Getting Started

This section describes how to install the Powerware 9315 Maintenance Bypass Module (MBM). It contains instructions for installing the MBM and

basic site preparation procedures. Figure 2 shows the front and side view of the MBM with or without transformer for a Powerware 9315 30---160kVA module.

The MBM is shipped as a separate item. Use a forklift or pallet jack to move the packaged cabinet to the installation site, or as close as possible to the site, before unloading.

The basic sequence of the installation steps is:

1.Prepare the site for the MBM installation.

2.Inspect, unpack, and unload the MBM.

3.Create an installation plan for wiring the MBM to the UPS system.

4.Prepare for wiring.

5.Complete the installation checklist from the PowerwareR 9315 Installation manual.

6.Have authorized service personnel perform preliminary checks and startup.

NOTE: Startup and operational checks should be performed only by authorized service personnel. This service is usually offered as part of the sales contract for your UPS system.
