2 - Introduction

More than ever before, today's advanced electronic equipment, with complex integrated circuits and other sensitive electronics, needs a stable and continuous AC power supply to operate correctly. While the power coming from the wall outlet is often unreliable, a GE Digital Energy LanPro uninterrupted power.

A compact, truly on-line system, the GE Digital Energy LanPro power interference, including complete power failure. A simple and elegant circuit design, together with extensive protection against abnormal operating conditions (e.g. overload, short circuit, overheating), makes the LanPro exceptionally reliable.

The LanPro a result, input and output voltages do not necessarily have to be equal, making the UPS suitable for almost every situation.

3 - Functional Explanation

3.1 The Principles of Operation

The LanPro incoming utility power is cut off completely. Energy is stored as Direct Current (DC), while input and output energy must be Alternating Current (AC). Therefore the UPS contains an input converter (AC to DC) and an output converter (DC to AC). (fig.2)

3.2 Normal Conditions

Under normal conditions, energy from the utility is channelled through the input converter, which supplies the output converter and the battery charger. The batteries are kept in a fully charged state, and the output converter synthesizes a completely new AC output sine wave to supply the load (electrical equipment).

-U UPS stores electric energy in batteries. This allows the UPS to supply output power even when the

3.3 Utility Failure

In the event of a utility power failure (i.e. absent or outside tolerance) the system uses the energy reserve stored in the battery to continue to produce AC power, ensuring unbroken output (fig. 3). No interruption or alteration will ever be noticed in the output power. In the event of an extended utility failure, the output converter will stop when the battery has been discharged. At this point, the UPS is no longer able to power the connected equipment. When the utility is re-established within tolerance, the output converter will be supplied again by the input converter and the batteries will be recharged, making them ready to support future power failures.

3.4 Automatic Bypass Switch

If the output converter is unable to deliver the demanded output power because of overload or overtemperature, the automatic bypass switch will automatically transfer the load to the utility. When the situation is corrected the UPS will switch back to normal operation, i.e. the load is tranferred back to the output converter. Though the automatic bypass switch is shown as a simple mechanical switch in figures 2-5, the transfers are done by means of thyristors, i.e. electronically, without any interruption of the power supplied to the load. In case of a severe overload or short-circuit the magnetic bypass circuit breaker (rear panel) may trip in order to protect the UPS. If the current is insufficiently high to trip the breaker, the UPS will be switched off by the software in order to protect the UPS and connected equipment.’

If a power failure occurs during bypass operation, load power may be lost. If the UPS functions under overload conditions it may not be able to protect the load.

3.5 Manual Bypass Switch (Service switch)

The system can be bypassed manually using the manual bypass switch located at the rear panel. It is a two-position switch: the normal position is '1': as in figures 2-4. Position '2' is the service position: the load is directly connected to the utility input. This way maintenance of the UPS (e.g. battery replacement, as in fig. 5) is possible without interruption of the power supplied to the load.

The RPA option (Redundant Parallel Architecture) allows you to create a redundant UPS system in which 2, 3 or 4

LanPro

11U series: 2 / 3 / 4 parallel operating units – additional info

-U units operate in parallel. The following should be considered when installing units in parallel.

This section gives aditional information on:

- installation (4.4.6.1)

- start-up (4.4.6.2)

- use / maintenance (4.4.6.3)

4.4.6.1 Notes concerning installation of a parallel system

1. All inputs of the UPSs must be supplied from the same phase. This is to enable bypass operation of the parallel system. All inputs must be individually protected by fuses in the installation. The values of these fuses should correspond to the values mentioned in section 4.4 table 1.

2. All outputs must be connected together, supplying the load. It is advised to install switches (S 1-4, fig. 17) in the output wiring, in order to be able to isolate a unit from the remaining system for service and maintenance purposes. It is advised to make a Neutral-to-Ground bounding in the output junction.

3. The diameter of input and output cables must be according to the table in the installation drawings (see appendix). Cables with different diameters can cause tripping fuses in the UPS and/or the installation.

4. The length of all input cables from the input junction (Li, fig. 17) to the UPS inputs should be equal. The same applies to the cables from the outputs to the output junction (Lo, fig. 17). The minimum length of the input as well as the output cables is 3 meters / 10 feet.

5. The right option slot (14) at the rear of the unit contains the the RPA-card. Before the parallel system can be put into operation a unique number has to be appointed to each UPS in the system. This can be 0, 1, 2 or 3. Start with 0 for the first unit, 1 for the second, 2 for the third and 3 for the last unit:

- loosen the screws, remove the RPA-card

- set the dipswitch to the appointed number (fig. 18)

- re-install the RPA-card, fasten the screws.

Do NOT install the network cables between the RPA-cards of the units yet!

