3 DESCRIPTION

3.1 BLOCK DIAGRAM AND MAIN ELEMENTS DESCRIPTION

Fig. 3.1-1 UPS block diagram

The Uninterruptible Power Supply System LP 33 Series / 50 & 60 kVA can be divided into the following main elements:

Electronics

The UPS is designed with a microprocessor–controlled supervision and diagnostic system. Communication between user and UPS is achieved by the front panel consisting of an LCD screen, displaying the operation modes, the measurements and the events / alarms.

Rectifier

The rectifier converts the 3-phase mains voltage into a controlled and regulated DC-voltage, in order to supply power to the booster, and to charge the battery through the battery-charger.

Inverter

The inverter converts the DC voltage into a three-phase AC-voltage with constant amplitude and frequency, which is completely independent from the AC-input voltage.

Automatic Bypass

The automatic bypass consists of a static semiconductor-switch (SSR: Static Switch Relay), used to provide an uninterrupted transfer of the load from inverter to mains when operating in VFI Mode. If chosen the ECO Mode, the SSM transfer the load from mains to inverter in case the utility fails.

Back-Feed Protection

All LP 33 Series UPS’s are equipped with an automatic system for the protection against voltage back feeding towards Utility, through the Bypass (Applied Standard IEC 62040-1). This protection works automatically by opening contactor K6 (in series with the thyristors of the static switch) and eventually K7, and acts in case of internal defects of the system, or due to wrong manipulations on the maintenance bypass Q2.

Manual Bypass

The manual bypass consists of a pair of manual switches Q1 and Q2, which allow the isolation of the UPS from the load, while still supplying the load with power directly from the mains.

Battery The battery, normally stored by the battery-charger, supplies the DC energy to inverter in the event of mains failure.

3.2 OPERATION MODES

This section describes the different possible operation modes of the UPS explaining the function of the main modules of the UPS.

VFI (Voltage Frequency Independent) Mode operation

Under normal conditions the load is permanently powered by the inverter with constant amplitude and frequency.

The rectifier, powered by the mains, supplies the

inverter and the battery-charger keeps the battery fully charged.

Fig. 3.2-1 Energy flow in VFI Mode operation

The inverter converts the DC voltage in a new AC sine wave voltage with constant amplitude and frequency independently from the input mains power.

ECO Mode operation (Intelligent Energy Management)

When the ECO Mode is selected, and the mains power is available, the load is normally powered through the automatic bypass.

When the mains voltage is detected out of the prescribed tolerances, the load is automatically transferred to the inverter.

When the mains recovers, the load returns to the automatic bypass after a variable time defined by the control unit.

Fig. 3.2-2 Energy flow in ECO Mode operation

The ECO Mode can be configured directly by the user for higher efficiency, considering the mains reliability and criticality of the load.

The selection between the two operation modes “VFI Mode and ECO Mode”, or switching between operation modes at required time, can be done through the UPS control panel (see Section 6.3.1-5).

In case of parallel system

ECO Mode cannot be enabled for RPA Parallel System.

Attention: A single unit equipped with a RPA - Parallel board, must be considered as parallel, thus

disabling ECO Mode.

OPM_LPS_3UO_50K_60K_0US_V010.doc Operating Manual LP 33 Series 50 & 60 kVA

Automatic bypass operation

In VFI (Voltage Frequency Independent) operation mode, the load is permanently supplied by the inverter but, in case of trouble on the inverter, or when overload or short-circuit on the output occur, if the mains voltage do not exceed the admitted tolerances, the load is instantly transferred to the mains through the automatic bypass, taking advantage of the higher short circuit power.

Fig. 3.2-3 Energy flow in automatic bypass operation

When the inverter recovers, the load will be re-transferred automatically to the inverter.

In case of parallel system

Each unit has its own bypass.

All the bypasses in the system work together, their control being managed in the same manner by all units.

The units are continuously exchanging information before taking such decision. In case the inverter of one unit fails, its bypass remains operating. It is excluded only if the unit is separated from the common bus by opening its output switch Q1.

Mains recovery operation

As soon as the mains recovers, the rectifier starts up automatically supplying the inverter and the battery-charger recharges the battery.

In case the inverter has been shut down following a complete discharge of the battery, when the mains recovers the system start up automatically.

Fig. 3.2-4 Energy flow at mains recovery operation

When the energy stored in the battery is sufficient to ensure a minimum time of operation with the actual load, in case of a future mains failure, the load will be retransferred to inverter (if selected VFI Mode).

In case of parallel system

When the AC input power recovers, the rectifiers will start up sequentially according to their number in the parallel system in order to avoid an initial inrush current.

The inverters will start up automatically, but only when the battery has recharged enough for a

minimum runtime with the present load. When enough inverters to supply the load have been restarted, the load will be transferred from the

automatic bypass back to the inverter bus-bars.

