Installation

1.0INSTALLATION

The Liebert NX™ UPS is designed primarily for telecommunications and data processing applications. Liebert Corporation neither recommends nor knowingly sells this product for use with life support and other designated “critical” devices.

This section describes the NX’s environmental requirements and mechanical considerations that must be taken into account when planning the positioning and cabling of the UPS equipment.

Because every site is unique, this section presents a guide to general procedures and practices that should be observed by the installing engineer, rather than step-by-step installation instructions.

! WARNING

Do not apply electrical power to the UPS equipment before the arrival of the commissioning engineer.

! WARNING

The UPS equipment should be installed by a qualified engineer in accordance with the information contained in this section.

! WARNING

Special care should be taken when working with the batteries associated with this equipment. When connected together, the nominal battery voltage is 288VDC and is potentially lethal.

•Eye protection should be worn to prevent injury from accidental electrical arcs.

•Remove rings, watches and all metal objects.

•Only use tools with insulated handles.

•Wear rubber gloves.

If a battery leaks electrolyte or is otherwise physically damaged, it must be replaced, stored in a container resistant to sulfuric acid and disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

If electrolyte comes into contact with skin, the affected area should be washed immediately with large amounts of water.

NOTE

The NX UPS can be used in TN utility system.

1.1External Inspections

1.While the UPS system is still on the truck, inspect the equipment and shipping container(s) for any signs of damage or mishandling. Do not attempt to install the system if damage is apparent. If any damage is noted, file a damage claim with the shipping agency within 24 hours and contact Liebert Global Services at 1-800-LIEBERT to inform them of the damage claim and the condition of the equipment.

2.Compare the contents of the shipment with the bill of lading. Report any missing items to the carrier and your local Liebert representative immediately.

1.2Internal Inspections

1.Remove any packaging material, then visually examine the UPS and battery equipment for transit damage, both internally and externally. Report any such damage to the shipper and to Liebert immediately.

2.Check the nameplate inside the cabinet door to verify that the model number and rating correspond to the ones specified. Record the model number and serial number in the front of this installation manual. This information is necessary should service be required.

3.Check for loose connections or unsecured components in the cabinet.

4.Check for shipping damage to internal components.

Installation

1.2.1Storing for Delayed Installation

If the equipment will not be installed immediately, it must be stored indoors where the humidity is no higher than 90% and the temperature is no higher than 104°F (40°C). The storage area must protect the NX from excessive moisture (see 6.2 - UPS Environmental).

	!	CAUTION
		If the UPS must remain disconnected from power for more than six (6) months, the battery
		must be recharged before use. To charge the batteries, the unit must be connected to utility
		power and started up—the charger operates only while the NX is operating.
	!	CAUTION
		When batteries are installed in the UPS or are cabinet-mounted adjacent to the UPS unit, the
		battery—not the UPS—dictates the designed maximum ambient temperature.
1.3	Preliminary Checks
1.3.1	Identification
	The equipment supplied has an identification tag on the back of the main door listing the type and
	size of the UPS.
1.4	UPS Location

1.4.1Positioning the UPS

Choose a location for the UPS that offers:

•Easy connection to inputs, outputs and auxiliary equipment

•Enough space to service the UPS

•Air circulation sufficient to expel heat produced by UPS

•Protection against moisture and excessive humidity

•Protection against dust and other particulate matter

•Compliance with fire prevention regulations and practices

•Operating environment temperature of 74-80°F (23-27°C) for maximum battery efficiency

1.4.2Environmental Considerations

Before installing the NX, verify that the UPS room satisfies the environmental conditions stipulated in 6.2 - UPS Environmental, paying particular attention to the ambient temperature and air exchange system.

The UPS unit should be installed in a cool, dry, clean-air environment with adequate ventilation to keep the ambient temperature within the specified operating range 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C).

For optimal UPS and battery system performance and service life, maintain the operating temperature within the range of 74-80°F, (23-27°C).

The NX UPS cooled by internal fans. Cooling air enters the unit through the front of the unit and is exhausted out the top. To permit proper air flow and prevent overheating, do NOT block or cover the ventilation openings or blow air down onto the unit. Ventilation clearance above the unit must be a minimum of 24 in. (610mm).

See Table 9 for details on heat dissipation.

Battery Location

Temperature is a major factor in determining battery life and capacity. Battery manufacturers recommend an operating temperature of 77°F (25°C). Ambient temperatures warmer than this reduce battery life; temperatures below this reduces battery capacity. In a typical installation, battery temperature should be maintained between 74°F and 80°F (23-27°C). Batteries should be placed where there are no main heat sources or air inlets to prevent portions of batteries from being either much warmer or much cooler than other parts of the batteries.

