Series 7400 Single Phase 1+N UPS

5.1 Introduction

This chapter contains the procedures necessary to effect general
maintenance of the UPS module and battery. Certain procedures

entail gaining internal access to the UPS, and should only be

undertaken by a competent engineer who is familiar with the

operation and layout of the equipment and understands the areas
of potential hazard. If you have any doubts concerning safety or

the method carrying out any procedure then contact an approved

service agent for assistance or advice. If the locally approved
agent is known to you, then you should contact the Customer

Services & Support department at the address shown at the front

of this manual.


The manufacturer offers customer training, at a nominal fee, if

required. Such training can range from a one-day operator course

to in-depth training on maintenance and troubleshooting lasting
several days, and can be carried out at the manufacturer’s plant or

at the customer premises.

5.2 Safety Precautions

When working on the UPS remember that the equipment contains

live voltages at ALL TIMES unless it is externally isolated from the
mains supply, bypass supply and batteries. It is essential that the

safety and precautionary notes contained throughout this manual

are read and FULLY UNDERSTOOD before touching any UPS
internal component part.

5.3 Scheduled Maintenance

The UPS utilises solid-state components which are not subject to
wear, with the only moving parts being the cooling fans. Scheduled

maintenance requirements, beyond ensuring that the

environmental conditions remain suitably cool and clean, are
therefore minimal. However, a well documented periodic program

of inspection and preventive maintenance, as suggested below, will

help to ensure optimum equipment performance and may serve to

detect certain minor malfunctions prior to them developing into a
major fault.


Carry out a daily walk-by inspection of the UPS, checking the
following points:

1. Carry out a spot check of the operator control panel; ensuring

that all mimic LED indications are normal, all metered

parameters are normal and no warning or alarm messages are

present on the display panel.


2. Check for obvious signs of overheating.

3. Listen for any noticeable change in audible noise.

4. Ensure that the ventilation grills around the UPS are

unobstructed.


5. If possible, log the results of the inspection, noting any

discrepancies from the norm.
