INTRODUCTION AND SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Congratulations on your choice of the UPStation GXT™ Uninterruptible Power
System (UPS). It provides conditioned power to microcomputers and other
sensitive electronic equipment.
Upon generation, AC power is clean and stable. However, during transmission
and distribution it may be subject to voltage sags, spikes, or complete power
failure which may interrupt computer operations, cause data loss, or even
damage equipment. The UPStation GXT™ protects equipment from these
disturbances.
The UPStation GXT™ comes in nominal power ratings of 700, 1000, 1500, 2000,
or 3000 VA. Complete specifications appear near the end of this section.
The UPStation GXT™ is a compact, “on-line” UPS. An “on-line” UPS
continuously conditions and regulates its output voltage, whether the mains
power is present or not. It supplies connected equipment with clean sinewave
power. Sensitive electronic equipment operates best from sinewave power.
For ease of use, the UPStation GXT™ contains a light emitting diode (LED)
display to indicate either “load percentage” or “battery capacity” depending upon
the mode of operation. It also provides self-diagnostics, a combination On/Alarm
Silence/Manual Battery Test button, a combination Off/Bypass button, and two
levels of alarms when the unit is operating on battery.
The UPStation GXT™ has an interface port for communications between the
UPS and a LAN server or other computer system. This port provides detailed
operating information including voltages, currents, and alarm status to the host
system when used in conjunction with the SiteNet® 2 software. SiteNet® 2
software can also remotely control UPS operation.

TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSION (TVSS) AND EMI/RFI
FILTERS
These UPS components provide surge protection, and filter both electromagnetic
interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). They minimize any
surges or interference present in the mains line and keep the sensitive
equipment protected.
RECTIFIER/POWER FACTOR CORRECTION (PFC) CIRCUIT
In normal operation, the rectifier/power factor correction (PFC) circuit converts
mains AC power to regulated DC power for use by the inverter, while ensuring
that the waveshape of the input current used by the UPS is near ideal.
Extracting this sinewave input current achieves two objectives: the mains power
is used as efficiently as possible by the UPS, and the amount of distortion
reflected on the mains is reduced. This results in cleaner power being available
to other devices in the building not being protected by the UPStation GXT™.
INVERTER
In normal operation, the inverter utilizes the DC output of the power factor
correction circuit and “inverts” it into precise, regulated sinewave AC power.
Upon a mains power failure, the inverter receives its required energy from the
battery through the DC-DC converter. In both modes of the operation, the UPS
inverter is on-line and continuously generating clean, precise, regulated AC
output power.
BATTERY CHARGER
The battery charger utilizes energy from the mains power and precisely regulates
it to continuously “float” charge the battery system. The battery system charges
whenever the UPStation GXT™ is plugged in.
Page 6
6
DC TO DC CONVERTER
The DC-DC converter utilizes energy from the battery system and raises the DC
voltage to the optimum operating voltage for the inverter. This allows the inverter
to operate continuously at its optimum efficiency and voltage, thus increasing
reliability.
BATTERY
The UPStation GXT™ employs valve regulated, nonspillable, lead acid batteries.
At typical room temperatures and with the UPS float charging, the battery system
will last many years. Optional external battery cabinets are available to provide
extended run times for the rack-tower (RT) models. For battery run times, refer
to the Typical Battery Discharge Curves.
DYNAMIC BYPASS
The UPStation GXT™ provides an alternate path for mains power to the
connected load, in the unlikely event of a UPS malfunction. Should the UPS
have an overload, over temperature, or UPS failure condition, the UPS
automatically transfers the connected load to bypass. Bypass operation is
indicated by an alarm and an illuminated Bypass LED (other LED’s may be
illuminated to indicate the diagnosed problem). To manually transfer the
connected load from the inverter to bypass power, press the Off button once.
NOTE: The bypass power path does NOT protect the connected equipment
from disturbances on the mains supply.
