Getting Started
The PowerwareÒ 9315 Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) continually
monitors incoming electrical power and removes the surges, spikes, sags, and
other irregularities that are inherent in commercial utility power. With the
PowerwareÒ 9315 Parallel Redundant system, when one UPS module is taken off
line or becomes disabled, the redundant module continues working with the
building’s electrical system to supply clean, consistent power that sensitive
electronic equipment requires for reliable operation.
The parallel redundant system should function automatically and require very little
attention during normal operation. However, once installation has been completed,
read and understand the procedures in this section as they are provided to ensure
trouble-free operation.
Each component of the parallel redundant system is housed in a free-standing
cabinet designed for industrial or computer room applications. The parallel cabinet
has safety shields behind the doors for hazardous voltage protection.
The following descriptions provide a brief overview of the standard parallel
redundant features.
NOTE: Read the Operation section and have thorough knowledge of parallel
redundant operation before attempting to operate. For a more detailed
description of UPS operation, refer to PowerwareÒ 9315 Operation manual
supplied with the UPS system.
