3 3.1 Installation Introduction This chapter contains all the information necessary to enable you to correctly install the MINIpowerPLUS UPS, including unpacking, storage, positioning and cabling instructions. WARNING: The electrical installation of this UPS system and its peripheral equipment must be carried out by an authorised electrician or other suitably qualified personnel. Uninterruptible Power Supplies Ltd.
3: Installation 3.1.2 Site transportation When locally transporting the UPS equipment after it has been off loaded please observe the following cautions: CAUTION: If dropped, the weight of the UPS cabinet could cause serious injury to personnel or damage equipment in the surrounding area. Always handle with care. If the equipment is accidentally dropped do not connect it to the mains electricity supply. 3.1.
3: Installation period they should be recharged periodically to prevent them from losing their original capacity. As a guide, the batteries should not be stored for longer than the periods shown below without being recharged: • 6 months at 20°C • 3 months at 30°C • 2 months at 35°C CAUTION: Sealed batteries must never be stored in a discharged or partially discharged state. The batteries can be destroyed by extreme temperature, under-charge, overcharge or over-discharge! 3.
3: Installation 3.2.2 MINIpowerPLUS Rack-mounted versions Rack positioning and accessibility The MINIpowerPLUS Rack-mounted UPS cabinet is designed to fit into a standard 19 inch rack and is 6U high. The cabinet is fitted through the front of the rack, supported on suitable rails and secured in position by means of two screws on each side of the front of the assembly.

Battery Connectors Chassis Earth Stud UPS Cabinet Braided Earth Strap Battery Cabinet Figure 3.4 MINIpowerPLUS 10000 battery connections 1. Connect the flexible braided earth strap (provided) between the chassis earth studs of both cabinets – the studs are located adjacent to the battery connectors. 2. Connect all three battery cables between the battery connectors on both cabinets.
3: Installation Extended battery cabinet connections Additional battery cabinets can be connected to either of the above systems to further extend the available autonomy time. A A Standard cable Where an extended cabinet is used, the standard cabinet inter-connect cables are replaced by ‘splitter’ cables that can be effectively daisy chained to connect any number of cabinets together – as illustrated in Figure 3.6.
3: Installation 3.3.3 Connect the UPS input/output power cables The UPS input and output cables are fitted to a single power connector that plugs into a receptacle located on the rear UPS cabinet wall. A ready-made connector complete with cable is provided with the equipment. The supplied cable is approximately 600mm in length and terminated with an input plug and outlet socket suitable for the UPS capacity rating.
3: Installation MINIpowerPLUS 5000 power connector wiring CAUTION: Ensure the UPS input mains supply is isolated before proceeding. Never remove the 230 V power plug whilst the UPS is in operation as this would disconnect the earth protection of both the UPS and of the connected loads. Figure 3.

5 5.1 Maintenance Introduction WARNING: All the maintenance operations described in this chapter must be performed by an authorised electrician or other suitably qualified personnel. As the UPS contains no user-serviceable parts, the maintenance requirements to be carried out by the user are minimal beyond ensuring that the UPS operating environment remains suitably cool and dust-free. 5.

6 6.1 Troubleshooting Potential Problems and Solutions Problem Possible Solution When the UPS is switched on, the buzzer sounds and the red warning light makes alternating short-long flashes, then the UPS switches off after 15 seconds. The connection of the neutral conductor is incorrect: • Swap the connections of the neutral and phase input leads, or exclude the neutral sensor. The UPS works but a short beep is heard every 12 seconds and the yellow warning light is lit without flashing.