Installation

1.4.3Special Considerations for 1+N Systems

1.Consider the grounding configuration of your system before finalizing module placement. For optimal ground performance, the NX modules should be close together.

2.For optimal load-sharing performance, the UPS output cables should be approximately the same length, plus or minus 20 percent.

3.Position modules in such a way as to minimize the length of power cables and control wiring between UPS modules and the paralleling cabinet.

1.5Considerations in Moving the NX

Ensure that the UPS weight is within the designated surface weight loading (lb./ft2 or kg/cm2) of any handling equipment. See Table 9 for weights of various units.

To move the UPS and optional battery cabinets:

•The NX may be rolled on its casters when moving the unit a short distance. For longer distances, move the UPS with a forklift or similar equipment to ease the relocation and to reduce vibration.

The optional battery cabinets should be moved with a forklift or similar equipment.

! WARNING

Ensure that any equipment that will be used to move the NX has sufficient lifting capacity. The NX weight ranges from 850 to 1400 lb. (386 to 635kg). See Table 9 for details. The UPS presents a tipping hazard. Do not tilt the NX further than 15 degrees from vertical.

The UPS is fitted with casters—take care to prevent movement when unbolting the equipment from its shipping pallet. Ensure adequate personnel and lifting equipment are available when taking the NX off its shipping pallet. Do not tilt the unit more than 15 degrees from center.

! WARNING

The casters are strong enough for movement across even surfaces only. Casters may fail if they are subjected to shock loading, such as being dropped or rolled over holes in the floor or obstructions. Such failure may cause the unit to tip over, injuring personnel and damaging the equipment.

Care must be taken when maneuvering units fitted with batteries. Keep such moves to a minimum. For further information, see Battery Cabinet Precautions on page 2.

Final Position

When the equipment has been finally positioned, ensure that the adjustable stops are set so that the UPS will remain stationary and stable (see 7.0 - Installation Drawings).

1.6Mechanical Considerations

The NX is constructed with a steel frame and removable panels. Top and side panels are secured to the chassis by screws. The doors may be opened for access to power connections bars, auxiliary terminals blocks and power switches.

The UPS comes with an operator control panel, which provides basic operational status and alarm information. The cabinet houses both the power components and the internal batteries. Cooling is provided by internal fans. The unit sits on four casters. Adjustable stops are provided to prevent the UPS from moving once it has been moved to its final position.

There are no ventilation grilles on the sides or rear of the UPS. The sides must be accessible during installation. After installation, the unit may be placed with the rear against a wall and optional cabinets on either side.

To enable routine tightening of power terminations within the UPS, make sure there is sufficient clearance in front of the NX to permit free passage of personnel with the door fully opened.

Leave a minimum of 2 ft. (610mm) between the top of the UPS and the ceiling to permit adequate air circulation above the unit. Liebert recommends against using air conditioning or other systems that blow air onto the top of the unit.

1.6.2Floor Installation

The diagrams in 7.0 - Installation Drawings show the location of holes in the base plate for bolting the equipment to the floor. An optional anchoring kit is available. For information, see your local Liebert representative.

If the equipment is to be placed on a raised floor, it should be mounted on a pedestal that will support the equipment point loading. Refer to the bottom view in Figure 28 to design this pedestal.

1.6.3Cable Entry

Cables can enter the NX from the top or bottom. Cable entry is made possible by removing a metal plate attached to the UPS.

These plates are designed to allow the personnel to punch holes for fitting and securing the conduit. Once the conduit holes are punched, these plates should be reattached to the UPS.

Connecting cables to the NX may require that the UPS be accessible from the left side to allow personnel to complete the connections and make necessary adjustments. After installation is complete, the NX may be serviced from the front.

NOTE

When installing the UPS, the customer must provide a disconnect with overcurrent protection at the output of the UPS.

10-30kVA UPS

The 10-30kVA NX consists of a single cabinet housing the UPS components and the internal battery string.

Optional battery cabinets are available to provide extended run time. Each cabinet houses additional strings of batteries that operate in parallel with the NX’s internal batteries. The cabinets are designed to be bolted to the right side of the UPS (see Figure 1). Refer to 3.4 - External Battery Cabinet Installation for details.

Optional maintenance bypass/transformer cabinets (MBC-T) are available. These cabinets house the components necessary to:

•Provide an external wrap-around maintenance bypass switch for servicing the UPS

•Provide voltage transformation for site or application requirements

•Provide a means for neutral isolation and allow installations for site without a neutral conductor

MBC-T cabinets are designed to be bolted to the left side of the UPS (see Figure 1). Refer to 4.5 - Locating the Cabinet, for further details.

