2. Operation

Block diagram

2.1 Operating principle

When the mains supply is present, the input voltage is filtered and rectified by a special input stage (power factor corrector) which is able to optimise the absorption of current from the mains, so that the power factor becomes practically unitary, and to compensate for any shifts in voltage. This stage is able to supply the output inverter even in conditions of very low mains voltage. This feature becomes very striking with very low loads: with a load of around 50% nominal load, mains operation is possible as low as about 100 V without any exploitation of battery power. This enables more “intelligent” management of the switchover to battery power, minimising use of the batteries. The voltage is rectified at the first stage and then taken up by a high frequency inverter to produce the ‘clean’ sinusoidal output voltage, offering very low distortion rates. A rapid, synchronised by-pass circuit intervenes during peaks of absorption above the inverter’s capacity, for example when certain peripherals are switched on, demagnetisation of large colour monitors, etc. Should the mains voltage fail or be subject to excessive sag, a booster stage is automatically activated. This employs the batteries and safeguards the supply of power to the output inverter, and thus to the load, without any break. The circuitry is a passing neutral type, i.e. with no alteration of the neutral system of the appliances connected to it. During normal operation, a sensor verifies the difference in potential between the neutral wire and the earth wire: should this be excessive, it will activate the input protection and switch the UPS over to battery mode, signalling the anomaly. It is, however, possible to modify the parameters of the software so that only signalling is provided, if preferred. All the UPS functions are supervised by a microprocessor that is also able to control and memorise certain operating conditions, in addition to managing the UPS interface with a computer by means of a RS 232 serial line.

This makes it possible to control the operating functions and any anomalies in real time.

The UPS keeps the operator informed regarding its operating status using visual and acoustic signals:

2. Operation

The combination of these signals enables rapid and intuitive understanding of its operating status and recognition of any problems in the power supply. There are three main operating modes

- Mains operation

- Battery operation

- By-pass operation

2.2 Mains operation

This is considered the normal operating condition:

- mains voltage is converted by the power factor corrector (PFC) into continuous current

- the inverter reconstructs the sinusoidal voltage from the continuous current

- the output filter provides extra “cleaning” of the output voltage

- the batteries are recharged

2.3 Battery operation

When there is a mains power failure, the UPS automatically switches over to battery mode.

- the voltage of the batteries is increased by the “booster” circuit

- the inverter reconstructs the sinusoidal voltage from the continuous current

- the output filter ensures the voltage supplied to the load is clean

2.4 By-pass operation

The by-pass circuit excludes the UPS and connects the output directly to the input. The switchover takes place in a synchronised manner in order to ensure the correct output voltage is always guaranteed, preventing the risk of a break in power or excess voltage. The intervention of the by-pass circuit can be customised by means of a dedicated menu (Config. UPS, By-pass) which provides many options (automatic, disabled, by-pass in load waiting mode, etc.) in order to meet the specific demands of the application.

2.5 Information provided by the display

The main messages provided by the alphanumeric display in the three different operating modes are illustrated below.

WARNING

Your UPS is fitted with a circuit to protect it against the risk of incorrect connections. This eventuality will be

indicated by means of its red warning light, lit without flashing, and the continuous sounding of its internal buzzer. Should you note this signal immediately after switching the UPS on, switch it off and remove the power supply plug immediately.

3.4.3 Precautions for installation

• Electrical connections should only be done by trained personnel

• Do not modify the electric cables supplied

• Make sure that the mains outlet is connected securely to an earth circuit

• The mains outlet, or the circuit breaker, must be installed near the appliance and must be easily accessible

ATTENTION

(for versions 3 103 46/3 103 47/3 103 48/3 103 49)

The cables supplied are fitted with an input plug and outlet sockets whose maximum capacity is 16A. Therefore, we recommend use of direct cabling from the control panel to the connector supplied (follow instructions

for connections shown in Figs. 3 and 4 on Page 11) for applications where the anticipated UPS input current will be in excess of 13A (e.g. 5000 VA with Vinn=184V)

ATTENTION

(for versions 3 103 46/3 103 47/3 103 48/3 103 49)

Since current dispersion towards earth of all the loads merges in the UPS protection wire (earth wire), it is essential to

check that the sum of these currents does not exceed 2.7 mA, according to standard EN 62040-1, for safety reasons.

PLL Enable

If enabled, the UPS synchronises the output sine wave with the input If disabled, the output voltage is not synchronised with the input. This is indicated by the flashing of the status warning light (green)

Extended PLL Range

If enabled, the UPS synchronises the output voltage with the input for variations in frequency of +/-14% the nominal value. If disabled, the PLL is synchronised for variations in frequency of +/-2%.

NB: Redundancy Settings This function is used to manage the redundancy of the power modules. For example: a load requires N power modules; X power modules must be added to achieve N+X redundancy. If the load applied exceeds the power supplied by N modules during operation, the UPS will signal the lack of redundancy

A numerical example is given below:

NB: PLL Settings. The PLL function ensures the UPS output frequency is synchronised with the input so that the changeover at zero takes place at the exact same time. Should the by-pass intervene, e.g. due to unanticipated loads, input-output synchronisation is guaranteed.

6. Troubleshooting

Problems

Solutions

When the UPS is switched on, the buzzer sounds and the red warning light makes alternating short-long flashes, then the UPS switches off after 15 seconds.

The connection of the neutral conductor is wrong: invert the power supply plug, or invert the connections of the neutral and phase input leads, or exclude the neutral sensor.

The UPS works but a short beep is heard every 12 seconds and the yellow warning light is lit without flashing.

- Check power is present at the mains outlet.

- Check that the UPS power supply cable is correctly inserted in both the mains outlet and in the connector on the UPS itself.

- Check the fuse located at the side of the input/output connector under the plastic housing (refer to fig.1 or 4)

The UPS works but it beeps intermittently and the red warning light and the yellow warning light are flashing.

There is an overload on the UPS output. Reduce the quantity of appliances connected so that the load does not exceed the maximum power that the UPS can supply. Alternatively, if the UPS is not in its maximum configuration, you can ask your Service Centre to increase the power of your UPS by fitting extra power boards and relative batteries inside the UPS cabinet.

The UPS beeps continuously and the yellow warning light flashes for about 15 seconds, after which the UPS switches off.

The UPS has completely flattened its batteries; it can only start up again when the mains input line is present. Check the magneto-thermal or differential switches that precede the UPS and the input fuse

The UPS works but the green warning light is flashing quickly.

The mains supply is out of the limits permitted for the voltage and/or frequency, but it can still be used by the UPS. However, the by-pass function is not operational.

The UPS beeps intermittently and the red warning light is flashing quickly.

The thermal protection has been tripped. Switch the UPS off and wait for a few minutes so that the internal temperature of the UPS can get back to normal. Check that the fans operate correctly and that the relative airflow is not obstructed (e.g. if the UPS is too close to a wall). There is a fault on one of the internal circuits. Contact your service centre.
