Chapter 1 Introduction

The Eaton® 9170+ uninterruptible power system (UPS) is a modular UPS that contains battery modules and power control modules (referred to as power modules). These modules plug into a rack cabinet structure containing additional control, communication, and display functions that enable integrated control of all power modules. The UPS is housed in a single cabinet, with extra battery capacity housed in auxiliary battery cabinets.
The pluggable power modules can be removed and replaced (hot-swapped) without powering the UPS down if the UPS has sufficient redundant capacity. Battery modules may also be hot-swapped for maintenance. Power control circuitry in the cabinet senses problems in power modules, and automatically transfers control and load to the remaining power modules.
All power modules share the load requirements equally. For example, three power modules are capable of supplying a total of 9 kVA. If a load requires only 4.5 kVA, each power module supplies 1.5 kVA to the output. If one power module is removed or for some reason fails, each of the two remaining power modules would supply half of the load, or
2.25 kVA. In other words, redundancy exists when the load can be supplied by less than all of the installed power modules.
The UPS can be configured with up to seven power and/or optional battery charger modules; its output is limited such that an excess number of power modules allow the failure of one or more modules without causing the UPS to lose any functionality.
To permit UPS removal from the power path while maintaining power to the loads, an external bypass switch is required. This switch is optional but recommended for system serviceability.

All cabinet sizes require the following clearances to allow for servicing and adequate ventilation:
S Sides: 15.2 cm (6”) S Top and back: 30.5 cm (12”) S Front: 91.5 cm (36”)
If flexible conduit connects the UPS to the service input and load distribution panels, you may be able to gain access for servicing by moving the UPS. If this is the case, you must still leave 30.5 cm (12”) clearance at the back and 15.2 cm (6) at the sides of the UPS for ventilation.
NOTE Do not block the ventilation holes on each side and the back of the cabinet.
Nine- and 12-slot external battery cabinets may be installed with bases tight against the UPS cabinet base and against each other. Six-slot cabinets require 15.2 cm (6) of separation.

Bypass Switches

22
Eaton 9170+ UPS (3–18 kVA) User's Guide S 164201393 Rev E www.eaton.com/powerquality
Bypass switches are available in two types: Make-Before-Break (MBB) and Break-Before-Make (BBM).
An MBB switch makes a new connection before it breaks the original connection. For example, if you turn an MBB switch from UPS to LINE, the bypass switch connects the load to AC input power before disconnecting the load from UPS output power. (As noted in Figure 38 on page 57, MBB switches may not be used in certain system configurations.)
A BBM switch breaks the original connection before it makes a new one. If you turn a BBM switch from UPS to LINE, the switch disconnects the load from UPS output power before connecting the load to AC input power.
The bypass switch has four positions as described in Table 3.
Page 29
UPS WITH BYPASS ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
NOTE In the UPS or LINE position, AC input power is still connected to the input terminals inside the UPS.
Table 3. Bypass Switch Positions
Switch Position Description
LINE Connects the load directly to AC input power and disconnects UPS output. AC input power is
still connected to the UPS input.
OFF Disconnects the load from the UPS output power and AC input power, as well as AC input
power to the UPS input.
UPS Connects the UPS output to the load.
SERVICE Like the LINE position, SERVICE connects the load directly to AC input power and disconnects
UPS output. However, because SERVICE also disconnects AC input from the UPS, this is
the appropriate position for UPS maintenance or repair.

Bypass Switch Operation

The bypass switch consists of a load position handle and a red button (see Figure 13).
The red button:
S Sends an electrical signal to the UPS to switch to the internal Bypass
mode (if it is not already operating in that mode).
S Operates a mechanical interlock, to prevent the switch from being
turned without first signaling the UPS.
For MBB switches, you must press the red button before you can turn the load position handle.
When the red button is pressed the UPS front panel displays “Manual Bypass.” The load position handle can now be turned from the UPS to LINE position or from the LINE to UPS position.

