2 System Description

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - System Description - 1

PROTECT B. is an Uninterruptible_Power_Supply (UPS) for essential loads such as PCs, workstations, servers, network components, telecommunication equipment and similar devices.

The PROTECT B. series is a compact, interactive, sinusoidaly operating USP, available with an output power rate of 750, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 3000 VA.

The design of the USP allows horizontal / lying operation (Rack/19" with 2U) and vertical / standing operation (Tower).

2.1 Overview

The front of the UPS provides several LEDs and four push buttons for easy configuration, control and management. The panel also informs about the state of the power in the alternating current (AC) branch, indications on net failures and the charging state of the Output of the UPS. You will find two LED bars for output load and battery capacity, two state indicators (net available, battery active) and four alarm indicators (power failure, failure, battery discharged, overload). With the push button the acoustic alarm can be deactivated and the self test of the UPS will be started.

Power connectors, communication interfaces and connections for telephone and network are located on the rear of the PROTECT B. Important UPS parameters and data are constantly monitored and are transmitted via USB or serial RS232 to the “CompuWatch” Software on the management computer. The optional SNMP adapter allows remote monitoring via SNMP connector and multi server shutdown (starting with B.1500).

The main features of the PROTECT B. are:

♦ VI (Line Interactive) protection technology with sinusoidal output voltage

♦ AVR control system (automatic voltage regulation with mains operation)

◆ Micro processor control for high availability, suited for generator mode
◆ Easy extension of battery capacity using external batteries (starting with B.1500)
◆ Advanced battery management with integrated protection against extreme discharge and overcharge
♦ Overload and short circuit proof
◆ Maintenance free, sealed lead batteries, hot swappable (starting with B.1500)
◆ User friendly display for optimal readability / configuration
◆ Intelligent monitoring system with USB and RS232 interface
◆ Surge protection (RJ11 / RJ45) for phone, fax, modem and network (10/100MBit/s)
◆ Expansion slot for extension cards, i.e. SNMP (starting with B.1500)
◆ “CompuWatch” software for shutdown, state report and measurement for all popular operating systems (among others Windows, Mac, Linux)
◆ Compact design / variable deployment due to combination design as tower / rack (19" kit available optionally for all models)

2.2 Functionality

The UPS is connected to a shockproof socket between the public utility's mains and the loads to be protected.

Under normal operating conditions, i.e. if PROTECT B. is supplied with mains voltage, the battery charger will ensure that the battery is always completely charged.

During this operating status, the loads connected to PROTECT B. are supplied with voltage via mains filters which provide effective protection against mains voltage peaks and high-frequency faults.

In case of sustained mains undervoltage or overvoltage within defined ranges, the automatic voltage regulator (AVR) further

stabilizes the load voltage. As a result, voltage fluctuations in the public utility's mains are reduced to a level which is acceptable for the loads. This is performed without recourse to the internal energy storage, something which in turn has a positive effect on battery availability.

UPS block diagram PROTECT B.

The static bypass switch is activated in the event of a mains failure. The inverter then takes over the voltage supply of the connected loads, in order to prevent the risk of data loss or damage to the loads. PROTECT B. supplies voltage until the battery is discharged, allowing you to shut down your IT system properly and switch it off. The standby time mainly depends on the connected loads. If the mains power supply is back to normal values, the UPS will switch back the loads to mains supply. The battery charger will then recharge the battery.

For safety reasons (as required by German standards, VDE), the mains input in the unit will be disconnected by a two-pole switch in the event of a mains failure. Energy backfeed to the mains and voltage supply to the pins of the mains connector are thus reliably avoided.

Furthermore, additional protective measures ensure effective protection for the data/network interface.

  6. Plug in the UPS, then pressing power switch button to turn on the UPS.

  7. Activate the external EPO switch to test the EPO function

  8. De-activate the external EPO switch and restart the UPS.

5.4 Electric start-up

First compare the setting with the rated voltage valid in your country. The factory default setting is 230 V

Make any changes in accordance with the description in chapter 5.4.2 "Configuration".

5.4.1 Connection

Now connect the input of the UPS (pos. 1 fig. p. 24/25) to the mains connection cable provided and plug the mains connector into a suitable shockproof socket.

  1. Avoid using extension cables and/or adapters. In particular in the case of high-capacity types, ensure that the fusing in your sub-distribution is adequately dimensioned: The PROTECT B. 3000 for example requires its own connection with a 16 A fuse. No other loads should be connected to this circuit!

