EATON Powerware®9315 UPS (500–750 kVA) Installation and Operation Manual S 164201691 Rev 1 www.powerware.com

Chapter 1 Introduction

Figure 1Table 1

The Eaton®Powerware®9315 (500–750 kVA) uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is an
online power protection system that prevents loss of valuable electronic information,
minimizes equipment downtime, and minimizes the adverse effect on equipment
production because of unexpected power problems.

The Powerware 9315 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 your building’s electrical system, the UPS
system supplies clean, consistent power that your sensitive electronic equipment
requires for reliable operation. During brownouts, blackouts, and other power
interruptions, optional battery strings provide emergency power to safeguard
operation.

The UPS system is housed in a free-standing cabinet, divided into three sections to
facilitate shipping. The cabinet sections line up and match in style and color, and have
safety shields behind the doors for hazardous voltage protection. Figure 1-1 shows a
typical Powerware 9315 (500–750 kVA) UPS system.

1.2 Options and Accessories

Contact your Eaton sales representative for information about the following options:

1.2.1 5% Input Filter

The UPS can be equipped with an input filter. An input filter yields power factor
correction that allows you to save on your initial installation and operating costs. The
filter also reduces input harmonic current distortion and minimizes upstream
interference that can damage sensitive hardware components.

1.2.2 Battery Racks

You can enhance the protection time provided by the UPS system by adding one or
more battery racks. The battery racks should be equipped with sealed,
maintenance-free, lead-acid batteries. An external battery disconnect switch must be
used. See Chapter 4, “Installing a Remote Battery Disconnect,” for additional
information.

INTRODUCTION

1.2.3 External Fused Battery Disconnect

An optional external DC disconnect provides an automatic or manual means of
disconnecting a battery string from the UPS. The disconnect is enclosed in a
floor-mounted, free-standing box. You can install it anywhere between the remote DC
supply and the UPS, according to national and local codes.

The breaker switch on the remote battery disconnect is set according to the operation
procedures in Chapter 9, “UPS Operating Instructions.” When service personnel are
performing maintenance on the UPS or battery string, the switch should be set to the
OFF position. See Chapter 4, “Installing a Remote Battery Disconnect,” for battery
disconnect requirements and installation instructions.

1.2.4 Upgrade Capability

The UPS is available in various output power ratings in both 50 and 60 Hz models. If
your power requirements increase, you can upgrade the UPS system to provide more
output power with a minimum impact on your facility.

1.2.5 Parallel Capacity/Redundant System

With Powerware Hot Sync technology and a System Bypass Module (SBM), the
Parallel Capacity/Redundant System allows two to eight uninterruptible power
modules (UPMs) to operate in parallel to provide more capacity than a single UPM
and as backup for each other. The parallel capacity/redundant system can supply up to
4000A, depending on the SBM used. In addition, when one UPM is taken out of
service for maintenance or is not operating properly, the redundant UPM continues to
supply uninterrupted power to the critical load.

2.1 Creating an Installation Plan

Before installing the UPS system, read and understand how this manual applies to the
system being installed. Use the procedures and illustrations in the following chapters
to create a logical plan for installing the system.

2.1.1 Preparing Your Site

For the UPS system to operate at peak efficiency, the installation site should meet
the environmental parameters outlined in this manual. If the UPS is to be operated at
an altitude higher than 1500m (5000 ft), contact your Eaton service representative for
important information about high altitude operation. The operating environment must
meet the weight, clearance, and environmental requirements specified in
paragraph A.1 starting on page A-1.

The UPS cabinets use forced air cooling to regulate internal component temperature.
Air inlets are in the front of the cabinet and outlets are in the top. You must allow
clearance in front of and above each cabinet for proper air circulation (see Table B on
page A-1).

2.1.2 Environment Considerations

The life of the UPS system is adversely affected if the installation does not meet the
following guidelines:

1. The system must be installed on a level, sealed concrete pad or floor.

2. The system must be installed in a temperature-controlled indoor area free of

conductive contaminants.

Failure to follow guidelines may void your warranty.