6. In the UPS many parameters can be set. It is advised to keep the same setting for each parameter in each UPS in the parallel system. In any case the following parameters are critical and should have equal settings:

- autorestart (on/off, see 5.3.3)

- output voltage (120/208/220/230/240 Vac, see 5.3.4)

- output frequency (50/60 Hz, see 5.3.4)

number to each UPS in the system

GE Digital Energy

It is absolutely required that these parameters are set to the same value. Off factory this is the case. If you’re not sure that the units have equal settings:

- be sure that the RPA-cards of the units have not been interconnected yet

- be sure that utility power is connected to the UPS

- start each unit individually (see 5.2), check / change the parameters, and switch the unit off again.

7. Interconnect the RPA-cards of the units, using the network cable that came with the UPS. See figure 17 (dotted line). Only install the cables that were delivered with the UPSs! Of the first and the last UPS in the system only one RPA-socket is used to interconnect the UPSs. A bus terminator must be placed in the other (free) RPA-socket. The required bus terminators have been delivered with the unit.

4.4.6.2 Notes concerning starting up the parallel system

/$13528 /2$'

In case of a system failure the self-test results in a failure message; this message is displayed for 30 seconds before the self-test is repeated automatically. If the faulty situation persists, switch off the UPS and contact your dealer. See chapter 9 for more information.

4. Though the batteries (the internal energy reserve) were fully charged when the UPS left the factory, they might have lost some energy during transport and/or storage. It is recommended to allow the UPS to recharge the batteries for a few hours. This way you ensure that the UPS can provide sufficient runtime in case of a utility power failure.

5.3 Use

Once the unit is in operation, there is no need to switch the unit on/off during use.

If the manual bypass switch (rear panel, 10) is in position '1', switching off by the on/off switch (rear panel, 7) results in a total absence of the output voltage (also the bypass voltage) of at least 5 secs.

If an emergency shutdown switch has been installed (see 4.4.1.1-2, step 6) the UPS will stop immediately when the switch is opened. Restart is only possible after closing the switch and turning the UPS UPS on/off switch (rear panel, 7).

The UPS is operated via the push-buttons (front panel, 2-3-4) and the LCD display (front panel, 1). Furthermore the UPS can be controlled via the RS232/contact interface port (rear panel, 12a). For more information see 6.1.

The menus on the display can be divided into 5 groups:

The load exceeds the rated output power of the UPS, and the output voltage can no longer be guaranteed. This text alternates with the following screen:

showing the actual load as % of the nominal UPS rating. These messages are displayed if the load is > 100%. If the load exceeds 150% the UPS will immediately switch to bypass, assuming that the conditions for a transfer to bypass are fulfilled. If an overload condition between 100-150% persists, the UPS can eventually also switch to bypass operation due to temperature protection. If a transfer to bypass is inhibited (due to voltage or frequency errors of the utility supply) the UPS may automatically switch off within a few seconds (load dependent). avoid these problems, be absolutely certain that the power demands of the protected equipment are within the limits of the UPS.

Output power is lost at that moment.

The temperature of the heatsinks or output transformer is too high. As a result the output voltage may be transferred to bypass.

The operating temperature can rise to intolerable levels as a result of:

• extreme environmental temperature

• lack of proper ventilation

• an overload situation

• fan failure

If the UPS operates in 'on line' mode, it will switch to bypass until the temperature is normal again. If however the UPS operates 'on battery', a shutdown will occur and output power is lost.

Due to a failure the output converter's output is not available. As a result the load may have been transferred to bypass.

The remaining runtime is zero. As a result the load may have been transferred to bypass.

The remaining run time is less than the set time (standard 2 minutes). This text alternates with the following screen:

The output voltage can be lost after the indicated time due to discharged battery. Controlled shutdown of any computer equipment is absolutely necessary at this point. (Using the RS232 or SNMP communications interface, this procedure can be initiated automatically on unattended systems).

The internal battery fuse is defective; this may have been caused by an internal system failure. This alarm also appears if no batteries are installed.

The (custom-built) battery extension set has been disconnected from the system: its energy reserve is not available. See 4.4.2 step 12 for details.

5.4.3 Deep Battery Test

The runtime as shown on the LCD screen is calculated, and the value is initially based on the capacity of new batteries. As batteries age, their capacity deteriorates, and as a result the initial battery capacity may be too unreliable for a proper runtime prediction. The UPS is able to keep track of the aging process, if a 'deep battery test' (battery calibration test) is executed regularly. During such a test the condition of the batteries is tested, and the result of the test is stored, and used by the UPS system for future runtime calculations.

We advise performing a deep battery test on a regular basis. For accuracy reasons the interval should depend on the number of discharges . With one discharge per month a 6 month interval is sufficient. If the discharge interval is shorter than once a week a monthly deep battery test is advised.

