Figure 3: Terminal block wiring diagram

1. The output of the UPS may be energized even if the UPS is turned off. To ensure that the UPS has no power in the output, power off the UPS, and cut off the mains power supply. Wait the UPS shut down completely.
2. Open the terminal block cover located on the rear panel of UPS (refer to diagram on Section 2.3.1).
3. Do not use the wall jack because its rated current is higher than the UPS maximum input current.
4. Install the protective earth (ground) wire (refer to Figure 3). It is recommended to use green or green/yellow wires.
5. Connect the input and output wires to the corresponding terminals Use appropriate tools and terminal splices to guarantee a reliable contact between the wires and the terminal blocks.
   • Note:
   • If the UPS is single in a system, JP1 and JP2 must be connected.
   • If the UPS is used in parallel, the jumper between JP1 and JP2 must be removed.
   • The battery connectors are only used for the UPS using external batteries
6. Install an output breaker between the output terminal of the UPS and the load. It is recommended to use a breaker with leakage current protection.
7. Turn off all the loads. Then connect the load to the UPS and finally turn on the loads one by one.
8. After completing the steps above, check that all wires are connected correctly and tightly.
9. Turn On the mains power switch and turn the input breaker to the On position. The UPS will charge the batteries automatically. The UPS can be immediately used in inverter mode but it is recommended to charge the batteries completely to guarantee the maximum back up time.

Note: The power consumption in the start-up of inductive loads (such as monitors and laser printers) is very high. If such loads are connected to the UPS, the start-up power consumed by these devices should be considered when calculating the capacity of the UPS. If this is not taken into consideration, the UPS goes often in overload and may turn off easily depending on its dimensioning.

Battery Connections (Model without internal batteries)

WARNING! ANY INCOMPLIANCE MAY RESULT IN THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS THE UPS CONTAINS HIGH DC VOLTAGES. A QUALIFIED PERSON MUST DO THE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE UPS AND THE EXTERNAL BATTERIES.

The nominal DC voltage of external battery pack is 240VDC. Each battery pack consists of 20 pieces of 12V maintenance free batteries in series. To achieve longer backup time, it is possible to connect several battery packs, but the principle of “same voltage, same type” should be strictly followed. The external battery pack must be independent for each UPS. Two or more UPS cannot use the same external battery pack. Follow the steps below to connect the battery packs.

1. Ensure the UPS is not powered on and the mains input breaker is set in the “OFF” position.
2. A DC breaker must be installed between the external battery pack and the UPS. The capacity of breaker must be higher than specified in the general specification.
3. With the external battery pack breaker in “OFF” position, connect the 20 batteries in series.
4. Connect the external battery pack to the battery terminals. Check the polarity if the connection is correct.
5. Turn the breaker of the battery pack to the “ON” position. The UPS will power on and start to charge the battery pack.

Emergency Power Off (EPO)

The EPO connector gives the user the possibility to block the output of the UPS in case of an emergency. This connector can be configured as Normally Closed (NC) of Normally Opened (NO) through the USD or RS232 port. As a default the EPO is Normally Closed (NO) by a jumper in the rear panel. If the jumper is removed, the UPS output will not supply energy to the load until the EPO status is again modified.

To recover to normal status, the EPO connector should first be closed. Then, enter the LCD menu (refer to Section 0) to clear the EPO status. The UPS alarm will stop and the bypass mode will be recovered. To have the UPS in inverter mode, the selection has to be made by manual operation. The polarity of connector could be inversed by setting in LCD menu as from section 0. Contact your local supplier for further information before modifying the settings.

MAINTENANCE

PowerValue 11 (6-10 kVA) UPS only requires minimal maintenance. The only requirement is to charge the UPS regularly in order to maximize the expected life of the battery. When being connected to the mains power, whether the UPS is turned on or not, the UPS keeps charging the batteries and also offers the protective function of overcharging and over-discharging.

WARNING! BATTERY REPLACEMENT SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL

• If the battery service life (3~5 years at 25°C ambient temperature) has been exceeded, the batteries must be replaced. In this case please contact your dealer.
• The UPS should be charged once every 4 to 6 months if it has not been used for a long time.
• In high temperature regions, the battery should be charged and discharged every 2 months. The standard charging time should be of at least 12 hours.
• Under normal conditions, the battery life lasts 3 to 5 years. In case the battery is not in good conditions, earlier replacement should be made.
• Replace batteries with the same number and same type of batteries.
• Do not replace the batteries individually. All the batteries should be replaced at the same time following the instructions of the battery supplier.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Fault identification and rectification
If the UPS system does not operate correctly, please attempt to solve the problem using the table below. If the problem still persists, consult your supplier supplier.

switch status
IP soft start failed| UPS internal fault| Consult your supplier.

Battery Disconnect| Battery pack is not connected correctly| Do the battery test to confirm.

Check the battery bank is connected to the UPS. Check the battery breaker is turned on.

Battery low| Battery voltage is low| If audible alarm sounds every second, the battery is

almost empty.

Output Overload| Overload| Check the loads and remove some non-critical loads.

Check if some loads have failures.

Fan Failure| Fan abnormal| Check if the fan is running normally.
Charger Fail| The charge fails| Consult your supplier.
Battery Over Voltage| Battery voltage is higher than normal value| Check if the battery quantity is correct.
Over Charge| Battery is over charged| The UPS will turn off the charger until the battery voltage is normal
Model Pin Error| UPS internal fault| Consult your supplier.
Ambient Over Temperature| The ambient temperature is too high| Check the environment ventilation.
Heat sink Over Temperature| Inside temperature of UPS is too high| Check the ventilation of UPS and the ambient temperature.
Ambient NTC abnormal| UPS internal fault| Consult your supplier.
Para Cable Male Loss| The parallel cable is disconnected| Check the parallel cable.
Para Cable Female Loss| The parallel cable is disconnected| Check the parallel cable.
Para Bat Differ| The battery packs of some UPSs are disconnected| Check if all the battery packs are connected.
Para Line Differ| The mains input of some UPSs is disconnected| Check the building wiring and input cable. Check if the input breaker is closed.

Ensure the UPS are connected to the same input

source.

Para Work Mode Differ| UPS are configured with different

power settings (Ex. one in Online mode and one in Converter mode).

| Modify the settings of the UPS. All UPS should be running in the same mode
Para Rate Power Differ| There are different UPS in a parallel system| UPS with different capacity (Ex. one 6kVA and one 10kVA) cannot be paralleled.
ECO In Para| ECO mode is enabled in a parallel

system

| Eco mode cannot be used in a parallel system.
IP Fuse Open| Input fuse break is opened| Check the input fuse status
Problem Displayed| Possible cause| Remedy
---|---|---
Inv Overload Fault| Overload| Check the loads and remove non-critical loads. Check if there are failures in the load.
Byp Overload Fault| Overload| Check the loads and remove non-critical loads. Check if there are failures in the load.
Output Short Circuit| Output short circuit| Remove all loads. Turn off the UPS.

Check if the UPS output and loads are short circuited. Ensure short circuit is removed

before turning on the UPS again.

Heat sink Over Temperature Fault| Inside temperature of UPS is too high| Check the ventilation of UPS and the ambient temperature.
Bus Over Voltage| UPS internal fault| Consult your supplier.
Bus Under Voltage| UPS internal fault| Consult your supplier.
Bus Unbalance| UPS internal fault| Consult your supplier.
Bus short| UPS internal fault| Consult your supplier.
