GUIDE SPECIFICATIONS
for a 250-400kVA
Single-Module Uninterruptible Power System
GENERAL SUMMARY
These specifications describe requirements for an Uninterruptible Power System (UPS). The UPS shall automatically maintain AC power within specified tolerances to the critical load, without interruption, during failure or deterioration of the normal power source.
The manufacturer shall design and furnish all materials and equipment to be fully compatible with electrical, environmental and space conditions at the site. It shall include all equipment to properly interface the AC power source to the intended load and be designed for unattended operation.
STANDARDS
The UPS and all associated equipment and components shall be manufactured in accordance with the following applicable standards:
UL Standard 1778, 4th Edition
CSA 22.2, No. 107.1
ANSI C62.41
FCC
National Electrical Code (NFPA 70)
NEMA PE-1
OSHA
The UPS shall be UL listed per UL Standard 1778, 4th Edition, Uninterruptible Power Supplies and shall be CSA certified.
The UPS shall comply with FCC Rules and Regulations, Part 15, Subclass B, Class A.
The Quality System for the engineering and manufacturing facility shall be certified to conform to Quality System Standard ISO 9001 for the design and manufacture of power protection systems for computers and other sensitive electronics.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Design Requirements
The UPS shall be sized to provide a minimum of ____ kVA and a minimum of ____ kW output.
The UPS shall be able to power at full rated output kW loads with power factor between 0.9 lagging and 0.95 leading.
Load voltage and bypass line voltage shall be 480VAC, three-phase, 3-wire or 4-wire. Input voltage shall be 480VAC, three-phase, 3-wire.
The battery shall support the UPS at 100% rated kW load for at least _____ minutes at 77°F (25°C) at startup.
The UPS shall have a 6-pulse solid state rectifier.
An input filter with automatic disconnect for input power factor control shall be provided.
The UPS shall be equipped with an output isolation transformer.
Modes of Operation
The UPS shall operate as an on-line reverse transfer system in the following modes:
Normal: The critical AC load is continuously powered by the UPS inverter. The rectifier/ charger derives power from the utility AC source and supplies DC power to the inverter, while simultaneously float charging the battery.
Economy: The critical AC load is continuously powered by the bypass with the inverter available to power the load if the bypass source voltage or frequency exceeds adjustable parameters of power quality.
Emergency: Upon failure of utility AC power, the critical AC load is powered by the inverter which, without any switching, obtains its power from the battery plant. There shall be no interruption in power to the critical load upon failure or restoration of the utility AC source.
Recharge: Upon restoration of the utility AC source, the rectifier/charger powers the inverter and simultaneously recharges the battery. This shall be an automatic function and shall cause no interruption to the critical AC load.
Bypass: If the UPS must be taken out of service for maintenance or repair, the static transfer switch shall transfer the load to the bypass source. The transfer process shall cause no interruption in power to the critical AC load.
Off-Battery: If the battery only is taken out of service for maintenance, it is disconnected from the rectifier/charger and inverter by means of an external disconnect circuit breaker. The UPS shall continue to function and meet all of the specified steady-state performance criteria, except for the power outage backup time capability.
