LIEBERT PACKAGED POWER SYSTEM ADVANTAGES COMPARED TO CONVENTIONAL, B
UILT-UP SYSTEMS
Desirable Features Conventional Built-Up Systems Liebert Packaged Power System
Proven System Design
No. Each site is a one-of-a-kind installation.
“Design” depends on engineer and installer.
Yes. Liebert power systems are complete, proven-design, factory tested to ensure consistent performance. Designed-in distribution flexibility accommodates all installation sites.
Agency Approved
Not as a system. Even though listed
components may be used, site-fabricated distribution is subject to acceptance by local inspecting authorities.
Yes. UL listing as a complete system is an assurance of safety.
Factory Tested
No. Testing of performance is done at the site,
if at all.
Yes. Factory testing the complete system ensures performance and safety of the system.
Power Quality Improvement
Doubtful. Because of the variables in design
and installation, site-fabricated distribution does not consistently offer computer-grade power isolation or ground systems.
Yes. Because packaged power systems have shielded isolation transformers close to the load, they offer power line noise attenuation and controlled grounding.
Computer-Grade Grounding
Difficult. Since site-fabricated distribution
seldom includes an isolation transformer in the computer room, a local single point ground system that minimizes common mode disturbances is difficult to establish.
Yes. The packaged power system with isolation transformer automatically establishes a local single-point ground for the critical load. The power grounding point is the same as the computer system grounding point, minimizing common mode disturbances.
Secure Distribution
Possibly. Only if the entire distribution panel is
dedicated to the computer and the panel is in the computer room.
Yes. Power distribution panel is in the computer room. Access is limited to authorized personnel.
Circuit Identification
Possibly. Circuit number and receptacle
references might be supplied, depending on the installing electrician and available information.
Yes. Identification tags adjacent to each circuit breaker provide circuit identification and description of load served. Each cable is tagged with circuit number and cable length.
Monitoring
Seldom. Some add-on monitoring systems are
available, but monitoring also depends on the installing electrician and available information.
Yes. Built-in power parameter monitoring, alarm, and control capabilities are standard in packaged power systems.
Ease of Installation
No. All site-fabricated distribution wiring
becomes part of premises wiring.
Yes. A packaged system requires only a single connection to the premises wiring.
Easy System Expansion
No. Conduit installation and wire pulling is time-
consuming, and can hamper operations while in progress.
Yes. New cable(s) can be routed quickly with minimal disruption.
Easy System Rearrangement
No. Site-fabricated distribution cannot be easily
rearranged. Old conduit and wiring must be removed and new installed.
Yes. Even after major equipment rearrangement, redistributing power from packaged systems becomes a simple matter of re-routing the flexible interconnecting cables.
Easy To Move
No. New distribution must be built at the new
site and old conduit and wiring usually must be removed from the former site.
Yes. The package is easily moved with the computer system to the new site.

STANDARD FEATURES FOR ALL SYSTEMS
All Liebert distribution and conditioning systems incorporate standard features that ensure load pro­tection and simplify maintenance.
Precision Power Centers use quality, dry type, shielded isolation transformers for noise reduction up to 120 dB, with harmonic voltage distortion of
0.5 percent. Depending on kVA capacity, output impedance is between 3 and 5.5 percent, while full­load efficiency is between 96.5 and 98 percent.
The transformer has temperature sensors in the windings to provide an alarm if internal temperature exceeds 180°C. It will shut down the system if inter­nal temperature exceeds 200°C. Full Class H 220°C transformer insulation and all copper windings are used for long life and efficient operation.
A main input circuit breaker provides either manual control, or automatic shutdown of the system in the event of an overcurrent condition. The breaker is sized for 125 percent of the system input full load amperes. In addition to manual and thermal-mag­netic trip, the input breaker can be tripped by an electrically actuated shunt trip mechanism. As a standard feature, the shunt trip of the input circuit breaker is activated by the 200°C temperature sen­sor, local Emergency Power Off switch, and Manual Restart circuit.
The local Emergency Power Off (EPO) switch is an illuminated push button, easily accessible for emer­gency shutdown, but fully guarded by a hinged cover to prevent accidental operation.
