6.0 STARTUP AND SHUTDOWN PROCEDURES
6.1 Startup
After the unit is installed, the AC Input and Output wires landed and the batteries are
installed and wired per Sections 3 - 5, the unit is ready to be started up.
Ensure that the incoming AC voltage is reaching the unit by turning on all feed circuit
breakers. Once AC input is verified, simply turn on the System ON/OFF switch. The unit
will go through a series of diagnostics to verify proper connections and then will go into
the charge mode. The unit is now on-line and ready. Verify that all load connections are
operating within the specifications of the unit by measuring AC currents on both the
incoming line and outgoing load and measure all neutral currents to ensure line and
neutral currents are the same.
Press the Test button on the front panel to verify that all loads are operational and
ensure there are no overloads by measuring all the load currents.
If at any time you have questions
–
please consult the factory
6.2 Shutdown
To completely shut the system down, switch the System ON/OFF switch to the OFF
position. If the unit is shut down for a long duration please see Battery Storage Section
2.2 to ensure that the batteries are not damaged from the effects of self-discharge and
high ambient temperatures.
7.0 SYSTEM OPERATION
7.1 Startup Mode
When the E3-MAC Series is first turned on using the System ON/OFF switch, it goes
through a sequence of self-tests which ensures proper connections are made and also
checks for faults that may be present. The inverter must qualify several things before
advancing to the Battery Charging mode. There will be two distinct clicks of relays as it
goes through the self-check sequence. After all the Start-Up diagnostics are performed,
the E3-MAC Series is OK to proceed to the Battery Charging mode.
7.2 Battery Charging Mode
The Battery Charging mode is where the system will remain for most of the products
life. In this mode, AC power is being passed from the INPUT AC through to the OUTPUT
AC and subsequently its loads are being powered and the internal battery charger is
maintaining a float charge. The charger is regulating or floating the batteries at 2.26
Volts per Cell (VPC) and is temperature compensated to 4mV per deg. C (per cell),
