INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
LIEBERT LM SERIES SURGE PROTECTIVE DEVICE
The Liebert LM Series Surge Protective Device is a high quality, high energy surge current diversion system designed to protect sensitive equipment from damaging transient voltage surges. Proper installation is required for maximum system performance.
UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION
Unpacking and Preliminary Inspection
1. Inspect the shipping crate(s) for damage or signs of
mishandling before unpacking the unit.
2. Remove any securing bands and cardboard packing
and inspect the unit for any obvious shipping damages.
3. If any damage as a result of shipping is observed,
immediately file a claim with the shipping agency and forward a copy to your local Liebert Sales Representative.
Handling Considerations
Larger units are bolted to a shipping pallet to facilitate handling by forklift or pallet jack. Check the size and weight. Refer to the cabinet data furnished with the unit. Typical size and weights are referred to in Figure 1.
Storage
The unit should be stored in a clean, dry environment. Storage temperature range is -55ºC (-67ºF) to +85ºC (+185ºF). Care should be taken to avoid condensation. All packing and shipping materials should be left intact until the unit is ready for final installation. If the unit has been stored for an extended period of time, the unit should be cleaned and carefully inspected before placing into service.
Location Considerations
Environment – The unit is designed for operation indoors in
ambient temperatures of -40ºC (-40ºF) to +60ºC (+140ºF) with a relative humidity of 0% to 95% (non­condensing).
The unit is provided in a metallic industrial enclosure, which should not be installed in areas with excessive dust, corrosive vapors, flammable materials or explosive atmospheres.
The installer should perform the following steps to assure a quality installation. The entire installation manual should be read before starting installation. These instructions do not replace national or local electrical codes. Check applicable electrical codes to ensure compliance. Installation of the Liebert LM Series Surge Protective Device should only be performed by qualified personnel.
Audible Noise – The audible noise of the unit is less that 40
dBA at 5 feet, which allows its placement within almost any room if desired.
Service Clearances – Service clearance is needed only at the
front of the unit. Thirty-six inches (36in / 914mm) minimum is recommended.
Equipment Performance – For maximum system
performance, the unit must be located as close to the protected circuit as practical to minimize interconnecting wiring length.
For optimum transient surge protection, coordinated surge suppression should be applied at the service entrance and all other electrical connections to the building (telephone, CATV, etc.), at known surge generating loads within the building (large motors, arc welders, switched capacitors, etc.), as well as at sensitive electronic loads (such as computers, electronic appliances, solid state motor drives, etc.). For interconnected electronic loads (such as by way of data cabling), transient surge suppression should also be applied to the interconnecting wiring (data cables).
Mounting – Unit is intended to be wall mounted. Refer to
Figure 1 or unit submittal drawings for typical mounting dimensions and weight.
Door Closing Adjustments
Single Door (Wall Mounted) – If the surface on which the
enclosure is mounted is not flat, the door may not open and close properly. Also, if heavy equipment is mounted on a large door, the door may sag slightly. If the top of the door strikes the lip which extends around the body opening, place metal shims behind the mounting foot which is located at the bottom of the enclosure and closest to the door hinge. Place the shims between the mounting foot and the wall or mounting surface. Be sure all mounting screws are tightened securely.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Suppression
Systems
All electrical connections should be installed by a qualified (licensed) electrician only. All wiring must comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes.
VERIFY THAT ALL POWER CIRCUITS ARE DE-ENERGIZED AND LOCKED OUT BEFORE MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS.
Voltage Ratings & Power Source Configurations
Before making connections to the unit, verify that the unit model number and nameplate voltage rating are appropriate for connection to the intended power source. See Figure 2 for voltage rating applications with typical power source configurations.
Surge Voltage Ratings – To obtain the suppression voltage
ratings (SVRs), as obtained by Underwriters Laboratory, Incorporated, in accordance with the Standard for
Safety, Surge Protective Devices (SPDs), Standard 1449,
Second Edition, dated August 15, 1996, marked on this
product, #8 AWG wire must be utilized to connect the LM series to your facilities’ power grid. Connections made with conductors other that #8 AWG may result in different SVRs.
Circuit Ampacity Limitations – This device has been
investigated by Underwriters Laboratories, Incorporated to withstand, without exposing live circuits or components on power sources, a voltage of two times (2x) the device ratings, and fault currents of up to 300,000 AIC, as described in the Standard for Safety,
Surge Protective Devices (SPDs), Standard 1449, Second Edition, dated August 15, 1996.
Parallel Connection (see Figures 3 and 4)
With parallel connection, the length of the wiring to the surge protective device (SPD) unit must be minimized for best performance. Wire lengths longer that 10 feet must be avoided.
To reduce the wiring impedance to surge currents, the phase, neutral (if required), and ground conductors are recommended to be twisted together and routed in the same raceway (conduit). Avoid any sharp bends in the conductors.
Wire Sizing – With parallel connection, the size of the
wiring to the SPD unit is independent of the protected circuit’s ampacity. Suggested wire size of the product is a number 8 gauge conductor minimum. Please reference Figure 1. NEC Articles 280-21 and 22 require surge arrestor connecting conductors to be at least #14 copper or #12 aluminum.
Overcurrent Protection – The SPD unit conducts
practically no current under normal operation and only conducts very short duration transient surge currents. The Liebert SPD units contain UL approved internal fusing to protect against device failure.
External overcurrent protection is not specifically required by NEC Article 280 nor is it desired since it impedes the performance of the surge protective device. If fusing is required, please consult factory for recommendations.
Disconnect Switch – SPD units must be connected to the
load side of the service disconnect, or load side of a protected circuit’s disconnecting means. For best performance, the SPD unit must be located very close to the circuit to be protected and minimum interconnecting wiring used.
A disconnect switch is sometimes used to facilitate servicing the SPD unit. However, use of a disconnect switch for the SPD unit impedes the transient surge suppressing performance of the unit. For maximum transient surge suppressor performance, no disconnect switch is recommended. If a disconnect switch is used, the location and wiring of the switch and SPD unit should minimize the interconnecting wiring (see Figure
4).
Installation, Operation - 5 - LM Series and Maintenance Manual Rev 0, 5/99
Models with a “R” suffix are equipped with an internal disconnect switch, which can be used to de-energize the unit’s transient surge suppressing components for servicing.

