5. INSTALLATION.
•Check the Safety instructions (see chapter 2).
•Check that the data in the nameplate are the required by the
installation.
•A wrong connection or manoeuvring, can make faults in the UPS and/
or loads connected to itself. Read carefully the instructions of this
manual and follow the stated steps in the established order.
•The equipments can be installed and used by personnel
with no specific training just with the help of this
«Manual» only, less those ones that are hard wired, which have
to be installed by qualified personnel.
•All connections of the equipment including the control
(interface, remote panel, ...), will be done with the
switches at rest and no voltage present (UPS power supply
switch to «Off»).
•Never forget that the UPS is an electrical energy gener-
ator, so the user has to take the needed cautions against
direct and indirect contacts.
•Battery circuit is not isolated from input voltage. Haz-
ardous voltages can be found out between the battery
terminals and earth. Check that there is not input voltage before
doing any intervention on them.
5.1. TO BE CONSIDERED IN THE INSTALLATION.
•All the equipments have power cord with schuko plug to be con-
nected to the AC mains, less the B1 version of 3 kVA, which is
hard wired.
In the same way, 2 or 3 schuko outlets are supplied depending
on the model, for its connection with the loads [output] and also
to the terminals in all the 3kVA units.
For the rest of connections is used an connector for the battery
connection [B1 version] and ports for communications.
•Cross cable section of the input and output lines, will be calculated
from the currents stated in the nameplate of each equipment, and
respecting the Local and/or National Low Voltage Electrotechnical
Regulations.
•Protections of the switchgear panel, will have the following fea-
tures:
For input line, type B for RCD devices and C characteristic
for circuit breakers.
For the output (load feeding), C characteristic for circuit breaker.
Regarding the size, they will be as minimum to the currents
stated in the nameplate of each UPS.
•In the nameplate of the equipment there are only printed the
nominal currents as it is stated in the safety standard EN-IEC
62040-1. To calculate the input current, the power factor and the
efficiency of the equipment have been considered.
Overload conditions are considered as nonpermanent and ex-
ceptional operating mode.
•If it is added peripherals to the input or output like transformers
or autotransformers to the UPS, the currents stated in the own
nameplates of those elements has to be considered in order to
use the suitable cross sections, by respecting the Local and/or
National Low Voltage Regulation.
•When an equipment incorporates a galvanic isolation
transformer, as standard, as an option or either installed
by yourself, either at the UPS input line, output or in both, pro-
tections against indirect contact has to be fitted in (residual cur-
rent device) at the output of each transformer, because due to its
specification of isolation it will prevent the triggering of the
protections fitted in the primary of the transformer in case of
electrical shock in the secondary (output of the isolation trans-
former)
•Remind you that all external isolation transformers already in-
stalled or supplied from factory, has the neutral of the secondary
connected to earth by means of a cable bridge between both
terminals. If it were required an isolated output neutral, remove
this cable bridge, keeping the precautions stated in the respec-
tive local and/or national low voltage regulations.
•All standard UPSs have batteries in the same enclosure of the
equipment , less those ones as B1. In the first ones, the battery
protection is by internal fuses and there is no access to the end-
user.
Also the battery modules have internal protections by fuses and
in the same way as it is done in the own equipments, they are
not accessible by the end-user.
•IMPORTANT FOR SAFETY: In case of installing the bat-
teries by yourself, the accumulators have to be provided
with a two pole circuit breaker protection sized to the features
stated in table 2.
5.2. RECEPTION OF THE EQUIPMENT.
5.2.1. Unpacking, content checking and inspection.
•To unpacking, see section 5.2.3.
•On receiving the device, make sure that it has not suffered any
damage in transport (impact, drop, ...) and its features correspond
with the ones in the order, so it is recommended to unpack the
UPS and make a first visual inspection.
•In case of observing damages, make all pertinent claims to the
transport agency or in their lack to our company.
Never start up an equipment when external damages
can be observed.
•Also check that the data in the nameplate sticked in the pack-
aging and in the equipment, correspond to the ones stated in
the order, so it is required to unpack it (see section 5.2.3). Other-
wise, make a nonconformity as soon as possible, by quoting the
serial number of the equipment and references in the delivery note.
•Check the contents of the packaging. Depending on what we are
checking, an equipment or battery module, the contents will vary.
UPS:
–The own equipment.
–Hardcopy quick guide. Also for 3kVA models, a user’s
manual on digital support [CD].
–1 connection cable for input - schuko plug and IEC con-
nector -.
–1 USB communication cable.
–1 female connector for connection of an external EPO,
with an isolated cable as jumper mode in order to close
the circuit.
Battery module:
–The own module.
•Once the reception is finished, it is advisable to pack the UPS
again till its commissioning in order to protect it against me-
chanical shocks, dust, dirt, etc...
