7 Preventive Maintenance
7.1 Safety Overview
Hazardous voltages and currents are present in this equipment! Hazardous energy is stored and will still be present even when the equipment is turned off and removed from power mains!
Personal protective equipment is required when working on this equipment. This includes safety glasses, insulated gloves, and insulating blankets to prevent shorts or accidental contact with live circuits.
LOTO
Insulated tools are required for service inside power modules or battery cabinets when working hot.
Use a voltmeter to verify that voltage has been removed before servicing any module.
Use a voltmeter to determine that voltages and polarities are correct before
If you are working with someone else, be certain that you know what the other person is doing at all times AND that the other person knows what you are doing!
7.2Suggested tools and supplies
•Insulated tools:
Torque wrench Socket set, ratchet Screwdrivers (Philips and common) Magnetic Philips screw driver
Diagonal wire cutters
•
•Digital
•
•
•TIF tester (for battery module)
•Small soldering iron and
•Insulated gloves
•ESD protective equipment (grounded pad, wrist strap)
•Insulating blanket
•Electrical tape
•Heat sink thermal compound
•Plastic ties
7.3UPS Procedure
7.3.1
Check the LCD display and the LED panel for status and alarms. If the unit is operating normally and no alarms are present, or if the unit has an active alarm, download the event log and failure power module identify (Please refer to chapter 3 and chapter 6 of “owner’s manual”).
7.3.2
Remove the rear, side, top and front covers. Perform an infrared scan on input and bypass breakers, cables and wire connections (terminal blocks, internal connect, etc.), and other assemblies. What are we looking for? What temperature limits can not be exceeded?
7.3.3
Visually inspect cables for signs of overheated or damaged insulation. Visually inspect modules for damage and inspect bypass STS snubbers for damage.
7.3.4
Measure Ø to Ø and Ø to Neutral main input voltage, bypass input voltage and enter those on the form. Note that phases R, S, T correspond to A, B, C on the form. Compare the meter readings with the LCD display readings. If the voltage readings are correct within +/- 1%, check input metering OK on the form. If there is a greater discrepancy, enter that in NOTES. Then what do we do? Is there a troubleshooting tree to reference in the service manual?