System Composition

A UPS system can comprise a number of equipment cabinets, depending on the individual system design requirements—e.g., UPS cabinet and External Bypass cabinet. In general, all cabinets used will be the same height and are designed to be positioned side-by-side to form an aesthetically appealing equipment suite.

Installation

1.6.4Optional Cabinets

If your NX installation includes a Maintenance Bypass Cabinet, the NX must be positioned to allow the Maintenance Bypass Cabinet to be bolted to left side of the NX (see Figure 1). Cables from the Maintenance Bypass Cabinet must be brought through the bottom side of the NX for connection.

The Maintenance Bypass Cabinet must be cabled and bolted to the NX before the UPS and bypass cabinet are moved into their final position. Connect the input wiring to the Maintenance Bypass Cabinet ONLY after the units are connected and positioned.

Battery cabinets may be bolted to either side of the NX, unless used in configurations that include a Maintenance Bypass Cabinet. If used with a Maintenance Bypass Cabinet, battery cabinets must be installed on the right side of the UPS; see Figure 1 below.

Electrical Connections

2.0ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The UPS requires both power and control cabling once it has been mechanically installed. All control cables must run separate from power cables in metal conduits or metal ducts that are electrically bonded to the metalwork of the cabinets to which they are connected.

! WARNING

Before connecting input power to the NX, ensure that you are aware of the location and operation of the overcurrent protection devices that connect the UPS input/bypass supply to the power distribution panel.

De-energize and lockout or tagout all incoming highand low-voltage power circuits before installing cables or making any electrical connections.

2.1Power Cabling

2.1.1Cable Rating

The main factors affecting the choice and size of cable are voltage, current (also taking into account overcurrent), room temperature and conditions of installation of the cable.

The power cables of the system must be sized with respect to the following description:

•UPS input cables - The UPS input cables must be sized for the maximum input current, including the maximum battery recharge current, given in Table 10, with respect to the unit rating and the input AC voltage.

•UPS bypass and output cables - The bypass and output cables must be sized for the nominal output current, given in Table 10, with respect to the unit rating and the output AC voltage.

•Battery cables - Each UPS unit has its own internal batteries factory-wired. If connecting an external battery cabinet, the battery cables must be sized for the battery discharge current at the end-of-discharge voltage, as given in Table 10, with respect to the unit rating.

NOTE

Table 10 gives nominal currents for determining the size of UPS power cables. Other important factors to consider include cable route length and coordination with protective devices.

The power cables can be sized to suit the UPS unit rating according to Table 10.

Lug Size and Torque Requirements

Refer to Table 27 for lug size and torque requirements.

Electrical Connections

2.1.2UPS Input Configuration

Figure 2 illustrates the NX in a split bypass (dual-input) configuration. In this configuration the Static Bypass and the Maintenance Bypass lines are supplied from a separate feed from the Main input. Both sources must be protected externally with properly sized protective devices. By default, the unit ships with internal links installed between the Bypass input and Main input (Single Input configuration). To wire the unit as a dual input UPS, remove the links and wire the bypass to the input bus bars, then wire the Main input directly to CB1 (see Figure 3).

2.1.3Cabling Guidelines

The following are guidelines only and are superseded by local regulations and codes of practice where applicable.

1.Take special care when determining the size of the neutral cable, as current circulating on the neutral cable may be greater than nominal current in the case of non-linear loads. Refer to the values in 6.4 - UPS Electrical Characteristics.

2.The ground conductor should be sized according to such factors as the fault rating, cable lengths and type of protection. The ground cable connecting the UPS to the main ground system must follow the most direct route possible. Control wiring and power wiring must be run in separate conduit. Output and input cables must be run in separate conduit.

3.Consider using paralleled smaller cables for heavy currents—this can ease installation.

4.When sizing battery cables, a maximum voltage drop of 4VDC is permissible at the current ratings in Table 10. For terminal connection sizing, see Table 10.

5.In most installations, especially parallel multi-module systems, the load equipment is connected to a distribution network of individually protected busbars fed by the UPS output, rather than connected directly to the UPS itself. When this is the case, the UPS output cables can be rated to suit the individual distribution network demands rather than being fully load-rated.

NOTE

If more load is added to the distribution panel, the unit’s cabling must be resized.

6.When laying power cables, do not form coils; this will help avoid increasing formation of electromagnetic interference.

