IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING

!

Observe all cautions and warnings in this manual. Failure to do so may result in serious
injury or death.

Refer all UPS and battery service to properly trained and qualified service personnel. Do not
attempt to service this product yourself.

Opening or removing the cover may expose you to lethal voltages within this unit even when
it is apparently not operating and the input wiring is disconnected from the electrical source.

Never work alone.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains important safety instructions that must be followed during the installation and
maintenance of the UPS and batteries. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to install or
operate this UPS.

UPS Safety Notes

The UPS contains no user-serviceable parts except the internal battery pack. Do not remove the
cover. Removing the cover may result in electric shock and will invalidate any implied warranty.

The UPS has an internal battery, so the output receptacles of the UPS may carry live voltage even if
the UPS is not connected to mains input power.

Before moving or rewiring the UPS, disconnect mains input power and the battery and make sure
that the UPS is completely shut down. Otherwise, the output terminal may carry live voltage, pre­senting an electric shock hazard.

To ensure human safety and normal UPS operation, the UPS must be properly grounded before use.

When the UPS is connected to an IT power distribution system, the short-circuit protection device
must be installed on the neutral line.

Install and use the UPS in the following environments:

• Temperature: 0°C to 40°C (32-104°F); relative humidity: 0% to 95%)

• Out of direct sunlight

• Away from heat source

• Stable surface, not subject to vibrations or shocks

• Away from dust and other particulates

• Away from corrosive substances, salts and flammable gases

Keep the air inlet and outlet of the UPS unobstructed. Poor ventilation will increase the UPS internal
temperature and can shorten the life of the UPS and its batteries.

Keep liquid and other foreign objects away from the UPS.

In case of fire, use a dry chemical fire extinguisher to put out the fire. Using a fluid fire extinguisher
may cause electric shock.

This UPS is not intended for use with life support and other designated critical devices. Maximum
load must not exceed that shown on the UPS rating label. This UPS is designed for data processing
equipment. If uncertain, consult your local dealer or Emerson representative.

Battery Safety

CAUTION

!

Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The battery may explode.
Do not open or damage the battery. Released electrolyte is harmful to skin and eyes. If

electrolyte comes into contact with the skin, wash the affected area immediately with plenty
of clean water and get medical attention.

CAUTION

!

A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short-circuit current. The following
precautions should be observed when working on batteries:

• Remove watches, rings and other metal objects.

• Use tools with insulated handles.

• Wear rubber gloves and boots.

• Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.

• Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.

• Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If it is inadvertently grounded, remove
the source of the ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electri­cal shock. The likelihood of such shock will be reduced if grounds are removed during
installation and maintenance (applicable to a UPS and a remote battery supply not having
a grounded supply circuit).

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY—The Liebert GXT3 series complies with the limits for a
Class A digital device. Operating this device in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interfer­ence that users must correct at their own expense.

The Liebert GXT3 series complies with the requirements of EMC Directive 2004/108/EC and the pub­lished technical standards. Continued compliance requires installation in accordance with these
instructions and use of accessories approved by Emerson.

Information for the Protection of the Environment

UPS SERVICING—This UPS makes use of components dangerous for the environment (electronic
cards, electronic components). The components removed must be taken to specialized collection and
disposal centers.

1.4 Major Components

The operating principle of the UPS is shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5 Operating principle diagram

Product Description

The UPS is composed of mains input, TVSS and EMI/RFI filters, rectifier/PFC, inverter, battery char­ger, DC-to-DC converter, battery, dynamic bypass and UPS output.

Transient Voltage Surge Suppression (TVSS) and EMI/RFI Filters

The Liebert GXT3 has surge protection and filters that protect the connected load from power surges
and sags, electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). These features
can minimize any surges or interference present in the mains power. The filters also prevent surges
or interference generated by the UPS from adversely affecting other devices connected on the same
branch as the UPS.

