Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of a Powerware 9315 Uninterruptible Power Supply! The Powerware 9315 online power protection can be utilized to prevent loss of valuable electronic information, minimize equipment downtime, and/or minimize the adverse effect on equipment production due to unexpected power problems.
For More Information This manual describes how your UPS system works. For more information about your system, refer to the following: 164201037 Powerware 9315 (200 kVA ---300 kVA) UPS Installation This manual contains the following information: · How to prepare your site and plan for installation · Detailed step-by-step procedures for installing each component of your system · Detailed illustrations of cabinets and optional accessories, including dimensions and connection points.
Getting Started Each component of the UPS system is housed in a free-standing cabinet designed for industrial or computer room applications. The cabinets match in style and color, and have safety shields behind the doors for hazardous voltage protection. Figure 1 shows a typical Powerware 9315 UPS system. UPS CABINET BATTERY CABINET (optional) INPUT CABINET OUTPUT TRANSFORMER (optional) PDM CABINET (optional --requires 480/208 transformer) Figure 1.
Looking Inside the UPS The Powerware 9315 is a continuous duty, solid-state UPS that supports the following equipment: process control, data processing, telecommunications/PBX, research, and medical. The Powerware 9315 maintains power to the critical loads during commercial electrical power brownout, blackout, overvoltage, undervoltage, and out-of-tolerance frequency conditions. In this manual, the power required by your equipment is called the critical load.
UPS Standard Features The UPS has many standard features that provide cost-effective and consistently reliable power protection: Monitor Panel The Monitor Panel on the front of the UPS contains an LCD screen to display the current status of the UPS. You can view a statistical history and log of UPS events and display a real-time graphic representation of power flowing through the UPS components. Backlit status indicators show the operating mode of the UPS and alert you to system events.
Installation Features Power wiring can be routed through the top or bottom of each UPS cabinet. External sensing and monitoring control wire must be installed in accordance with Class 2 wiring methods. Bottom entry is provided for Class 2 wiring.
Output Transformer An optional 480/208 VAC output auto transformer provides a 208 VAC output for applications that require 208 VAC. The transformer is contained in a separate cabinet. Modem An optional modem is available for use with the UPS Remote Notification feature described in Chapter 8, “Remote Notification”. Refer to the manual supplied with the modem for modem operating instructions. Customer Convenience Outlet An uninterruptible 120VAC, 0.
Symbols, Controls, and Indicators These symbols may appear on your UPS system or on labels inside the UPS. They are accepted by most international safety agents. Everyone in your organization who works with your UPS should understand the meaning of these symbols: ON The principal power switch is in the “On” position. OFF The principal power switch is in the “Off” position. PHASE The word “phase.” CAUTION: REFER TO MANUAL Stop and refer to the Operator’s Manual for more information.
Understanding UPS Operation Your UPS functions automatically to supply AC electrical power to your critical load. The UPS always operates in one of three modes: · In Normal mode, the critical load is supplied by the inverter, which derives its power from rectified utility AC power. In this mode, the rectifier also provides charging current for the battery. · In Battery mode, the battery cabinet provides DC power, which maintains inverter operation. The battery supports the critical load.
Normal Mode In Normal mode, utility AC power is supplied to the rectifier. The rectifier supplies DC power to the inverter, which then supplies the critical load with AC power. The rectifier also provides charging power to the battery. The battery charge condition is monitored by the UPS and reported by a status indicator on the Monitor Panel. The message “System Normal” appears in the status area of the LCD screen.
Bypass Mode The UPS automatically switches to Bypass mode if it detects an overload, load fault, or internal failure. The bypass source supplies the commercial AC power to the load directly. CAUTION: The critical load is not protected while the UPS is in Bypass mode. Figure 4 shows the path of electrical power through the UPS system when the UPS is operating in Bypass mode.
Battery Mode The UPS transfers to Battery mode automatically if a utility power outage occurs, or if the utility power does not conform to specified parameters. In Battery mode, the battery provides emergency DC power that the inverter converts to AC power. When the UPS switches to Battery mode, the alarm indications depend on the cause and condition of the battery charge. The length of time the system can operate in Battery mode depends on loading and the battery supply capacity.
Monitoring and Controlling UPS Operation After you start the UPS, no operator intervention is necessary except for periodic checks of the UPS status. Manual operation is required only during routine maintenance or service. Use the Monitor Panel and the Control Panel to monitor and control the UPS. Figure 6 shows the location of these two panels on the front of the UPS. CONTROL PANEL MONITOR PANEL Figure 6.

Starting and Stopping the UPS This chapter describes how to use the Control Panel to start and stop the UPS. NOTE: Before starting the UPS, ensure all installation tasks are complete and a preliminary startup has been performed by authorized service personnel. The preliminary startup verifies all electrical interconnections to ensure the installation was successful and the UPS system operates properly. Using the Control Panel The Control Panel (see Figure 7) is inside the right door of the UPS cabinet.
The following describes the switches on the Control Panel (see Figure 7): · The MODE switch is a two-position rotary switch that controls the manual transfer of the UPS to and from Bypass mode. The MODE switch is used to: --- Place the critical load in Bypass mode when the UPS is operating in Normal mode and the bypass source is within acceptable limits. If the transfer does not occur within 2 seconds, an alarm sounds. --- Prevent transfer to Normal mode when the UPS is in Bypass mode.
To Shut Down the UPS from Normal Mode: 1. Turn the MODE switch to BYPASS. The UPS switches to Bypass mode. If the bypass source is not available, the power processor remains on and an alarm sounds. 2. When the transfer is complete (the LCD screen reads “On Bypass”), move the CB1 switch to OFF. The bypass source supplies the critical load and the power processor de-energizes. The Bypass mode indicator illuminates on the Monitor Panel.

Responding to System Events When the UPS system is running in Normal mode, it continually monitors itself and the incoming utility power. In Battery or Bypass modes, the UPS may issue alarms to let you know exactly what event caused the change from Normal mode. System events can be indicated by horns, lights on the UPS, or both. Select Active from the Events menu on the LCD screen to look at the Active System Events screen. This screen shows any currently active alarms, notices, or commands.
System Event Messages When a system event occurs, a message is added to the Event History Log. A message may also appear on the Monitor Panel of the UPS. The Event History Log contains all system event messages, whether or not they were displayed on the Monitor Panel.
