4.3. Description and operating principle.
This user's manual describes the installation and operating of the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) from SPS.ADVANCE RT series, for power ranges between 750 and 3000VA.
These Line-interactive equipments with pure sinewave output, are designed to protect the most critical electronic devices against problems of the power supply like undervoltages, peaks, brownouts, noise in the line and electrical mains fault.
Among other applications, we can quote, PCs, servers, workstations, and other IT networks devices.
The design allows both the rack-mounting assembling with 2U height to be fitted in 19" cabinet, previous installation of the side metallic support with L shape and tower format by using the plastic supports as a plinth.
The UPS has a front panel with LCD and four buttons (Start up switch, Silent/UPS test, Setting and Enter) allow an easy monitoring: Configuration and control, AC input line, inform about the wiring fault and the load status. It also includes two LCD bar graphs, one indicates the battery charge level and the other one the level of the load connected at its output. Each bar is divided into five parts, which each one is equivalent to 20% of the total value.
The equipment has four acoustic alarms (Back up time mode -discharge of the battery-, low battery - end of back up time-, overload and UPS fault). By means of the Silent/UPS test button located at the front panel, the acoustic alarm can be deactivated or to initiated the autotest procedure.
The SPS.ADVANCE RT equipments are fed from AC commercial mains and supply AC energy at their output through the IEC outlets installed at the rear side of the equipment. In case the power supply is correct, the load/s are fed through the stabilizer with «Boost» and «Buck» technology.
In case of mains fault or voltage and/or frequency out of the acceptable range, load/s will be fed from the batteries through the inverter for a determined time, depending on the model, battery charge level and the own load connected at the output.
For models higher than 1000 VA, it is possible to increase the standard back up time of the equipments, by connecting additional modules and/or to optimise the recharging time of the accumulators, by fitting chargers with better quality performances (B1).
All the power range has serial and USB communication ports for communication and equipment control. The serial port supports the direct communications with a server and the protocol is according to a RS-232 interface.
Also, all models have RJ-45 connectors for modem / ADSL / Fax line protection.

Tabla 2. Standardised models.
4.4. Options.
Depending on the selected configuration, the equipment can include any of the following options:
4.4.1. Isolation transformer.
The isolation transformer, provides a galvanic isolation that allows isolating the output from the input completely.
The installation of an electrostatic shield between the primary and secondary windings of the transformer provides a high level of attenuation of the electrical noises.
The isolation transformer can be installed at the input or output of the UPS from SPS.ADVANCE RT series and it will always be located out from the equipment enclosure.
4.4.2. External maintenance manual bypass.
The purpose of this option is to isolate electrically the equipment from mains and critical loads, without breaking the power supply to the loads. Therefore, in this way the maintenance or fixing tasks can be done in the equipment with no interruption on the power supply energy to the protected system, at the same time that unnecessary risks are avoided to the technical staff.
4.4.3. Integration in IT networks by means of the SNMP adaptor.
The big IT systems based on LANs and WANs that integrate servers with different platforms, they have to include an easy way of controlling and management at the manager system disposal. This facility is got through the SNMP adaptor, which is well-known by the main software and hardware manufacturers
The available SNMP option for SPS.ADVANCE RT series is a card to be inserted into the slot that the UPS has in its rear side.
The connection of the UPS with the SNMP is internal meanwhile the connection between the SNMP and the IT network is done through a RJ45 connector 10 base.
4.4.4. AS400 card.
See section 5.3.6.3.
4.4.5. MODBUS protocol.
The big IT systems based on LANs and WANs, many times they require that the communication with any device has to be integrated in the IT network and it has to be done by means of an industrial standard protocol.
One of the most used industrial standard protocols in the market is the MODBUS protocol. SPS.ADVANCE RT series is also ready to be integrated in this type of environments through the external "SNMP TH card" device with MODBUS protocol.
4.4.6. Extensible rail kit for rack cabinet assembling.
There is available only one model of telescopic guide kit for all models, suitable for any type of rack cabinet.
These guides allow installing any unit of the SPS.ADVANCE RT equipment and their possible battery modules, in case of extended back up times, as it was a rack with its respective cabinet.
