Liebert® BDC

7.1.1Bypass Mode

When the Liebert BDC is in Bypass mode, it provides an alternate path for power to the connected equipment. Should the UPS need to be taken out of service for limited maintenance or repair, manual activation of the bypass will cause an immediate transfer of the equipment from the UPS inverter to the bypass source. In this mode, power will still be supplied to the UPS; however, the load is NOT protected by the UPS.

7.2Maintenance Mode

When the Liebert BDC is in Maintenance mode (MBB closed; BIB/MIB open), it provides an alternate path for power to the connected equipment should the UPS need to be taken out of service for limited maintenance or repair. In this mode of operation, no power is supplied to the UPS and the load is NOT protected by the UPS.

7.3Locating the Cabinet

This Liebert BDC may be mounted to the left of the UPS or installed as a stand-alone unit. In either case, ensure that the unit is in a well-ventilated area and that there is clearance for access to the switches and cable connections as required by national and local codes.

NOTE

Transient and steady state earth leakage currents may occur when starting the equipment. This should be taken into account when selecting ground current detection devices because these will carry the earth leakage currents of both the UPS equipment and the load.
