Powerware 9315 Parallel Capacity/Redundant System with PHP SSBM
164201373 Rev. A 092402
Introduction
The Powerware 9315 Parallel Capacity/Redundant online power protection system
is utilized to prevent loss of valuable electronic information, minimize equipment
downtime, and/or minimize the adverse effect on equipment production due to
unexpected power problems.
The Powerware 9315 Parallel Capacity/Redundant System continually monitors
incoming electrical power and removes the surges, spikes, sags, and other
irregularities that are inherent in commercial utility power. Working with your
building’s electrical system, the Parallel Capacity/Redundant System supplies
clean, consistent power that your sensitive electronic equipment requires for
reliable operation. And during brownouts, blackouts, and other power
interruptions, optional battery racks provide emergency power to safeguard
your operation.
The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system, using the Powerware
t
PowerHandlerPlus
eight UPMs to operate in parallel to provide more capacity than a single UPM and
as backup for each other. The Parallel Capacity/Redundant system can supply up
to 4000 Amps, depending on the SSBM used. In addition, when one UPM is taken
out of service for maintenance or is not operating properly, the redundant UPM
continues to supply uninterrupted power to the critical load. The Parallel
Capacity/Redundant system refers to the SSBM in conjunction with the UPMs. The
Parallel Capacity/Redundant system consists of a Switchboard System Bypass
Module with optional System Maintenance Bypass (SMB), two or more UPMs, and
battery racks or cabinets. Each UPM may have its own battery rack, or may share
the same battery rack with the other UPMs. The SSBM has temporary load bank
tabs to allow full load testing of the UPMs and the SSBM.
Your UPMs functions automatically and requires very little attention during normal
operation. However, you should read and understand the procedures described in
this manual to ensure trouble-free operation. In particular, you should be
thoroughly familiar with the Emergency UPM Off procedure described in Chapter 7
of this manual and Emergency Load Off procedure described in the Powerware
9315 UPS Operation manual provided with the UPM.
This manual describes how to install and operate your Powerware
Parallel Capacity/Redundant system. The installation section contains instructions
for installing the Powerware PowerHandlerPlus
Module (SSBM). The operation section contains instructions for operating the
SSBM and UPMs while paralleling for capacity/redundancy. The information you
use depends on the system you purchased.
Switchboard System Bypass Module (SSBM), allows two to
9315
t
Switchboard System Bypass
NOTE: The installation procedures of this manual only refer to the SSBM and its
connection to the UPS modules for parallel capacity/redundancy operation.
The operation section of this manual refers to the operation for the SSBM
and the UPMs when paralleling for capacity/redundancy. For full installation
and operation of the UPMs, refer to the Powerware 9315 UPS Installation
and Powerware 9315 UPS Operation manuals provided with the UPMs.
Each component of your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system is housed in a
free-standing cabinet. The UPM cabinets line up and match in style and color, and
have safety shields behind the doors for hazardous voltage protection. Figure 1
shows a typical Parallel Capacity/Redundant System.

Getting Started
1.1 Installing the UPS
The Switchboard System Bypass Module (SSBM) and UPMs of the Parallel
Capacity/Redundant system are shipped on separate pallets. Use a forklift or pallet
jack to move the packaged cabinets to the installation site, or as close as possible
to the site, before unloading from the pallet.
This is the basic sequence of the installation steps:
1. Create an installation plan for the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system
(Chapter 1).
2. Prepare your site for the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system (Chapter 1).
3. Inspect, unpack, and unload the SSBM (Chapter 1).
4. Inspect, unpack, and unload the UPMs (refer to the applicable Powerware
9315 Installation manual provided with the UPM).
1
5. Wire the system (refer to Chapter 2 and the applicable Powerware 9315
Installation manual provided with the UPM).
6. Install features, accessories, and/or options, as applicable (Chapter 3).
7. Complete the Installation Checklist (Chapter 2).
8. Have authorized service personnel perform preliminary operational checks and
startup.
NOTE: Startup and operational checks should be performed only by authorized
service personnel. This service is usually offered as part of the sales
contract for your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system.Contactservicein
advance (usually a two week notice is required) to reserve a preferred
startup date.
1.1.1 Creating an Installation Plan
Before beginning to install the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system, read and
understand how this manual applies to the system being installed. Use the
procedures and illustrations in the following chapters to create a logical plan for
installing the system. It is important to note that UPM installation procedures are

