Maintaining the Parallel

Capacity/Redundant System

15.1

General

You must schedule periodic performance checks of your Parallel Capacity/Redundant

system to keep it running properly. Regular routine checks of operation and system

parameters will enable your system to function efficiently for many trouble-free years.

NOTE: Refer to the applicable Powerware9315 Operation manual provided with

the UPS for UPS maintenance.

15.2

Important Safety Instructions

Remember that your Parallel Capacity/Redundant system is designed to supply

power EVEN WHEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE UTILITY POWER. The UPS

module interiors are unsafe until the DC power source is disconnected and the

electrolytic capacitors are discharged. The SSBM is unsafe until the UPS modules

have been powered down and bypass power has been removed. After

disconnecting the utility power and the DC power, authorized service personnel

should wait at least 5 minutes before attempting internal access to the UPS

module.

WARNING:

Servicing and maintenance should be performed by

qualified service personnel only.

WARNING: LETHAL VOLTAGE PRESENT.

This unit should not be operated with the cabinet doors open or protective

panels removed. Do not make any assumptions about the electrical state of any

cabinet in the UPS system.

Since each battery rack is an energy source in itself, opening the Battery Circuit

Breaker does not de-energize the voltage within the battery rack.

DO NOT

ATTEMPT TO ACCESS ANY INTERNAL AREA OF THE BATTERY RACK

YOURSELF. VOLTAGES ARE ALWAYS PRESENT IN THE BATTERY RACK.

If you suspect that a battery rack needs service, you should contact your local

Powerware field service office.
If the rack requires service, refer to the battery rack manufacturer’s operating

manual for instructions on battery rack maintenance, or contact your local

Powerware field service office.
