Maintenance

Maintenance should be scheduled on a periodic basis, recommended not to exceed one year. More frequent intervals are recommended if the equipment is subjected to highly repetitive operations.

CAUTION:

Refer to Section 9 -- Maintaining the UPS System of the Powerware 9315

30-- 160kVA Operation manual, Powerware part number 164200252, before beginning maintenance or repairs on the UPS equipment.

WARNING:

Dangerous and life-threatening voltages are present when the UPS is operating. De-energize all equipment before physically touching potentially live parts.

Periodic inspections of the maintenance bypass module should be made to determine if components, wiring, and connections exhibit evidence of overheating. Particular attention should be given to bolted connections. Maintenance procedures should specify that the bolted connections be retorqued to values listed on labels posted on the equipment.

CAUTION:

Overtightening of bolted connections containing compression washers decreases the washer’s ability to maintain compression during heating and cooling cycles.

Refer to circuit breaker manufacturer’s application and maintenance literature for recommended maintenance practices and procedures.

Short Circuits

Short circuits are not considered normal phenomena in UPS applications. Tripping of protective devices due to low impedance short circuits should be thoroughly investigated for damage to conductors, insulation, and the protective devices in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