6

Product Description

Rectifier/Power Factor Correction (PFC) Circuit

In normal operation, the Liebert GXT3’s rectifier/power factor correction (PFC) circuit converts mains
power to regulated DC power for use by the inverter while ensuring that the wave shape of the input
current used by the UPS is near ideal. Extracting this sine wave input current achieves two objec­tives:

• Efficient power use by the UPS

• Reduced reflected harmonics

This results in cleaner power being available to other devices in the building that are not protected by
the UPS.

Inverter

In normal operation, the Liebert GXT3’s inverter utilizes the DC output of the PFC circuit to produce
precise, regulated sine wave AC power. When mains power fails, the inverter receives DC power from
the battery through the DC-to DC converter. In either operation mode, the UPS inverter is online,
continuously generating clean, precise, regulated AC output power.

Battery Charger

The battery charger utilizes energy from the mains power and precisely regulates it to continuously
float charge the batteries. The batteries are being charged whenever the Liebert GXT3 is plugged in,
even when the UPS is not turned on.

DC-to-DC Converter

The DC-to-DC converter raises the DC voltage from the battery to the optimum operating voltage for
the inverter. This allows the inverter to operate continuously at its optimum efficiency and voltage,
increasing reliability.

Battery

The Liebert GXT3 utilizes valve-regulated, nonspillable, lead acid batteries. To maintain battery
design life, operate the Liebert GXT3 in an ambient temperature of 0°C to 25°C (32°F to 77°F).

Optional external battery cabinets are available to extend battery run times.

Dynamic Bypass

The Liebert GXT3 provides an alternate path for mains power to the connected loads in the unlikely
event of a UPS malfunction. Should the Liebert GXT3 have an overload, overtemperature, or UPS
failure condition, the UPS automatically transfers the connected loads to bypass.

NOTE

The bypass power path does not protect the connected loads from disturbances on the mains.

1.5 Operating Mode

The UPS operation modes include the following: Mains (AC) Mode, Bypass Mode, Battery Mode, Bat­tery Recharge Mode and Frequency Converter Mode.

For the descriptions of operation mode indicators and control buttons, refer to 3.0 - Operation and
Display Panel.

1.5.1 Mains (AC) Mode

During Mains (AC) Mode, the mains provides energy to the Liebert GXT3. The filters, PFC circuit and
inverter process this power to provide high-level power to connected loads. Meanwhile, the UPS main­tains the batteries in a fully charged state.

7

1.5.2 Manual Bypass Mode

Manual Bypass Mode occurs when the Standby/Manual Bypass button is pressed once while the Lie­bert GXT3 is in Mains (AC) Mode. Bypass operation is indicated by an audible alarm and illuminated
amber bypass indicator. (If other indicators are illuminated, refer to 7.0 - Troubleshooting). During
Bypass Mode, mains power bypasses the inverter and provides energy to the connected load.

CAUTION

!

Turning off the UPS in Bypass Mode will result in loss of output power.

1.5.3 Battery Mode

The Liebert GXT3 enters Battery Mode when mains power fails or is outside acceptable values. The
battery system supplies power through the DC-to-DC converter to the inverter to generate clean AC
power for the connected loads.

When the Liebert GXT3 enters Battery Mode, the UPS sounds a half-second beep at 10-second inter­vals. When approximately 2 minutes of run time remains, the beeps sound every 5 seconds to warn
that the battery is getting low (this Low Battery Warning is user-configurable).

In Battery Mode, the AC Input indicator is Off and the Battery Level indicators illuminate to warn
that a mains problem has occurred. Each battery level indicator represents a 20% capacity level. As
capacity decreases, fewer indicators remain illuminated. Refer to 7.0 - Troubleshooting.

For approximate battery run times, refer to 9.0 - Specifications. The times in Table 14 are approxi­mate. They are based on resistive load and an ambient temperature of 25°C (77°F). To increase this
time, turn off non-essential loads (such as idle computers and monitors) or add optional external bat­tery cabinets.

Product Description

CAUTION

!

Turning Off the Liebert GXT3 when it is in Battery Mode will result in loss of output power.
If the UPS is turned Off manually, it must be manually restarted after mains power returns.
If the UPS is turned Off by a communication signal or because the batteries are depleted, it

will operate as selected in the configuration program for Auto-Restart (Refer to 5.2.1 -
Configuration Program).