  2. Then connect the outputs of your UPS (pos. 2 fig. p. 24/25) to your loads. Use the load connection cables provided for this. Don't switch on the loads yet. Please contact your dealer if you require additional load connection cables.

  3. Now switch on the UPS. To do this, press and hold the UPS main switch ⏻ for about 3 seconds until the display goes on.

  4. The UPS acknowledges your command by starting a self test. During this automatically running procedure a periodically audible signal can be heard The green "Mains" LED is permanently illuminated when the normal

operating stag has been reached (pos. 7 p. 3). In case anything different occurs, please follow the instructions in Chapters 6.2 / 6.3.

i

Please shut down the entire system if you cannot solve any problems which occur. Please contact our hotline (see page 4).

  1. When the LINE MODE display is lit, switch on your loads one after the other. Note the maximum permitted UPS load when doing this (pos. 9 fig. p. 42).

In particular, bear in mind the considerable power consumption of loads such as laser printers, large CRT monitors and the like which can quickly lead to a UPS overload.

5.4.2 Configuration

To reconfigure the internal UPS setup options, follow the procedure as below:

  1. Press the Configure 📋 button more than three seconds. Then UPS will transfer from configure mode to "output voltage mode" showing the value by a flashing LED at 220 Vac, 230 Vac or 240 Vac.

  2. Press the Configure 📋 button more than one second, the UPS allows you to select the “output voltage mode” one by one.

  3. After selecting the mode, press the Enter button more than three seconds, the "output voltage mode" is configured.

  4. UPS will automatically transfer from configure mode to "operating mode" displayed by a flashing LED beside NORMAL, GENERATOR or WIDE RANGE.

  5. Press the Configure 📋 button more than one second; the UPS will allow you to select the “operating mode” one by one.

  6. After selecting the mode, press the confirmation

button more than three seconds to complete the configuration.

5.5 Operation

Once you have connected the UPS to a suitable mains connection, you can start operation using the UPS main switch.

On and Off switch

◆ To switch on the USP press the button sec. (until the display goes on).
for about 3
◆ To switch off the UPS press the button signal stops.
util the UPS

Normally, the UPS operates continuously. The UPS now supplies the output with voltage, this being signaled by the green LED LINE MODE which lights up permanently (pos. 7 p. 42).

5.5.1 Normal Operation

During normal operation, i.e. when mains voltage is available, the built-in battery charger keeps the battery fully charged and the mains voltage monitoring system switches the inverter to standby mode.

The connected loads are powered using the monitored and filtered mains voltage, which is additionally stabilised by the integrated AVR control unit.

The UPS capacity utilisation can be read off the bar chart of the operating panel (pos. 9, fig. p. 42).

5.5.2 Battery Operation / Autonomous Operation

When there is a mains failure or if the input voltage moves outside the tolerance range, the inverter automatically switches over to autonomous mode and supplies the loads with voltage from the battery. This drains the capacity of the battery and it is discharged. This status is signalled by the yellow LED BAT.MODE flashing as well as an intermittent acoustic signal (s. p. 42)

If the UPS does not automatically return to normal operation after a few minutes, close all jobs as usual and switch off your loads (e.g. PC) before the battery is fully discharged. This lengthens the service life of the battery! Switch OFF the UPS by pressing the main switch ⏻

During the discharge process as the battery capacity consistently drops, the LED BAT.MODE flashes, accompanied by an intermittent double acoustic signal (once every four seconds). When the battery undervoltage limit is reached (acoustic signal every second), the electronic of the UPS switches off the power supply for the loads.

Never store the unit in this condition! The discharged battery system should be recharged within a week.

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - Battery Operation / Autonomous Operation - 1

If the LED BAT.MODE flashes every second, it is time shut down the system and all connected loads! Shut down the UPS as well using the main switch.

When the mains voltage comes back, the UPS must be switched on again using the main switch (only applies if it was previously switched off manually), in order to recharge the battery and thus store sufficient battery capacity for any possible future mains failures.

The batteries will be charged automatically when connected to the mains, independently of the mode set. The charging time after longer discharge of the batteries depends especially of the number of connected external battery units.

The charging time up to 90% of the rate capacity for a standard UPS is about 3 hours.

5.5.3 Unit Overload

If the unit is overloaded (load > 110 %), an intermittent signal is heard. The power supply to the connected loads is maintained, however the connected total load must be reduced immediately.

Non-observance of the "Unit overload" condition may cause the total loss of all UPS functions!

