3 Safety
3.1 General safety instructions
Read and observe the user manual and safety instructions in this chapter before
taking any further action (transportation, storage, connection, startup etc.).
Since the UPS equipment uses mains voltage and has a suitable energy
accumulator (high-capacity batteries) installed either inside or outside the
device, the instructions in this chapter are very important for all users and
personnel. For this reason, appropriate safety instructions on the topic of
batteries and battery packs are also dealt with here. When using external battery
packs, you must also follow the safety instructions in the accompanying
instruction manual.
Work on the UPS equipment may only be performed by authorised technical
personnel.
3.2 Transportation and storage
The UPS may only be transported to its place of intended use in the original
packaging. The same applies for removals or returns.
The equipment must not be transported or stored upside down.
Position the equipment securely during transportation taking its centre of
gravity into account. Due to its weight, UPS equipment with integrated batteries
may drop suddenly if its position shifts slightly.
When storing equipment, make sure that it is also securely positioned.
3.3 Setup
The UPS is intended for use in ventilated rooms.
During setup or installation, the installation location prescribed by the
manufacturer must be observed.
There is a risk of condensation where the UPS is exposed to extreme and
rapid temperature changes. Before taking any further steps, the equipment
should be allowed to acclimatise for at least 2 hours.
Never set up or operate the equipment in a damp environment.
Keep fluids away from the equipment.
The UPS must not be set up near heat sources.

USV MT3200 Instruction manual
MT Series Page 8 of 36
Ensure that the vents of the equipment are not blocked and that the circulation
of air is not impeded.
3.4 Connection
Only connect the UPS to an earthed shock-proof socket or, where a terminal
clamp is used, be sure to connect the protective earth conductor. Under no
circumstances should the equipment be operated without a protective earth
conductor.
If an external bypass switch is used with the equipment, the connection
instructions provided in the manual for the bypass switch are to be observed.
The house installation socket must be easily accessible and located in the
vicinity of the UPS. In the case of a fixed connection, ensure that the shortest
possible cable lengths are used.
Only a VDE-tested and CE-labelled mains cable may be used to connect the
UPS to the house installation socket. In the case of a fixed connection, a
suitable cable must be used.
Only use VDE-tested and CE-labelled electrical cables to connect the
consumer load to the UPS. In the case of a fixed connection to the consumer
load, a suitable cable must be used.
The fuse protection for the consumer load must always be installed directly in
front of it, and never centrally in front of the UPS.
Do not operate any household appliances and power tools, e.g. fan heaters,
vacuum cleaners, drills, hairdryers, toasters etc., via the UPS.
Do not connect any consumer loads to the UPS which could overload the
equipment (e.g. laser printers).
The sum of the earth fault currents of all consumer loads connected to the UPS
must not exceed 3.5mA.
Keep the connecting cables as short as possible and always lay these
correctly. Avoid the dangers of laying connecting cables in locations where
they may be tripped over, crushed or torn open etc.
3.5 Operation
The mains power cable must never be disconnected during the operation of
the UPS, otherwise the protective earthing of the UPS and the connected
consumer loads will be lost.
The UPS equipment contains an energy accumulator (batteries). This means
that the output of the UPS may be live even if it is not connected on the line
side.
To switch off the UPS completely, first press the switch on the front of the
equipment (OFF position), wait until the UPS has switched off then disconnect

USV MT3200 Instruction manual
MT Series Page 9 of 36
the power supply (switch off the mains input externally or disconnect the UPS
from the mains, e.g. by unplugging it).
Make sure that no fluids or foreign bodies enter the UPS.
3.6 Handling batteries
Warning – danger of electric shocks and burns.
Batteries can cause electric shocks and are capable of producing high short-
circuit currents which can also inflict burns.
Unauthorised persons must be kept away from batteries.
Do not place batteries against heat sources and do not throw them into a fire as
they might explode!
Do not open or destroy batteries. The electro
lyte thereby released is extremely
dangerous to persons and to the environment (danger of chemical burns to skin
and eyes, toxic).
Defective batteries must be disposed of in an environmentally
-
friendly manner.
Never throw batteries into the regular refuse.
The local waste disposal regulations must be observed.
3.7 Maintenance, servicing and faults
Warning – danger of electric shocks.
The UPS remains connected to the battery circuit even after it has been
disconnected from the mains power supply and has a dangerous voltage
potential. Therefore always disconnect the battery circuit before carrying out
servicing or maintenance work and make sure that the equipment is isolated
from the supply.
Work on batteries may only be performed and monitored by personnel with
appropriate technical knowledge about the required precautions.
Unauthorised persons must be kept away from batteries.
When working on the UPS, the following precautions must be taken:
oRemove wristwatches, rings and other metallic objects
oOnly use electrically-insulated tools
The UPS must not be dismantled.

