1.1 Save these instructions

This manual contains important instructions for LanPro®-11U Series UPS, that should be followed during
installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.

Before attempting to install and start up the UPS, carefully read this manual. Keep this manual next
to the UPS for future references.All servicing must be done by qualified personnel. Do not attempt
to service the UPS unless you have had proper training.

CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

­inside. All maintenance and service work should be performed by qualified service personnel. The UPS
contains batteries. The appliance outlet may be electrically live, even when the UPS is disconnected from
the utility supply. Dangerous voltages may be present during battery operation. The batteries must be
disconnected during maintenance or service work.

- The UPS contains potentially hazardous voltages.

- Do not remove fuse F4A or F4B during operation. This can result in a flame arc.

Do not remove the cover, there are no user serviceable parts

1.3 Installation

- This UPS is intended to be used in a controlled environment indoors and free of conductive contaminants.

- The UPS should only be powered from a single phase, three wire AC source equipped with an earth
connection.

- In this manual "Earth" is represented with two different symbols:

= Field wiring equipment grounding terminal,

= Grounding terminals.

- Do not install the UPS in an excessively humid environment or near water.

- Avoid getting liquids or any foreign object into the UPS.

- The unit must be placed in a sufficiently ventilated area; the ambient temperature should not exceed 40°C
(104°F). Optimal battery lifetime is obtained if the ambient temperature does not exceed 30°C (86°F).

- It is important that the unit has adequate ventilation. Maintain air movement around and through the unit. Do
not block the air vents.

- Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near heat sources.

- Do not plug household appliances such as electric heaters, toasters or vacuum cleaners into the UPS.

- Use insulated copper input and output wiring, rated 90°C (194°F) wire size based on the ampacities given in
Tables 310-16 of the Nation Electrical code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1993. Specified in table 2 and table 3.

1.4 Storage

- Store the UPS with its batteries fully charged in a dry location, storage temperature must be within -20°C
and +45°C (-4°F and 113°F).
If the unit is stored for an extended period of time, the batteries must be recharged periodically, for 24 hours.
Connect the unit to the utility and switch it on:

- if the storage temperature is within -20 and +30°C (-4°F and 86°F), recharge the batteries every 6 months.

- if the storage temperature is within -20 and +45°C (-4°F and 113°F), recharge the batteries every 4 months.

1.5 Batteries

NOTE

-

- When replacing the batteries, use only the same number, type and size battery.

- Proper disposal or recycling of the batteries is required. Refer to your local codes for disposal requirements.

LX: OPM_LPA_11U_5K0_10K_1US_V021

: Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries

and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries.

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

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.’

Figure 4 . Bypass operation: Automatic bypass

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.

4.4.2 Available input voltages: hardware modifications

The following input voltages are possible: 208, 240 Vac (see 4.4.2.1) and 120 Vac (see 4.4.2.2)

4.4.2.1 Input voltage 208 or 240Vac.

1. Input voltage is 208 Vac. This is the factory setting. Proceed with step 3.

2. Input voltage is 240Vac. In this case the bypass tap on the output transformer must be changed. Please refer
to fig. 8 and 8a. Proceed as follows:

2.1 Remove the blue wire B from faston 74 (connect) and place this wire on faston 72 (park).

2.2 Remove the yellow wire A from faston 61 (park) and place this wire on faston 74 (connect).

Bypass tap factory setting: 208 Volt

3. Connect the utility supply wires to terminals 6 (L1), 7 (L2) and 8 (equipment grounding conductor). See
figure 9. Ground connection is essential!
If a neutral wire is part of the site wiring provided, we suggest to isolate this wire for future use or other
applications.

2. For the output voltage proceed with 4.4.3.

4.4.3 Available output voltages: hardware modifications

The off-factory setting is 208 Vac: a link is placed between terminals 2 and 3. An extra link was delivered with the
unit (in a plastic bag) to enable other output voltages (5/6kVA models only).
The following voltages are available: 120, 208, 220, 230, 240 Vac.

4.4.3.1 Output voltage 208Vac

This is the off-factory setting. There is a link between terminal 2 and 3.

1. Connect the output wires to the terminals 1 (L1) and 4 (L2).

2. Connect the ground wire to terminal 5. Ground connection is essential! See figure 11.
