Introduction

The Eaton® Powerware® 9390 UPS Sidecar is designed for use with the Powerware 9390 80 kVA 208/208V and 480/480V and 160 kVA 480/480V three-phase uninterruptible power systems (UPSs). The UPS Sidecar provides maintenance bypass or tie cabinet functions with the following custom configurable features, enabling adaptation and expansion without costly electrical rework:

SMaintenance Bypass Configuration – Maintenance Bypass (MBP) and Maintenance Isolation (MIS) breakers enable power to completely bypass the UPS power module. The UPS module can then be safely serviced or replaced, without interrupting power to critical systems. An optional Bypass Input Breaker (BIB) and Rectifier Input Breaker (RIB) provide a single wiring point input to the UPS and a convenient method for removing power from the UPS when using the maintenance bypass to supply the load.

SParallel Redundant Configuration – Module Output Breakers (MOBs) 1 and 2 enable two UPS modules to be paralleled together for redundancy. An optional System Load Breaker (SLB) provides output control to the critical load for the whole system.

The UPS Sidecar is attached to and directly integrated with the UPS cabinet and has safety shields behind the removable front panel for hazardous voltage protection. The UPS Sidecar matches the UPS cabinet in style and color. Figure 1-1 shows the Powerware 9390 UPS (40–80 kVA) with the UPS Sidecar and Figure 1-2 shows the Powerware 9390 UPS (100–160 kVA) with the UPS Sidecar.
