Personnel Safety
⚫ RISK OF VOLTAGE BACKFEED. This system has its own power source (the
battery). Isolate the UPS and check for hazardous voltage upstream and
downstream during lockout-tagout operation. Terminal blocks may be
energized even if the system is disconnected from the AC power source.
⚫ Dangerous voltage levels are present within the system. It should be opened
exclusively by qualified service personnel.
⚫ High leakage current, earth connection is essential before connecting to the
supply.
⚫ The battery supplied with the system contains small amounts of toxic
materials. To avoid accidents, the directives listed below must be adhered to:
- Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnels
knowledgeable about batteries and the required precautions taken.
- When replacing batteries, replace with the same type and number of
batteries or battery packs.
- Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
- Batteries constitute a hazard (electrical shock, burns). The short-circuit
current may be very high.
⚫ Precautions must be taken for all handling:
- Wear rubber gloves and boots.
- Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
- Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery
terminals.
- Determine if battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded,
remove source from ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery
can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock can be reduced
if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance
(applicable to equipment and remote battery supplies not having a
grounded supply circuit).
Product Safety
⚫ The UPS connection instructions and operation described in the manual must
be followed in the indicated order.
⚫ The upstream circuit breaker for Normal AC / Bypass AC must be easily
accessible. The unit can be disconnected from AC power source by opening
this circuit breaker.
⚫ An additional AC contactor is used for backfeed protection and must comply
with IEC/EN 62040-1 (the creep age and clearance distances shall meet the
3
basic insulation requirements for pollution degree 2).
⚫ Disconnection and overcurrent protection devices shall be provided by others
for permanently connected AC input (Normal AC / Bypass AC) and AC output
circuits.
⚫ Check that the indications on the rating plate correspond to your AC powered
system and to the actual electrical consumption of all the equipment to be
connected to the system.
⚫ For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet shall be installed near the
equipment and shall be easily accessible
⚫ Never install the system near liquids or in an excessively damp environment.
⚫ Never let a foreign body penetrate inside the system.
Special precautions
⚫ The unit is heavy: wear safety shoes and use vacuum lifter preferentially for
handling operations.
⚫ All handling operations will require at least two people (unpacking, lifting,
installation in rack system).
⚫ Straps are provided only for unpacking the unit manually from the carton;
don’t use the straps to carry the unit around. The unit may slip from the
straps during handling (risk of injury and product damage):
- keep 12” / 30cm minimum distance between the straps
- lift the unit carefully and keep it at a low height
- keep the unit horizontal during unpacking.
⚫ Before and after the installation, if the UPS remains de-energized for a long
period of time, the UPS must be energized for a period of 24 hours, at least
once every 6 months (for a normal storage temperature less than 25°C). This
charge the batteries, thus avoiding possible irreversible damage.
⚫ During the replacement of the Battery Module, it is imperative to use the same
type and number of elements as the original Battery Module provided with
the UPS to maintain an identical level of performance and safety.

Modbus/BMS port and DIP switch
The Modbus/BMS port supports Modbus connectivity, or BMS communication for
Lithium Ion battery monitoring.
The port defaults to Modbus the function, which can provide communication with a
maximum of 5 UPS. For daisy chain connection, a splitter terminal block is required
(please contact your service representative for this splitter). There are two switches
on the DIP switch bank: SW-2 and SW-1. Both are default to the Off position. On the
DIP switch bank, SW-2 is the enable terminal resistance switch. Turn this switch to
the On position when this is used as a terminal device.
For Lithium Ion battery BMS monitoring, switch the SW-1 to the On position.

7.4 UPS Operation
7.4.1 UPS Startup
Startup preparation:
Before starting up the UPS, please make sure that the wiring is securely
connected to the terminal block to prevent electric shock and arcing.
• Verify that the total UPS output load does not exceed the rated capacity
of the UPS;
• The wiring of the UPS input and output is correctly connected according
to the required mode. Refer to section 4.1- input/output wiring;
• Confirm that the UPS output devices are off;
• Make sure the UPS is connected to the batteries properly;
• Install the communication modules if required.
56
5. After the UPS is powered off again, insert the EPO terminal and power it
on again
• Press the button for more than 1 second, the buzzer will beep and the
UPS will start up. After a few seconds, the UPS will enter the mains
page.
• If the utility power is out of range, the UPS will transfer to Battery
mode.
• The UPS can be started without any batteries connected to it. If this is
the case, the ‘no battery’ alarm will appear, and if utility power is out
of rage, the load will drop.
