2.3 Connecting the protected equipment

A Pulsar Evolution 1500 tower UPS has been used below to illustrate the instructions. The principle is the same for all the other tower and rack models.

Check that the indications on the rating plate on the back of the UPS correspond to your AC-power system and to the actual electrical consumption of all the equipment to be connected to the UPS.

 

1 - Remove the power cord supplying the

8

equipment to be protected.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2 - Connect the power cord (1) just removed

 

from the equipment to the AC-power socket

 

Ê Ê 8 , and then to the AC-power wall outlet.

 

3 - Connect the protected equipment to the

 

UPS using the two cords

20 .

 

 

 

Connect priority loads to the two standard

 

outlets Ê 5

and any non-priority loads to the

 

two programmable outlets

Ê Ê 6

(1 and 2).

 

If the UPS is connected to a

 

computer running MGE

 

 

2

communications software, it is

1

possible to program the

 

 

interruption of power to the

 

 

 

 

programmable outlets

6

during

 

operation on battery power, thus

6

reserving backup power for the

5

priority loads.

4 - Lock the connections using the securing

 

system 26

(for rack models only).

 

As soon as the UPS is energised, the battery begins charging. Eight hours are required to charge to the full rated backup time.

(1) Make sure the cord has the following characteristics: 250 V, 10 A, cross-sectional area 1Ê mm2, type HO5.
