4.1Load Bus Synchronization

The Load Bus Synchronizer (LBS) keeps the output of two independent UPS systems or parallel UPS systems in synchronization even when the systems are operating in different modes and even when either or both systems are operating on batteries. When the LBS is used, one UPS system is desig- nated as master, the other as slave.

The LBS option is typically used with dual-corded equipment or with either the Liebert SmartSwitch or Static Transfer Switch (STS) for single-corded equipment.

4.1.1Performance Requirements

The LBS operates under the following conditions:

•Both master and slave are on inverter

(either system may be on inverter through the rectifier or on inverter through the batteries)

•Master on inverter and slave on bypass

•Master on bypass and slave on inverter

•Master and slave on bypass IF the bypass source is the same for both systems

4.1.2LBS Cable and Settings

For Liebert NX-to-Liebert NX dual bus configuration, only one optional LBS cable is required, the built-in LBS will operate normally without an extra LBS control box or interface box. The LBS port is X4 on the parallel board (M3). The parallel board is on the interior of the Liebert NX, above and left of the power electronics; see Figure 23.

An optional, 9-pin LBS cable is used to connect two UPS systems through each system’s DB9 port on its parallel board. For two parallel systems, the LBS cable can be mounted between any two units belonging to different parallel systems. For information about the LBS kit or to order the optional equipment, see your local Liebert representative.

The LBS cable is connected as illustrated in Figures 14 and 15.

480V specifications

The Emerson 480V power systems play a critical role in modern industrial applications, providing reliable and efficient power distribution. These systems are designed for facilities that require robust performance and operational efficiency while adhering to safety regulations. With voltage ratings at 480V, they cater primarily to industries such as manufacturing, data centers, and commercial buildings.

One of the main features of the Emerson 480V systems is their scalability. These systems can be easily adapted and expanded as operational demands grow, thereby reducing initial investment costs and providing a flexible solution for evolving business needs. This ability to scale is crucial in a fast-paced environment where demands can change rapidly.

The Emerson 480V systems also incorporate advanced technologies for improved performance and safety. One key technology is the use of smart grid solutions. This enables real-time monitoring, diagnostics, and control, allowing facility managers to optimize energy consumption and reduce operational costs. Furthermore, these systems often include integrated protection devices that enhance safety measures by minimizing the risk of electrical faults, overloads, or short circuits.

Energy efficiency is another characteristic that distinguishes Emerson 480V systems from traditional alternatives. With advanced power management features, these systems effectively reduce energy waste and lower electricity bills. Emerson’s commitment to sustainability is evident in its designs, which aim to minimize environmental impact through energy-efficient technologies.

The build quality of Emerson 480V systems is also noteworthy. They are designed to withstand harsh industrial environments and are constructed with high-grade materials that promote longevity and reliability. The modular design allows for easy maintenance and repair, which further extends the lifespan of the system.

Additionally, Emerson 480V systems are equipped with user-friendly interfaces that facilitate ease of operation. This ensures that operators can efficiently manage and control power distribution without extensive training. The combination of performance, scalability, safety features, and user-centric design makes Emerson 480V systems an ideal choice for businesses looking to enhance their electrical infrastructure.

In summary, Emerson 480V power systems are a leading solution for industrial power distribution, characterized by their scalability, smart technology integration, energy efficiency, robust build quality, and user-friendly operation. These attributes make them a valuable investment for any organization aiming to improve its electrical management and operational performance.