5. Installation.
• Check the Safety instructions (see chapter 2).
- Check that the data in the nameplate are the required by the installation.
- A wrong connection or manoeuvring, can make faults in the UPS and/or loads connected to itself. Read carefully the instructions of this manual and follow the stated steps in the established order.
- The equipments can be installed and used by personnel with no specific training just with the help of this «Manual».
- All connections of the equipment including the control (interface, remote panel, ...), will be done with the switches at rest and no voltage present (UPS power supply switch to «Off»).
- Never forget that the UPS is an electrical energy generator, so the user has to take the needed cautions against direct and indirect contacts.
• Under request, we are able to supply a manual bypass panel.
- Battery circuit is not isolated from input voltage. Hazardous voltages can be found out between the battery terminals and earth. Check that there is not input voltage before doing any intervention on them.
5.1. To be considered in the installation.
- All the range has a power cord with plug for input and IEC outlets for output, as connection parts for power. The rest of connections are done through the connectors, including the connection of the equipment with the battery module (it is not available on equipments below 1000VA).
- Cross cable section of the bypass, input and output lines, will be calculated from the currents stated in the nameplate of each equipment, and respecting the Local and/or National Low Voltage Electrotechnical Regulations.
- Protections of the switchgear panel, will have the following features:
☐ For input line, type B for RCD devices and C characteristic for circuit breakers.
☐ For the output (load feeding), C characteristic for circuit breaker.
Regarding the size, they will be as minimum to the currents stated in the nameplate of each UPS.
- In the nameplate of the equipment there are only printed the nominal currents as it is stated in the safety standard EN-IEC 62040-1. To calculate the input current, the power factor and the efficiency of the equipment have been considered.
Overload conditions are considered as nonpermanent and exceptional operating mode.
- If it is added peripherals to the input and/or output like transformers or autotransformers to the UPS, the currents stated in the own nameplates of those elements has to be considered in order to use the suitable cross sections, by respecting the Local and/or National Low Voltage Regulation.
- When an equipment incorporates a galvanic isolation transformer, as standard, as an option or either installed by yourself, either at the UPS input or output or at all of them, protections against indirect contact has to be fitted in (residual current device) at the output of each transformer,
because due to its specification of isolation it will prevent the triggering of the protections fitted in the primary of the transformer in case of electrical shock in the secondary (output of the isolation transformer).
- Remind you that all external isolation transformers already installed or supplied from factory, has the neutral of the secondary connected to earth by means of a cable bridge between both terminals. If it were required an isolated output neutral, remove this cable bridge, keeping the precautions stated in the respective local and/or national low voltage regulations.
- All the UPSs have batteries inside the same rack enclosure of the equipment. Battery protection is by means of fuse and internal, so it is no accessible by the end-user.
Battery modules have internal protections by fuse, and they are not accessible by the end-user too.
5.2. Reception of the equipment.

5.3.8. Considerations before commissioning with load connected.
- It is recommended to charge the batteries for 12 hours as minimum before using the UPS for first time. When supplying voltage to the equipment, the battery charger will automatically work.
- (B) equipments with extended back up time has a battery charger with higher quality performances. It is recommended to charge the batteries for 12 hours as minimum before using the UPS for first time.
- Nevertheless, those equipments with extended back up time and with no additional battery charger, it's recommended to charge the batteries of each battery module for 12 hours.
- Although the equipment can work without charging the batteries during the stated time without any problem, the risk of a long blackout has to be valued during the first operating hours and the available autonomy time in the UPS.
- Do not start up the equipment and loads completely till chapter 6 states it.
Nevertheless, when it is done, it will be done gradually to avoid any problem, as minimum in the first commissioning.
- If inductive loads with big inrush current apart from sensitive ones are required to be connected like laser printers or CRT monitors, keep in mind the start inrush currents of these peripherals in order to avoid that the equipment becomes blocked under the worst conditions.
It is better to not connect the loads of this kind, due to the high quantity of energy resources that take from the UPS.