1.1.2 Preparing Your Site
For your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system to operate at peak efficiency, your
installation site should meet the environmental parameters outlined in the
operator’s manual for the SSBM and UPMs. If you intend to operate the system at
an altitude higher than 1500 meters (5000 feet), contact your local sales or service
office for important information about high altitude operation. The operating
environment must meet the size and weight requirements shown in the enclosed
vendor drawings.
The basic environmental requirements for operation of the Parallel
Capacity/Redundant system are:
Ambient Temperature Range: 0 --- 2 5 ˚C (32---77˚F)
Recommended Operating Range: 20---25˚C ( 6 8 --- 7 7 ˚F)
Maximum Relative Humidity: 95% noncondensing
The UPM cabinets use forced air cooling to regulate internal component temperature.
The SSBM, battery and optional component cabinets use convection cooling to
regulate internal component temperature. Air inlets are in the front of the cabinet, and
outlets are in the top. You must allow clearance in front of and above each cabinet for
proper air circulation.
1.1.3 Environment Considerations
The life of the Parallel Capacity/Redundant system will be adversely affected if the
installation does not meet the following guidelines:
1. The system must be installed on a sealed concrete pad or a sealed concrete
floor.
2. The system must be installed in a temperature-controlled indoor area free of
conductive contaminants.
1.1.4 Preparing for Wiring the Parallel Capacity/Redundant
System
NOTE: The external wiring and conduit sizings described in this manual are only
provided as a recommended approach. Many design considerations may
require an external wiring and conduit configuration much different than the
examples provided in this manual. Applicable local codes and national
codes must be followed.
Table A in Appendix A covers SSBM and SMB power cabling for a 3
∅
system. Table A is based on the entire 3
ambient and the use of 90_C copper wire. The 500kcmil and 600kcmil cables
are used as examples.
Table B in Appendix A covers SSBM and SMB power cabling for a 3
system. Table B is based on the entire 3
ambient, use of 90_C copper wire and a 0.80 derating factor because there are
more than three current carrying conductors in a raceway (NEC Table 310 ---16
and Notes). The 500kcmil and 600kcmil cables are used as examples.

A), E9 (∅B), E10 (∅C),
and E4 (Neutral)
Table O covers the recommended wiring and conduit sizing based on the
applicable Powerware 9315 Installation manual provided with the UPM. Using
the noted power wiring, Table O shows the number of UPMs that can be
connected toeach SSBM model. This number of UPMs is limitedby thenumber
of cables connections for the SSBM module input terminals E8, E9, E10, and
E4showninTableCinAppendixA.
If the parallel capacity/redundant system requires the connection of more
UPMs to the SSBM than is shown in T a ble O, refer to Table P. Table P covers
the recommended wiring and conduit sizing to support connection of the
maximum number of UPMs (up to eight) for each SSBM model.
CAUTION:
The UPM output wiring configurations in Table O in Appendix A do not
that shown in the applicable Powerware 9315 UPS Installation manual. Review
the planned UPM output power cables to ensure the planned cabling is
compatible with the available number of cable connections at both the UPM
and SSBM terminals.
match
Powerware UPMs are rated for operation in a 40_C room ambient. For this
∅
reason, Table O and P are based on the entire 3
/ 3W system being housed
in a 40_C room ambient, the use of 90_C copper wire and a 0.80 derating factor
because there are more than three current carrying conductors in a raceway
(NEC Table 310 ---16 and Notes).
Refer to the applicable Powerware 9315 Installation manual provided with the
UPM for all other UPM power cable requirements (AC input, DC input, and
grounding)
NOTE: Review Table C in Appendix A to ensure the planned power cable
configuration is compatible with the available number of cable connections
at each SSBM and SBM terminal.
NOTE: If additional cable connections are required, consider using FCI HYSTACK
Type ASA --- U adapters. HYSTACK P/N ASA250U covers NEMA 2-hole
terminals for wire siz es from #8 AWG to 250kcmil. HYSTACK P/N ASA800U
covers NEMA 2-hole terminals for wire sizes from #8 AWG to 800kcmil.
Care must be taken in HYSTACK adapters to ensure the required
phase-to-phase clearance of 1 inch and phase-to-ground clearance of
1 inch (1.5 inches in Canada) is maintained.
For external wiring, including the recommended minimum AWG size of external
wiring, see Tables A, B, O, and P in Appendix A. The power wiring connections for
this equipment are rated at 90˚C. Ifwireisruninanambienttemperaturegreater
than noted above, higher temperature and/or larger size wire may be necessary.
Control wiring for PowerNet, EPO and optional accessories (such as building
alarms, monitoring interface and Maintenance Bypass control) should be
connected at the customer interface panel at the top of the SSBM Powernode
Panel (A1), which is shown in drawing 164201373---12 in Appendix A.
