Electrical Connections

2.0ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

The UPS requires both power and control cabling once it has been mechanically installed. All control cables must run separate from power cables in metal conduits or metal ducts that are electrically bonded to the metalwork of the cabinets to which they are connected.

! WARNING

Before connecting input power to the NX, ensure that you are aware of the location and operation of the overcurrent protection devices that connect the UPS input/bypass supply to the power distribution panel.

De-energize and lockout or tagout all incoming high- and low-voltage power circuits before installing cables or making any electrical connections.

2.1Power Cabling

2.1.1Cable Rating

The main factors affecting the choice and size of cable are voltage, current (also taking into account overcurrent), room temperature and conditions of installation of the cable.

The power cables of the system must be sized with respect to the following description:

•UPS input cables - The UPS input cables must be sized for the maximum input current, includ- ing the maximum battery recharge current, given in Table 10, with respect to the unit rating and the input AC voltage.

•UPS bypass and output cables - The bypass and output cables must be sized for the nominal output current, given in Table 10, with respect to the unit rating and the output AC voltage.

•Battery cables - Each UPS unit has its own internal batteries factory-wired. If connecting an external battery cabinet, the battery cables must be sized for the battery discharge current at the end-of-discharge voltage, as given in Table 10, with respect to the unit rating.

NOTE

Table 10 gives nominal currents for determining the size of UPS power cables. Other important factors to consider include cable route length and coordination with protective devices.

The power cables can be sized to suit the UPS unit rating according to Table 10.

10-30kVA 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.
