Section I Warnings
Hazardous Voltages
The INPUT AND OUTPUT POWER connectors and cables of the SynQor UPS may have voltages
that are unsafe. INJURY OR DEATH ON CONTACT may result. Appropriate safety precauons
should be taken. All connecons should be made in accordance with LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.
• The UPS CHASSIS should be connected to earth or system ground with Ground Stud on the
rear panel, see mechanical diagrams.
• For the AC INPUT cable and connector:
Do not assume that a hazardous voltage is not present at the terminals of the AC input
connector, even if the UPS appears to be o.
Do not make contact with the terminals of the AC input connector.
Always connect the cable to the UPS before it is connected to the source of AC power.
Always disconnect the AC input cable from the source of AC power before disconnecng it
from the UPS.
If the AC input cable is connected to the source of AC power and not connected to the UPS,
do not contact the exposed terminals of the AC input cable.
Do not assume that the source of AC power is not present.
Connections between the AC input cable and the source of AC power should not be
accessible.
• For the AC OUTPUT cable and connector:
Do not assume that a hazardous voltage is not present at the terminals of the AC output
connector, even if the UPS appears to be o.
Do not make contact with the terminals of the AC output connector.
Connect the AC output cable to the UPS before the UPS is turned on.
If connecon of the load to the AC output cable has exposed conductors, make this connecon
before connecng the AC output cable to the UPS.
Connecons between the AC output cable and the load should not be accessible.
• For the DC INPUT cable and connector (if present):
The rated DC input voltage of the UPS is below the level considered hazardous.
The DC input terminals of the UPS are isolated from the AC input and AC outputs with
reinforced safety insulaon.
However, never assume the terminals of the DC input connector or the wires of the DC input
cable are safe to contact, even if the UPS or DC input source appears to be o.

Section I Warnings
006-0006504 02/27/18 Rev R 5 of 56 UPS-3000 Guide www.synqor.com
• For the DC OUTPUT cables and connectors (if present):
The rated DC output voltage of the UPS is below the level considered hazardous.
The DC output terminals of the UPS are isolated from the AC input and AC outputs with
reinforced safety insulaon.
However, never assume the terminals of the DC output connector or the wires of the DC
output cables are safe to contact, even if the UPS appears to be o.
• For the BATTERY PACK (if not inserted into the UPS):
When the baery pack is not inserted into the UPS, the baery is internally disconnected
from the power pins of the baery pack’s connector.
Even if this disconnecon were not present, the DC voltage of the baery is below the level
considered hazardous.
Do not apply external voltages to the pins of an exposed baery pack connector. It is not
possible to charge the baery pack from an external source, and excess voltages could
damage internal control circuitry.
Hazardous Energies
The INPUT AND OUTPUT POWER connectors and cables of the SynQor UPS may be the source
of high levels of energy. Do not inappropriately make electrical contact between any terminal of
a connector and another, or between any wire of a cable and another, or between any terminal
or wire and the UPS’s chassis or ground. DAMAGING ELECTRICAL ARCS may result. Care should
be taken to avoid accidental electrical contacts of this sort.
When the BATTERY PACK is not inserted into the UPS, the baery is internally disconnected from
the power pins of the baery pack’s connector. An electrical contact between any two of these
power pins or between any power pin and ground should therefore not be damaging. However,
care should take to avoid accidental electrical contacts of this sort.

