Operating Manual

SitePro 10-15-20-30-40 kVA / S8

11.1.4 Battery

We recommend a periodic

Manual Battery Test

, especially if the

Automatic Battery Test

is disabled, in

order to verify if the

Battery

can provide the expected backup time in case of

Mains Failure

We recommend that this test is performed at least every

3 months

, especially if the

Battery

is not

sufficiently discharged during normal operation.
The discharge time you use should be at least half of the

Battery

runtime.

For

Automatic Battery Test

setting, a special code is required to enter user set-up parameters.

The start up technician has access to this code and can program this feature during start up.

Please consider that, if you did a full

Battery Test

to verify the full runtime of the

Battery

, the charger

needs at least

8 hours

to recharge the

Battery

up to 90% of its capacity.

Long shut-down periods of the UPS system

To guarantee that the

Battery

is fully charged, the UPS system should be in operation for at least

hours every 3 months

If not the

Battery

may be permanently damaged.

11.1.5 UPS room conditions and temperature

The UPS room and the

Battery Room

have to be maintained clean and free from dust.

A high temperature of the UPS room and of the

Battery Room

affect the lifetime of several components

inside the equipment.

The

Battery

is very sensitive to room temperatures above

77°F

(25°C).

11.1.6 Preventive maintenance program

Cleaning, a visual inspection and a mechanical inspection of the UPS modules.

Replacement of defective parts or the preventive replacement of parts with a defined lifetime.

“Updating” of the equipment (technical improvements subsequent to the delivery).

Check the calibration of

DC voltage

and

Inverter Output Voltage

and

Frequency

Check of the settings of the electronic regulation, the control and the alarm circuits of the

Rectifier(s)

and

Inverter(s)

Functional checks on

Thyristors

Diodes

Transformers

Filter Components

, e.g. to ensure that they

are operating within the specified design parameters.

Overall performance test including a

Mains Failure

simulation with and without the

Load

Monitoring

Battery

operation in discharge and recharge mode including any boost charge duties.

NOTE !

Ask to your local

Service Centre

to submit the form of

Preventive Maintenance

Contract

suitable for your specific needs.