1.5.4 Battery Recharge Mode

Once mains power is applied to the Liebert GXT3, the Battery Charger begins charging the batteries.

1.5.5 Frequency Converter Mode

All models of the Liebert GXT3 are capable of frequency conversion. Frequency Conversion Mode can
be selected using the configuration program. Allowable frequency operating modes include:

• Auto Sensing - 50Hz or 60 Hz – Bypass Enabled

• Auto Sensing - 50Hz or 60 Hz – Bypass Disabled

• Frequency Converter - 50Hz – Bypass Disabled

• Frequency Converter - 60Hz – Bypass Disabled

NOTE

The default for all models of the Liebert GXT3 is “Auto Sensing - 50Hz or 60 Hz – Bypass
Enabled.”

CAUTION

!

Do not touch the AC input receptacle when the UPS is operating. AC input voltages may still
be present even when the AC input indicator is Off.

5.0 COMMUNICATION

This section describes UPS communication over the three types of communication connections on the
rear of the Liebert GXT3:

• Liebert IntelliSlot port

• USB port (standard B-type)

• Terminal Block Communication

CAUTION

!

To maintain safety (SELV) barriers and for electromagnetic compatibility, signal cables
should be segregated and run separate from all other power cables.

5.1 Liebert IntelliSlot Communication Cards

The Liebert IntelliSlot port accepts three optional cards:

• Liebert IntelliSlot SNMP Card

• Liebert IntelliSlot Relay Card

• Liebert IntelliSlot 485 Card.

The Liebert IntelliSlot SNMP Card provides SNMP monitoring and control of the UPS across the net­work.

Communication

The Liebert IntelliSlot Relay Card provides dry contact relay outputs for custom-wired applications
and delivers support for built-in shutdown for AS/400 systems.

The Liebert IntelliSlot 485 Card is used to connect the UPS and computer system.

Follow instructions provided with the Liebert IntelliSlot card to configure Liebert MultiLink, the UPS
or any additional ancillary product for the Liebert GXT3. These instructions are available at:

multilink.liebert.com

5.1.1 Liebert MultiLink

Liebert MultiLink monitors the UPS continuously and can shut down the computer or server in the
event of an extended power failure. Liebert MultiLink can also be configured to shut down the UPS.

Liebert MultiLink can also be configured for use without the USB cable when the Liebert IntelliSlot
SNMP Card or Liebert IntelliSlot Web Card is installed in the UPS. An optional Liebert MultiLink
License Kit permits shutting down the UPS over a network.

For more information about the Liebert IntelliSlot SNMP Card, Liebert IntelliSlot Web Card and Lie­bert MultiLink License Kits, visit the Liebert Web site (www.liebert.com) or contact your local
Emerson representative.

5.3.1 Any Mode Shutdown

The purpose of Any Mode Shutdown is to shut down the UPS output by turning Off the rectifier,
inverter and static switch so that there is no power to the loads.

Communication

Any Mode Shutdown can be operated locally or remotely:

• Local Any Mode Shutdown can be performed by shorting Pin 1 and Pin 2.

• Remote Any Mode Shutdown can be performed using a switch connected to Pin 1 and Pin 2 and
mounted at a remote location.

NOTE

Remote Power Off will be performed either by NO or NC contact of Any Mode Shutdown,
depending on the settings in the configuration program.

A current-limited source (+12VDC, 50mA) will be available from the UPS.

The connection to the UPS for remote connection will be via terminal block connector.

Any Mode Shutdown wiring must conform to all national, regional and local wiring
regulations.

WARNING

!

When the Auto-Enable output option is selected and the UPS output is disabled using Pin 1
and Pin 2, the Liebert GXT3’s output can turn On automatically and without warning if the
Pin 1 and Pin 2 connection is changed.

23

5.3.2 Battery Mode Shutdown

Battery Mode Shutdown permits shutting down the UPS by turning off the rectifier, inverter and
static switch so that there is no power to the load when the UPS is On Battery. The auxiliary power
for the UPS will still be active.

Battery Mode Shutdown can be performed locally or remotely:

• Local Battery Mode shutdown can be performed by shorting Pin3 and Pin4.

