-CAUTION: Never dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
-CAUTION: Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be
toxic. If exposed to electrolyte, wash immediately with plenty of water.
- Avoid charging in a sealed container.
-CAUTION: A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. The following
precautions should be observed when working on batteries:
•Remove watches, rings or other metal objects.
•Use tools with insulated handles.
•Wear rubber gloves and boots.
•Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
•Disconnect charging source prior ro connecting or disconnect battery terminals.
•Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source of ground.
Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock
will be reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance.
More than ever before, today's advanced electronic equipment, with complex integrated circuits and other sensitive
electronics, needs a stable and continuous AC power supply to operate correctly. While the power coming from the
wall outlet is often unreliable, a GE Digital Energy LanPro®-U UPS provides the security of completely
uninterrupted power.
A compact, truly on-line system, the GE Digital Energy LanPro®-U UPS protects your equipment from all forms of
power interference, including complete power failure. A simple and elegant circuit design, together with extensive
protection against abnormal operating conditions (e.g. overload, short circuit, overheating), makes the LanPro®-U
exceptionally reliable.
The LanPro®-U UPS offers complete galvanic isolation of input and output, also when operating in bypass mode. As
a result, input and output voltages do not necessarily have to be equal, making the UPS suitable for almost every
situation.
All units are standard equipped with a backfeed protection relay.

3.1 The Principles of Operation
The LanPro®-U UPS stores electric energy in batteries. This allows the UPS to supply output power even when the
incoming utility power is cut off completely.
Energy is stored as Direct Current (DC), while input and output energy must be Alternating Current (AC). Therefore
the UPS contains an input converter (AC to DC) and an output converter (DC to AC). (fig.2)
3.2 Normal Conditions
Under normal conditions, energy from the utility is channelled through the input converter, which supplies the output
converter and the battery charger. The batteries are kept in a fully charged state, and the output converter
synthesizes a completely new AC output sine wave to supply the load (electrical equipment).
3.3 Utility Failure
In the event of a utility power failure (i.e. absent or outside tolerance) the system uses the energy reserve stored in
the battery to continue to produce AC power, ensuring unbroken output (fig. 3). No interruption or alteration will ever
be noticed in the output power.
In the event of an extended utility failure, the output converter will stop when the battery has been discharged. At this
point, the UPS is no longer able to power the connected equipment.
When the utility is re-established within tolerance, the output converter will be supplied again by the input converter
and the batteries will be recharged, making them ready to support future power failures.

3.4 Automatic Bypass Switch
If the output converter is unable to deliver the demanded output power because of overload or overtemperature, the
automatic bypass switch will automatically transfer the load to the utility. When the situation is corrected the UPS will
switch back to normal operation, i.e. the load is tranferred back to the output converter. Though the automatic
bypass switch is shown as a simple mechanical switch in figures 2-5, the transfers are done by means of thyristors,
i.e. electronically, without any interruption of the power supplied to the load.
In case of a severe overload or short-circuit the magnetic bypass circuit breaker (rear panel) may trip in order to
protect the UPS. If the current is insufficiently high to trip the breaker, the UPS will be switched off by the software in
order to protect the UPS and connected equipment.’
If a power failure occurs during bypass operation, load power may be lost. If the UPS functions under overload
conditions it may not be able to protect the load.
3.5 Manual Bypass Switch (Service switch)
The system can be bypassed manually using the manual bypass switch located at the rear panel. It is a two-position
switch: the normal position is '1': as in figures 2-4. Position '2' is the service position: the load is directly connected to
the utility input. This way maintenance of the UPS (e.g. battery replacement, as in fig. 5) is possible without
interruption of the power supplied to the load.
CAUTION: REFER SERVICE TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.
THE RFI FILTERS AND OUTPUT TRANSFORMER ARE ALWAYS ACTIVE.