OPM_LPS_3UO_50K_60K_0US_V010.doc Operating Manual LP 33 Series 50 & 60 kVA

Manual bypass operation

The manual bypass circuit consisting of Q1 and Q2 manual switches, permits the transfer of the load directly to the mains without interruption,

leaving the UPS galvanically separated from the output load.

This type of operation is normally used when the UPS system must be completely turned off for maintenance or reparation.

Fig. 3.2-5 Energy flow in manual bypass operation

Mains failure operation

In the event of a mains power failure, the rectifier and the battery-charger turn OFF,

while the inverter continues to supply the load without interruption using the energy stored in the battery.

During the battery discharge, the LCD screen displays the remaining autonomy, based on the battery capacity and the applied load.

Fig. 3.2-6 Energy flow during mains failure operation

In the event of an extended mains failure, before the battery is fully discharged, the alarm “stop operation” warns the user that the UPS will start the shutdown procedures when the indicated time

expired (normally 3 minutes).

In case of parallel system

With parallel system for power capacity:

• With the bypass mains power available as the warning “battery low” occurs on one unit, after

timeout (selectable) the load is transferred to mains.

• With missing bypass mains power as the warning occurs on one unit, the system starts the

timeout (selectable) of “Stop operation” and then the output load shuts down.

With redundant parallel system:

• As the warning battery low occurs on one unit unnecessary to support the present load, after timeout (selectable) this unit shuts down and the load is shared between the other units. As the warning occurs on one unit necessary to support the present load, the system starts the timeout (selectable) of “stop operation” and then the output load shuts down.

OPM_LPS_3UO_50K_60K_0US_V010.doc Operating Manual LP 33 Series 50 & 60 kVA

3.3 RPA PARALLEL SYSTEM

The RPA (Redundant Parallel Architecture) allows to extend the unit to a parallel system with 2, 3, or 4 units LP 33 Series connected on the same bus, which ensure the highest reliability rate and increase the power availability.

Parallel system for power capacity

Two or more units can be paralleled in order to achieve output power superior to the maximum power delivered by a single UPS unit. The maximum total load shared between the n parallel units can achieve the 100% of the installed nominal power system. In the event of one unit fails, the load will be suddenly transferred to the mains by the bypass.

Parallel system for redundancy

The parallel system can be defined redundant only in case the nominal power rating of n-1 units of n parallel units is sufficient to supply the required load power.

Fig. 3.3-1 RPA system diagram

The load in a parallel redundant system, is equally shared by n units connected on the output bars. Should one of the parallel units trip off-line, the remaining (n-1) units will share the load maintaining the applications protected by inverter until the normal situation restores.

Load sharing between parallel units The control bus exchanging the data between the microprocessors of the paralleled units provide for a

constant proportional load sharing in every load condition.

Management and synchronization of the parallel system All the units are identical without master and slaves.

One unit is arbitrarily selected as the reference (the first unit connected on power bus) being this unit the first synchronized with the mains voltage, and all the other units synchronize with the first one. In case the reference unit fails or it is excluded from the parallel power bus any other unit will take over the reference role. The AC input power source of all the bypasses must be the same for all the units of the parallel system excluding any phase shift between them.

Control bus of the parallel system A high-speed serial bus, guarantees communication, synchronization and load sharing between the

UPS modules. Each module controls it’s own function, while the Master (each unit can be Master) controls and commands the status of the system.

NOTE !

The parallel system exclude more rectifiers connected on common battery. No transformers, fuses or automatic circuit breakers should be inserted between the unit’s output and the load common bus bars.

3.4 UPS PARALLELED ON THE SAME BATTERY

NOTE !

A parallel system with a Common Battery for two or more UPS, requires a particular installation and adequate setting of some parameters, (accessible only through password), and can therefore only be done by a qualified GE engineer.

Usually each UPS Unit runs with its own Battery. In case of parallel units running with a Common Battery (max. 4 UPS - see Fig. 3.4-1), the sharing circuit between the individual UPS is integrated in the communication bus of the system in order to assure an equal sharing of the Rectifiers output currents.

Battery

Pay attention to the following recommendations:

• The units delivered for this functioning mode needs a special parameters setting, so they must be prepared in advance before the installation.

• The installation must be performed only with the UPS system completely shut down.

• The AC Rectifiers input power (5) must be the same, with clockwise phase rotation for each unit.

• Each Rectifier must be set for the same floating DC voltage and the same Battery current limitation.

• It is mandatory to install the fuses / MCCB (7) on each line connecting the Rectifiers to the common

Battery for maintenance / safety reasons (see Section 4.7.2).

• In case a unit must be powered down for maintenance, switch-OFF the concerned unit before open the DC fuses / MCCB on the Battery line (7).

• If an emergency generator set supplies the UPS, and the free contact “Generator ON” is connected to the Customer Interface, connect a separate NO free contact on each parallel unit.

