Disregard of these safety notes may endanger your life and health as well as the functioning of your equipment and the safety of your data. WARNING: This equipment services power from more than one source. The output receptacles may have voltage even when the unit is unplugged. UPSs present a different safety issue than most electrical equipment because unplugging the UPS puts it into backup mode. Unplugging the UPS does not remove the electrical charge. To ensure that the UPS is off, push BYPASS (for a minimum of 1 second) before unplugging the UPS from the mains. CAUTION: Operating this equipment without proper grounding may present a risk of electrical shock. Do not use AC adaptors with only two conductors to connect the input line cord to the wall socket as this will not connect the earth ground to the equipment. WARNING: Dangerous voltages are present within this unit! There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Any repairs or modifications by the user may result in out-of-warranty repair charges, unsafe electrical conditions, or violation of electrical code. This device complies with the relevant safety regulations for uninterruptible power supplies for use in a controlled office environment. If you have any questions, please contact Chloride Technical Service at 1- 800-879-5011.

• Transport the unit only in suitable packaging (protect against jolts and shocks). • If the equipment is moved indoors from a cold environment, condensation may occur. Before you place the equipment in service it must be absolutely dry. An acclimatization period of at least two hours is required. • This equipment must be installed in an indoor, temperature controlled environment that is free of conductive contaminants. See chapter 10, “Active Tower and Rackmount Specifications” on page 22 for specific environmental limits. • The Active equipment has a safety-tested power cable and may only be connected to a properly grounded receptacle. • The switch (see chapter 2, “Display and Operation Elements (Active)” on page 3) does not isolate the device (UPS) from the mains. To isolate completely from the mains, the main switch must be switched off and the power plug disconnected. CAUTION: Removing mains power may not remove power from the device (UPS) output. See instructions above to properly remove power from output. • In case of interruption of the mains voltage, the integrated battery maintains the power supply to the connected equipment. • Lay all cables so that nobody can stand on them or trip over them. When connecting the device to the power supply, follow the instructions in the chapter on “Active Installation and Commissioning” on page 11. • No data transmission lines should be connected or disconnected during a thunderstorm. • Make sure that no objects (e.g. pins, necklaces, paper clips, etc.) get inside the device. • In emergencies (e.g. damaged case, controls or power cables, penetration of liquids or foreign matter) put the device into BYPASS, disconnect the power plug and contact Chloride Technical Services at 1-800-879-5011. • Do not connect equipment that will overload the UPS (e.g. laser printers or vacuum cleaners) or demand DC-current (e.g. half-wave rectifiers or hair dryers). • When cleaning the unit, follow the instructions in chapter 7, “Maintenance (Active)” on page 19. • The sum of the leakage currents (protective conductor current) of the UPS and the connected devices must not exceed 3.5 mA for the types Active 700, 1000, 2000 and 3000. Chloride Active UPS is UL listed under UL1778 for North American units.

3 Chapter 2 Display and Operation Elements (Active) The Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) is connected between AC power and the load. It protects the load against mains disturbances, especially power failures. Its operation is based on the on-line principle. The connected load is supplied power through the UPS’s inverter. Power disturbances from the mains are suppressed which increases the loads’ operational security (PC, network server, multi-user systems etc.) In the event of a mains failure, maintenance-free batteries provide an uninterrupted supply of energy. In practice, mains failures are of relatively short duration, dependent on the mains quality. Therefore, the UPS’ energy is in most cases sufficient to ensure continuous operation of the connected systems, until the mains is reestablished. In the event of a longer lasting mains failure it allows for controlled shutdown of connected systems. The UPS indicates by acoustical (buzzer) and optical (LED) alarms that a mains failure has occurred and is still persistent. Battery runtimes vary depending upon load, number of batteries and environmental conditions. The following chart shows the approximate values of the emergency runtime (assuming fully charged battery at the onset of the mains failure.) Load in % A700 A1000 A2000 A3000 OVERLOAD >105 95-105 6 min 7 min 10 min 6 min LOAD 75-95 7 min 8 min 11 min 7 min 55-75 10 min 11 min 16 min 10 min 35-55 15 min 17 min 24 min 15 min 1-35 28 min 33 min 37 min 28 min • The actual battery capacity can be read from the LED-”battery” chain (see table below). Battery Capacity Battery 1 - 35% 35 - 55% 55 - 75% 75 - 95% 95 - 100% The most reliable method for determining actual battery runtime is the application of Chloride MopUPS® software. With this software, the prospective remaining battery capacity is indicated before and during an AC power failure. Furthermore, shutdown procedures can be automated. Depending on the application program, operating system and computer hardware, it can be ensured that in the event of a power failure the application programs are automatically closed, the subscribers logged in at the server are logged out, the data is stored and the operating systems are shut down. For further information please refer to our publication about the Chloride ManageUPS™NET SNMP Adapter. After return of the mains voltage, the UPS automatically initiates a restart. The connected systems are restarted according to their specifications. In the event of overload or internal failure, the load is supplied from the mains via an automatic bypass. As soon as the normal status is reestablished, automatic switchover to inverter operation is performed. This operation manual contains all relevant information to install and operate the UPS.

