1.1.1 System Description The Liebert Nfinity Power System is a modular UPS available in 8 & 12 bay frames. It is intended for use with workstations, servers, network, telecom and other sensitive electronic equipment. It pro- vides continuous, high-quality AC power to your equipment, protecting it from any power disturbance due to blackouts, brownouts, surges or noise interference.
8 bay 12 bay Control REPO Switch (SW2) Connection Nfinity weight and dimensions Max Weight - lb (kg) W x D x H - in. (mm) 855 (388) 20 x 28 x 40 (508 x 711 x 1016) 1176 (534)
Modes of Operation INPUT FILTER INTERFACE Normal Mode The Power Module rectifiers derive power from a utility AC source and supply regulated DC power to the inverter. The module’s inverter regenerates precise AC power to supply the connected equipment. The battery charger is in the Power Module and maintains a float-charge on the batteries. Backup Mode When AC utility fails, the connected equipment is supplied power by the inverter, which obtains energy from the Battery Modules.
Nfinity operates. 1.3.1 Unit Frame The front of the Nfinity consists of a series of plastic bezels. By grasping these bezels from the left and right sides and pulling straight out, you can remove the bezel to reveal the Battery / Power Module bays.
Under normal operation, the Green Status LED will blink continuously and the Yellow Fault LED will be off. For any condition other than this, check 4.0 - Troubleshooting. NOTE Nfinity is shipped with each battery module secured to the frame by two shipping screws. These screws should be removed prior to start-up. Battery Module...
NSTALLATION Inspection Upon receiving the UPS, examine the packaging for any signs of mishandling or damage. If any dam- age is noted, call your local dealer or Liebert representative and/or notify your carrier. 2.1.1 Environment NOTE Operating in temperatures above 77°F (25°C) will reduce battery life. The UPS environment must be free of conductive contaminants and excessive moisture (water and condensation), flammable vapors, chemical fumes, corrosive gases and liquids.
Unloading 2.2.1 Unloading the UPS CAUTION This UPS is very heavy (see weight in Table 1). At least two people should assist in unloading it from the pallet. 1. Use a ratchet or wrench, 1/2" (13mm), to remove the four mounting bolts from the front and rear pallet brackets.
5. Once the UPS is in the desired location, adjust the leveling feet to secure its position. 2.2.2 Stationary Mounting Additional stability can be added by bolting the mounting brackets (used in shipping) to the floor, as shown below left. Shipping Brackets Used for Stationary Mounting For greater stability, use a higher-grade bolt.
