Installation

1.2.1Storing for Delayed Installation

If the equipment will not be installed immediately, it must be stored indoors where the humidity is no higher than 90% and the temperature is no higher than 104°F (40°C). The storage area must protect the NX from excessive moisture (see 6.2 - UPS Environmental).

! CAUTION

If the UPS must remain disconnected from power for more than six (6) months, the battery must be recharged before use. To charge the batteries, the unit must be connected to utility power and started up—the charger operates only while the NX is operating.

! CAUTION

When batteries are installed in the UPS or are cabinet-mounted adjacent to the UPS unit, the battery—not the UPS—dictates the designed maximum ambient temperature.

1.3Preliminary Checks

1.3.1Identification

The equipment supplied has an identification tag on the back of the main door listing the type and size of the UPS.

1.4UPS Location

1.4.1Positioning the UPS

Choose a location for the UPS that offers:

Easy connection to inputs, outputs and auxiliary equipment

Enough space to service the UPS

Air circulation sufficient to expel heat produced by UPS

Protection against moisture and excessive humidity

Protection against dust and other particulate matter

Compliance with fire prevention regulations and practices

Operating environment temperature of 74-80°F (23-27°C) for maximum battery efficiency

1.4.2Environmental Considerations

Before installing the NX, verify that the UPS room satisfies the environmental conditions stipulated in 6.2 - UPS Environmental, paying particular attention to the ambient temperature and air exchange system.

The UPS unit should be installed in a cool, dry, clean-air environment with adequate ventilation to keep the ambient temperature within the specified operating range 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C).

For optimal UPS and battery system performance and service life, maintain the operating tempera- ture within the range of 74-80°F, (23-27°C).

The NX UPS cooled by internal fans. Cooling air enters the unit through the front of the unit and is exhausted out the top. To permit proper air flow and prevent overheating, do NOT block or cover the ventilation openings or blow air down onto the unit. Ventilation clearance above the unit must be a minimum of 24 in. (610mm).

See Table 9 for details on heat dissipation.

Battery Location

Temperature is a major factor in determining battery life and capacity. Battery manufacturers recom- mend an operating temperature of 77°F (25°C). Ambient temperatures warmer than this reduce bat- tery life; temperatures below this reduces battery capacity. In a typical installation, battery temperature should be maintained between 74°F and 80°F (23-27°C). Batteries should be placed where there are no main heat sources or air inlets to prevent portions of batteries from being either much warmer or much cooler than other parts of the batteries.

10-30kVA, 208V specifications

The Emerson 10-30 kVA, 208V uninterruptible power supply (UPS) solution is a robust system designed to provide reliable power protection for critical applications in commercial and industrial settings. This UPS is ideal for safeguarding IT equipment, communication systems, and other sensitive electronics against power disturbances and interruptions.

One of the standout features of the Emerson 10-30 kVA UPS is its modular design, allowing for flexibility and scalability. This means that as the power needs of a facility grow, the UPS can be easily expanded without requiring a complete system overhaul. This modularity contributes to a more efficient use of resources and minimizes operational costs.

The UPS also incorporates advanced technologies such as double-conversion online architecture, which provides the highest level of power quality. This technology ensures that the output power is consistently clean and stable, effectively eliminating harmful voltage fluctuations and frequency variations. Consequently, connected load receives a pure sine wave output, preventing potential damage or operational issues with sensitive equipment.

Another key feature is the high efficiency rating of the Emerson UPS, which exceeds 95 percent in typical operating conditions. This high efficiency translates to reduced energy costs and a smaller carbon footprint, aligning with modern sustainability goals. The cooling system is designed to be efficient as well, ensuring optimal performance while maintaining a compact footprint.

The user-friendly interface enhances operability, featuring an intuitive LCD display that allows for easy monitoring of critical power parameters. Users can access real-time data related to battery health, load levels, and operational status, which aids in effective management of the power supply.

Battery management is another critical aspect of the Emerson UPS. It employs advanced battery management technologies to ensure optimal battery life and performance. Features such as intelligent battery testing and monitoring help predict potential battery failures before they occur, allowing for proactive maintenance and minimized downtime.

In summary, the Emerson 10-30 kVA, 208V UPS offers a combination of modularity, high efficiency, advanced technologies, and effective power management features that cater to the demanding needs of critical applications. With its reliable performance and user-friendly operation, this UPS solution is an excellent choice for organizations looking to protect their valuable equipment from power disturbances.
