Understanding UPS Operation
6.1 Looking Inside the UPS System
The Powerware 9390 UPS is a continuous duty, solid-state, transformerless (at 208 and
480 Vac), three-phase, true online system that provide conditioned and uninterruptible AC
power to the UPS systems output. The UPS supports process control, data processing,
telecommunications/PBX, research, and non-patient medical equipment. The Powerware
9390 UPS maintains power to the critical loads during commercial electrical power
brownout, blackout, overvoltage, undervoltage, and out-of-tolerance frequency conditions.
The basic system consists of a rectifier, battery converter, inverter, monitoring/operation
control panel, integrated communications server, and microprocessor-controlled (DSP)
logic.
In this manual, the power required by your equipment is called the
critical load
. The UPS
supplies the critical load with conditioned power that is synchronized with your utility
power. Figure 6-1 shows the main elements of the UPS.
