APC – MGE Galaxy 5000 Specification (60Hz) 5
Parallel Module
Effective: June 1, 2008 REV X0 JJG
Incoming AC power shall be converted to a regulated DC output voltage by an IGBT
(insulated gate bipolar transistor) power factor correction (PFC) rectifier. The PFC rectifier
shall provide high quality DC power to charge the batteries and power the inverter and shall
have the following characteristics:
1. Input Power Factor Correction (PFC): The PFC rectifier shall be power factor
corrected so as to maintain an input power factor of 0.98 lagging to unity at 75% or above
load levels to ensure generator compatibility and avoid reflected harmonics from
disturbing loads sharing the utility power.
2. Input Harmonic Current Suppression: The PFC rectifier shall produce a sinusoidal
input AC current on each phase with low harmonic content, limiting THD on the UPS
input to below 5%.
3. Battery Charger Current Limiting: The UPS shall be equipped with a system designed
to limit the battery recharge current (from 0.05 C10 to 0.1 C10).
4. Charging Levels: The battery charging circuitry shall be capable of being set for
automatic battery recharge operation, float service, manual battery charge service, and
equalizing or commissioning operation.
5. Intermittent Charging: The battery charge level shall be maintained by an intermittent
charging technique between two values Vfmin and Vfmax very close to the floating
voltage. This technique shall be based on a cycle made up of a short charge period (a
few seconds) from Vfmin to Vfmax followed automatically by a slow discharge period (a
few minutes) from Vfmax to Vfmin. This cycle shall be repeated continuously to maintain
the battery charge level. In this way the battery shall actually be charging only for a small
part of the time, which considerably increases its service life.
6. Temperature Compensated Charging: The battery charger shall be equipped with a
temperature probe to enable temperature compensated charging and adjust the battery
float voltage to compensate for the ambient temperature using a negative temperature
coefficient of 3 mV per cell per degree Celsius at a nominal temperature of 25°C.
7. Battery Capacity : The battery charger shall have sufficient capacity to support a fully
loaded inverter and fully recharge the battery to 95% of its full capacity within 6-8 hours
up to 4 battery cabinets..
B. Inverter
The UPS output shall be derived from a Variable Frequency Pulse Width Modulated (PWM)
IGBT inverter design. The inverter shall be capable of providing the specified precise output
power characteristics while operating over the battery voltage range.
C. Static Bypass – 100% Rated, Continuous Duty

mechanical contactor device in parallel for higher reliability and consistent response time and
shall operate under the following conditions:
APC – MGE Galaxy 5000 Specification (60Hz) 6
Parallel Module
Effective: June 1, 2008 REV X0 JJG
1. Uninterrupted Transfer: The static bypass transfer switch shall automatically cause the
bypass source to assume the critical load without interruption after the logic senses one of
the following conditions:
a) Inverter overload exceeds unit's rating
b) Battery protection period expired and bypass current is available
c) Inverter failure
2. Interrupted Transfer: If the bypass source is beyond the conditions stated below, the UPS
will make an interrupted transfer (not less than 100 mSec in duration).
a) Bypass voltage greater than + 10%, -10% from the UPS rated output voltage.
b) Bypass frequency greater than
+ 2 Hz from the UPS rated output frequency.
3. Automatic Uninterrupted Forward Transfer: The static bypass transfer switch shall
automatically forward transfer power, without interruption, after the UPS inverter is turned
"ON" after an instantaneous overload-induced reverse transfer has occurred and the load
current returns the UPS’s nominal rating or less.
4. Manual Transfer: A manual static transfer shall be initiated from the UPS Control Panel by
turning the UPS inverter off.
5. Overload Ratings: The static bypass transfer switch shall have the following overload
characteristics:
a) 1000% of UPS output rating for 0.016 seconds (one cycle)
b) 150% for 1 minute
c) 125% of UPS for 10 minutes
D. Output Static Switch – 100% Rated, Continuous Duty

contactor device in parallel for higher reliability and consistent response time of 16.66 msec.