The manual restart circuit shunt-trips the main input breaker whenever input power fails. This iso­lates the system from repetitive power applications during fault-clearing operations by the utility, and allows an orderly restart of the system when normal power returns.
The manual restart circuit can be disabled by the manual restart select switch. The auto position of the switch defeats manual restart, and allows the condi­tioner to automatically restart when power returns. Auto restart is useful for unattended remote sites where the load can automatically restart, and in
those applications where the manual restart function is provided elsewhere in the system.
The low-voltage shunt trip circuit also allows system shutdown by external relays, Remote Emergency Power Off (REPO) switches, or other remote devices.
A double-pole, double-throw (dpdt) building interface relay is powered by a 24 VDC supply from the output of the unit. Energized whenever the system is on, the relay drops out if the output voltage disappears. The relay can be used for remote alarming of system shutdown, or shutdown interface with additional loads such as environmental control units.
Power conditioner system components are housed in a welded steel frame with removable panels for max­imum accessibility to the interior. For safety and security, any panels that provide access to high volt­age require a tool for removal.
Panelboards
One 42-pole panelboard is provided on 15 and 30 kVA Precision Power Centers. Two 42-pole panel­boards (for a total of 84 poles) are provided on 50 through 125 kVA Precision Power Centers. Three 42-pole panelboards (for a total of 126 poles) are pro­vided on 150 through 225 kVA Precision Power Cen­ters. (The three-panelboard configuration is not available on Top Exit units.) Each panelboard is enclosed for safety and has individual isolated neu­tral and safety ground busbars.
Each panelboard is protected by a main circuit breaker, which also allows manual shutdown of the entire panelboard without affecting the other panel­board(s).
Output circuits are protected by single-, two-, or three-pole thermal-magnetic molded-case branch cir­cuit breakers sized specifically for the load to be served. (Standard panelboards use plug-in breakers.)

ADDITIONAL FEATURES FOR ALL SYSTEMS
Flexible Output Cables and Terminations
A flexible output cable system is available for Precision Power Centers. Insulated cable conduc­tors are protected by jack­eted, liquid-tight, flexible steel conduit with an inte­gral copper shielding con­ductor. Each output cable is fabricated to the specified length and type of ter­mination to match the equipment it will be connected to. “Add-on” UL listed cables for field installation are also available.
Terminations include receptacles to match equip­ment plugs and conduit termination fittings with conductor pigtails for hard wire connection.
Additional Pole Capacity
Additional panelboard pole capacity is available for all power distribution units.
An additional 42-pole panelboard can be added to the Precision Power Center for a total of 84 poles.
The Precision Power Center can have three 42-pole panelboards for a total of 126 poles. (The three-pan­elboard configuration is not available on Top Exit units.) For additional poles, distribution side sections can be added. Each side section provides another 42-pole panelboard.
Optional Panelboard Types
Branch circuit panelboards that accept bolt-in circuit breakers are optional, as are panelboards for plug-in or bolt-in breakers manufactured by Square-D Com­pany.
Subfeed Output Circuit Breaker
A subfeed output circuit breaker, powered ahead of the output panelboards, is available on the Precision Power Center to feed a remote distribution unit, panelboards, or other loads. Multiple Subfeed Output Breakers are available upon request.
High-Voltage Junction Box With Flexible Input Cable
The high-voltage junction box can be installed under a raised floor system. The junction box contains ter­minals for connecting the incoming power line and ground conductors. A 10-foot (3 m) flexible cable is furnished for connec­tion between the junction box and the power conditioning system.
Low-Voltage Junction Box With Flexible Input Cable
The low-voltage junction box can be installed under a raised floor. It contains ter­minals for connection of all building interface alarms or controls, and all Remote Emergency Power Off switches. A 10-foot (3-meter) flexible control cable for the system is furnished for con­nection between the junc­tion box and the power conditioning system.
Secondary Class Surge Arrester
A secondary class surge arrester using high capac­ity utility-grade metal oxide resistors is wired to all three phases of the input power to shunt volt­age surges to building ground. The arrester is rated for a maximum FOW spark-over of 3200 volts with maximum dis­charge voltage of 2.2 kV at 1500 amperes, assuming a standard 8 x 20 microsecond waveform. The surge arrester provides protection against high voltage surges that can cause insulation or wiring failures.