2.1 Front The OVERLOAD indicator is on when the UPS is overloaded. The LED-chain LOAD indicates the load state of the UPS. The BYPASS indicator is on when the UPS supplies a voltage via the bypass. The INVERTER indicator is on when the inverter is in operation. The LED-chain BATTERY indicates the battery’s charge state (normal operation) or the % of battery time remaining when mains fail. The LINE indicator is on when there is mains voltage at the UPS input. The ALARM indicator is on when the UPS is faulty. Simulta- neously, an acoustical signal is given, which can be reset by pressing the BYPASS switch. The switch switches the inverter off and the bypass on. The UPS still has output voltage. Operating the switch | activates the inverter. After a delay of approximately 5 seconds the BYPASS indicator extinguishes and the INVERTER indicator illuminates. NOTE: To switch from BYPASS to INVERTER, press the | switch for at least 1 second. (A tone sounds confirming the switch).

13 Chapter 5 Operational Characteristics (Active) 5.1 Ready for Operation Check To check the emergency supply feature of the UPS, it must be disconnected from the mains. When correctly functioning with charged batteries, an acoustical signal in intervals of 4 seconds will be heard. The LED “LINE” (line voltage) indicator disappears. When the interval between the acoustical signals is reduced to 1 second, the UPS will supply energy for a maximum of 3 more minutes before it is automatically switched off. The load will be supplied from the batteries during the specified emergency supply period. If this is not so, then please check in chapter 8 “Troubleshooting (Active)” on page 20. Reconnect the UPS with the mains. The UPS is now again ready for normal operation. Please note, that the batteries have to be recharged before the complete emergency supply period is again available. 5.2 Self Test The self test is a LED test. With the UPS connected to the AC power, switch | has to be operated for at least 1 second. • Acknowledgment of the input is given by a single acoustical signal. • The elements of the LED “BATTERY” chain are illuminated according to the battery’s load status. The “LINE” and “BYPASS” indicators are illuminated. • Initially all elements of the LED “LOAD” chain are illuminated. Beginning with the top indicator, all elements of this chain will extinguish one after the other. Thereafter the elements are on according to the UPS load status. • The “BYPASS” indicator turns off after approximately 5 seconds and the “Inverter” indicator illuminates. The load is supplied through the inverter, the energy is taken from the mains.

5.3 Modes of Operation There are three modes of operation, when the UPS is switched on. 5.3.1 Normal Operation, Inverter On (Mains Available) Lights Illuminated Fig. 14: Front Display Panel During Normal Operations (Mains Available) The loads are supplied through the inverter, the energy is taken from the mains. 5.3.2 Battery Operation, Inverter On (Mains Failure) Lights Illuminated During Power Failure Fig. 15: Front Display Panel During Battery Operation (Mains Failure) In the event of a mains failure, the inverter continues to supply the loads without interruption, the energy is taken from the battery. In this operation mode, an acoustical signal is given in intervals of approximately 4 seconds. When reaching the battery’s energy minimum, this signal is given at one second intervals.

