Installation

UPS with PPDM Startup

To start up the UPS:

1.Verify the PPDM input breaker is in the OFF (O) position (see Figure 13 on page 39).

2.Confirm the correct UPS output voltage is selected (see Step 4 on page 41).

3.Turn on the equipment that is connected to the UPS.

4.Confirm the Bypass switch on the PPDM rear panel is in the NORMAL position (see Figure 13 on page 39).

5.If your PPDM is a hardwired unit, supply utility power to the UPS and skip to Step 8.

6.If your PPDM is a plug/receptacle unit, plug the input power supply cord into the utility input receptacle on the PPDM rear panel.

7.Plug the other end of the power supply cord into a grounded, three-wire, AC receptacle that has been wired in accordance with NEC specifications or national wiring rules. See Chapter 6, “Specifications” on page 69 for the input current/output voltage requirements.

8.Switch the circuit breaker to the ON ( ) position (see

Figure 14 on page 40) on each battery cabinet connected to the PPU.

Each battery cabinet performs a self-test and then enters normal operation. The battery cabinet startup should take about three seconds.

9.For plug/receptacle units, verify that the circuit protectors for output receptacles are in the ON position (pushed in).

10.Switch the PPU input breaker to the ON ( ) position (see Figure 14 on page 40).

11.Switch the PPDM input breaker to the ON ( ) position (see Figure 13 on page 39).

The UPS performs diagnostic tests and enters Normal mode with the equipment (load) offline. The µindicator remains lit. The startup should take about 15 seconds.