4.4.5 Installation of GE Digital Energy LanPro®-U battery extension pack(s)
The numbers between (brackets) refer to figures 19-21 in section 5.1.
Battery extension pack(s) are shipped with all materials necessary to connect them to the UPS. The pack(s) can be
connected to the DC connector (15) at the rear panel of the UPS. Be sure to switch off the UPS before proceeding:
be sure that the UPS can be switched off without causing damage to the load, and turn all circuit breakers (7-8-9)
into ‘off’ position (down).
1. Open the DC fuse holders at the rear of the battery pack
(16) and make sure that the fuses have been removed.
1a. Open the DC fuse holders at the rear of the UPS (16) and
make sure that the fuses have been removed.
2. UPS rear panel: loosen the screws, and remove the cover
plate (11) and conduit box (17).
CAUTION! The battery voltage is 240Vdc and is
NOT isolated from the utility.
3. Break out the indicated part of the conduit box, fix the
gland of the DC cable in this opening.
4. Connect the DC connector of the battery pack (15a) to the
DC socket of the UPS (15). Be sure that the colours
match. You will hear a click when the cable is properly
installed.
5. Re-install the cover plate and conduit box.
6. In case of 14Ah battery packs: using the DC connector of
the battery pack (15) you can install a second, third, etc.
pack. 7Ah battery packs cannot be connected in parallel.
NOTE: A maximum of two GE Digital Energy 14Ah
battery cabinets can be connected without additional
fusing. Every two additional GE Digital Energy 14Ah
battery cabinets must be connected over a 60Amp fuse,
rated for 300Vdc.
NOTE: Third party battery cabinets must be connected
over a 60Amp fuse, rated for 300Vdc, using the GE
Digital Energy external battery cable (order separately).
7. Insert the 2 (7Ah) or 4 (14Ah) DC fuses of the (each)
battery pack, insert the DC fuses of the UPS and close the
fuse holder(s) of battery pack and UPS (16).
8. In order to calculate the available back-up time related to
the actual load, information on the capacity of the battery
set is stored in the UPS. As the total battery capacity
changes when battery extension packs are installed, the
battery capacity must be re-programmed. See 5.3.4.
In case of a custom-built battery extension set you may want to
install a ‘battery disconnected’ alarm device.
9. Be sure that the UPS is switched off, and disassemble the
RS232/Contact Interface Card (12) from the unit. If the
card is disassembled during normal operation the UPS will
shut down!
Remove the wire from connector J3 (pin 1 and 2). Install
the wiring of a normally closed contact (e.g. an auxiliary
contact of a circuit breaker) to pin 1 and 2. Re-install the
interface card. If the contact is opened, the UPS will
generate an ‘EXTERNAL BATTERY FUSE FAILURE’.
See 5.3.2 for more information.
Proceed with 4.4.1 or 5.2.

4.4.6 LanPro®11U series: 2 / 3 / 4 parallel operating units – additional info
The RPA option (Redundant Parallel Architecture) allows you to create a redundant UPS system in which 2, 3 or 4
LanPro®-U units operate in parallel. The following should be considered when installing units in parallel.
This section gives aditional information on:
- installation (4.4.6.1)
- start-up (4.4.6.2)
- use / maintenance (4.4.6.3)
4.4.6.1 Notes concerning installation of a parallel system
1. All inputs of the UPSs must be supplied from the same phase. This is to enable bypass operation of the
parallel system. All inputs must be individually protected by fuses in the installation. The values of these fuses
should correspond to the values mentioned in section 4.4 table 1.
2. All outputs must be connected together, supplying the load. It is advised to install switches (S 1-4, fig. 17) in
the output wiring, in order to be able to isolate a unit from the remaining system for service and maintenance
purposes. It is advised to make a Neutral-to-Ground bounding in the output junction.
3. The diameter of input and output cables must be according to the table in the installation drawings (see
appendix). Cables with different diameters can cause tripping fuses in the UPS and/or the installation.
4. The length of all input cables from the input junction (Li, fig. 17) to the UPS inputs should be equal. The same
applies to the cables from the outputs to the output junction (Lo, fig. 17). The minimum length of the input as
well as the output cables is 3 meters / 10 feet.

5. The right option slot (14) at the rear of the unit contains the the RPA-card. Before the parallel system can be
put into operation a unique number has to be appointed to each UPS in the system. This can be 0, 1, 2 or 3.
Start with 0 for the first unit, 1 for the second, 2 for the third and 3 for the last unit:
-loosen the screws, remove the RPA-card
-set the dipswitch to the appointed number (fig. 18)
-re-install the RPA-card, fasten the screws.
Do NOT install the network cables between the RPA-cards of the units yet!
6. In the UPS many parameters can be set. It is advised to keep the same setting for each parameter in each
UPS in the parallel system. In any case the following parameters are critical and should have equal settings:
-autorestart (on/off, see 5.3.3)
-output voltage (120/208/220/230/240 Vac, see 5.3.4)
-output frequency (50/60 Hz, see 5.3.4)
It is absolutely required that these parameters are set to the same value. Off factory this is the case. If you’re
not sure that the units have equal settings:
-be sure that the RPA-cards of the units have not been interconnected yet
-be sure that utility power is connected to the UPS
-start each unit individually (see 5.2), check / change the parameters, and switch the unit off again.
7. Interconnect the RPA-cards of the units, using the network cable that came with the UPS. See figure 17
(dotted line). Only install the cables that were delivered with the UPSs! Of the first and the last UPS in the
system only one RPA-socket is used to interconnect the UPSs. A bus terminator must be placed in the other
(free) RPA-socket. The required bus terminators have been delivered with the unit.
4.4.6.2 Notes concerning starting up the parallel system
For starting up the system please refer to section 5.2.
After switching on all units the LanPro®-U UPSs will show the following display:
After pressing the enter/reset button on one of the units the system will start up. All units will display the standard
screen. The number in the lower right corner indicates the number of the UPS in the system.
If the parameters mentioned in 4.4.6.1 step 6 are not set to the same value the UPS will display the following screen
after start-up:
In this case check and correct the setting of the parameters as mentioned in 4.4.6.1, step 6.
