4 Mechanical installation The UPS and accessories are delivered on a specifically designed pallet that is easy to move with a forklift or a pallet jack. Keep the UPS always in upright position and do not drop the equipment. Do not stack the pallets. 4.1 Delivery check The UPS is delivered with the following items: 1. Winpower disc 2.RS-232 serial cable 3.User Guide 4.Key 5.Battery kit(wires & trays)(Only for model without batteries) 4.
EN Check the information on the type designation label of the equipment to verify that the unit is of the correct type. The type designation label includes ratings, a CE marking, a type code, a part number and a serial number. The serial number is important when making inquiries. It allows individual recognition of the equipment.
4.3 Planning before installation The equipment must be installed in upright position. The equipment requires space to front and back to enable cooling airflow. Service and maintenance require more than 500mm clearance on right hand side. All cooling air enters at front and exits at unit rear. The required minimum clearance from unit rear to an obstruction is 400mm. Because the service and user access is in the front there should be reserved enough space (min 800mm). Preparation for installation. 1.
4.4 Cabinet installation Note! EN Please use stabilizing devices to fix the UPS prior to the installation. The required distance for UPS units should allow for service access. The same applies to the battery cabinet(s) that should be installed next to the UPS cabinet(s). Caution! UPS cabinet(s) can fall over if the installation brake pads are not used. Both rear and front pads must be used to secure the UPS cabinet to the floor.
The switching sequence for circuit breaker from normal position to maintenance position: The normal positions of the MBS switches.
The maintenance positions of the MBS switches EN Transfer UPS from normal mode to maintenance bypass mode: 1.The normal start position should be following: 2.
1)Switch-off picture 2)If it is in single machine mode, the following will appear Remember to verify the transfer before proceeding the next step. 3.Remove the locking plate of maintenance switch. 4.Turn OFF the Rectifier Input switch and battery breaker. 5.Turn the Maintenance switch to “MAINTENANCE” side. 6.Turn OFF the Bypass Input switch and N switch.
7.UPS is now in the maintenance bypass mode, see below (Note: the Serv disconnect i.e. battery breaker must be turned off): EN Transfer UPS from maintenance bypass mode to normal mode: 1.The normal start position should be following: 2.Turn ON the Bypass Input switch and N switch When the LED of bypass turns green,the UPS enters into bypass mode. 3.Turn the Maintenance switch to “UPS” side.
Then the UPS turn to bypass mode. 4.Turn ON the Rectifier Input switch and battery breaker. 5.
6.UPS is now in the normal mode,see below: EN 7.Remount the locking plate of maintenance switch to the position to prevent the use of it.

EN 1.If UPS rectifier input and bypass input are supplied from two mains: Connect the mains 1 supply cables to the UPS rectifier input terminals L1, L2, L3, N and PE.
2.If UPS rectifier input and bypass input are supplied from one mains only: Connect the mains supply cables to the UPS rectifier input terminals L1, L2, L3, N and PE . The following three jumpers must be fixed between the rectifier and bypass input terminals: L1-L1, L2- L 2, L3- L3. Terminal block diagram Warning! High touch current earth connection essential 23 before connecting supply.
In order to gain access to the external electrical connections it is necessary to remove the front terminal protective panel of the UPS. Before the cables are connected they shall be passed through the cable glands to hold them in position and tightened. Connect the Protective Earthing (PE) cable first. Connect other cables as shown in the connection terminal representations on the preceding and following pages. Ensure that the UPS is isolated before removing front terminal protective panel. 5.
Routing of communication cables or data lines should be kept separate from the UPS input, output, and external battery cables. Use cable cross section and protective device specification Model VFI 30000TP 3/3 BE/BI VFI 40000TP 3/3 BE/BI Rectifier Input L1, L2, L3, N, Bypass Input L1, L2, L3, N, min. conductor cross section[mm ] max.
Notice!
