Warranty and Safety Conditions

3.3 Installation
 This product is intended to be installed only in restricted access areas as defined by UL60950 and in accordance with the
National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or equivalent agencies.
 The Inverter System may contain output over current protection in the form of circuit breakers. In addition to these circuit
breakers, the user must observe the recommended UL listed upstream and downstream circuit breaker requirements as
defined in this manual.
 Please use extreme caution when accessing circuits that may be at hazardous voltages or energy levels.
 The modular inverter rack is a dual input power supply. The complete system shall be wired in a way that both input and
output leads can be made power free.
 REG systems and EPC systems that have no AC input wired and connected can be seen as independent power sources. To
comply with local and international safety standards N (output) and PE shall be bonded. The bonded connection between
N (output) and PE must be removed once the AC input is connected.
 AC and DC circuits shall be terminated with no voltage / power applied.
 The safety standard IEC/EN62040-1-1 requires that, in the event of an output short circuit, the inverter must disconnect in
5 seconds maximum. The parameter can be adjusted on T2S; however, if the parameter is set at a value > 5 seconds, an
external protection must be provided so that the short circuit protection operates within 5 seconds.
Default setting is 60 seconds.
 The system is designed for installation within an IP20 or IP21 environment. When installed in a dusty or humid
environment, appropriate measures (air filtering …) must be taken.
3.3.1 Handling
 The cabinet shall not be lifted using lifting eyes.
 Remove weight from the cabinet by unplugging the inverters. Mark inverters clearly with shelf and position for correct
rebuild. This is especially important in dual or three phase configurations.
 Empty inverter positions must not be left open. Replace with module or cover.
3.3.2 Surge and transients
The mains (AC) supply of the modular inverter system shall be fitted with Lightning surge suppression and Transient voltage surge
suppression suitable for the application at hand. Manufacturer’s recommendations of installation shall be adhered to. Selecting a
device with an alarm relay for function failure is advised.
Indoor sites are considered to have a working lightning surge suppression device in service.
 Indoor sites Min Class II.
 Outdoor sites Min Class I + Class II or combined Class I+II. The modular inverter system/rack can reach hazardous
leakage currents. Earthing must be carried out prior to energizing the system. Earthing shall be made according to local
regulations.
3.3.3 Other
 Isolation test (Hi-Pot) must not be performed without instructions from the manufacturer.
9 – TSI Media 230 Vac– User manual – v7.3
Warranty and Safety Conditions

3.4 Maintenance
 The modular inverter system/rack can reach hazardous leakage currents. Earthing must be carried out prior to energizing
the system. Earthing shall be made according to local regulations.
 Prior to any work conducted on a system/unit make sure that AC input voltage and DC input voltage are disconnected.
 Inverter modules and shelves contain capacitors for filtering and energy storage. Prior to accessing the system/modules
after power down, wait at least 5 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge.
 Some components and terminals carry high voltage during operation. Contact may result in fatal injury.
3.5 Replacement and Dismantling
 ESD Strap must be worn when handling PCBs and open units.
 CE+T cannot be held responsible for disposal of the Inverter system and therefore the customer must segregate and
dispose of the materials which are potentially harmful to the environment, in accordance with the local regulations in force
in the country of installation.
 If the equipment is dismantled, to dispose of its component products, you must comply with the local regulations in force
in the country of destination and in any case avoid causing any kind of pollution.

TSI TECHNOLOGY
4. TSI TECHNOLOGY 1
Inverter modules carrying the TSI logo and the EPC mark are triple port converters (AC in, DC in, AC out). Sinusoidal output is
converted from Mains or/and DC.

Local Signaling
The module is built around the following sub-converters
 AC to DC at input
 DC to DC at input
 DC to AC at output
The energy can flow either from the AC source or the DC source under the control of the local DSP controller. Thanks to internal
energy buffering, the output sine wave is constant and disturbance free regardless of the active source.
The BOOST functionality multiples the nominal current for a period of 20 ms (max) in the event of downstream failures. The
upstream breakers do not have to be oversized to prevent tripping. The overload capacity is 150% for 15 seconds.
The TSI works according to True Redundant Structure (TRS) that features decentralized and independent logic, redundant
communication bus and three internal levels of disconnection to isolate a module after internal failure.
This functionality is included in every inverter module. Running them in parallel provides a modular system with, no single point of
failure, always-conditioned output, high system efficiency and 0 ms source transfer time.
1 Information and data given in this chapter is intended to serve as an overview of the TSI Technology. Detailed features and parameters for each individual
module type in the range may differ and should be referred to in the dedicated data sheet.

12 – TSI Media 230 Vac– User manual – v7.3
TSI TECHNOLOGY
4.1 On-line Mode
DC is the primary source of supply whilst Mains (AC) works as the secondary source. Switching time between DC input and
AC input is 0 ms (source transfer). The power delivered by the DC source (usually a battery, but possibly any other type of DC
generator) is converted to provide regulated and transient-free power to the load. In the event of a short circuit on the load side,
the boost is automatic, timely and energized for a specific duration to trip downstream protective devices.
4.2 Safe mode
Safe mode uses DC as the primary source of supply while Mains (AC) is on standby.
Mains (AC) is normally disconnected through an internal inlet relay and is only connected when down stream clearance is required
(boost) or if DC is unavailable.
The transfer between DC and AC results in a typical transfer time of 10 ms.
Typically the safe mode is used in extremely harsh environments such as railways. Under such conditions, it provides extra
isolation against mains-borne disturbances.
4.3 EPC-mode
Mains input (AC) is the primary source whilst DC works as backup.
The TSI is designed to operate on Mains on a permanent basis and to deliver output voltage conditioned with low THD.
The output sine wave is physically independent of whether the source is AC (or) DC. If the Mains is out of tolerance or goes down,
the converter seamlessly switches to DC and the converter operates in “Back-up mode” (Changeover switching time is 0 ms).
As soon as the Mains returns to its valid range, the EPC mode is automatically resumed.
The EPC mode offers higher efficiency (up to 96% depending on the model) without compromising the purity of the output sine
wave.
Remarks: REG modules:
Inverter modules carrying the TSI logo together with the REG mark work only with DC input. Sinusoidal output is converted from
DC with the module operating as a traditional inverter. EPC mode and the boost are not available with REG modules.
4.4 Mix mode & Walk-in mode
Under some circumstances the DC and AC sources can be combined. The sequence is defined by a user selectable set of
parameters. Start, control and exit are fully automatic.
A specific example of Mix-mode is the Walk-in mode where the transfer from DC source to AC source is ramped up within a fixed
and adjustable period of time.
