Maintaining the Parallel

Capacity/Redundant System

15.1General

You must schedule periodic performance checks of your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system to keep it running properly. Regular routine checks of operation and system parameters will enable your system to function efficiently for many trouble-free years.

NOTE: Refer to the applicable Powerware9315 Operation manual provided with the UPS for UPS maintenance.

15.2Important Safety Instructions

Remember that your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system is designed to supply power EVEN WHEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE UTILITY POWER. The UPS module interiors are unsafe until the DC power source is disconnected and the electrolytic capacitors are discharged. The SSBM is unsafe until the UPS modules have been powered down and bypass power has been removed. After disconnecting the utility power and the DC power, authorized service personnel should wait at least 5 minutes before attempting internal access to the UPS module.

WARNING:

Servicing and maintenance should be performed by qualified service personnel only.

WARNING: LETHAL VOLTAGE PRESENT.

This unit should not be operated with the cabinet doors open or protective

panels removed. Do not make any assumptions about the electrical state of any

cabinet in the UPS system.

Since each battery rack is an energy source in itself, opening the Battery Circuit Breaker does not de-energize the voltage within the battery rack. DO NOT

ATTEMPT TO ACCESS ANY INTERNAL AREA OF THE BATTERY RACK YOURSELF. VOLTAGES ARE ALWAYS PRESENT IN THE BATTERY RACK. If you suspect that a battery rack needs service, you should contact your local Powerware field service office.

If the rack requires service, refer to the battery rack manufacturer’s operating manual for instructions on battery rack maintenance, or contact your local Powerware field service office.
