Electrical Connections

2.1.5Safety Ground

The safety ground busbar is located below the neutral input and output busbars as shown in Figure 5 below. The safety ground cable must be connected to the ground busbar and bonded to each cabinet in the system.

All cabinets and cable conduit should be grounded in accordance with local regulations.

! WARNING

Failure to follow proper grounding procedures can result in electric shock hazard to personnel or the risk of fire, should a ground fault occur.

NOTE

Proper grounding significantly reduces problems in systems caused by electromagnetic interference.

NOTE

The ground and neutral busbars are easily accessible when the left protective cover plate is removed. Cable connections should be made before a cabinet is attached to the left side of the NX or before the UPS is placed where another obstruction, such as a wall, is against the NX’s the left side.

2.1.6Protective Devices

For safety, it is necessary to install circuit breakers in the input AC supply and external battery bat- tery cabinets, external to the UPS system. Given that every installation has its own characteristics, this section provides guidelines for qualified installation engineers with knowledge of operating prac- tices, regulatory standards and the equipment to be installed.

UPS Rectifier and Bypass Input Supply

Protection from excessive overcurrents and short circuits in power supply input

External overcurrent protection for the AC output circuit is to be provided. See 6.4 - UPS Elec- trical Characteristics and Table 12 for overload capacity.

High-speed fuses and SCRs are used for internal battery circuit overcurrent protection. When an external battery supply is used, overcurrent protection for the battery circuit is to be provided by the customer.

Dual Input

When wiring the UPS with dual inputs, the Rectifier input and the Bypass input must be pro- tected separately. Size the breakers according to the input currents shown in Table 10.

System Output

When using an external distribution panel for load distribution, the output neutral and input neutral must be separated at the input to the UPS.

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.