Also avoid short-term unit overloads, which may, for example, occur when connecting a laser printer or laser fax machine. Do not connect any household appliances to the UPS.

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - Unit Overload - 1

Never connect any additional loads to the UPS if there is a mains failure, i.e. if the UPS is working in emergency power operation.

The UPS output is de-energised if there is an overload of 150 % for longer than 200 ms during normal operation. During emergency power operation, an instant shutdown additionally takes place if there is a unit overload of > 120 % (see Chapter 3.4). As a rule, if there has never been an overload during normal operation, there will not be one during battery operation either.

5.5.4 System Diagnosis / Battery Test

It is possible to press the "TEST" button (pos. 2 p. 42) to perform a manual check on the major hardware components of the UPS. This test can only be initiated if the unit is operating normally, and it involves switching the loads over to UPS inverter supply for a few seconds. As well as checking the procedures and the functional capability of the static bypass switch, this check also involves drawing current from the battery for a short time. The inverter has to provide the entire load supply, which means the entire process chain is tested with this function. Normal operation is restored after the check.

Executing the Test:

◆ To execute the manual check press the button Ⓧ for about five seconds until the UPS acoustic signal fades out.
Additionally the button has the function to deactivate the acoustic alarm signal. Press the button ⚙ when the acoustic alarm it audible for about 1 second. The tone stops. Any new error that is reported by a signal activates the alarm signal again.

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - Executing the Test: - 1

Note:

The acoustic signal can not be switched off in the following situations:

Battery weak, overload, fan failure, fan error, time cutout, overheat.

If the monitoring electronics detect an irregularity during the procedure described above, the load is immediately switched back onto the mains and is thus supplied with voltage. At the same time, an acoustic fault signal and the corresponding signals from LEDs in acc. with Chapter 6 "Signalling" are output.

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - Note: - 1

Faults detected and signalled during diagnosis must be rectified; otherwise there is a risk of load voltage loss if a mains failure occurs!

5.6 Interfaces and communication

5.6.1 Data line protection RJ11 and RJ45 (modem / telephone / fax / network)

The incoming data lines are connected to the “IN” line at the rear of the UPS. The “OUT” line is connected via data line with your terminal.

7 Maintenance

The PROTECT B. consists of advanced and resistant components. To guarantee a continuous and high availability it is recommended to check the unit (especially the batteries and the fans) in regular intervals (at least every 6 months).

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - Maintenance - 1

CAUTION:

Follow safety and security regulations unconditionally!

Visual control

When going through the visual control check whether:

♦ mechanical defects or foreign matter is visible in the system
◆ conducting dirt or dust sediments are in the unit and
◆ dust sediments prevent optimal ventilation in and out the unit.

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - Visual control - 1

CAUTION:

Before going through the next step disconnect the PROTECT B. from the mains.

If the unit is very dusty it is recommended to clean the UPS with compressed air to enable optimal ventilation.

The time intervals for the visual control depend mainly on the local situation at the deployment site.

Battery control

The aging process can be detected by regular capacity probes. Make comparison measurements every 12 month e.g. by simulating a power failure and check how long the standby time lasts. The load should always be the same for each simulation. Dramatic changes compared to the last measurements require a change of batteries. Contact your local dealer or call our hotline (see page 4).

Fan control

The fan has to be checked on a regular basis for dust intrusion and strange untypical sounds. Clogged ventilation has to be cleaned. If the fan makes a strange noise or runs irregular contact the hotline (see page 4).

8 Storage, Dismantling and Disposal

Storage

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - Storage - 1

Long storage times without charging or discharging the battery at regular intervals may lead to permanent damage of the battery.

If the battery is stored at room temperature (20 ^ C to 30 ^ C) it will automatically discharge at a rate of 3-6 % per month due to internal reactions. Storing the battery at temperatures above room temperature should be avoided. A high storage temperature also means greater battery self-discharge.

Batteries that are stored at room temperature should be recharged every six months to maintain their full capacity and service life.

AEG Protect B. 2000 VA - Storage - 2

Connect PROTECT B. to the mains without load before putting it into storage, in order to make sure that the battery is fully charged.

The charging time should be at least as long as recommended in chapter 3.4 "Technical Data".

Dismantling

The system is dismantled in reverse order of the installation instructions.

Disposal

In the interest of environmental protection and recycling, please dispose condemned components in accordance with the regulations and legal guidelines when permanently taking the system out of operation.