15 5.3.3 Bypass Operation, Inverter OFF (Overload > 140%) Lights Illuminated in BYPASS Operation Fig. 16: Front Display Panel During Bypass Operation (Overload > 140%) In the event of large overload (> 140%) switch-over to bypass is initiated and the inverter is blocked. The energy is taken from the mains. This is not a normal operating status. In the event of mains failure the loads will no longer be supplied (no UPS operation).

Chapter 6 Description of the Interface (Active) The Active UPS has a standard interface COM A and an optional interface COM B. Protocol data transfer signal exchange is through COM A RS232 interface or the optional interface (COM B). These interfaces can be used for: • Direct communication between UPS and a computer. • Integration of the UPS as client into a network with centralized monitoring. • Transfer of operational states to external alarm systems. The necessary communication software packages and interface cables are available as accessories. 6.1 Standard Interface COM A The 9-pin SUB-D connector (pin contacts) contains the RS 232 signals, 5 output signals and 1 input signal. The RS232 signal RXD can also be used as input signal, when the sequential interface is not used. The 5 alarm outputs are open-collector outputs. Fig. 17: COM A signal Definition and Connection The interface COM A is galvanically separated from all other circuits.

Pin Number Condition SGN at pin 5 This connection point serves as a reference for all signals. RXD at pin 2 and TXD at pin 3 In conforms standard RS232 configuration. INV SHUTDOWN at pin 2 This input (pin 2: High signal +5V...+12V, tŠ 1 second, pin 5: 0V) enables the control processor to switch off the UPS in the event of a mains failure. After the mains has been reestablished, the UPS starts again independent of this signal status. BATTERY LOW at pin 1 This output goes low, when the battery can supply current for approximately 3 more minutes at nominal load. AC FAIL at pin 9 and AC FAIL at pin 6 Pin 9 goes low and pin 6 goes high for mains voltage failure at the UPS input for a minimum of 10 seconds or when the mains voltage moves beyond the tolerance band. The signal is reset 850 ms after the mains have been reestablished. BYPASS ACTIVE at pin 7 This signal goes low after switching over to bypass, blocking the inverter and the energy being supplied by the mains SUM ALARM at pin 8 This output is low, when one of the alarms “BATTERY LOW”, “AC FAIL” or “BYPASS ACTIVE” is given. Chloride Active and E-Series UPS User Manual 17 6.2 Optional Interface COM B The optional interface COM can be equipped with various interface cards. The designation beside the plug then depends on the type of interface card. In Figure 18, the function of the interface signals for version COM B is described. The optional interface COM B provides potential-free signalling contacts and a shutdown input and an insulated auxiliary supply. Fig. 18: Simplified Schematic of Interface Connections Troubleshooting Optional Interface COM

INV SHUTDOWN This input (pin 3) is enabled with a high signal (+5 V to +12 V with respect to pin 4 (0 V)) and when enabled, switches off the UPS after a mains failure has occurred. After the mains has been reestablished, the UPS starts again independent of this signal status. This input must be high for one (1) second before shut off will occur. AC FAIL This output provides an N/O (Normally Open) contact between pins 9 and 5, and an N/C (Normally Closed) contact between pins 8 and 5. the 9-5 contact closes when the mains voltage fails at the UPS input or when the mains voltage falls below the lower limit for a minimum of 10 seconds. This contact opens approximately 850 ms after the mains have been reestablished. The 8-5 contact provides a mirror function, opening when the mains voltage fails and closing when mains power returns. LOW BATT This output provides a N/O contact between pins 6 and 5 and an N/C contact between pins 7 and 5. The 6- 5 contact closes when the battery has been depleted to the point that it can only supply current for approximately three (3) more minutes at nominal load. The 7-5 contact provides a mirror function opening when the battery is low. BYPASS ACTIVE This output provides an N/O contact between pins 1 and 5. The 1-5 contact closes after switching to the bypass mode. In the bypass mode, energy to the output of the UPS is being supplied by the mains power and not through the inverter. SUM ALARM This output provides an N/O contact between pins 2 and 5. The 2-5 contact closes when one of the alarms “AC FAIL,” “LOW BATT” or “BYPASS ACTIVE” is active or when the indication “ALARM” at the front- panel is on.