• Remote Battery Mode Shutdown can be performed using a switch connected to Pin3 and Pin4 and
mounted at remote location.

NOTE

Remote Power Off will be performed by NO contact.

The current-limited source (+12VDC, 50mA) will be available from UPS.

The connection to the Liebert GXT3 for remote connection will be via terminal block connector.

Battery Mode Shutdown wiring must conform to all national, regional and local wiring codes
and laws.

This signal must last for 1.5 seconds or longer.

A battery shutdown signal will not cause an immediate shutdown. It will start a 2-minute
shutdown timer. This timer cannot be stopped once triggered. If the mains power returns
during this countdown, the Liebert GXT3 will still shut down and must remain shut down for
10 seconds. Whether the UPS turns back on when the power is restored depends on the
auto-restart setting.

Communication

5.3.3 On Battery

On Battery signal is a Normally Open (NO) dry contact. When the UPS is supplying output power
from the battery this dry contact will be closed.

5.3.4 Low Battery

Low Battery signal is a Normally Open (NO) dry contact. When the UPS is supplying output power
from the battery and has reached the Low Battery Warning time selected in the configuration pro­gram, this dry contact will be closed.

NOTE

The rated values for the dry contacts are:

• Rated Voltage: 5V

• Working Voltage Range: 4.5-10V

NOTE

The internal battery pack is hot-swappable. However, caution should be exercised because
during this procedure the load is unprotected from disturbances and power outages.

Do not replace the battery while the UPS is in Battery Mode. This will result in a loss of output
power and will drop the connected load.

6.2 Battery Charging

The batteries are valve-regulated, nonspillable, lead acid and should be kept charged to attain their
design life. The Liebert GXT3 charges the batteries continuously when it is connected to the mains
input power.

Maintenance

If the Liebert GXT3 will be stored for a long time, Emerson recommends connecting the UPS to input
power for at least 24 hours every four to six months to ensure full recharge of the batteries.

WARNING

!

The battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. The following
precautions should be observed before replacing the battery pack:

• Remove rings, watches and other metal objects.

• Use tools with insulated handles.

• Do not lay tools or other metal objects on the batteries.

• If the battery kit is damaged in any way or shows signs of leakage, contact your local Emer­son representative immediately.

• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.

• Handle, transport and recycle batteries in accordance with local regulations.

6.3 Precautions

Although the Liebert GXT3 has been designed and manufactured to ensure personal safety, improper
use can result in electrical shock or fire. To ensure safety, observe the following precautions:

• Turn Off and unplug the Liebert GXT3 before cleaning it.

• Clean the UPS with a dry cloth. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

• Never block or insert any objects into the ventilation holes or other openings of the UPS.

• Do not place the Liebert GXT3 power cord where it might be damaged.

6.4 Checking UPS Status

Emerson recommends checking the UPS operation status every six months.

• Check whether the UPS is faulty: Is the Fault Indicator on? Is the UPS sounding an alarm?

• Check whether the UPS is operating in Bypass Mode. Normally, the UPS operates in Normal
Mode. If it is operating in Bypass Mode, stop and contact your local Emerson representative, or
Emerson Channel Support.

• Check whether the battery is discharging. When the mains input is normal, the battery should
not discharge. If the UPS is operating in Battery Mode, stop and contact your local Emerson rep­resentative or Emerson Channel Support.

26

6.5 Checking UPS Functions

NOTE

UPS function check procedures may interrupt power supply to the connected load.

Emerson recommends checking the UPS functions once every six months.

Back up the load data before conducting the UPS functions check. Procedures are as follows:

1. Press the Standby/Manual Bypass button to check whether the buzzer and indicators are normal.

2. Press the On/Alarm Silence/Manual Battery Test button to check again whether the indicators
are on and the UPS is operating normally.

3. Press the On/Alarm Silence/Manual Battery Test button for three seconds after Inverter Mode.
The UPS should initiate a battery self-test. Check to determine whether the battery is operating
normally. If not, stop and contact your local Emerson representative or Emerson Channel Support