• Do not connect the temperature sensor for automatic battery floating voltage compensation.

• Do not enable the function Boost charge.

2. d1 ÷ d7: Enabling time in function of weekdays.

For the weekdays from d1 to d7 (Saturday to Friday) the edit mode (edit day) allows to define time intervals when the UPS is operating in ECO Mode. The hour is given in 24-hour format. These intervals are defined by:

ECO Mode START: the hour of the day after which the ECO Mode is enabled. The ECO Mode is enabled until the following ECO STOP time is reached (the

ECO STOP time of the same day if this is later than the ECO START time, the ECO STOP time of the following day otherwise).

ECO Mode STOP: the hour of the day before which the ECO Mode is enabled.

The ECO Mode is enabled starting from the preceding ECO START time (the ECO START time of the same day if this is earlier than the ECO STOP time, the ECO START time of the previous day otherwise).

Identical times for ECO START and ECO STOP maintain the existing mode only in case the previous command was ECO START and the following command will be ECO STOP.

3. HOURS SELECTED: The number of ECO Mode hours per weekday (from d1 - Saturday to d7 -

Friday) is displayed in the operation mode parameter window (ceiling value).

To better understand the ECO Mode programming, some typical examples are shown:

Example 1

: For continuous ECO Mode set the ECO START times to 00:00 and the ECO STOP times to

23:59 for all weekdays, but every day must have 1 minute of VFI mode operation: i.e d2

- Sunday 00:00 to 23:58).

Weekday d1 - Saturday d2 - Sunday d3 - Monday d4 - Tuesday d5 - Wednesday d6 - Thursday d7 - Friday

ECO START 00:00 00:00 00:00 00:00 00:00 00:00 00:00

ECO STOP 23:59 23:58 23:59 23:59 23:59 23:59 23:59

Customer Interface

The Customer Interface allows the client the exchange of information (monitoring and control) with the following interfaces:

• Serial port RS232.

• 6 programmable output channels.

• 2 programmable input channels, of witch one for GEN-ON.

• EPO (Emergency Power Off).

Advanced SNMP Card

Simple Network Management Protocol

The Advanced SNMP Card is an interface to the Ethernet

Network, and provides UPS information via the standard SNMP Protocol (UPS-MIB (RFC-1628); GE Single MIB; GE Parallel MIB).

The UPS can therefore be managed by a Network Management System (NMS) or by our applications (for instance JUMP), which

uses this information to determine the state of the UPS in order to guarantee safe and orderly shutdown of the server, when needed.

Connectivity Software

JUMP Software Suite / IRIS Service, etc.

Software application for the control and monitoring of the UPS.

9 MAINTENANCE

WARNING !

All maintenance and service works must be performed by QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON.

9.1 GENERAL MAINTENANCE

When used properly, the LP 33 Series UPS is virtually maintenance free. Take care of proper environmental conditions (see Installation Guide - Section 3.5 – Ventilation & Cooling) and keep air inlets/outlets free from dust and any other obstacle.

9.2 COOLING FAN MAINTENANCE

The expected operational life of the cooling fans is approximately 40.000 hours of continuous operation. A high ambient temperature will shorten this operational life.

9.3 BATTERY MAINTENANCE

The service life of the battery is from 3 to 6 years, depending on the operating temperature and on the number of discharge cycles.

The UPS LP 33 Series offers the possibility of SBM (Superior Battery Management). The function SBM can be activated through a service Parameter. The functionality of SBM reduces the Battery recharging time together with improved lifetime of the Battery.

As a healthy battery is essential to the performance of the UPS, an automatic or manual battery test can be performed regularly to ensure failsafe operation, in order to check if the battery can provide the expected backup time in case of mains failure. We recommend the battery test be performed at least every 1 month, especially if the battery is not sufficiently discharged during normal operation.

Since the parameter enabling the battery test protected by user password, please contact your Service Center for more information.

Please consider that, if you did a full battery test to verify the full runtime of the battery, the charger needs at least 8 hours to recharge the battery up to 90% of its capacity.

To guarantee that the battery is fully charged, the UPS system should be in operation for at least 12 hours every 3 months.

When the condition of the battery is critical, the warning signal will be activated (general alarm, buzzer and alarm message “4118 - Battery fault”). In this case the battery must be replaced as soon as possible. Please contact your Service Center.

SERVICE REQUIRED

If this lamp lights up during the normal operation (service parameter with password), the performances of the UPS remain the same, but that means the unit has not been serviced for the last

20.000 hours by a qualified GE Service Engineer.

Some components of the UPS which need periodic maintenance, if not replaced, could cause a reliability reduction of the supply system.

We highly recommend that you contact your Service Center for preventive maintenance work.

NOTE !

Ask to your local Service Center to submit the form of Preventive Maintenance Contract suitable for your specific needs.