19 Chapter 7 Maintenance (Active) The UPS does not require maintenance by the user. When the battery expires, the UPS or the battery must be replaced by qualified electrical personnel. The typical battery’s lifetime is 4 years at an ambient temperature of 25 °C. This may vary greatly depending upon load conditions, number of outages, and environmental factors. NOTE: Check periodically (6 to 12 months), to see whether the emergency supply time of the UPS is still sufficient for its application (See “Ready for Operation Check” on page 13.). 7.1 Storage For extended storage in moderate climates, the batteries should be charged for 8 hours every three months. Repeat it every two months in high temperature locations. 1. Connect the UPS to a grounded receptacle. 2. Pull out the mains plug after 8 hours. 3. Note the date of charging on the packing. 7.2 Cleaning CAUTION: Press the switch on the front panel and pull the plug out of the mains receptacle. Do not use scouring powder or plastic-dissolving solutions to clean the UPS. Do not allow liquid to get inside the UPS. Make sure that the air vents on the UPS are not obstructed. Clean the outside of the UPS housing by wiping with a dry or a slightly damp cloth.

In order to avoid RF, restrictions for installation or additional precautions may apply.

29 Chapter 12 Display and Operation Elements (E-Series) The Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) is connected between AC power and the load. It protects the load against mains disturbances, especially power failures. Its operation is based on the on-line principle. The connected load is supplied power through the UPS’s inverter. Power disturbances from the mains are suppressed which increases the loads’ operational security (PC, network server, multi-user systems etc.) In the event of a mains failure, maintenance-free batteries provide an uninterrupted supply of energy. In practice, mains failures are of relatively short duration, dependent on the mains quality. Therefore, the UPS’ energy is in most cases sufficient to ensure continuous operation of the connected systems, until the mains is reestablished. In the event of a longer lasting mains failure it allows for controlled shutdown of connected systems. The UPS indicates by acoustical (buzzer) and optical (LED) alarms that a mains failure has occurred and is still persistent. Battery runtimes vary depending upon load, number of batteries and environmental conditions. The following chart shows the approximate values of the emergency runtime (assuming fully charged battery at the onset of the mains failure.) Load in % E61 E101 E203 OVERLOAD >105 w/BPE101 95-105 9 min 9 min 15 min LOAD 75-95 10 min 10 min 20 min 55-75 13 min 13 min 25 min 35-55 21 min 21 min 45 min 1-35 40 min 40 min 90 min NOTE: *E-Series Model E203 does not contain internal batteries. • The actual battery capacity can be read from the LED-”battery” chain (see table below). Battery Capacity Battery 1 - 35% 35 - 55% 55 - 75% 75 - 95% 95 - 100% The most reliable method for determining actual battery runtime is the application of Chloride MopUPS® software. With this software, the prospective remaining battery capacity is indicated before and during an AC power failure. Furthermore, shutdown procedures can be automated. Depending on the application program, operating system and computer hardware, it can be ensured that in the event of a power failure the application programs are automatically closed, the subscribers logged in at the server are logged out, the data is stored and the operating systems are shut down. For further information please refer to our publication about the Chloride ManageUPS™NET SNMP Adapter. After return of the mains voltage, the UPS automatically initiates a restart. The connected systems are restarted according to their specifications. In the event of overload or internal failure, the load is supplied from the mains via an automatic bypass. As soon as the normal status is reestablished, automatic switchover to inverter operation is performed.

This operation manual contains all relevant information to install and operate the UPS. 12.1 Front The OVERLOAD indicator is on when the UPS is overloaded. The LED-chain LOAD indicates the load state of the UPS. The BYPASS indicator is on when the UPS supplies a voltage via the bypass. The INVERTER indicator is on when the inverter is in operation. The LED-chain BATTERY indicates the battery’s charge state (normal operation) or the % of battery time remaining when mains fail. The LINE indicator is on when there is mains voltage at the UPS input. The ALARM indicator is on when the UPS is faulty. Simulta- neously, an acoustical signal is given, which can be reset by pressing the BYPASS switch. The switch switches the inverter off and the bypass on. The UPS still has output voltage. Operating the switch | activates the inverter. After a delay of approximately 5 seconds the BYPASS indicator extinguishes and the INVERTER indicator illuminates. NOTE: To switch from BYPASS to INVERTER, press the | switch for at least 1 second. (A tone sounds confirming the switch).