Section II General Product Information
Product Descripon
The SynQor UPS-3000 Series is an advanced technology military-grade uninterrupble power
supply (UPS) that uses lithium polymer baeries and highly ecient power electronic circuitry
to achieve a high power level and baery run-me in a low-prole, low-weight, rack-mountable
package. It provides voltage and frequency condioning, electrical isolaon, and power ow
smoothing between the power inputs and its power outputs. It provides baery backed-up
power when other power sources are not present.
A communicaon/control port is available to permit monitoring and control by a host computer
system. Front panel LEDs and an audible alarm provide informaon on the status of the UPS and
the baery pack.
The UPS-3000 Series products can draw power from an AC input having a wide range of voltage
and frequency levels, or from an oponal 28 V nominal DC input. The AC input has priority over
the DC input. The UPS provides up to 3000 VA and 2500 W of AC output power at 115 Vac. The
pure sine wave AC output voltage can drive any non-linear load with a crest factor up to 2.5, and
any load power factor from 0.0 to 1.0. There are two oponal DC outputs at various voltage and
power levels. The total AC plus DC output power is limited to 2500 W.
The electronic circuitry within the UPS-3000 Series products is designed, qualied and screened
according to SynQor’s Mil-COTS Standards. It complies with the requirements of MIL-STD-704F,
MIL-STD-1399-300B, MIL-STD-1275D and MIL-STD-461F, as well as IEC-EN61000 specicaons
for world-wide commercial ulity applicaons.
The UPS-3000 Series products are designed and manufactured to withstand the harsh environments
and use encountered in military applicaons. The electronic circuitry and baery are contained in
a sealed chamber constructed from a die-cast aluminum chassis that is weather-proof and shock-
proof. Redundant, water-proof fans on the rear panel draw cooling air over the heat-sink ns below
the sealed chamber. Military-grade circular connectors are used, and oponal aached connector
covers are available for when the cables are not aached. The UPS-3000 Series products comply
with a wide range of tesng according to MIL-STD-810G.
The UPS-3000 Series is a 2U high unit that has two standard baery packs which provide >10
minutes of full-power run-me and weighs approximately 65 lbs.
The SynQor UPS-3000 Series products are designed and manufactured in the U.S.A.

Product Topology
The SynQor UPS-3000 Series products use a true on-line double conversion topology that
provides protecon to the load from spikes, noise, surges, brownouts, blackouts, etc. in the
input power sources. They also provide smoothing of load transients and nonlinear load
proles so that the input power sources are not subjected to these disturbances. There is
a seamless transfer from any power source to another so that there is no disrupon in the
output voltage waveform.
As the gure below shows, there is a nominal 28 V mid-bus within the UPS that draws power
from one of up to three power sources: the AC INPUT, the oponal DC INPUT or the baery
(with that order of priority based on availability). EMI lters are present at all external inputs
and outputs.

electronic switch that is closed when the AC INPUT power is absent and the DC INPUT voltage is
within its specied range. Otherwise, a second electronic switch is closed to connect the baery
to the mid-bus.

Section II General Product Information
006-0006504 02/27/18 Rev R 9 of 56 UPS-3000 Guide www.synqor.com
The AC OUTPUT is created by an inverter that draws power from the mid-bus. This inverter provides
high-frequency safety isolaon and a pure-sinusoidal output voltage waveform. An oponal
electronic breaker can be added to the AC output. This one pole hot side only electronic breaker
allows for fault tolerant, glitch free operaon when several UPS units are placed in parallel.
Oponal DC outputs at various voltage and power levels are available. The DC1 opon provides
two separate 500 W outputs which cannot be used directly in parallel. The DC2 opon provides
a single parallelable output up to 2500 W. When the DC2 opon is selected, the DC Input is not
available. The DC1 and DC2 outputs are isolated from each other as well as the AC output.
Bulk energy storage capacitors are connected to the mid-bus to help smooth imbalances in
power ow between the inputs and outputs of the UPS.
There is a baery charger circuit that draws power from the mid-bus. It ensures the baeries
are normally fully charged and that the various cells are equalized. The baery also contains
protecon circuitry to avoid damage due to improper charging or discharging, or to excessive
temperatures.
There is a communicaon/control port that provides a digital interface to a host computer system.

Total Output Power that can be derived from the AC INPUT
The total UPS output power (the AC OUTPUT power plus the oponal DC OUTPUT power) for
the UPS-3000 series is rated at 2500 W for an ambient temperature as high as 55oC (131oF). It
draws this power rst from the AC INPUT (if its voltage is within range) and then the DC INPUT
(if its voltage is within range) and then from the internal BATTERY PACK (if it has sucient
charge).
However, when the AC INPUT voltage is at the low end of its range (<90 Vrms) or the ambient
temperature is at the high end of its range (>45oC/113oF) the UPS will not be able to deliver its
full rated output power in the steady-state without switching over to either the DC INPUT (if it
is available and >22 Vdc) or its internal baery. Figure 2 indicates the total steady-state output
power that the UPS can derive under these extreme condions. See Figure
3 for informaon on transient condions.

