Chapter 1 Overview Chapter 1 Overview Developed by Vertiv, the Liebert EXS 30kVA and 40kVA UPS (UPS for short) is an intelligent, on-line UPS system with sine wave output that provides reliable, high-quality AC power for precision instrument applications. The UPS is available in a tower configuration and is ideal for supplying AC power to small scale computer centres, networks, communication systems, automatic control systems and precision instruments.
Page 12
In the event of an inverter failure, or if the output fuse blows, the load will be transferred automatically to the bypass, and the output power supply will not be interrupted. Should this condition occur, please contact your local Vertiv Tech Co.
Maintenance bypass The UPS is equipped with a second bypass circuit, known as the maintenance bypass, which provides a safe working environment for the engineers to carry out regular maintenance or repair the UPS system, while providing unregulated mains supply to the loads. The maintenance bypass can be activated manually selected by closing the maintenance bypass switch, and disconnected by setting the switch to OFF.
Also, two UPS modules or parallel systems may be used to form a dual bus system. Each parallel system has an independent output. The LBS cable or LBS device is used to synchronise the outputs, guaranteeing seamless load transfer between the two parallel systems or individual modules via the STS device. 1.3.1 Parallel System Features 1.
Page 15
Figure 1-3 Normal operating mode line diagram Battery mode In the event of a mains failure or if the mains voltage is outside tolerance, the rectifier and internal charger will stop running, and the battery will supply power to the load through the inverter. When the mains power supply is restored, the system will re-transfer automatically to normal operating mode without any manual intervention, and with no interruption in the power supply to the load.
Page 16
Maintenance operating mode line diagram Note In the event of UPS malfunctions or abnormal operation, contact your nearest Vertiv branch office or local service centre. NEVER attempt to repair the UPS yourself, as this may result in injury to personnel and/or damage to equipment.
To protect against the battery overcharge damage caused by long time boost charge, it is essential to set-up a protection time a protect time limit The time limit value is set-up by the service engineer using the VERTIV setting software.
BCB alarm The BCB alarm is generated when the external BCB is opened, if the (optional) Vertiv BCB is fitted. The external battery must be connected to the UPS via the BCB. The BCB is closed manually and tripped by the UPS control circuit.
1. The UPS should be installed by an qualified engineer in accordance with the information provided in this section. In the event of any problems, contact your local Vertiv service centre immediately. 2. The UPS must NOT be switched on without the approval of the commissioning engineer.
Figure 2-1 Insertion and movement 2.3 Tools Warning 1. For reasons of safety, all installation tools used on live components must be insulated. 2. The tools listed in Table 2-1 are for reference only; please adapt to the actual requirements for on-site installation and connection.
2.4 Unpacking Unpack the UPS and battery packages under the supervision of an authorized service engineer. Steps: 1. Use a pair of cutters to remove the packing strap, and remove the honeycomb board, as shown in Figure 2-2. Figure 2-2 Removing packing strap and honeycomb board 2.

2.6.2 Reserved Space Wall 墙壁 >200mm 500mm Cabinet 机柜 200mm Figure 2-5 Installation clearances (top view) Note 1. The UPS should only be installed on concrete or other non-inflammable surfaces. 2. As shown in Figure 2-5, there should be sufficient clearance between the rear panel and the wall. The clearance should not be less than 200mm, and should be sufficient to allow maintenance operations to be carried out.
2.7 Mechanical Requirements 2.7.1 Moving the Cabinet Warning 1. Ensure that the load capacity of the lifting equipment used to move the UPS cabinet is sufficient. Refer to Table 10-3 for weight information. 2. Due to the weight of the UPS cabinet, the castors may only be suitable for use on flat surfaces. 3.

Chapter 3 Electrical Installation This section principally introduces the UPS electrical installation procedures, including the power cable and signal cable connecting procedures and methods. Once the mechanical installation procedure is complete, it is necessary to connect the power and signal cables to the UPS.
Page 27
1. If the user’s cable CSA exceeds the value recommended in Table 3-2, or when installing cables that are difficult to bend, please contact Vertiv service engineers. 2. We recommend using flexible, multi-core cable in order to simplify cabling and installation procedures.
Page 28
4. Avoid coiling the cables as this would increase electromagnetic interference (EMI). 3.1.8 Power Cable Connection Steps Connection terminals and cable routing method Figure 3-1 illustrates the UPS power connection terminals and cable entry and routing methods. Warning Internal and external battery may not be selected simultaneously. Note 1.
Page 29
Connect the power cables to the respective terminals and secure the PE cables to the PE terminal, as illustrated in Figure 3-1. Fit shielding to protect the power cable from external damage. Refer to Table 3-1 for the tightening torque values.
Page 30
Warning Before connecting the cables, make sure that all the external and internal UPS power switches are set to OFF, and post the appropriate warning signs to prevent inadvertent operation of the switches. Meanwhile, measure the voltages between the UPS terminals, and the voltages between the terminals and earth.
Warning 1. Always wear arc protection gloves when connecting the batteries to avoid arc injuries. 2. Connect the battery terminals according to their respective colours. Failure to do so could result in battery short circuit and accident. 3. The battery terminals must be connected securely. 4.

When installing a parallel UPS system, follow the installation procedures for a single UPS module, with the additional requirements detailed in this section. Warning In order to ensure that the parallel system operates normally, the Vertiv service personnel must carry out the CAN resistance procedure. Failure to do so could result in system faults. 6.3.1 Preliminary Checks Make sure that correct parallel cable option has been selected, and that the module ratings, model, and software and hardware releases are consistent and compatible.