37 13.2 Commissioning of the E-Series When connected to the mains, the batteries automatically begin charging. The UPS may be used immediately, however, full run time will not be available until the batteries are fully charged. 1. Before using the device, charge the batteries for 8 hours. 2. After charging, connect the loads to the UPS. NOTE: Do not connect any devices that overload the UPS or draw DC current from the UPS (e.g. hair dryers, vacuum cleaners). 3. When the signal interface is used, then the connection cable (accessories) is linked between UPS and computer system. Please see instructions in the documentation for the accessories. 4. Switch on the loads. 5. Switch on the UPS by operating the switch | on the front panel. The “LINE” and “BYPASS” indicators and the “LOAD” (output load) indicator are illuminated. After a few seconds the “INVERTER” indicator illuminates and the “BYPASS” indicator turns off. The UPS is now in ON-LINE operation. NOTE: If the “LOAD” indicator is beyond 100%, then too many devices are connected to the UPS. If only one device is connected to the UPS, then its energy demand exceeds the nominal rating of the UPS, which means that a UPS with a higher power rating has to be used. An overload alarm signal (1 signal per second) is heard. NOTE: The UPS devices may be commissioned even without being supplied by the grid. The batteries, however, should be charged sufficiently (see above). 13.3 Starting Up the E-Series NOTE: IF YOUR UPS WAS PURCHASED WITH A FACTORY START-UP SERVICE CONTACT CHLORIDE TECHNICAL SERVICES AT (800) 388-4234 OR (847) 990-3229 BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE START-UP OF THE UPS FOR THE FIRST TIME. NOTE: Confirm mains voltage is 208 VAC 1φ for E61 and E101 and 208/120 VAC 3φ for E203 1. Switch on the input circuit breaker on the back of the UPS. WARNING: As soon as the UPS is connected to the AC mains, the output receptacles are energized, even if the UPS is not yet switched on with the front-panel switch. The “LINE” and “BYPASS” LED indicators are illuminated. 2. When connected to the mains, the batteries automatically begin charging. The UPS may be used immediately, however, full run time will not be available until the batteries are fully charged 3. Before using the device, charge the batteries for 8 hours. 4. After battery charging is completed, switch on the output circuit breaker at the rear side of the UPS. The loads are now supplied by the UPS. NOTE: Do not connect any devices that overload the UPS or draw DC current from the UPS (e.g. hair

dryers, vacuum cleaners). 5. If a signal interface cable is used, connect the cable (accessory) between the UPS and the computer system. Please observe further instructions in the documentation for the accessory. 6. Switch on the loads. 7. Switch on the UPS by operating the switch | at the front plate. NOTE: If unit will not switch on, confirm that the batteries are properly connected to the unit and any battery breakers are “ON.” The “LINE” and “BYPASS” indicators and the “LOAD” (output load) indicator are illuminated. After a few seconds the “INVERTER” indicator illuminates and the “BYPASS” indicator turns off. The UPS is now in ON-LINE operation. NOTE: If the “LOAD” (output load) indicator is beyond 100%, then too many devices are connected to the UPS. If only one device is connected to the UPS, then its energy demand exceeds the nominal rating of the UPS, which means that a UPS with a higher power rating has to be used. An overload alarm signal (1 signal per second) is heard.

39 13.4 Commissioning of an External Battery Cabinet The following table shows the designations of the battery cabinets which are available for the UPS devices. Table 8. External Battery Packs Model Cabinet Batteries E61 (E41) BPE61 2x (20 x 7. 2 Ah) E101 (E81)/ E203 (E153) BPE101 1x (20 x 38 Ah) Disconnect the UPS from the mains and the loads from the UPS. CAUTION: Make sure that the circuit breaker on the external battery cabinet is in the OFF position. CAUTION: Battery cabinets are not interchangeable. Use ONLY the battery cabinet indicated above. Connect the battery cabinet types BP1000, BP3000 and BPE61 to the UPS using the supplied cable. The connection scheme is shown in the figures below. With type BPE101, make the hard-wired connection between UPS and the battery cabinet (see figures 28 and 29 on page 40). Switch the circuit breaker on the battery cabinet to the ON position.