• If the AC INPUT voltage is above 105 Vrms, then the UPS can deliver its full rated output power
of 2500 W from the AC INPUT for an ambient temperature as high as 55oC (131oF) without
needing to switch over to the oponal DC INPUT or the internal BATTERY PACK.
• If the AC INPUT is between 90 Vrms and 80 Vrmsthen the total output power that can be
derived from the AC INPUT linearly decreases from 2500 W at 90 Vrms to 2000 W at 80 Vrms
(except for at the high end of the ambient temperature range – see below). For example, the
total output power that could be derived from the AC INPUT would be 2250 W at 85 Vrms as
long as the ambient temperature is not above 50oC (122oF). If the total output power is greater
than this derated value, the UPS will switch to the DC INPUT (if it is available and >22 V) or the
internal BATTERY PACK.

• If the AC INPUT voltage is 90 Vrms the ambient air temperature is above 45oC (113oF),
the total output power that can be derived from the AC INPUT linearly decreases from 2500
W at 45oC (113oF) to 2000 W at 55oC (131oF). For example, the total output power that could
be derived from the AC INPUT would be 2250 W at an AC INPUT voltage of 90 Vrms and an
ambient temperature of 50oC (122oF). A higher output power than this would cause the UPS
to switch over to its DC INPUT or the internal BATTERY PACK.
• When the AC INPUT voltage is between 105 Vrms and 90 Vrmsthe ambient temperature
is between 45oC and 55oC, the total output power that can be derived from the AC INPUT
can be calculated by linearly interpolang between the curves shown. For example, the total
output power that can be derived from the AC INPUT when the voltage is 97.5 Vrms would
be 2500 W up to an ambient temperature of 50oC (122oF) and then derate to 2250 W at 55oC
(131oF).
Furthermore, there is a limited (and uncommon) range of AC INPUT voltage between 132 Vrms
and 160 Vrmsin which the total output power that can be derived from the AC INPUT is also
derated, as shown in the graph below.

Note that the full rated output power of 2500 W can be derived from the AC INPUT having a
voltage within this uncommon range for 15 seconds before the UPS will switch over to the DC
INPUT or the BATTERY PACK. Also the UPS can drive full rated power for a 2 second interval even
if the AC INPUT voltage drops below 90 Vrms.

Figure 4: Maximum DC1 Power vs. AC Power
Addionally, while the AC output is loaded to 1500 W or greater, the available DC1A and/or DC1B
output power is reduced as shown in Figure 4. In order to achieve the rated DC1 output power,
the AC output must be loaded to less than 1500 W. For example, if the AC output is loaded to
2000 W and both DC1 outputs are to be used to achieve a total of 2500 W, they must be equally
loaded to 250 W. Similarly, if the AC output is loaded to 2000 W and if either DC1A or DC1B is
desired, it can only be loaded to 250 W.

Power Cable Wire Size
SynQor recommends the following cables for use with the UPS-3000 Series:
AC Input: SYN-9105 UPS connecon to Hardwire Terminaon, 10’
AC Output: SYN-9135 UPS connecon to Hardwire Terminaon, 10’
DC Input: SYN-9155 UPS connecon to Hardwire Terminaon, 10’
DC1 Output: SYN-9173 UPS connecon to Hardwire Terminaon, 10’
DC2 Output: SYN-9178 UPS connecon to Hardwire Terminaon, 10’
Other opons may be available. Contact info@synqor.com or visit the website: www.synqor.com for more
informaon. If it is necessary to develop custom cables for your applicaon, please read through the following
secon for some important consideraons. Damage caused by improper wiring of cables will not be covered
under SynQor’s warranty.
Both the input and output cables of the UPS carry substanal current, and since the wires in these cables have
resistance the current owing through them causes a voltage drop from one end of the cable to the other. In
other words, the voltage across the cable at its downstream end is smaller than the voltage across the cable at its
upstream end. Mathemacally, the amount that the voltage drops is equal to the resistance of the cable’s wire
mulplied by the current owing through the wire. It is therefore to make sure that the
enough to keep this voltage drop to an acceptably small value.
While this is an issue for all of the power cables,
because the current owing through it is very high (as high as 124 A for the UPS-3000 Series)
and the voltage across it is already relavely small (as low as 22 V). In fact, a common problem that arises
(when the DC INPUT cable has too small a wire) is that the voltage seen at the DC INPUT of the UPS falls below
the minimum specied value of 22 V even though the voltage at the source of the DC power is greater than
22 V. Under this condion the UPS will switch to the internal baery pack for its power source even though the
voltage at the DC source of power appears to be available and at a proper level.
The resistance of a wire depends directly on its length. A wire twice as long as another will have twice the
resistance, holding all other things constant. The resistance also depends on the reciprocal of the cross-seconal
area of the wire, which in turn depends on the square of the wire’s diameter. A wire with half the diameter of
another will therefore have four mes the resistance, holding all other things constant.
Therefore, the longer a cable is, the more important it is that the wire’s diameter be large. Alternavely, a cable
can have mulple pairs of wires to achieve a larger “eecve wire diameter”. This second approach gives a more
exible cable. For 10 long cables, SynQor recommends that for the UPS-3000 Series:
• The AC INPUT cable have 3 wires (one for the ground) of 8 AWG
• The DC INPUT cable have 6 wires (three for each connecon) of 8 AWG
• The AC OUTPUT cable have 3 wires (one for ground) of 10 AWG
• The DC1 OUTPUT cable have 4 wires (two for each connecon) of 10 AWG
• The DC2 OUTPUT cable have 6 wires (three for each connecon) of 8 AWG
Addional details about the eects of a resistance-related voltage drop are included in “Trouble-Shoong
Guide - Cable wire resistance is too high”.

