The product described in this manual is a transformerless Uninterruptible Power System (UPS). It is a true online,
continuous duty, double conversion, solid state, three-phase system, providing conditioned and uninterruptible AC
power to protect the customer’s load from all nine power failures.
1.3.1 GENERAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The UPS’s are used to protect sensitive equipment and prevent loss of valuable electronic information, minimise
equipment downtime, and minimise the adverse effect on production equipment due to unexpected power
problems.
The UPS system continually monitors incoming electrical power and removes the surges, spikes, sags, and other
irregularities that are inherent in commercial utility power. Working with a building‘s electrical system, the UPS
system supplies clean, consistent power that sensitive electronic equipment requires for reliable operation. During
brownouts, blackouts, and other power interruptions, batteries provide emergency power to safeguard operation.
The UPS system is housed in single freestanding cabinets. The cabinets line up and match in style and colour, and
have safety shields behind the doors for hazardous voltage protection.
1.3.1.1 Feature : Unique “Safe-Swappable” Modules
The unique Safe-Swappable feature of the Modules indicates the ability to insert and extract the electronic/power
modules from a larger assembly while it is powered (hot). The safe-swappable design allows live powered modules
to be attached to and removed from a powered set without causing disturbance to the operation of the load and
without need to go to bypass.
1.3.1.2 Feature : Advanced-Booster Technology
Traditional input THD filters are no longer needed with this UPS product. The build-in advanced booster technology
of UPS modules provides perfect sinusoidal input power quality at 0.99 input power factor with harmonic content
less than 3% THD(i). This leads to more reliable total system operation and savings in generator and transformer
sizing as losses in the windings are minimised.
Due to the active front booster, regulating each individual phase, the UPS is comparable to a clean resistor load
(unity) from the mains perspective. Thus, the high input power factor provides minimised cabling and fusing costs
due to no reactive power consumption. The low harmonic currents are due to high input power factor and provide
the benefits:
No additional losses in wires and cables
No extra heating of transformers and generators with shortened service life
No over sizing of generators
No false circuit breaker tripping and malfunction
No erratic operation of computers, telecommunication, monitors, electronic test equipment etc.
No Resonance with power factor correction capacitors
The Flexible Battery Management (FBM) has been designed in all UPS products with the goal to avoid the
deterioration of battery age. The FBM – Key Features protect the battery from environmental negative impacts (high
temperature and false manipulations) and avoid deterioration of battery life by advanced management of battery
charging and preventive failure diagnostics. The implemented features result in benefits not only for the end user,
but also to the environment. The battery user will be required to replace his batteries less often. This translates into
financial and environmental benefits. Last but not least a well protected and managed battery is a healthy battery
and hence it enhance the overall availability of the UPS system.
The major benefits are:
AC-Ripple free battery charging due to DC-DC charger separated from the rectifier and inverter
Wide range of number of battery blocks (20-50 blocks of 12V; depending autonomy times and power)
UPS’S wide input voltage window tolerance extends the battery life due to less discharge cycles
Battery discharge protection caused by load jumps
Proactive battery protection from false manipulations and inadequate charging voltages
Optional temperature compensated charging to enhance battery life
Hence, the function of FBM system is to prolong the battery life considerably compared to traditional systems. In a
traditional online UPS the inverter also causes ripple-current to be fed to batteries causing corrosion.
The UPS product features DPA paralleling technology that provides N+X redundancy without introducing a singlepoint-of-failure. The products utilizing the DPA technology are completely autonomous be means of individual
Power Units, Bypasses, CPU’s, Control Panels and separate battery configuration for each single module.
The DPA technology makes it more reliable than traditional paralleling techniques. A parallel UPS system means
the linking together of two or more UPS units in parallel so that in the unlikely event one fails the other can
automatically take up the load. Traditionally a parallel redundancy configuration is achieved by having a random or
fixed master-slave relationship among the UPS units. This master logic gives out individual commands to all the
slaves units. Unfortunately this can lead to a single-point-of-failure for the whole system because if the master logic
or communication to slaves fails, and causes the whole UPS system to be in trouble.
The DPA technology was developed as a Multi-Master logic concept with separated independent regulation and
logic buses to allow parallel capacity system and to maintain the highest system availability. An industry leading
paralleling technology in its own right, the DPA technology enables you to set up a parallel redundant system giving
you 100% conditioned power at all times. Its unique decentralized design eliminates the system level single point of
failure inherent in traditional parallel UPS, and exponentially increases the reliability of the overall system.
DPA UPScale RI technology allows up to six UPS modules to cover the same load in parallel and redundant
configuration. No vulnerable master logic is needed in this design. It provides automatic load sharing and module
level redundancy with nothing other than the power connecting to the DPA UPScale RITM version of UPS modules.
The UPS system can be housed in a rack independent cabinet of 19”. The following basic UPS systems
configurations are available:

4.1.4 Operating Modes
4.1.4.1 Mode "ON LINE" (INVERTER MODE)
The ON-LINE-Mode is the UPS-Operating Mode in which the load is supplied through the RECTIFIER and
INVERTER.
Using the control panel (see figure 1.1), the UPS can easily be transferred to the ON-LINE-Mode. The ONLINE-Mode provides the highest degree of protection, especially in the event of a mains disturbance or failure.
Section-4
This operating mode is always recommended if the critical loads (computer systems) will not tolerate any
interruption of the supply (not even the shortest).
In the unlikely event of an inverter fault or overload condition the UPS will transfer the load automatically and
without interruption to the static bypass-mains supply (transfer time = 0).
4.1.4.2 Mode"OFF-LINE"(ECO- or BYPASS MODE)
In the "OFF-Line Mode”, the load is supplied from the mains through the static bypass.
Using the control panel (see figure 1.1), the UPS may be easily transferred to "Bypass Mode”.
When the UPS is operating in "Bypass Mode”, the efficiency of the system is higher. In the event of a mains
failure the load will automatically be transferred from mains to inverter within 5 msec (this is valid for single and
parallel systems). The battery charger remains active in the "Bypass-Mode”.
The "Bypass-Mode”, is recommended only if the loads can tolerate interruptions of 3-5 ms (transfer time from
Bypass Mode to ON-LINE Mode).
