Eaton 9170+ UPS (3–18 kVA) User's Guide S 164201393 Rev E www.eaton.com/powerquality
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.

INSTALLATION SETUP
Location Requirements
Install the Eaton 9170+ UPS as close as possible to the equipment or
the load distribution panel it will protect. If this distance is more than
7.6m (25 ft), transient noise can reappear in the electrical distribution
system.
If a separate external battery cabinet is installed, the battery cabinets
must be adjacent to the Eaton 9170+ UPS. If the batteries will be farther
from the cabinet than the standard cables allow, contact your service
representative or your local distributor for assistance.
UPS Setup
The Eaton 9170+ UPS is shipped in a carton on a shipping pallet. Power
and battery modules are shipped in separate boxes on another pallet.
Three-slot cabinets and modules are shipped on one pallet. Refer to the
unpacking instruction sheet (LTS-1724) packed inside the UPS shipping
carton.
NOTE Verify that all Eaton 9170+ UPS power modules are the proper type for the UPS
cabinet: Split-phase power modules have brown labels; universal (single-phase) power
modules have black labels. Do not mix brown and black modules in the same UPS cabinet.

Eaton 9170+ UPS (3–18 kVA) User's Guide S 164201393 Rev E www.eaton.com/powerquality
To install the caster cart:
1. Place the caster cart (shipped separately from the UPS cabinet)
under the cabinet before installing power and battery modules and
before making connections to the intended power source.
The cart requires no bolts or other hardware to fasten it to the UPS
cabinet. It is shaped to fit securely under the cabinet, ensuring
proper alignment after placing the cabinet on the cart.
2. Four foot pads under the cart keep the cart from rolling when it is in
its intended location. Turn each threaded foot to lower it to the
floor. When the foot is tight against the floor, turn the locknut on
the threaded foot up tight against the bottom of the cart to keep the
foot from rotating.
3. If leveling of the UPS is required, use the foot pads to raise a side
or corner before locking them with their locknuts.
Stabilizer Bracket Installation (Twelve-Slot Cabinet Only)
The 12-slot Eaton 9170+ UPS cabinet is shipped with two stabilizer
brackets. These brackets must be attached to the wall or the floor
behind the UPS cabinet. Under all module-loading conditions, they act as
a protective stop to prevent the cabinet from falling forward if it is
unintentionally pushed away from the wall.
INSTALLATION SETUP
Each bracket has holes that enable it to be attached by screws to either
the wall or the floor (or both) behind the intended cabinet installation
(see Figure 8). The stabilizer brackets are not attached to the cabinet
base itself.
To install the stabilizer brackets:
1. Select the location for the brackets, approximately 30–41 cm
(12–16”) apart, at the floor/wall intersection behind the intended
cabinet location.
2. Using the proper type of customer-supplied screws for the intended
mounting surface, attach each bracket as shown in Figure 8. All
screws must be driven into structural material such as wall studs.
3. Roll the UPS cabinet to its intended location. Position the rear
section of the cabinet base under the open ends of the stabilizer
brackets as far as the cabinet will go.

(16 for 6-slot cabinets) or other appropriate customer-specified
screws.
Floor Anchor Kit Installation
An optional floor anchor kit (ASY-0548) is available for all sizes of the
Eaton 9170+ UPS. The kit helps to stabilize the UPS or battery cabinet in
the event of accidental bumps or small floor movements. Any testing to
specific seismic requirements is the responsibility of the customer.
The floor anchor brackets, shipped separately from the UPS and battery
cabinet, should be attached inside the lower front and rear edges of the
cabinet before installing power and battery modules and before making
connections to the intended power source.
Use mounting hardware supplied with the floor anchor kit to attach the
brackets to the UPS or external battery cabinet (see Figure 11). The
customer is responsible for specifying and supplying floor mounting
bolts.

page 61 for installing optional battery cabinets or to “UPS Startup” on page 67.
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.
The Eaton 9170+ UPS input power may be hardwired through conduit to
either a main power source circuit breaker or to an optional external
bypass switch. For hardwired installations, it is recommended that you
install an Eaton bypass switch to enable power transfer during
maintenance or UPS downtime. If a bypass switch is used, both UPS
input and UPS output must be hardwired — through separate
conduits — to the bypass switch, as shown in Figure 12.

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.
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.