UPS Installation with an External Bypass Switch

W
A R N I N G
Only qualified service personnel (such as a licensed electrician) should perform the electrical installation. Risk of electrical shock.
C A U T I O N
To prevent electrical shock or damage to the equipment, verify that the Eaton 9170+ UPS is OFF before you remove the entrance panel. The circuit breaker or disconnect switch must also be off at the AC input service panel. Also, turn OFF the AC disconnect and bypass switches before you connect any wires to the bypass switch terminal strip.
To install the UPS with an external bypass switch:
1. Mount the bypass switch within sight of the UPS. If you do not
have an Eaton bypass switch or the fuse box or panel is out of sight, you must install a separate disconnect switch next to the UPS.
The bypass switch should be mounted securely to a sturdy surface. You may need to turn the cabinet 90 degrees (on its side) to enable operator access to the switch handle.
26
2. Remove the six screws in the bypass switch front cover and
remove the cover. Remove any packing material inside the bypass switch.
3. Remove knockouts in the bottom of the bypass switch for AC Line
Input, AC to UPS Input, AC from UPS Output, and AC to the UPS load.
4. Unscrew and remove the rear cover(s) of the UPS (top cover on 3-
or 6-slot; top two covers on 9- or 12-slot). See Figure 14.
The entrance panel contains knockout openings for entrance and exit conduits and for conduit to an optional external battery cabinet. The entrance panel is located on the top 3-slot section for 3- and 6-slot cabinets; on the second section for 9- and 12-slot cabinets as shown in Figure 14.
Wiring for optional emergency power-off (EPO) and bypass input signals passes through the opening at the top back of the cabinet. Wiring for an optional generator input signal must pass through a separate opening. Installing this wiring is described in Steps 14 and 15 on page 33.

9. Wire the UPS for the proper input voltage as shown in Figure 17.
Split-phase power modules (model ASY-0673, with brown labels on the front) are capable of supplying two output voltages: 100/100 for 200, 110/110 for 220, 120/120 for 240, 120/120 for 208, or 127/127 for 220 Vac, as selected through the front panel display. These modules produce two output voltages, typically required in North America, South America, and Japan.
Universal power modules (model ASY-0674, with black labels on the front) are capable of supplying a single-phase output voltage: 200, 208, 220, 230, or 240 Vac, as selected through the front panel display. These modules produce a single output voltage, typically required in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa.
Confirm that the UPS is wired for the proper input voltage as shown in Figure 17, and that the proper power modules (either split-phase or universal) are installed to produce the desired output voltage. Do not mix the two types of power modules in the same UPS cabinet.

W A R N I N G
Only qualified service personnel (such as a licensed electrician) should perform the electrical installation. Risk of electrical shock.
If a bypass switch is not used, the UPS input may be hardwired through conduit to a main power source circuit breaker, and the UPS output may either be hardwired to a circuit breaker in a distribution panel (as shown in Figure 25) or supplied to loads through receptacles on the back of the UPS. Without a bypass switch, power to the load cannot be maintained if the UPS is taken completely offline.

UPS Electrical Installation
Only qualified service personnel (such as a licensed electrician) should perform the electrical installation. Risk of electrical shock.
To prevent electrical shock or damage to the equipment, verify that the Eaton 9170+ UPS is OFF before you remove the entrance panel. The circuit breaker or disconnect switch must also be OFF at the AC input service panel.
To install the UPS without an external bypass switch:
1. Unscrew and remove the rear cover(s) of the UPS (top cover on 3-
or 6-slot; top two covers on 9- or 12-slot). See Figure 26.
The entrance panel contains knockout openings for entrance and exit conduits and for conduit to an optional external battery cabinet. The entrance panel is located on the top 3-slot section for 3- and 6-slot cabinets; on the second section for 9- and 12-slot cabinets as shown in Figure 26.

