3 Safety
3.1 General Safety Instructions
Read the manual attentively and respect the safety instructions which are
mentioned in this chapter before doing taking further steps (transport, storage,
connection, setting-up, etc.).
As UPS-systems are working with voltage and have got corresponding internal
or external energy storages (batteries with high capacity), the instructions in this
chapter are very important for all users and the whole stuff. Therefore we also
mention safety instructions for batteries and battery packs. Nevertheless you
have to respect the own instructions of external battery packs when using them.
Only authorized specialized staff is allowed to do workings on the UPS.
To ensure the safety of applications in which the UPS is going to be connected
with power supply, you have to assure that the unit is installed by a qualified
electric installation company.
The UPS disposes of an intern energy source (battery). There can be voltage
on the terminal output, if the battery should be switched-on even if there is no
AC.
Ensure that the AC output is correctly grounded.
Do not open the casing, because there are just parts which are maintenance-
free. The guarantee expires by opening the casing unauthorized.
Do not try to repair the unit by yourself. Contact your retailer or your guarantee
will expire.
Ensure that input voltage of the UPS corresponds to the supplying voltage.
Use certificated mains cords with fitting plug-ins and sockets for the
corresponding voltage supplying system.
Dusty, corrosive and saline environments can damage the UPS.
Do not install the UPS close to devices which heat excessively and in very wet
environments. Do not expose to direct sunlight.
The battery pack usually unloads itself when the system has not been used for
a longer period of time.
In case of non-use the battery pack should be loaded every 2-3 months. In
case of non-observance the guarantee expires. During the installation and
operation, the batteries reload automatically and are kept in good condition.

3.2 Transport and storage
The UPS has to be transported in its original packaging, also in case of moves
or returns.
Do not transport the unit headlong.
Protect the position during transport and pay attention to the centre of mass.
Even in case of UPS with inbuilt batteries it can happen easily that the units fall
down.
During storage also ensure a stable position.
3.3 Installation
The UPS is destined for ventilated rooms.
The installation and assembly of the UPS has to comply with the specified
installation position given by the manufacturer.
If fast temperature changes occur, it is possible that the UPS will be dewed.
Before taking further steps an acclimatization time of at least 2 hours has to be
guaranteed.
Never install the unit in a humid environment. Keep the UPS free of liquids.
Do not install the UPS close to devices which heat excessively.
Ensure that the air slots of the units and the air circulation are not blocked.
3.4 Connection
The UPS just has to be connected to a earth contact socket or in case of
terminal alignment the PE (protective earthing conductor) has to be connected.
In no circumstances the unit is allowed to operate without PE.
The socket has to be easily accessible and close to the UPS. In case of
permanent connection use short cord-lengths.
For the connection of the UPS with the socket only use a cord which is
certificated with the VDE and CE sign. In case of permanent connection use a
corresponding cord.
For the connection of the connected machines with the UPS only use a cord
which is certificated with the VDE and CE sign. In case of permanent
connection of the connected machines use a corresponding cord.
The protection of the connected machines always has to be in front of one
connected machine, never centraly in front of the UPS.
Do not connect the UPS with domestic appliances and hand tools as e.g. fan
heater, vacuum cleaner, boring machine, hardrier, toaster, etc.

UPS MH6000 Manual
MH Series
Page 10 of 51
Do not connect the UPS with machines which could overload it (e.g. laser
printer).
The sum of earth fault currents of all with the UPS connected machines should
not be higher than 3.5mA.
Keep the access lines short and always connect them correctly. Dagers as to
stumble, to squeeze, etc. have to be avoided.
3.5 Operation
During the operation of the UPS, the feeder never has to be uncoupled,
otherwise the protective grounding of the UPS and of the connected machines
would be cut.
The UPS has got an energy storage (batteries). Therefore the output can be
conducting, also if the input of the UPS is not connected.
To switch-off the UPS completely, please follow the instructions of chapter 9.7.
Keep the UPS free of liquids and foreign particles.

3.6 Application of batteries
Attention –risk of electric shocks and burns.
Batteries can cause electric shocks and have high short-circuit currents, which
also can cause burns.
Unauthorized persons should be kept away from batteries.
Keep devices which heat away from the batteries and do not throw them into
fire. Danger of explosion!
Do not open or damage the batteries. The redundant electrolyte is very
dangerous for humans and environment (danger of cauterization on skin and
eyes, toxic).
Defect batteries have to be disposed eco-friendly.
Never throw batteries into domestic waste.
Follow the local directives of disposing.
3.7 Maintenance, service and errors
Attention –risk of electric shocks.
Even after cutting the current circuit, the UPS stays connected with the batteries
and has got dangerous voltage. Before doing maintenance or service works, cut
the current circuit of the batteries and ensure that there is no voltage.
Only specialized staff with know-how about the essential safety instructions, is
allowed to do workings on the batteries and to control them.
Keep unauthorized persons away from the batteries.
For works on the UPS you have to pay attention to following instructions:
Wristwatches, rings and other things of metal have to be removed;
just use isolated hand tools;
It is not allowed to deconstruct the UPS.

4 Introduction
This manual should inform you essentially about one-phase online UPS-
systems and its functioning, the application of several functions and about what
to do in case of service disturbances. Furthermore this manual includes
applications for transport and storage as well as handling and installation of the
UPS-systems. The directives for planning in this manual, are only regarding to
the special demands of UPS-systems. Comply with the national, local
directives for electronic installation when installing the UPS. The content of this
manual can change due to developing technologies. We aimed to make the
content correct and clear. Please do not hesitate to contact us, f you discover
any errors. E.&O.E. We are not liable for any consequential damage due to
errors & omissions.
The UPS-system is created to protect sensitive electric machines for example
computers, workstations, electronic cases, critical instruments,
telecommunication stations, process control, etc. from interruptions, which can
be caused by bad current quality or power failures. Sensitive machines need a
good protection from interruptions. Those interruptions can have external
causes (as storms, breakdowns) or interruptions caused by close-standing
machines (as motors, air conditioning, machine tools, welding tools, and
others). Those interruptions can be summarized as follows:
Fast and slow circuit voltage peaks, current fluctuations;
Power failures;
Fast and slow frequency peaks, frequency fluctuations;
overload or transients
The UPS conditions the circuit voltage and ensures that the voltage values at
the output to the connected charge, remain constant. Therefore circuit
interruptions cannot reach critical instruments and so they cannot make
damages on software, hardware or cause data losses or breakdowns.

5 System description
The UPS is in a non-stop service with double conversion mode. It conditions
the current circuit and supplies an uninterruptible, undisturbed and one-phase
voltage for critical machines. During supplying the connected machines, it
keeps its internal batteries in a charged condition. In case of a power failure or
a power disturbance, the UPS supplies also uninterrupted and clean voltage at
its output. During battery service, the energy comes from the batteries.
Fig. 1:
block drawing
MH series
This block drawing shows the particular modules and their interactions.
If the power failure goes longer than the autonomy time of the UPS, it
switches-off automatically to avoid total discharge of the batteries. When the
circuit voltage returns, the UPS switches-on automatically, supplies the
connected machines and controls the load of the batteries.
Special features of the MH Online UPS are:
No interruptions or signal-changes in case of breakdown of the primary
circuit supply;
Perfect sinus voltage at the output of the UPS. Much better quality of the
output voltage compared to the voltage of the in-house network;
Bypass with process control;
„Power factor“correction at the input (>0.95);
High efficiency factor of the inverter >90% DC / AC;
efficient communication interface (RS232- Interface)