Additional Features for All Systems
7
Spike Suppression Module
The spike suppression module consists of AC filter capacitors and dynamic peak limiting devices with a response time of less than 1 nanosecond. Normal mode high frequency noise is attenuated, while high-speed, high-energy transients are limited to a safe level.
Transformerless System (Not Available on Top Exit Units)
The Precision Power Center can be supplied without a transformer for use with separate power condition­ing systems. If step-down and isolation are not neces­sary, transformerless systems provide the packaged power system advantages of security, distribution, monitoring, and upgrade flexibility.
Remote Emergency Power Off (REPO) Switch
Pressing the REPO push but­ton activates the shunt trip mechanism of the main input circuit breaker, shutting down the system.
The illuminated and fully guarded REPO button is mounted in a wall box. The assembly includes 50 feet (15.2m) of 3-conductor cable for wiring to the unit. Additional lengths of cable are available.
Floor Pedestals
In rooms without a raised floor, the floor pedestals pro­vide space for the bottom entrance/exit of cables in Pre­cision Power Center. The height of the floor pedestals is customer-specified. Standard floor pedestal height range is adjustable from 8.6 to 13.25 in. (218 to 336 mm). Other available ranges: 6 to 8.5 in. (152 to 216 mm), and 13.5 to 18 in. (343 to 457 mm). Non-raised floor applications for the Precision Power Center are not CSA approved.
Transient Suppression Plate
The transient suppression plate is a one-square­meter plate mounted to (and bonded to) the high­voltage junction box. It reduces the effects of tran­sients on the ground system by providing a capaci­tive coupling to building steel.
Phase Rotation Meter
The phase rotation meter is a hand-held instrument with clip-on leads for connecting to the circuit under test. The meter shows the circuit phase rotation in “ABC” or “BAC” sequence.
The phase rotation meter can verify rotation sequence of any circuit up to 600 volts.

HARMONICS SOLUTIONS
Solutions to Harmonics Problems
Precision Power Centers are available with several harmonic solution options, along with the standard product features, to provide flexible power distribu­tion for today’s nonlinear loads.
The basic Precision Power Center is designed to accommodate moderate levels of harmonic currents. All Precision Power Center isolation transformers provide cancellation of the load triplen harmonic cur­rents and are designed to tolerate neutral currents up to 1.73 times full load. When severe levels of har­monic currents are anticipated, several additional power center features are available.
K-Factor Transformers
Shielded isolation transformers with a K-20 rating are specially designed to minimize the heating effects of the load’s harmonic currents and to tolerate full harmonic loading without overheating.
Multi-Winding Transformers
Shielded isolation transformers with multiple sec­ondary windings that are phase shifted provide can­cellation of the load’s non-triplen harmonic currents.
SYSTEM MONITORING
Monitoring systems for Liebert power conditioners range from temperature sensing to multiple-parameter monitoring with remote display and printout.
All units are equipped with a guarded and illuminated Local Emergency Power Off switch; provisions for con­necting Remote Emergency Power Off switch; selectable auto or manual restart feature, to allow an orderly system restart after a power failure; a summary alarm contact; and a building interface relay.
Power Monitor Panel
True RMS techniques are used to provide accurate measurements of Precision Power Center operation, while the high visibility Liquid Crystal Display pro­vides clear reporting. The microprocessor-based power monitoring system continuously monitors and sequentially displays the following parameters:
• Input voltages, line-to-line for each phase
• Output voltages, line-to-line and line-to-neutral for each phase
• Output currents for each phase, including neutral and ground currents
• Output voltage THD for each phase
• Output current THD, K-factor and crest factor for each phase
• Output power including kVA, KW, KW-hours, power factor, percent load and output frequency

The monitor panel also provides warning of out-of­spec conditions through audible alarm and displayed alarm messages. All alarmed conditions are retained in a non-volatile memory until reset. Alarm thresh­olds are adjustable, to meet individual site needs.
