Meaning and Corrective Action

AC INPUT

Input Fail

MMU

The rectifier input line voltage is outside of specified limits or the input

circuit breaker is opened while the battery circuit breaker remains closed.

The battery supplies power to the critical load through the UPS inverter.

Provide an alternate source of AC power or prepare to initiate critical load

procedures when battery reserve time is low.

DC BUS

DC Ground Fault

MMU

D, L, S

Either the positive (+) or negative (-) DC bus is grounded. No transfer or

shutdown occurs.

Contact Liebert Global Services at once. Do not attempt to locate or repair

the fault.

DC Capacitor

Fuse Blown

MMU

D, F, S

At least one DC capacitor fuse has opened. The UPS module is taken off-

line and the input and battery circuit breakers trip open.

Contact Liebert Global Services at once. Do not attempt to reset the

circuit breakers.

Battery CB Open

MMU

D, R, S

The module battery circuit breaker (MBD) is open. This circuit breaker can

be opened either manually or automatically in a UPS shutdown

procedure. If the UPS is operating with this breaker open, the critical

load is not protected from loss of the utility source power.

After AC power is restored and the DC bus is at 100% operating voltage,

manually close the battery circuit breaker so the rectifier can charge the

battery.

Battery

Discharging

MMU

D, R, S

The battery is discharging. This occurs whenever the battery supplies

power to the load for more than 5 seconds because of input power failure,

a rectifier problem or an overload condition. If the input power or a source

of auxiliary power is restored to the UPS module, the UPS automatically

returns to normal operation.

Watch the battery voltage carefully. Reduce the load (begin controlled

shutdown) to extend the battery back-up time. Reset the UPS alarms after

the input power is restored. The message clears after 30 seconds.

Low Battery

Warning

MMU

D, R, S

The battery voltage is approaching the minimum discharge voltage

(approximately 5 minutes remaining).

Complete the controlled shutdown of the critical load. Reset the alarms if

the input power is restored before shutdown.

Low Battery

Shutdown

MMU

D, F, L, S

The battery voltage has decreased to the minimum discharge value. The

UPS module is taken off-line (no power to the critical load) and the

battery and input circuit breakers trip open.

Perform a UPS system start-up procedure when AC power becomes

available.

DC Overvoltage

Shutdown

MMU

D, F, L, S

The maximum preset value of the DC Bus voltage has been exceeded.

The UPS module is taken off-line and the input and battery circuit

breakers trip open.

Contact Liebert Global Services at once. A fault may have occurred within

the UPS. Do not attempt to reset the circuit breaker.

BYPASS

Load On Bypass

SCC

D

The critical load is being supplied power from the bypass line and is

therefore exposed to utility power disturbances.

Clear all of the alarms before attempting to retransfer the load from the

bypass line to the UPS.