4 Introduction
This manual is intended to provide basic information about single-phase offline
UPS equipment, namely the functional principle, use of the various functions
and the procedure to follow in the event of faults. In addition, this manual
contains information on transportation and storage as well as handling and
installation of the UPS equipment.
The planning guidelines in this manual relate only to the specific requirements
for UPS equipment. The national and local regulations for electrical
installations must be followed without fail during installation.
The contents of the description for this equipment may change as a result of
technological developments. Though we have endeavoured to make these
contents as accurate and clear as possible, we would be grateful for
information on any errors which are noted.
We accept no liability for errors in this description or their consequences.
The purpose of UPS equipment (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is to protect
sensitive electrical devices such as computers, workstations, electronic points
of sale, mission-critical instruments, telecommunications equipment, process
controls etc. from faults which may arise as a result of poor power supply
quality or even power failures. Sensitive devices such as these require
comprehensive protection against electrical faults. These may be external
faults (e.g. bad weather, operating faults) or faults caused by adjacent devices
(e.g. motors, air conditioning units, processing machines, welding equipment
etc.). The power supply faults may be summarised as follows:
oFast and slow line-voltage spikes and fluctuations;
oMains power failure;
oFast and slow frequency spikes and fluctuations;
oMains heterodyning or transient voltages.
The UPS equipment monitors the power supply parameters described above
using suitable countermeasures to protect the connected users (e.g.
changeover to support operation in the event of temporary over- or under-
voltage to protect the end devices).

USV MT3200 Instruction manual
MT Series Page 11 of 36
5 System description
The UPS supplies an uninterrupted, single-phase voltage to users with
mission-critical applications. In addition to supplying consumer loads, the
equipment also keeps its internal batteries in a fully charged state. In the event
of a power failure or power fault (e.g. voltage fluctuation), the UPS continues,
without interruption, to deliver a clean voltage supply to the UPS output. In
support mode, the energy is drawn from the battery pack.
Fig. 1:
Block diagram
MT series
The block circuit diagram shows the individual modules of the equipment and
provides a general impression of how they interact.
If the mains power failure exceeds the bridging time of the UPS, it shuts down
to prevent deep discharging of the batteries. When the mains power supply is
restored, the UPS restarts automatically, supplies the consumer loads and
controls the charging of the battery pack.
Outstanding performance characteristics of the RMT series are:
oShort changeover time to support operation in the event of primary
mains supply failure.
oGenuine sine voltage from UPS output, low distortion factor;
oHigh-performance communications interface (RS232 interface);

MT Series Page 13 of 36
UPS “ON/OFF” switch:
This is used to switch the UPS on and off.
Providing the mains supply is still switched on, the charger also remains active
once the UPS has been switched off.
UPS “TEST” button (dual function):
When this button is pressed, the UPS changes from mains to support mode for
approximately 10 seconds. This is a means of checking the function of the
system and the batteries. If the UPS is already in support mode, the acoustic
warning signal can be cancelled manually by pressing this switch (approx. 2
seconds) until the “Battery low” status is determined.
6.1.2 Display elements of the UPS
Generally, all indicator elements are only active when the UPS is switched on
(main switch in “ON” position).
Line mode:
The UPS is operating using mains power. If the mains voltage tolerances
have been exceeded or if the mains fails completely, this indicator goes out
immediately. The same applies if a fuse at the mains input is disabled.
The display flashes if mains voltage is present but the equipment is switched
off.
Battery mode:
Support mode is active. The input mains power is not available or is outside
the tolerances. The energy required to continue supplying the UPS output is
drawn from the battery pack.
A.V.R. mode:
If an under- or over-voltage on the supply network is detected, the equipment
switches to A.V.R. mode. To protect the users, the output voltage is reduced
by 13% (“Buck” for over-voltage) or increased (“Boost” for under-voltage). The
equipment continues to operate using mains power.
Battery low display:
Warning limit of the battery pack.
The LED indicates whether the remaining battery capacity has fallen below a
fixed specified level during support mode. In on-line mode (charging of battery
pack), the LED goes out once a sufficient charge level has been reached.
When “Battery low” is displayed in support mode, this is the latest point at
which action must be taken to deal with the load through controlled shutdown
of equipment. The support time which remains once this indicator comes on
may be shorter than anticipated depending on the condition of the batteries
(age and/or temperature).