7.1.6. Explanations about the user settings and other ones.
7.1.6.1. Operating modes.
• Normal range: In this mode, the input voltage range are ±20%.
- Wide range: In this mode, the input voltage range are from +20% to -30%.
- Gen mode: On this mode the load is transferred to battery mode (inverter output), when frequency is higher than the upper and lower threshold, of 40 and 70 Hz respectively.
- Battery mode (inverter output): When the UPS is working out from the range or during a blackout, the acoustic alarm beeps every four seconds. Also the LCD panel displays the "BATT" indication, corresponding to the status of the equipment to show the UPS operating mode -Battery mode-. If on this condition, the battery capacity is low, the alarm beeps once per second and the LCD panel displays the "BATL" indication.
- Standby mode.
When the UPS is shutdown and it remains connected to the wall outlet, it will be on standby mode. In the LCD panel will display "STBY" to show that the power supply to the loads is not available. On this mode the battery will be charged, if it was needed.
7.1.6.2. IEC outlet groups.
- It is possible to set the status (active or deactive) of the both available connector groups LS1 and LS2, at any time and separately.

This function is not available in equipments ≤ 1 kVA, because there is only one IEC connector group.
- To set the IEC outlet group through the LCD panel of the equipment, proceed as follows:
☐ 1.- Enter into the configuration mode.
Press the key for more than 3 seconds and the UPS will shift to setting mode.
☐ 2.- Select the configuration elements.
Press the key to select the configurable elements stated in table 10 and go forward or backward till reaching "LS1" or "LS2" as it is required.
☐ 3.- Validate the configuration element.

8. Maintenance, warranty and service.
8.1. Maintenance of the battery.
- Pay attention to the safety instructions regarding battery (see document EK266*08).
- The equipment from SPS.ADVANCE RT series only requires a minimum maintenance. The used battery in the standard models is Pb-Ca, sealed, VRLA and maintenance free. These models require a minimum of reparations. The only requirement is to charge the UPS regularly, in order to prolong the battery lifetime. Meanwhile, it is connected to the power supply, never mind if the UPS is ON or OFF, it will keep the batteries charged.
- In equipments that include Pb-Ca batteries, the figures, stated in table 2 of the EK266*08 document, of charge period time depending on the temperature that they are exposed, must be respected, otherwise the warranty will be invalidated.
- Under normal conditions, the battery lifetime is from 3 to 5 years 25^ C. In case that the battery was not in good conditions, it has to be replaced before. This replacement has to be done by qualified staff.
• Always replace them with the same quantity and type. - Do not replace one battery only. All batteries have to be replaced at the same time and following the instructions of the manufacturer.
8.1.1. Notes for installing and replacing the batteries.
- If it is needed to replace the connection of any wire, purchase original parts through authorised distributors or service centres in order to avoid overheating or sparks with risk of fire because the size could not be enough.
- Do not short the + and - poles of the batteries, there is risk of fire or electrocution.
- Be sure that there is no voltage before touching the batteries. Battery circuit is not isolated from the input circuit. Hazardous voltages can be found between the battery and earth terminals.
- Even with the input circuit breaker switch from protection panel is turned off, the internal parts of the UPS are still connected to the batteries, so there are hazardous voltages inside.
Therefore, before doing any reparation or maintenance task, the internal battery fuses and/or the interlink connections between them and the UPS, have to be removed.
- Batteries have hazardous voltages. The battery maintenance and replacement have to be done by qualified personnel and familiarised with them. Nobody else can manipulate them.

9.2. Glossary.
- AC.- It is nominated as alternating current (abbreviation in Spanish CA and in English AC) to the electrical current in which the magnitude and direction varies in a cyclic way. The most common wave shape of the alternating current is sinewave, because the energy transmission is better. Nevertheless, some applications could need other period wave shapes, like triangular or square.
- Bypass.- Manual or automatic, it is the physical junction between the input and the output electric device.
- DC.- The direct current (CC in Spanish, DC in English) is the continuous electron flow through a cable between two points with different potential. Unlike the alternating current, in direct current the electrical loads always flow in the same direction from the highest potential point to the lowest one. Although, usually the direct current is identified with the constant current (for example the one supplied by the battery), it is continuous any current that always maintain the polarity.
