3.0 Installation For Single Module and Shared Systems
This section describes the installation for EPS 7000 single module and shared systems. Including inter-cabinet
connections, mains1 & 2, AC bypass input/outputs, and the battery. Each paragraph is titled for single module or
shared system descriptions when applicable.
The steps to be followed are:
◗
Familiarization with information provided in the document package located behind the door of the unit.
◗
Placement of the UPS module and applicable battery and auxiliary cabinet(s).
◗
Connection of input power, output power, and inter-cabinet control and power cables.
◗
Start-up of the system.
Installation of UPS equipment must be handled by skilled technicians and electricians familiar with the special
requirements of high-energy electrical equipment. The installation must comply with the requirements of the
National Electrical Code (NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70, latest issue) and with local codes and requirements as applicable.
3.1 UPS Placement for Connections
Move the EPS 7000 module, battery cabinet(s) (if any), and auxiliary cabinet(s) (if any), to their final location, as
described in the Mechanical considerations section. For cabinets installed adjacent to each other, alignment is
critical to properly install the spacers and cabinet interconnects. Refer to the installation drawings for handling,
moving the cabinet, placement, alignment, and mechanical connections.
Remove the packing materials and lift the enclosures to remove the pallets. Refer to the handling instructions and
installation drawings supplied with the equipment for pallet removal procedures.
3.1.1 Noise
Consideration should be given to the specific location of the cabinet to minimize the potential for sound transmis-
sion to surrounding structures and sound reflection. It is suggested that the following installation methods be
included.
1. If possible, mount the cabinets away from corners of walls or ceilings. For installations which must be near a
corner, use sound absorbing materials on the walls and ceilings, if necessary, to eliminate reflection.
2. Provide a solid foundation for mounting the cabinets.
3. Provide flexible conduit to make the connections to the I/O cabinet.
4. Locate the cabinets as far as practically possible from areas where high sound levels are undesirable.