Alarmed conditions include:
• Output overvoltage
• Output undervoltage
• Output voltage THD
• Output overcurrent
• Neutral overcurrent
• Ground overcurrent
• Transformer overtemperature
• Frequency deviation
• Phase sequence error
• Phase loss
• Five customer-specified alarm conditions For additional application flexibility, the following
alarms can be configured to shut down the Precision Power Center-output over/under voltage; phase sequence error; phase loss; ground overcurrent.
Through a two-conductor communications cable, the system can communicate alarms and monitored condi­tions to a Liebert SiteScan central monitoring system. An isolated RS-232 ASCII communication port is pro­vided for communication to other monitoring systems.
Basic Temperature Monitoring Panel
The Transformer Overtemperature alarm indicator is a part of the 180°C transformer temperature sens­ing circuit. This configuration is optional on all units.
Remote Monitoring Systems
SiteScan
SiteScan is an on-line center for monitoring and con­trolling all support systems in a large data process­ing installation. SiteScan provides early warning alarms and total site management data. A software­based system using a microcomputer as the central processing center, SiteScan is programmable, menu­driven, and upgradeable.
Four primary site management programs are built into SiteScan:
Alarm functions provide instant warning of potential problems. A seven level selection of options for response to each alarm offers total flexi­bility in designing a custom-tailored alarm system.
Control functions allow critical setpoints and sensitivities to be adjusted by remote control for dynamic, single-point site management. Password access preserves site security.
Status functions provide complete information on all computer support systems, including real­time status of all monitored parameters and any alarm conditions.
History functions offer database management capabilities. These functions track, store and graphically display crucial data and trends for site management activities such as capacity analysis, growth predictions, and energy management.
SiteScan makes full use of all features of its com­puter-based central processor, including RS-232 communications and other output ports and unlimited expansion via multiplexers. For critical data processing facilities, the SiteScan system offers total site management capability in a virtu­ally obsolescence-proof configuration.

System Sizing
13
SYSTEM SIZING
Sizing a power center to meet present and future needs is a fundamental requirement.
Present Requirements
Estimating the present system size in kilovolt amperes (kVA) is done in a number of ways. Typical sources include computer site planning manuals, equipment nameplate data, and electrical service data. kVA requirements are estimated using any of the following formulas:
1. Power profile of equipment. (This is the most reliable base from which to estimate present kVA loading.)
For three-phase systems:
For single-phase equipment:
2. Kilowatts (kW) and Power Factor (pf).
(If pf is not given, assume 0.8.)
3. Ampere specifications for the electrical service feeding the site:
(for three-phase systems)
4. BTU/hr or Kcal/hr specifications:
(If pf is not known, assume 0.8.)
After the present kVA requirement has been deter­mined, the anticipated growth and the special char­acteristics of the load must be considered.
Growth Requirements
The power center should be sized to anticipate growth. Growth rates associated with data process­ing centers double power requirements in a short time. Therefore it is reasonable to size the system for twice the present kVA load. Even in a minimum growth environment, the power center should be sized for 125% of the estimated kVA load.
Special Load Characteristics
For special load characteristics, factory application engineers should be consulted for recommended sys­tem sizing.
System Grounding Considerations
The grounding of any power conditioning system is critical to its performance. The National Electrical Code provides for a safe electrical system. The ground path required by the NEC for safety should be enhanced or improved for system performance, never defeated or eliminated. For detailed system grounding considerations, refer to the Precision Power Center Installation Operation and Mainenance Manual.

Service Access and Clearance Requirements
14
SERVICE ACCESS AND CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS
Precision Power Centers are designed for easy servic­ing. Access areas and minimum clearances of each are described below.
Precision Power Center - 15-225 kVA sizes
Recommended minimum service clearances for Preci­sion Power Centers should be at the front and one other side, or rear. Service clearance extends 42 in. (1067 mm) from the unit in accordance with the National Electrical Code. If bottom cable exit is desired, there must be at least 6" (143 mm) clearance at the bottom of the unit.
(NOTE: If bottom cable exit or distribution cables are used, the unit must be installed on a raised floor or floor pedestals must be provided. Non-raised floor applications are not CSA approved.)
Units with a transformer require 18" (427 mm) above the unit for cooling airflow.