System Grounding & Bonding
The performance and safety of any SPD system is dependent on proper grounding and bonding. Grounding is required primarily for safety. Correct implementation also enhances equipment performance. Incorrect grounding can reduce or impede the SPD’s operation.
All electrical circuits to or from the SPD must include an equipment grounding conductor as required by the NEC and local codes.
An insulated grounding conductor is recommended in addition to any metallic raceway, which may be used as a grounding conductor. For parallel-connected SPD, the grounding conductor should be the same wire size as the associated power conductors.
When metallic raceways are used, adequate electrical continuity must be maintained at all raceway connections, particularly raceway terminations to the electrical enclosures.
The use of isolating bushings or other means to interrupt a metallic conduit run is a potential safety hazard and is not recommended.
Grounding Electrode – Contrary to popular belief, surge
protective devices do not discharge all surges to ground (earth). Surge protective devices divert the surge current back to its source to complete the electrical circuit.
In the case of lightning whose potential is developed with respect to the earth, the SPD diverts the surge current to the grounding electrode (earth connection). However, for most transient surges which are developed by switching loads, the SPD diverts the surge current back to its source without involving the grounding electrode.
For proper SPD performance, the service entrance grounding electrode system must comply with the NEC by having all available electrodes (building steel, metal water pipe, driven rods, concrete encased electrodes, etc.) properly bonded together and connected to the power system grounding.
The use of a separate grounding electrode to ground the SPD defeats the effectiveness of the SPD, is a potential safety hazard, may cause equipment damage, is an NEC violation (reference NEC 250-51 and 250-54), and is not recommended.

Liebert SPD Systems require little or no operator intervention after installation.
The units are provided with diagnostic indicators and alarms (optional) which assist in determining when the unit needs service (see Troubleshooting/Repair/Maintenance Section).
Each active surge current diverter module is equipped with a green and red LED. If the unit is energized and the green LED is off (and/or the red LED is on), the surge current diverter module is not fully functional and requires replacement. See the maintenance section of this manual for additional information.
System Monitor Panel – The unit may be equipped with
one or more of the following status indicators or alarms:
Summary Alarm Contact – Summary alarm Form C (1
N.O. and 1 N.C.) relay contacts are provided for remote indication of each failed surge current diverter module/s.
For standard units (LED only), access to the summary alarm contacts are provided via connection to the orange and yellow 18 gauge conductors, located on the inside of the panel (see Figure 1). For units with optional accessories, access to the summary alarm contacts are provided via contact terminals located on the printed circuit board mounted on the inside of the unit’s door (see Figure 1). Contacts are rated for 5 amps at 277 VAC maximum.
Transient Counter (optional) – A single transient counter is
provided for transient voltage surge monitoring. The counter totalizes surges monitored since the last counter reset.
The transient counter monitors line to ground transient voltages. The circuit totalizes all surges that deviate from the line sine wave envelope by more that 125 volts. The counter is AC coupled and rejects transients longer than 100 µs.

