. -

Page 50: Power Module Shutdown
7. OPERATION Power Module Shutdown When a power module needs to be removed from service, an Alpha APP60-S Service Power Supply is recommended as an alternate non-standby power source to prevent interruption to the cable plant. Note: When powering down a module, always switch the battery breaker OFF before removing AC, otherwise the module will transfer into inverter operation. -
Page 51: Maintenance
Inverter Events, Accumulated Inverter Run Time, Technician ID Number, Power Supply Address, Test Date and Time, can be retrieved and stored in the DataLogger. XM Series Power Module Alpha Technologies "DataLogger" records vital power supply data directly from the side of the power module. -
Page 52: Check Battery Terminals And Connecting Wires
Since batteries behave differently in the winter than they do in the summer, Alpha logic cards automatically compensate for changes in temperature by adjusting float and equalize charge voltages. -
Page 53: Check Battery Voltage Under Load
8. MAINTENANCE Check Battery Voltage Under Load This is the most accurate method to determine the condition of the batteries. CAUTION: Weak or severely discharged batteries can explode when put under load. As an added safety precaution, place the enclosure's door between the technician and batteries before attempting inverter operation. -
Page 54: Apm Manual Self-Test
Do not over-tighten semiconductor mounting hardware. 5. If the module is equipped with a SDD (Standby Data Display), check the lithium battery, located on the front of the main board, and replace if necessary. Use Alpha #185-003-10, (3VDC). 6. Re-install the Main Circuit Module assembly and test the unit for proper operation (See section 7.1). -
Page 55: Trouble-Shooting And Repair
Repair Instructions On units returned to Alpha Technologies for repair, a Return Material Authorization (RMA) should first be obtained from Alpha's Customer Service Department. The RMA should be clearly marked on the unit’s original shipping container.