Chapter 7 UPS Startup

This section provides step-by-step instructions for starting your Eaton 9170+ system. Follow these procedures closely to avoid potential damage to your equipment or the UPS and to protect yourself and others from hazardous operating conditions.
S This UPS contains its own energy source (batteries). The output receptacles may carry
hazardous voltage even when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply. When AC input voltage is present, the Eaton 9170+ system can provide output voltage even though its batteries are disconnected. To confirm that there is no UPS output voltage, always disconnect all of the AC input sources and unplug all strings of internal battery modules; if the UPS has one or more separate battery cabinets, open (push in) the DC disconnect switch button on each battery cabinet or unplug all battery strings in each battery cabinet.
S To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, install this UPS in a temperature and humidity
controlled, indoor environment, free of conductive contaminants. Ambient temperature must not exceed 40°C (104°F). Do not operate near water or excessive humidity (95% maximum).
S For optimum battery life, ambient temperature should not exceed 25°C (77°F). Battery
life is substantially reduced if ambient temperature is higher.

Chapter 8 Operation

The Eaton 9170+ UPS operates in several different modes. Normally it operates under internal control (Auto mode) to automatically protect loads connected to it. An operator can enable manual override should servicing or testing be required.
Figure 52 shows the operating modes. In Auto mode, the UPS automatically switches between modes depending on line and load conditions.
Double Conversion
(line conditioning)
Battery Off
Figure 52. UPS Operating Modes Under Auto Mode Control
Internal Bypass
Double Conversion mode produces output power from the internal DC bus. The AC input power is rectified and boosted to supply this DC bus. The UPS switches automatically to and from Battery mode with no interruption (0 ms transfer time) as AC input power drops and returns. Batteries are charged in this mode.
Battery mode produces power from the batteries to supply the internal DC bus.
Internal Bypass (Bypass) mode shunts power flow around the DC/AC internal circuitry to keep the output powered with no line conditioning. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and surge circuitry still protect the loads from voltage spikes and noise.
High Efficiency (H.E.) mode is a user-programmable automatic mode that allows power to flow through the internal UPS bypass path for as long as AC input stays within the user-defined set points. If the input voltage or frequency deviates beyond these set points, the UPS transfers to Double Conversion mode. Complete loss of input voltage causes the UPS to transfer to Battery mode. While in H.E. mode, the UPS provides passive EMI filtering in the power path.

Off mode turns off the output and most internal circuitry. Within this mode, Sleep mode turns off all internal circuitry when AC line is not present and battery voltage drops to a low threshold. If AC input voltage is not present in Off mode, the user can direct the UPS to enter Sleep mode by selecting the Battery Protect (BP) feature (see “Removing Input Power” on page 79). When AC input voltage returns in the Off mode (caused by a low battery alarm condition), the UPS automatically recovers and, if the Auto Restart parameter is enabled, switches to Double Conversion mode. Auto Restart is enabled as a factory-default.
After a discharge and subsequent low-battery shutdown, the UPS automatically recovers from Sleep mode if the Auto Restart parameter is enabled.

Turning the UPS On

The unit has no physical On/Off switch. Access the UPS On/Off function through the front panel display.
If the UPS is off, press the ON button through the front panel display to turn the UPS on again.
If the UPS has been manually set to operate in Bypass or Battery mode, change the System Control Mode Preference (menu 4 1) selection to Auto to return to normal Auto mode operation.
NOTE The UPS will not start operating if AC input voltage or frequency is beyond acceptable limits or if the system mode selection is set to Battery. The UPS can not go directly from Off to Battery.

Removing Input Power

Always transfer the UPS to Off mode before removing input power. The batteries will discharge if the input line voltage is disconnected or turned off without first turning off the UPS.
OPERATION
If the input power source will be disconnected or turned off for more than a day or two, transfer the UPS to Sleep mode: turn the UPS off, remove AC input power, press the On button, and then select Battery Protect (BP). Sleep mode allows the UPS to remain unpowered for up to six months without having to remove or recharge batteries.
Failure to properly power down the UPS could permanently damage any installed batteries. Also, if batteries become severely discharged, the UPS might not start immediately when input power is restored.