41 Chapter 14 Operational Characteristics (E-Series) 14.1 Ready for Operation Check To check the emergency supply feature of the UPS, it must be disconnected from the mains. When correctly functioning with charged batteries, an acoustical signal in intervals of 4 seconds will be heard. The LED “LINE” (line voltage) indicator disappears. When the interval between the acoustical signals is reduced to 1 second, the UPS will supply energy for a maximum of 3 more minutes before it is automatically switched off. The load will be supplied from the batteries during the specified emergency supply period. If this is not so, then please check in chapter 17 “Troubleshooting (E-Series)” on page 48. Reconnect the UPS with the mains. The UPS is now again ready for normal operation. Please note, that the batteries have to be recharged before the complete emergency supply period is again available. 14.2 Self Test The self test is a LED test. With the UPS connected to the AC power, switch | has to be operated for at least 1 second. • Acknowledgment of the input is given by a single acoustical signal. • The elements of the LED “BATTERY” chain are illuminated according to the battery’s load status. The “LINE” and “BYPASS” indicators are illuminated. • Initially all elements of the LED “LOAD” chain are illuminated. Beginning with the top indicator, all elements of this chain will extinguish one after the other. Thereafter the elements are on according to the UPS load status. • The “BYPASS” indicator turns off after approximately 5 seconds and the “Inverter” indicator illuminates. The load is supplied through the inverter, the energy is taken from the mains.

14.3 Modes of Operation There are three modes of operation, when the UPS is switched on. 14.3.1 Normal Operation, Inverter On (Mains Available) Lights Illuminated Fig. 30: Front Display Panel During Normal Operations (Mains Available) The loads are supplied through the inverter, the energy is taken from the mains. 14.3.2 Battery Operation, Inverter On (Mains Failure) Lights Illuminated During Power Failure Fig. 31: Front Display Panel During Battery Operation (Mains Failure) In the event of a mains failure, the inverter continues to supply the loads uninterruptedly, the energy is taken from the battery. In this operation mode, an acoustical signal is given in intervals of approximately 4 seconds. When reaching the battery’s energy minimum, this signal is given every second.

43 14.3.3 Bypass Operation, Inverter OFF (Overload > 140%) Lights Illuminated in BYPASS Operation Fig. 32: Front Display Panel During Bypass Operation (Overload > 140%) In the event of large overload (> 140%) switch-over to bypass is initiated and the inverter is blocked. The energy is taken from the mains. This is not a normal operating status. In the event of mains failure the loads will no longer be supplied (no UPS operation).

Chapter 15 Description of the Interface (E-Series) The E-Series UPS has a standard interface COM A and an optional interface COM B. Protocol data transfer signal exchange is through COM A RS232 interface or the optional interface (COM B). These interfaces can be used for: • Direct communication between UPS and a computer. • Integration of the UPS as client into a network with centralized monitoring. • Transfer of operational states to external alarm systems. The necessary communication software packages and interface cables are available as accessories. 15.1 Standard Interface COM A The 9-pin SUB-D connector (pin contacts) contains the RS 232 signals, 5 output signals and 1 input signal. The RS232 signal RXD can also be used as input signal, when the sequential interface is not used. The 5 alarm outputs are open-collector outputs. Fig. 33: COM A signal Definition and Connection The interface COM A is galvanically separated from all other circuits.

Pin Number Condition SGN at pin 5 This connection point serves as a reference for all signals. RXD at pin 2 and TXD at pin 3 In conforms standard RS232 configuration. INV SHUTDOWN at pin 2 This input (pin 2: High signal +5V...+12V, > 1 second, pin 5: 0V) enables the control processor to switch off the UPS in the event of a mains failure. After the mains has been reestablished, the UPS starts again independent of this signal status. BATTERY LOW at pin 1 This output goes low, when the battery can supply current for approximately 3 more minutes at nominal load. AC FAIL at pin 9 and AC FAIL at pin 6 Pin 9 goes low and pin 6 goes high for mains voltage failure at the UPS input for a minimum of 10 seconds or when the mains voltage moves beyond the tolerance band. The signal is reset 850 ms after the mains have been reestablished. BYPASS ACTIVE at pin 7 This signal goes low after switching over to bypass, blocking the inverter and the energy being supplied by the mains SUM ALARM at pin 8 This output is low, when one of the alarms “BATTERY LOW”, “AC FAIL” or “BYPASS ACTIVE” is given. Chloride Active and E-Series UPS User Manual 45 15.2 Optional Interface COM B The optional interface COM can be equipped with various interface cards. The designation beside the plug then depends on the type of interface card. In the following the function of the interface signals for version COM B is described. The optional interface COM B provides potential-free signalling contacts and a shutdown input and an insulated auxiliary supply. Fig. 34: Simplified Schematic of Interface Connections

