1.0 Product Description
1.1 Theory of Operation
An uninterruptible power supply is a system that is installed between the commercial
power and the load equipment. It is used during short-term blackouts or brownouts. The
UPS provides steady ac output power during these commercial power interruptions.
This power is provided for a long enough time so that the load can be shutdown in an
orderly fashion. This prevents loss of data and possible damage to both hardware and
software.
During normal operation the UPS uses commercial ac power. In addition, it also takes
in all of the high voltage spikes and transients caused by switching and faults, and all
of the common mode and normal mode noise which is associated with commercial ac
power. The UPS converts it all to flat dc power. From this dc power, the UPS charges
its batteries and generates its own extremely high quality ac waveform output. The
result of this process is maximum power conditioning.
If the ac power supplied to the UPS drops below a specified voltage level, the unit's
batteries automatically begin supplying power instead of receiving it. This insures that
the loads connected to the UPS continue to receive power with no interruption. When
ac input power becomes available again, operation returns to normal. The unit's
batteries begin to recharge so they will be ready for the next power interruption.
1.2 Application and Use
Toshiba's 1500 and 1500 Plus Series of on-line uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
systems provide continuous computer-grade ac power in a compact, high performance,
and energy efficient unit. The UPS unit assures safe and reliable operation of critical
office equipment. This can range from word processors and personal computers to
mini-computers and local area networks. All units feature an audible alarm which sounds
if the battery voltage drops below standard during use. This is an additional aid to help
in retaining the valuable office data banks. All units allow for computer interfacing and
an external battery pack option (see specifications).
1.3 Power Backup
When an electrical power failure occurs, the UPS unit's internal maintenance-free
batteries automatically supply back-up power to the load without interruption. For
example, when used to support a computer, the UPS back-up assures enough
additional time to complete the activity and store data. This allows an orderly shutdown
after a power failure has occurred.
1.4 Power Conditioning
When commercial power is present, the UPS supplies conditioned power to the load
while maintaining its batteries in a charged condition. The UPS protects against the
normal everyday problems associated with heavy use of raw commercial ac power,
including power sags, surges, signal interference, and spikes. This protection keeps
power-line problems from reaching the loads where they can cause equipment to
operate erratically, hard-disk crashes, or cause damage to hardware and software.

2.0 Inspection/Storage/Disposal
2.1 Inspection of the new UPS equipment
Upon receipt of the UPS, a careful inspection for shipping damage should be made.
After Uncrating:
1) Check the unit for loose, broken, bent or otherwise damaged parts. If damage
has occurred during shipment, keep all original crating and packing materials
for return to shipping agent. Warranty will not apply to units which are damaged
during shipment.
2) Check to see that the rated capacity and the model number specified on the
nameplate conform to the order specifications.
2.2 Storage of UPS equipment.
If the UPS equipment is to be subject to long or short term storage the following
guidelines should be used.
Avoid:
1) Storage in sites subject to extreme changes in temperature or high humidity.
2) Storage in sites subject to exposure of high levels of dust or metal particles
3) Storage on inclined floor surfaces or in sites subject to excessive vibration.
Before storing:
1) Charge the units batteries.
2) Place the STOP/RUN switch in the STOP position.
Storing:
1) Store within a temperature range of -20° to 40° C (-4° to 104° F).
2) For best results, store the UPS in the original shipping container and place on a
wood or metal pallet.
3) The optimum storage temperature is 21° C (70° F). Higher ambient
temperatures cause UPS batteries to need recharging more frequently.
After storing:
1) If stored in an ambient temperature under 20° C (68° F); recharge the batteries
every 9 months.
2) If stored in an ambient temperature of 20° to 30° C (68° to 86° F); recharge the
batteries every 6 months.
3) If stored in an ambient temperature of 30° to 40° C (86° to 104° F); recharge the
batteries every 3 months.
2.3 Disposal
Please contact your state environmental agency for details on disposal of electrical
components and packaging in your particular area.
It is illegal to dump lead-acid batteries in landfills or to dispose of them improperly.
Please help our Earth by contacting the environmental protection agencies in your area,
the battery manufacturer, or call Toshiba toll-free at [phone] for more information
about recycling.

3.0 Precautions
3.1 Installation Precautions (General)
1) Install the unit in a well ventilated location; allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) on
all sides for air ventilation and for maintenance.
2) Install the unit in a stable, level, and upright position which is free of vibration.
3) Install the unit where the ambient temperature is within the correct operating
range (see Specifications Section 4.0).
4) Do not install the UPS in areas that are subject to high humidity.
5) Do not allow direct sunlight to shine on the unit.
6) Do not install the UPS in areas which are subject to contamination such as
high levels of airborne dust, metal particles, or inflammable gas.
7) Avoid installation near sources of electrical noise and always make sure that
the unit ground is intact to prevent electrical shock and to help reduce
electrical noise.
8) Do not install where water or any foreign object may get inside the UPS.
9) This UPS generates and can radiate radio-frequency energy during operation.
Although RFI noise filters are installed inside the unit, there is no guarantee
that the UPS will not influence some sensitive devices which are operating
close by. If such interference is experienced, the UPS should be installed farther
away from the affected equipment and/or powered from a different source than
that of the affected equipment.
CAUTION

