GENERAL FEATURES OF THE UPS UNIT
Alongside their excellent performance and reliability, the POWERLINE RT range of
UPS units offers a number of other advantages which include:
On-line real double conversion and sine wave output voltage.
Possibility of selection of high performance operation (ECO).
Scalability (extension) of autonomous operation time thanks to the ability of
connecting more battery modules to the UPS (up to 4 units - optional).
Remote Emergency Power Off (Remote EPO) functionality which interrupts
power supply from the UPS output to loads in extreme situations or in
emergency (e.g. fire).
Remote On/Off (ROO) function for remotely starting and shutting down the UPS.
Wide range of input voltage.
Users can choose to install the unit in one of the two variants: Rack or Tower.
Compact size (excellent power to size ratio).
Standard communication functions: an RS 232 communication port, a USB
communication port.
Optional extension cards provide additional communication functionalities.
The POWERLINE RT UPS systems consist of the following functional blocks:
rectifier,
inverter,
battery set,
microprocessor-based control system with measurement circuits,
automated by-pass system (static BYPASS),

Fig. 1: Simplified block diagram of the UPS unit
The series of on-line UPS units with double conversion topology provides excellent
protection of the connected receivers, e.g. IT systems, and filters interferences in the
power supply line. The AC input may be corrected depending on the wave of the
power supply voltage by a high power factor correction circuit. Thanks to PWM
control, the input voltage may take the form of clean, stable sine.
If the mains parameters are faulty, the controller will shut down the AC/DC section
and promptly start the DC/DC unit, in order to maintain the uninterrupted operation of
the DC/AC section (inverter). Once the mains parameters are back to correct values,
the DC/DC section stops and AC/DC takes over again. This way, if the UPS is on,
the receiver is always protected by the inverter, with no interruptions.
The UPS features an external bypass to provide power to receivers directly from the
mains, in case the UPS is damaged.
The UPS has a built-in battery charger that will be charging the battery if the network
parameters are acceptable, except when the unit is in the back-up mode or in the
battery test mode.