USV MT3200 Instruction manual
MT Series Page 14 of 36
Fault mode:
Operating fault in the UPS.
The indicator light goes on if an operating fault exists in the UPS or if a short-
circuit develops at the UPS output.
Load level:
Load status of UPS.
The display bar indicates the loading at the UPS output. If no load exists, the
indicator bar goes out completely. As the load increases, the bar lights up
starting at the bottom and moving up in 20, 50, 100% steps. If the red
indicator light also comes on, then the UPS is overloaded (“OVERLOAD”).
6.2 Equipment elements on the rear panel
Fig. 4:
Rear-panel view
MT3200
Danger!
All plug connections on the rear panel (with the exception of the communication
interface) are on the mains power potential when connected.
Even when disconnected, dangerously high voltages may be present at the
plug connections as a result of charged capacities inside the equipment.
Mains power input IEC 16A power plug for mains voltage.
The protective earth conductor must always be connected!
Please always observe the input voltage shown on the identification label or in
the technical data of this manual.
Safety cutout for mains input:
The safety cutout is triggered in the event of high overcurrents or an equipment
defect (e.g. internal short-circuit) and the device is immediately disconnected
from the connected mains power supply.
To simulate a power failure, simply pull out the power supply connector plug.

USV MT3200 Instruction manual
MT Series Page 15 of 36
If all of the connections of the UPS already exist and the safety cutout is
switched on, the charging unit is automatically active, i.e. the internal battery
pack is already charged, without the UPS being started.
c) UPS output Double socket (KG) in 2 groups of 2 pcs.
Two double sockets are protected by one safety cutout.
The protective earth conductor must always be connected!
Please always observe the max. possible power output of the equipment
indicated on the identification label or in the technical data of this manual.
e) Communication
(9-pin D-Sub jack) Via the serial interface (RS232), all of the relevant UPS data are transmitted to an appropriate primary control
unit (e.g. PC). In addition, a defined shutdown signal can
be sent to the UPS. Suitable software packages are
available for this (see Software chapter).
In addition, the interface with the “mains power failure”
and “low battery” contact signals (LAN) is assigned in
such a way that these signals are available directly for
processing.

8 Installing and connecting the UPS
All requirements in the technical data regarding environmental and operating
conditions must be observed to ensure trouble-free functioning of the UPS.
The following must be observed when setting up / installing the UPS
equipment:
oAvoid extremes of temperature and atmospheric humidity. A maximum
service life, particularly in relation to the batteries, is achieved at an
ambient temperature of 15-25°C.
oAlways ensure that sufficient space is available behind the UPS to
make the necessary connections and, as the UPS is heavy, use
suitable guide rails during installation. The load-bearing capacity of the
support must be sufficient.
oObserve the specified installation location and only mount the
equipment using the screw-in positions shown.
oMake sure that ventilation of the equipment is possible at all times. As
this UPS is ventilated in a crosswise and lengthwise direction, a
minimum clearance of at least 50mm between the UPS and the cabinet
in which it is installed must be maintained at the sides as well as at the
front and back. Ensure an appropriate flow channel.
oMake sure the equipment is arranged correctly. When installed in
parent systems (e.g. machine, control cabinet), it must be ensured that
the UPS operates within the specified temperature range. A sufficient
level of forced ventilation must exist to remove excess heat that builds
up in the space where the UPS is installed.