A deep battery test can be started only if the following conditions are met:

- The load should be more than 30% of nominal load

- The batteries should be fully charged (100% on screen)

- There are no alarms at the time the test is started.

The sleep period can be cancelled by either turning the UPS ON/OFF switch (6) off for a few seconds or by sending the appropriate command via the RS232/SNMP port.

5.5.4 Overload protection in bypass mode

The LanPro the UPS will switch to bypass operation, and subsequently the bypass input fuse on the front panel will trip. The capacity of the bypass fuse allows it to handle the inrush currents of the equipment connected to the UPS. The fuse will only trip after more than an hour at an input current of 40Amp (L5/6-11U) or 50Amp(L8-11U) or 63Amp (L1011U).

In order to protect the UPS system the software will cut off the abnormal current:

L5/6-11U: 36Amp 49Amp L8-11U: 55Amp 65Amp L10-11U 70Amp 81Amp

Between 36-49Amp(L5/6-11U), 55-65Amp (L8-11U), 70-81Amp(L10-11U) the time is inversely proportional to the input current. We advise to place a distribution fuse slow blow type between UPS input and the utility supply. Please refer to the installation drawing.

-U will protect itself in case of overload. Upon an overload which is caused by abnormal circumstances

in 10 minutes: in 1 minute:

If a utility failure occurs during the sleep period and the battery voltage eventually drops below 200Vdc, the UPS will automatically switch off in order to save battery power. When the main returns the UPS will start up automatically. The programmed sleep time however is lost.

5.5.7 Superior Battery Management

Load dependent battery-end voltage:

the higher the current, the lower the 'end-of-discharge' battery voltage. This gives maximum capacity without over discharging. Over discharging results in failure to recover normal capacity and in shortened battery life.

Equalize mode:

hours in order to equalize all battery voltages.

Boost mode:

with a boost charge voltage of 285Vdc. This enables fast recharging of the batteries. The programmed battery charging mode will change from boost charge into float charge after boost charging twice.

Temperature compensated battery charging:

increasing temperature (-18mV/°C or -32.4mV/°F per 12V battery). As a result poor charging of the batteries under low temperature conditions and overcharging of the batteries under high temperature conditions are prevented.

When switched on for the first time the UPS will start boost-charging the batteries for 15

If after a discharge the battery voltage is lower than 240Vdc, the UPS will charge the batteries

The allowable final battery voltage depends on the discharge current:

This feature reduces the battery charge voltage with

The UPS is equipped with 3 ‘option slots’ (rear panel, 12-14). In the most left slot (12) an RS232/contact interface card is factory installed. See 5.1. In the middle slot (13) additional Relay or SNMP plug-in Cards can be installed. The most right slot (14) allows easy installation of an RPA plug–in Card (Redundant Parallel Operation).

6.1 RS232 / contact interface

The RS232/Contact interface (9-pole, sub D, rear panel, 12a) enables advanced communication between the UPS and e.g. a personal computer. An interface kit (cable and software) is delivered with the UPS. The software supports most common operating systems incl. Novell, UNIX, VMS, Windows 3 - 95/98/2000 - NT, IBM OS/2, LINUX, has a modular and layered architecture and works for all degrees of network complexity: stand-alone, multi-vendor networks and large managed networks. During a power failure the UPS software takes a number of actions: processes are stopped, open files are closed and unattended systems will be shut down in a controlled way. When the utility power returns, the systems will automatically start up and will be up and running as soon as possible.

6.2 Emergency shutdown

The emergency shutdown connector is located on the RS232/contact interface card (12). Be sure that the UPS is switched off, and remove the card from the unit*. Remove the wire from connector J3 (pin 3 and 4). Install the wiring of a normally closed contact to connector J3 (pin 3 and 4). Re-install the RS232 interface card. If during normal operation of the UPS the contact is opened, the UPS will shut down. To restart the unit, restore the connection and turn the UPS off and on again.

* If the card is removed during normal operation the UPS will shut down.

6.3 Relay Card (optional)

The relay plug-in card can be installed in the middle option slot (rear panel, 13). The card is provided with four potential free contacts representing: battery low, bypass active, utility failure and general alarm. For more information please refer to the user manual that comes with the interface card.

6.4 SNMP Interface (optional)

This SNMP plug-in card can be installed in the middle option slot (rear panel, 13). The card makes the UPS ‘SNMP manageable’: it allows the data interface to be connected directly to an Ethernet network (thin coax, twisted pair, AUI). For more information please refer to the user manual that comes with the interface card. When this option is installed the RS232 communication link is no longer available.