Section III Operation
Set-Up
The recommended procedure for seng up the UPS is the following:
• Insert the BATTERY PACKs (if not already present) and ghten its screws.
• Make sure the AC BREAKER on the rear panel of the UPS is in the OFF posion.
• Connect the ground wire to the ground stud on the rear panel of the UPS.
• Connect all OUTPUT cables, rst to the UPS and then to the various loads.
• that the oponal DC OUTPUT cables are connected to the UPS and the load with the
correct polarity.
• Connect the USER I/O cables.
• Connect all INPUT cables, rst to the UPS and then to the various sources.
• An overcurrent protect and disconnect device should be installed on the DC INPUT circuit. An
example of a suitable device is a Carling Technologies, F-series, 150 A 125 VDC, FA1-B0-14-
815-12A-BG circuit breaker. (www.carlingtech.com)
• that the oponal DC INPUT cable is connected to the UPS and the source of DC power
with the correct polarity.
• Turn on the sources (if they have an upstream breaker).
• Move the AC BREAKER on the rear panel of the UPS to the ON posion.
Be careful to not toggle the ON/OFF switch during the setup. Doing so could cause the UPS
to turn on and present a hazardous voltage at its output.

Section III Operation
Start-Up
• that all connecons to the UPS are correct.
• If either the AC source or the DC source (or both) is present and within specicaons, the
color of the LED above the ON/OFF switch will be amber. This indicates that the UPS is
in standby mode and ready to turn on. The baery pack LEDs will also be appropriately
illuminated.
• Momentarily push the ON/OFF switch on the front panel of the UPS upward. The switch can
then be released and it will return to its normal (neutral) posion.
• The UPS will immediately enable its outputs (assuming there is no fault condion). The color
of the LED above the ON/OFF switch will change to green. The LEDs on the baery pack will
indicate the amount of power being delivered to the load and the input source from which
this power is being drawn.
If no input power sources are available the UPS can sll be turned on. It will draw power
from the internal baery for as long as the baery has charge le in it. This is somemes referred
to as a “COLD START” in the industry. Under this condion, the LED above the ON/OFF switch
and the baery pack’s LEDs will inially all be o. When the ON/OFF switch is pushed to the
ON posion, all of these LEDs will be appropriately illuminated. Both baery packs need to be
inserted and charged in order for the cold-start to succeed.
Shut-Down
• Shut down the equipment connected to the UPS.
• Push the ON/OFF switch on the front panel of the UPS downward and hold it in this
posion for 1 second (or more). The color of the LED above the ON/OFF switch will change
to amber (if one or both input power sources are present) or it will be o (if no power
sources are present). The switch can then be released to return to its normal posion. The
service light on the baery will remain green for approximately 10 seconds aer a normal
shutdown
• The UPS will disable its outputs and shut down.
• The baery pack LEDs will either be appropriately illuminated (if one or both input power
sources are present) or they will be o (if no power sources are present).
• It is not necessary to move the AC BREAKER on the rear panel of the UPS to the OFF posion.