If one or more of the surge current diverter modules requires replacement, the green “OK” LED is turned off and the red “Service” LED illuminated.
Front Panel Counter Reset Disable / Enable Button
(provided on units with Transient Counters only) –
The counter is resettable from the counter reset switch. The front reset may be disabled internally to provide protection against tampering. To disable the front reset follow the procedure below:
1) Remove power from the unit, lock out and tag the
disconnect or circuit breaker.
2) Open door and verify power is off with a voltmeter.
3) Throw SWXI on the power supply board to the
disable position.
Audible Alarm (optional) – If one or more of the surge
current diverter modules requires replacement, an audible alarm is activated to draw attention to the fact that repair service is required to restore the system to normal operation. An audible alarm disable is provided to silence the alarm. The system will automatically reset itself after repair. The audible alarm switch and “Service” LED can be tested by depressing the “Test” switch on the system monitor panel.

Remote Monitor Panel (optional) – A remote monitor
panel is available to provide unit status and alarm information at a location up to 500 feet away from the LM Series Surge Protection System. Operation of the Remote Monitor Panel is similar to the unit system monitor panel. The “Enable” position of the switch is the normal position, which allows audible alarm operation. The “Disable” switch position silences the audible alarm. The “Test” position tests the audible alarm and indicator lights.
The remote monitor panel requires and external source of power. Standard units are furnished with a six-foot power cord with a NEMA 5-15 plug for connection to a 120 VAC source. Control connections are required from the remote monitor panel to the power supply board in the LM Series Surge Protection System. Connections are made by way of two-conductor control cable fitted with “RCA” plugs on one end (see Figure 5), which is not furnished with the remote monitor panel.

Control Concepts warrants for the period and on the terms of the Warranty set forth herein that the Control Concepts product will conform to the descriptions contained in Control Concepts' final invoices, orders and Control Concepts' product brochures. Control Concepts does not control the installation and use of any Control Concepts product. Accordingly, it is understood that the Descriptions are NOT WARRANTIES OF PERFORMANCE and NOT WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Obtaining Performance Under This Warranty:
Within a reasonable time, but in no case to exceed thirty (30) days, after User's discovery of a defect, User shall contact Control Concepts and request a return authorization number. User shall ship the product, with proof of purchase, to Control Concepts freight prepaid. Control Concepts products shipped to Control Concepts without a return authorization number will be refused and returned freight collect to User at User's expense. Control Concepts products shipped by User to Control Concepts which have incurred freight damage due to User's improper packaging of the product will not be covered by this Warranty and any repairs or replacement parts, components or products needed will be invoiced in the full current price amount and returned freight collect to User.
Subject to the limitations specified herein, Control Concepts will repair or replace, at its option, without charge for Control Concepts labor or materials, subsequent to its inspection and F.O.B. Control Concepts' facility, the Control Concepts product shipped to Control Concepts with a return authorization number and warranted hereunder which does not conform to the Warranty. Replacement parts, components or products shipped to User prior to Control Concepts' receipt and inspection of the product claimed to be defective, shall be invoiced in the full current price amount and shipped freight collect F.O.B. Control Concepts' facility. Warranty coverage will be extended only after Control Concepts' receipt of the claimed defective product within thirty (30) days of shipment of any replacement parts, components or products, if applicable, Control Concepts' inspection discloses the claimed defect and the returned product shows no signs of treatment or use which would void the coverage of this Warranty.

THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER shipping costs, installation costs, circuit breaker resetting or maintenance or service items and further, except as provided herein, does NOT include labor costs or transportation charges arising from the replacement of the Control Concepts product or any part thereof or charges to remove same from any premises of the User.
THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER DAMAGE OR DEFECT CAUSED BY use of the Control Concepts product in combination with any electrical or electronic components, circuits, systems, assemblies, or other materials not furnished by Control Concepts. Control Concepts does NOT warrant the suitability for use or the results of the Control Concepts product in combination with the products of others.