COMMUNICATION
ConnectUPSt Web/SNMP Card (BD Model)
The ConnectUPS-BD Web/SNMP Card provides the Eaton 9170+ system with its own ethernet network connection, allowing it to be remotely monitored and controlled via industry-standard Internet browsers. The HTML interface enables UPS monitoring and management from anywhere on the Internet or within your intranet. In addition, third-party Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) software packages may also be used to communicate remotely with the Eaton 9170+ system.
The ConnectUPS-BD Web/SNMP Card also allows UPS-dependent computer systems to automatically shut down during extended power outages using the NetWatch client software provided on the Software Suite CD or Web site.

Relay Interface Card (BestDock Model)

The BestDock Relay Interface Card provides true relay contact output to peripheral devices. Outputs are user-selectable as normally open or normally closed. Refer to the instructions included with the relay card for more detail.

Dedicated Input Signals

Emergency Power-off: Connection to a facility Emergency Shutdown switch provides a method for emergency Eaton 9170+ system shutdown. Opening this connection creates an immediate shutdown of the Eaton 9170+ UPS output.
Bypass: The signal from an external bypass switch, to isolate the Eaton 9170+ system for maintenance purposes, tells the UPS to go into Internal Bypass mode.

Page 97
COMMUNICATION
On-Generator: An external signal can indicate that the input power is being supplied by a generator. Closure of this contact causes the UPS to change the following parameters to preset values that are designed to optimize performance during periods of generator instability:
S Phase Lock Window and Frequency Slew Rate. These parameters
increase the rate at which the UPS tracks the input line, which causes fewer recognized line faults during generator instability.
S Frequency Glitch Count. This parameter increases the number of bad
frequency cycles before the unit transfers to battery power, allowing the UPS to operate smoothly during generator instability without transferring to battery.
S Maximum Delta and Line Delta. These parameters widen the
acceptable input voltage range, allowing the UPS to ignore any transient voltage regulation problems a generator may experience during unstable periods.
These parameters are also available to trained service personnel through the Service Menu.
See Figure 14 on page 27 and Figure 21 on page 33 to make the connection for all dedicated input signals.

DB-9 Communication Port

Table 13 explains the functions of the pins on the Eaton 9170+ DB-9 communication port. This port is on the Eaton 9170+ UPS rear panel, as shown in Figure 49 on page 69.
Table 13. DB-9 Port Signals
Pin Function Description
1 Low Battery Alarm Pin 1 shifts from RS-232 Low (positive voltage) to RS-232 High (negative voltage) and
remains high whenever the UPS enters a Low Battery alarm state.
2 RS-232 Transmit Data Sends outgoing RS-232 communication data at 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.

9 No Connection/
DC Supply Voltage
RS-232 Receive Data Function. Receives incoming RS-232 communication data at 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.
RS-232 Shutdown Function. If Pin 3 receives an RS-232 Low signal (+Vdc) for at least 5 seconds, but not more than 7 seconds, during an AC Failure condition, the UPS output shuts off following a delay of 120 seconds (±5 seconds).
S The UPS output shuts off even if the normal AC input power is restored during the
120 second delay.
S The UPS output automatically restarts after the UPS determines the normal AC
input power is stable.
S The shutdown and restart timing represented by the functionality of Pin 3 is
independent from the shutdown and restart timing specified from the host software.
Pin 8 shifts from RS-232 Low (positive voltage) to RS-232 High (negative voltage) and remains high for 15 seconds (±1 second) after the UPS detects an AC Failure condition, assuming the condition still exists after the 15 seconds.
When the AC Failure condition no longer exists, the signal returns to the RS-232 Low state (positive voltage).
The UPS is factory-set with Pin 9 disconnected, but can be enabled through a technician-replaceable jumper inside the UPS. The jumper setting MUST be changed by a qualified service technician.
When enabled, Pin 9 provides supply voltage for use with external connectivity devices requiring DC power directly from the UPS DB-9 port (nominal 12 Vdc/5W; 8V minimum, 24V maximum). Use only Eaton brand connectivity devices.