Troubleshooting Optional Interface COM INV SHUTDOWN This input (pin 3) is enabled with a high signal (+5 V to +12 V with respect to pin 4 (0 V)) and when enabled, switches off the UPS after a mains failure has occurred. After the mains has been reestablished, the UPS starts again independent of this signal status. This input must be high for one (1) second before shut off will occur. AC FAIL This output provides an N/O (Normally Open) contact between pins 9 and 5, and an N/C (Normally Closed) contact between pins 8 and 5. the 9-5 contact closes when the mains voltage fails at the UPS input or when the mains voltage falls below the lower limit for a minimum of 10 seconds. This contact opens approximately 850 ms after the mains have been reestablished. The 8-5 contact provides a mirror function, opening when the mains voltage fails and closing when mains power returns. LOW BATT This output provides a N/O contact between pins 6 and 5 and an N/C contact between pins 7 and 5. The 6- 5 contact closes when the battery has been depleted to the point that it can only supply current for approximately three (3) more minutes at nominal load. The 7-5 contact provides a mirror function opening when the battery is low. BYPASS ACTIVE This output provides an N/O contact between pins 1 and 5. The 1-5 contact closes after switching to the bypass mode. In the bypass mode, energy to the output of the UPS is being supplied by the mains power and not through the inverter. SUM ALARM This output provides an N/O contact between pins 2 and 5. The 2-5 contact closes when one of the alarms “AC FAIL,” “LOW BATT” or “BYPASS ACTIVE” is active or when the indication “ALARM” at the front- panel is on. 15.3 Emergency Power Off (EPO) (E-Series Models E153X and E203X only) The external connection to the EPO circuit is located next to the 9-pin SUB-D (interface com A) connector in the upper right of the back of the unit. If the circuit between the two EPO connector pins is “opened,” the output of the UPS is immediately switched off. To restart the UPS, the procedures outlined in section 13.3 on page 37 must be followed. The EPO circuit may be extended by connecting normally closed switches in series between the EPO connector pins. Activating (opening) any of the series switches will cause the UPS to shut off its output.

47 Chapter 16 Maintenance (E-Series) The UPS does not require maintenance by the user. When the battery expires, the UPS or the battery must be replaced by qualified electrical personnel. The typical battery’s lifetime is 4 years at an ambient temperature of 25 °C. This may vary greatly depending upon load conditions, number of outages, and environmental factors. NOTE: Check periodically (6 to 12 months), to see whether the emergency supply time of the UPS is still sufficient for its application (See “Ready for Operation Check” on page 41.). 16.1 Storage For extended storage in moderate climates, the batteries should be charged for 8 hours every three months. Repeat it every two months in high temperature locations. 1. Install the hard-wire connections according to chapter 13 “E-Series Installation and Commissioning” on page 33 at an appropriate source. Switch on the input circuit breaker at the rear of the device for hard- wired connection. 2. Switch off the input circuit breaker of the UPS. Then remove the connections of the UPS in an inverted sequence to what is described in chapter 13 “E-Series Installation and Commissioning” on page 33. 3. Note the date of charging on the packing. NOTE: Make sure all circuit breakers are turned off. 16.2 Cleaning NOTE: E-Series E61, E101 and E203: Press the switch on the front panel, switch off the input circuit breaker, isolate the source and secure it against reclosing. Do not use scouring powder or plastic-dissolving solutions to clean the UPS. Do not allow liquid to get inside the UPS. Make sure that the air vents on the UPS are not obstructed. Clean the outside of the UPS housing by wiping with a dry or a slightly damp cloth.
