CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
The AvayaZRS9 uninterruptible power system (UPS) is a modular UPS
that contains battery modules and power control modules (referred to as
power modules). These modules plug into a rack cabinet structure
containing additional control, communication, and display functions
that enable integrated control of all power modules. The UPS is housed
in a single cabinet, with extra battery capacity housed in auxiliary
battery cabinets.
Power Modules
The pluggable power modules can be removed and replaced
(hot-swapped) without powering the UPS down if the UPS has sufficient
redundant capacity. Battery modules may also be hot-swapped for
maintenance. Power control circuitry in the cabinet senses problems in
power modules, and automatically transfers control and load to the
remaining power modules.
All power modules share the load requirements equally. For example,
three power modules are capable of supplying a total of 9 kVA. If a load
requires only 4.5 kVA, each power module supplies 1.5 kVA to the
output. If one power module is removed or for some reason fails, each of
the two remaining power modules would supply half of the load, or
2.25 kVA. In other words, redundancy exists when the load can be
supplied by less than all of the installed power modules.
Battery Configurations
The Avaya RS9 UPS has two different options for additional battery
configurations:
:External Battery Module Cabinet (EBMC) - this cabinet is recommended
for applications that require less than two hours of run time. One
EBMC can be connected to the UPS.
:120 Vdc Extended Battery Cabinet (EBC120) - this cabinet is recommended
for applications that require more than two hours of run time. Up to
14 EBC120s can be connected to the UPS.

Battery Charger Modules
NOTE One battery charger module is required for every five EBC120s. A 12-slot
cabinet with 37 battery strings also requires one battery charger module.
The optional battery charger module is designed to provide additional
current for faster recharging of UPS battery modules in systems with
many batteries. It is capable of providing up to 20 amperes of current for
optimum charging, based upon the condition and number of batteries in
the system.
The battery charger module is similar in appearance to a power module.
The primary difference is the light-purple colored front label. It can be
plugged into any UPS cabinet slot above the battery modules.
The battery charger module operates in automatic modes within the UPS
cabinet under control of the UPS power modules. It communicates
through a controller area network (CAN) bus with the power modules.
The power modules monitor and control the battery charger. Alarm
conditions detected by the battery charger module are logged and
announced by the UPS system (refer to the UPS user’s guide). Normal
output voltage is 133 Vdc.
Safety Warnings
Read the following precautions before you install the UPS.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important instructions that you
should follow during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries. Please
read all instructions before operating the equipment and save this manual for future
reference.
CAUTION
:A maximum of seven power and/or battery charger modules can be installed in the
system.
:Battery modules used in the Avaya RS9 system weigh 30 lb (14 kg). Use care in
lifting and moving battery modules.
:All input and output wiring must be copper and adequate to carrying currents as
listed in Table 8 on page 48.

:Torque all bolts holding input and output power conductors to values specified in
Table 2 on page 12.
:The user is required to provide power input and output disconnect devices for the
UPS. These must be within sight of the UPS and easily accessible.
