Figure 3: Operating principle diagram

The UPS is composed of mains input, SPD and EMI/RFI lters, recti er/PFC, inverter, battery charger, dc-to-dc converter, battery, dynamic bypass, and UPS output.

1.4.1 Surge Protection Device (SPD) & EMI/RFI Filters

The S4K2U-5C has surge protection and lters that protect the connected load from power surges, electromagnetic interference (EMI), and radio frequency interference (RFI). These features can minimize any surges or interference present in the mains power. The lters also prevent surges or interference generated by the UPS from adversely a ecting devices connected on the same branch as the UPS.

1.4.2 Recti er/Power Factor Correction (PFC) Circuit

In normal operation, the S4K2U-5C’s recti er/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:

E cient power use by the UPS

Reduced re ected harmonics

This results in cleaner power being available to other devices in the building not protected by the S4K2U-5C.

1.4.3 Inverter

In normal operation, the S4K2U-5C’s inverter utilizes the dc output of the PFC recti er to produce precise, regulated sine wave ac power. When mains power fails, the inverter receives dc power from the dc-to-dc converter. In either operation mode, the UPS inverter is on-line, continuously generating clean, precise, regulated ac output power.

1.4.4 Battery Charger

The battery charger utilizes energy from the mains power and precisely regulates it to continuously oat charge the batteries. The batteries are being charged whenever the S4K2U-5C is plugged in, even when the UPS is not turned on.

1.4.5 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 e ciency and voltage, thus increasing reliability.

1.4.6 Battery

The S4K2U-5C uses valve-regulated, non-spillable, lead acid batteries. To maintain battery design life, operate the UPS in an ambient temperature of 0°C to 25°C (32°F to 77°F).

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

1.4.7 Dynamic Bypass

The S4K2U-5C provides an alternate path for mains power to the connected loads in the unlikely event of a UPS malfunction. Should the S4K2U-5C 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 Modes

The UPS operating modes include: Mains (V ac) Mode, Bypass Mode, Battery Mode, Battery Recharge Mode, and Frequency Converter Mode. For descriptions of indicators and control buttons, refer to “3.0 Controls & Indicators”.

1.5.1 Mains (V ac) Mode

During Mains (V ac) Mode, mains power provides energy to the S4K2U-5C. The lters, PFC recti er, and the inverter process this power to provide computer-grade power to connected loads. Meanwhile, the UPS maintains the batteries in a fully charged state.

1.5.2 Manual Bypass Mode

Manual Bypass Mode occurs when the Standby/Manual Bypass button is pressed and held for about 2 seconds while the S4K2U-5C is in Mains (V ac) Mode. Bypass operation is indicated by an audible alarm and illuminated amber bypass indicator. (If other indicators are illuminated, refer to “8.0 Troubleshooting”). During Manual Bypass Mode, mains power bypasses the inverter and provides energy to the connected load.

! CAUTION

Turning o the UPS in Manual Bypass Mode will result in loss of output power and dropped loads.

1.5.3 Battery Mode

The S4K2U-5C 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 S4K2U-5C 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-con gurable).

In Battery Mode, the Ac Input indicator goes o and the Battery Level indicators illuminate. Each Battery Level indicator represents a 20% capacity level. As capacity decreases, fewer indicators remain illuminated. Refer to “8.0 Troubleshooting”.

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

! CAUTION

Turning o the S4K2U-5C while in Battery Mode will result in loss of output power. If the UPS is turned o manually, it must be manually restarted after mains power returns. If the UPS is turned o by a communication signal or because the batteries are depleted, it will operate as selected in the con guration program for Auto-Restart (refer to “5.2.1 Con guration Program”).

1.5.4 Battery Recharge Mode

Once mains power is applied to the S4K2U-5C, the battery charger begins charging the batteries.

1.5.5 Frequency Converter Mode

All models of the S4K2U-5C are capable of frequency conversion. Frequency Conversion Mode can be selected using the con guration program. Allowable frequency operating modes include:

Auto Sensing — 50 Hz or 60 Hz — Bypass Enabled

Auto Sensing — 50 Hz or 60 Hz — Bypass Disabled

Frequency Converter — 50 Hz — Bypass Disabled

Frequency Converter — 60 Hz — Bypass Disabled

NOTE: The default for all models of the S4K2U-5C is “Auto Sensing — 50 Hz 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 o .
