System Description

2.5DC-to-DC Converter

The DC-to-DC converter utilizes energy from the battery system and raises the DC voltage to the optimum operating voltage for the inverter. This allows the inverter to operate continuously at its optimum efficiency and voltage, thus increasing reliability.

2.6Battery

The Liebert GXT3 utilizes valve-regulated, nonspillable, lead acid batteries. To maintain battery design life, operate the UPS in an ambient temperature of 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). Optional external battery cabinets are available to extend battery run times. For run times, see Table 11.

2.7Dynamic Bypass

The Liebert GXT3 provides an alternate path for mains power to the connected load in the unlikely event of a UPS malfunction. Should the UPS have an overload, overtemperature or any other UPS failure condition, the UPS automatically transfers the connected load to bypass. Bypass operation is indicated by an audible alarm and illuminated amber Bypass LED (other LEDs may be illuminated to indicate the diagnosed problem). To manually transfer the connected load from the inverter to bypass, press the Standby/Manual Bypass button once and hold it for about 2 seconds.

NOTE

The bypass power path does NOT protect the connected equipment from disturbances in the mains supply.
