MegaFlex 1000 to 1600
UPS Installation Guide / REV-A
4.9.3 Use of MegaFlex 1000 to 1600 in eBoost™ Operation Mode
Note!
For systems intended to be operated in eBoost™ Operation Mode, the installation shall be
protected with suitable surge protection devices (SPDs) on the AC bus feeding the UPSs.
Please contact your ABB Service Centre for more information.
Note!
In eBoost
TM
Operation Mode the Inverter output filter is placed in parallel with the Load and
combined with the Load current it contributes to the UPS input characteristic.
As the Inverter output filter exhibits a predominantly capacitive characteristic, it may provide
some degree of reactive power compensation when combined with lagging power factor loads.
Conversely, depending on the load type and level, the UPS input characteristic may exhibit a leading
power factor in eBoost
TM
Operation Mode.
Please contact your ABB Service Centre for more information.
Note!
If an emergency generator set supplies the UPS in case of Utility Failure and the system is intended
to be operated in eBoost™ Operation Mode, eBoost operation shall be prevented during generator
operation.
This can be accomplished by either installing a “GENERATOR ON” signal (refer to Section 5.2.5) or
an “eBoost CONTROL” signal (refer to Section 5.2.7).
Please contact your ABB Service Centre for more information.