NOTE

Left-side access may be required when making power connections. Cable connections should be made before a cabinet is attached to the left side of the NX or before the UPS is placed where another obstruction, such as a wall, is against the NX’s the left side.

10

Electrical Connections

2.1.4Cable Connections

The rectifier input, bypass and output are easily accessible from the left side of the unit for installation. All require lug type terminations. They are connected to busbars on the left side of the NX and below the switch, as shown in Figure 3. These busbars are accessible when the left side panel is removed. Busbars to connect external batteries are accessible from the front of the UPS.

NOTE

External battery connection access requires removal of a protective panel on the lower front of the UPS to the left of the bottom two battery shelves.

Electrical Connections

2.1.5Safety Ground

The safety ground busbar is located below the neutral input and output busbars as shown in Figure 5 below. The safety ground cable must be connected to the ground busbar and bonded to each cabinet in the system.

All cabinets and cable conduit should be grounded in accordance with local regulations.

! WARNING

Failure to follow proper grounding procedures can result in electric shock hazard to personnel or the risk of fire, should a ground fault occur.

NOTE

Proper grounding significantly reduces problems in systems caused by electromagnetic interference.

NOTE

The ground and neutral busbars are easily accessible when the left protective cover plate is removed. Cable connections should be made before a cabinet is attached to the left side of the NX or before the UPS is placed where another obstruction, such as a wall, is against the NX’s the left side.

2.1.6Protective Devices

For safety, it is necessary to install circuit breakers in the input AC supply and external battery battery cabinets, external to the UPS system. Given that every installation has its own characteristics, this section provides guidelines for qualified installation engineers with knowledge of operating practices, regulatory standards and the equipment to be installed.

UPS Rectifier and Bypass Input Supply

•Protection from excessive overcurrents and short circuits in power supply input

External overcurrent protection for the AC output circuit is to be provided. See 6.4 - UPS Electrical Characteristics and Table 12 for overload capacity.

High-speed fuses and SCRs are used for internal battery circuit overcurrent protection. When an external battery supply is used, overcurrent protection for the battery circuit is to be provided by the customer.

•Dual Input

When wiring the UPS with dual inputs, the Rectifier input and the Bypass input must be protected separately. Size the breakers according to the input currents shown in Table 10.

System Output

When using an external distribution panel for load distribution, the output neutral and input neutral must be separated at the input to the UPS.

2.1.7 Cabling Procedure

! CAUTION

The operations described in this section must be performed by authorized electricians or qualified technical personnel. If you have any difficulties, contact your local Liebert representative or Liebert Global Services.

NOTE

Hydraulic pressure pliers, combinative tools and piston ring pliers should be used to connect

AC wiring.

Once the equipment has been positioned and secured for operation, and the battery and ground collars have been connected (see 2.1.4 - Cable Connections), connect the power cables as described below. (Study the reference drawing in 7.0 - Installation Drawings.)

1.Verify that all incoming high and low voltage power circuits are de-energized and locked out or tagged out before installing cables or making any electrical connections.

2.Remove the left side panel to gain easier access to the connections busbars.

3.Connect the safety ground and any easier bonding ground bus cables to the copper ground busbar located on the bottom of the equipment below the power connections. All cabinets in the UPS system must be connected to the user’s ground connection.

NOTE

The grounding and neutral bonding arrangement must comply with the National Electrical

Code and all applicable local codes.

4. Identify and make power connections with incoming cables according to Steps 5 through 11.

Common Input Connections

5.For common bypass and rectifier inputs, connect the AC input supply cables between the power distribution panel and the UPS input busbars (A-B-C terminals) and tighten the connections to 44 lb-in. (5 N-m) using the M6 bolt provided.

6.The input neutral cable must be connected to the input neutral busbar (N). See Figure 5.

Dual Input Connections

7.For bypass connect the AC input supply cables between the power distribution panel and the UPS input busbars (A-B-C terminals) and tighten the connections to 44 lb-in. (5 N-m) using the M6 bolt provided.

8.For Rectifier Input connect AC input supply cables between the power distribution panel and the UPS input circuit breaker (A-B-C terminals)

9.The bypass and rectifier input neutral cables must be connected to the input neutral busbar (N). See Figure 5.

NOTE

Both the rectifier and bypass feeds MUST come from the same utility source, except if the UPS system includes either a configuration F or P external maintenance bypass cabinet.

Output System Connections—Ensure Correct Phase Rotation

10. Connect the system output cables between the UPS output busbars (A-B-C N terminals) and the critical load and tighten the connections to 44 lb-in. (5 N-m) (M6 bolt).

! WARNING