-
DSP.- It is the acronym of Digital Signal Processor. A DSP is a system based on a processor or microprocessor that has instructions in it, a hardware and an optimised software to develop applications where numerical operations are needed with very fast speed. Due to this, it is very useful to process analogical signals in real time: in a system that runs in this way (real time) samples are received, usually coming from an analogical/digital converter(ADC).
-
Power factor.- It is defined as power factor, p.f., of an alternating current circuit, as the ratio between the active power, P, and the apparent power, S, or as the cosines of the angle that make the current and voltage vectors, designating as , being the value of that angle.
- GND.- The term ground, as its name states, refers to the potential of the earth surface.
- EMI filter.- Filter able to decrease the electromagnetic interferences, which is the perturbation that happens in a radio receptor or in any other electrical circuit caused by the electromagnetic radiation coming from an external source. Also it is known as EMI, ElectroMagnetic Interference, Radio Frequency Interference or RFI. This perturbation can derate or limit the efficiency of the circuit.
- IGBT.- The Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor is a semiconductor device that is used as a controlled switch in power electronic circuits. This device has the feature of the gate signal of the effect field transistors with the capacity of high current and low voltage saturation of the bipolar transistor, combining an isolated FET gate for the input and a bipolar transistor as switch in a single device. The triggering circuit of the IGBT is as the MOSFET one, while the driving features are like the BJT.
-
Interface.- In electronic, telecommunications and hardware, an interface (electronic) is the port (physical circuit) through which are sent or received signals from a system or subsystems toward others.
-
KVA.- The voltampere is the unit of the apparent power in electrical current. In direct current is almost equal to the real power but in alternating current can defer depending on the power factor.
- LCD.- LCD acronym of Liquid Crystal Display, device invented by Jack Janning, who was employee of NCR. It is an electric system of data presentation based on 2 transparent conductor layers and in the middle a special crystal liquid that have the capacity to orientate the light when trespassing.
- LED.- LED acronym of Light Emitting Diode, is a semiconductor device (diode) that emits light almost monochrome with a very narrow spectrum, it means, when it is direct polarized and it is crossed by an electric current. The colour, (wave longitude), depends on the semiconductor material used in its construction, being able to vary from the ultraviolet one, going through the visible spectrum light, to the infrared, receiving these last ones the denomination of IRED (Infra Red Emitting Diode).
- Circuit breaker.- A circuit breaker or switch, is a device ready to break the electrical current of a circuit when it overcomes the maximum set values.
- On-Line mode.- Regarding to an equipment, it is on line when it is connected to the system, and it is in operation, and usually has its power supply turned on.
- Inverter.- An inverter, is a circuit used to convert direct current into alternating current. The function of an inverter is to change an input voltage of direct current into a symmetrical output voltage of alternating current, with the required magnitude and frequency by the user or the designer.
- Rectifier.- In electronic, a rectifier is the element or circuit that allows to convert the alternating current into direct current. This is done by rectifier diodes, which can be solid state semiconductors, vacuum or gassy valves as the mercury vapour. Depending on the features of the alternating current power supply used, it is classified as single phase, when they are fed by a single phase electrical mains, or three phase when they are fed by the three phases. Depending on the rectification type, they can be half wave, when only one of the current semi-cycles is used, or full wave, where both semicycles are used.
- Relay.- The relay(in French relais, relief) is an electromechanical device that works as a switch controlled by an electric circuit where, through an electromagnet, a set of contacts are moved and it allows to open or to close other independent electric circuits.
- SCR.- Abbreviation of «Silicon Controlled Rectifier», called commonly as Thyristor: semiconductor device of 4 layer that works as almost an ideal switch.
- THD.- They are the acronyms of «Total Harmonic Distortion». The total harmonic distortion is done when the output signal of a system is not equivalent to the one that enter into it. This lack of linearity affects to the wave shape, because the equipment has introduced harmonics that they were not in the input signal. As they are harmonics, it means multiple of the input signal, this distortion is not so dissonant and it is more difficult to detect.