• When the LCD shows a charging sign during online mode, it indicates
that the batteries are being charged.
• Startup the output devices.
When the UPS is connected to the batteries, wait for at least 10 seconds
before pressing the power button.
’Start on Battery’ can be enabled or disabled. For details, see 7.3.4 Settings →
Battery Setting.
Make sure all connections are correct.
• Press the On/Off button for more than 0.1 seconds. The UPS will start up
with fans rotating and LCD displaying the startup animation then enters
the main page displaying it is on Standby Mode.
• After 10 seconds of inoperation, the LCD screen will switch off and UPS
will power down.
• Press and hold the On/Off button for more than 1 second, the buzzer beeps
and the UPS will enter battery mode with the outlets powered up.
• If the utility power is connected at this time, the UPS will switch to online
57
mode without interruption to the output.
• In battery mode, the buzzer will beep once every 4 seconds to indicate that
batteries are being discharged. To disable this alarm, see section 7.3.4
Setting → General
• Since utility power is not present, the input out of tolerance alarm will
appear on the LCD screen.
• Working modes
• Automatic Restart
After the battery is depleted and utility power is restored, the UPS will enter
the bypass mode and charge the batteries. If automatic restart is enabled, and
58
the battery reaches the set restart threshold, The UPS will automatically restart.
If the restart battery level threshold is set to 0%, the UPS will restart as soon
as utility power is restored.
• Short circuit fault clearance function
If the Short circuit fault clearance function is disabled, after the UPS will turn
to fault mode after 200ms of a short circuit occurance, and the output will be
switched off until the fault is cleared.
If the Short circuit fault clearance function is enabled, after 200ms of a short
circuit occurance, the UPS will keep at the rated current output for 10 seconds.
If the fault is cleared within 10 seconds, the UPS will automatically return to
the online mode, otherwise it will switch to fault mode. This function is
particularly useful when multiple output circuits are connected, a short circuit
of a single output circuit will cause the fuse of that circuit to blow, thus
ensuring power supply continuity to the other circuits.
By default, the overload warning starts at 105% of the rated output. This can be
adjusted to suit different applications.
This function enables the UPS to calculate the actual discharge power based on
the number of EBMs or the Ah value, and dynamically adjust the battery low
voltage warning points and discharge end points. If this is function is disabled,
the battery low voltage warning is fixed at 10.5V/block, and discharge end point
is at 9.6V/block.
• Sleep mode
With this function enabled, the UPS will go into sleep mode for 60 minutes
after UPS is shut off into bypass mode while utility is not present. In this mode,
the communications, display, and other functions are still operating normally.
This function is recommended to be enabled for UPSs deployed in remote or
unattended sites.
59
7.4.4 Parallel UPS
This product can be set to share a common battery bank for multiple UPS
paralleled together. Please contact your certified Eaton service provider to
perform this operation.
Ensure the battery capacity meets the full load requirement for the
parallele system:
For 2 UPS paralleled system, the common battery string’s rating
shall be greater than 18Ah;
For 3 UPS paralleled system, the common battery string’s rating
60
shall be greater than 27Ah;
8. Battery maintenance
Batteries are an important component in a UPS system. The life span of the batteries
is dependant on the ambient temperature and the number of discharges. A general
rule of thumb is: The higher the temperature is past the rated ambient temperature,
and higher the number of discharges that occurs, the lower the life span of the
batteries will be.
There are no batteries in the UPS’ power modules. It is recommended to use the
standard EBM in this product series. Standard EBM usage precautions:
1. Batteries are of sealed lead-acid maintenance free type. When connected to the
utility power via the UPS’ power module, the batteries will always be cahregd
regardless of the state the UPS is in. The charging of the batteries is managed by
the power module and provides over-charging and deep discharge protection.
2. The ambient temperature around the batteries should be maintained between 15-
25 ° C.
4. It is recommended to schedule a full battery discharge test once every 4-6 months
in a standard ambient temperature environment, and once every 2 months in
higher temperature environment.
6. When replacing batteries, please ensure all batteries within a string have a
consistent rating and age. IT is advisable to replace a whole string rather than
individual battery blocks.
7. The batteries have a design life of 5 years, with a typical life expactency of 3-5
years if used in a condition closed to what’s described on the specifications in this
document. If batteries are used in conditions that differ to the specifications, it is
advisable to schedule battery replacements more frequent than a 3-5 years to
ensure good power continuity.