TOSHIBA
3.0 Precautions
3.2 Prestart Precautions
1) Before connecting the UPS to a power source; move the operation switch
(STOP/RUN), on the front panel (See sections 9.1), to the STOP position.
3.3 Operating Precautions
1) The UPS should not be powered up until the entire operation manual has
been reviewed.
2) The input power source voltage and frequency must be within the specified
ranges (See Specification sections 4.1 and 4.2). Voltages and frequencies
outside of the permissible tolerance ranges may cause internal protection
devices to activate.
3) The UPS should not be used with a load whose rated input is greater than the
rated UPS output.
4) Do not use the UPS to provide power to motors that require high starting current
or a long starting time such as vacuum cleaners and machine tools (oversizing
for lock rotor current required).
5) Do not insert metal objects or combustible materials in the unit's ventilation slots.
6) Do not place, hang, or paste any objects on the top or on the exterior surfaces
of the UPS.
7) Always use caution when connecting or disconnecting load equipment.
The UPS may be supplying power to the output load receptacles
through the bypass circuit. This can occur when the STOP/RUN
switch is in the STOP position and the unit is connected to a source of
supply power (see Circuit-bypass Mode section 5.1.3).

5.1 Operation Modes
5.1.1 AC Input Mode (normal operation)
Power flow in AC input mode
The above illustration shows circuit power flow in the ac input mode. The UPS
unit's rectifier, included in a boost chopper circuit, converts ac input power to dc
power. This dc power runs the unit's transistor inverter and charges the batteries.
The boost chopper circuit maintains a constant voltage, with current limiting, for
charging the batteries and assures proper sine waveform generation for the
output current. The unit's batteries are maintained in a constantly charged state
when the UPS is in the normal operation mode. On the front panel, LED's labeled
"On Line" and "AC Input" should be on and the "Fault" LED should be off
(See Section 9.2 Panel Layout).
5.1.2 Battery Backup Mode
Power flow in battery backup mode
The above illustration shows circuit power flow in battery backup mode. When
commercial ac power failures occur, the UPS's batteries instantly begin supplying
dc voltage to the UPS's main inverter circuit. This circuit changes (inverts) the dc
power into ac power. The ac power is available at the unit's output receptacles.
This back-up process will continue until the UPS's battery voltage drops below a
specific minimum level. When this occurs, the batteries will stop supplying power
to the load. This minimum level is the rated minimum voltage (Vmin). The rated
battery voltage chart in section 5.6 (See Section 5.7 for battery backup time)
shows (Vmin). On the front panel, LED's labeled AC Input and Fault should be
off. The On Line and Backup LEDs should be on (See Section 9.2 Panel
Layout).

5.1 Operation Modes
5.1.3 Circuit-bypass mode
Power flow in circuit-bypass mode.
If the UPS unit is severely overloaded or develops an internal fault, the power flow
is automatically switched from the unit's main circuit to the bypass circuit mode.
Power flow through the bypass is shown in the above illustrations. This change-
over occurs automatically in approximately 4 milliseconds. The switching period
is not long enough to cause interruptions to occur in most UPS equipment loads.
The energy flow must be transferred manually from the UPS's bypass
circuit back to the inverter circuit after first correcting the fault. Toggle the
STOP/RUN switch (on the unit's front panel) first to STOP and then back to RUN.
This procedure resets the UPS and transfers back to inverter. During circuit-
bypass mode the AC-Input LED is ON, the On-Line LED is OFF, and the Fault
LED may be ON or OFF.(See Section 9.2 Panel Layout).

5.3 Operation Monitoring
5.3.1 Visual Indicator Functions
The following LED (light emitting diode) indicators are located on the front panel
(see Section 9.2 "Panel Layout"). Refer to these lamps for visual information
about the operating condition of the UPS (see Section 5.3.3 "Visual and Audible
Indicator Function Chart").
1) AC Input: This green LED lights when normal ac input power is being
supplied to the UPS unit.
2) On Line: This green LED lights when the inverter output voltage is normal.
3) Fault: This red LED lights when an abnormal operating condition is
detected. Operation of the unit's inverter is inhibited until the fault has been
corrected and the system reset (see Section 5.10 "System Reset").
5.3.2 Audible Alarm Functions
The UPS is equipped with an audible alarm system which activates under various
operating conditions. Sound patterns are used to indicate these conditions (see
Section 5.3.3 "Visual and Audible Indicator Function Chart"). Alarms for the
battery backup mode or low battery voltage will stop automatically when AC input
voltage is restored. Alarms for a fault condition will continue to sound until the
UPS has been reset (see Section 5.10 "System Reset").