7 - Optional Features

7.1 Extended Runtime

Extended runtime versions are equipped with additional separate battery packs to increase the runtime of the unit. Additional batteries will increase the recharging time for the unit. All other operational information is the same. If a battery pack is connected, the UPS must be informed about the new total battery capacity to allow a reliable recalculation of the available run time. Please refer to section 5.3.4 ‘Setup Menu’. Dependent of the charge condition of the new batteries the new run time calculations may temporarily be unreliable. Connecting an external charger may cause damage to the UPS. As the batteries are not galvanically separated from the utility input, the external charger must be galvanically separated from the utility. Using an external charger will cause a false run time prediction during charging time, the correct run time will be shown 10 hours after reaching battery float charge. If you are in doubt, contact your dealer.

7.2 Plug-in Cards

An option slot (rear panel, 13) allows easy installation of a relay or SNMP plug-in card. See sections 6.3 and 6.4 for more information.

7.3 RPA-Facility (Redundant Parallel Architecture)

Nowadays there are many mission-critical applications that need a fault tolerant, 100 % reliable availability of utility power. By adding the RPA-facility to the LanPro RPA-facility allows to connect 2, 3 or 4 units in parallel.

Connecting GE Digital Energy LanPro

Redundancy

By connecting units in parallel, using the N+x system, a redundant system can be created. In this case all the UPSs equally share the load in the system during normal operation. In this way every possible single point of failure will be eliminated. This means that if one of the UPSs in the parallel system fails, the other(s) can still supply the load guaranteeing full protection without any interruption.

Scalability:

Another reason for paralleling units is upgrading the power rating of the system. If e.g. a 5kVA LanPro installed, the power rating can be upgraded to 10kVA by adding another 5kVA LanPro investment makes sure that you don’t have to invest in advance, but only when you need to.

GE Digital Energy’s unique RPA system has the following major advantages:

• GE Digital Energy’s RPA offers true redundancy because not only the power electronics are redundant, but

also the batteries, the bypass circuit and the control logic,

• The RPA system is an option: you don’t have to buy it if you don’t need it.

: To achieve the highest possible level of power protection in a fault-tolerant network.

To add power if needed without investments beforehand.

8 - Maintenance

8.1 General

When used properly, the UPS is virtually maintenance free other than keeping the air inlets/outlets free from dust.

8.2 Cooling fan

The expected operational life of the cooling fans is approximately 20,000 to 40,000 hours of continuous operation. A high ambient temperature will shorten this operational life.

8.3 Batteries

The service life of the battery is from 3 to 6 years, depending on the operating temperature and on the number of discharge cycles. As a healthy battery is essential to the performance of the UPS, an automatic battery test is performed regularly to ensure failsafe operation (see section 5.4.1). When the condition of the battery is critical, the warning signal will be activated (buzzer 1x per 8 secs, and alarm message 'Replace battery', see 5.3.2). The batteries must be replaced as soon as possible. Please contact your dealer. Use only UL recognised batteries (BAZR2), valve regulated

types.

NOTE: under certain circumstances a 'QUICK BATTERY TEST'.

Regular deep battery tests are advised in order to re-calibrate the capacity of aging batteries. See section 5.4.3 for more information.

NOTE: All maintenance and service work, including battery replacement, should be performed by qualified service personnel.

For authorized service personnel only: Never short the battery terminals. Shorting may cause the battery to burn. Avoid charging in a sealed container. Proper disposal of batteries is required: refer to your local codes for disposal requirements. Never dispose of batteries in a fire: they may explode. Never disassemble or reassemble batteries; their contents (electrolyte) may be extremely toxic. If exposed to electrolyte, wash immeditately with plenty of water, if eye contact occurs flush with water and contact a physician.

8.5 Storage

Always store the UPS in a dry location with the batteries in a fully charged state, storage temperature must be within

-20 and +45°C. Storing the unit for a period exceeding 3 months can reduce the life of the batteries. To maintain their normal life expectancy, the batteries must be recharged periodically:

- if the storage temperature is within -20 and +30°C (-4°F and 86°F): every 6 months, for 24 hours,

- if the storage temperature is within -20 and +45°C (-4°F and 113°F): every 4 months, for 24 hours.

9 - Troubleshooting

Whenever a malfunction occurs, first check external factors (e.g connections, temperature, humidity or load) to determine whether the problem is caused by the unit itself or by its environment. Subsequently check whether the breakers/switches on the rear panel (fig. 19, 7-8-9) are in ‘on’ position. Always check these external factors before concluding that your LanPro The front screen will indicate the problem and solution (if the problem is due to environmental circumstances). If the solution is not shown on the screen, please contact your dealer.

During the self-test, performed immediately after start-up, the UPS may detect a system failure. In this case a message is displayed for 30 seconds before the self-test is repeated. If the faulty situation persists, please contact your dealer.
