System Description 5 1.4 Control System Features A key control feature necessary for successful momentary or continuous tie operation of two UPSs is the dynamic load current sharing function. A key design requirement for max imizing multiple system reliab ility and inve rter availability in tied configurations is assuring maximum syst em inde pende[...]

System Description 6 1.5.2 Moment ary Tie Operatio n See Figure 3 . Momentary Tie operation provides manually initiated, uni nterrupted transfers of a critical lo ad bus between two otherwise independent multi-module UP S s ystems. This topology permits indi vidual UPS shutdown for maintenance while its load conti nues to be supplied by another UPS[...]

System Description 7 The Tie Control Unit also contains interl ock and mo nitoring circuitry necessar y to assure successful transfers of load between UPS systems. These consist of the following : 1. Sync Verification circuit ry, similar to the circuitry employed in each UPS, provides the sync check function in two independent modes: a. Phase Diffe[...]

System Description 8 Synchronizing activity takes place automatically once the preferred sour ce is chosen and a manually initiated “SYNCH RONIZE SYSTEMS” signal is given. Visual indicators show that the systems are synchronizin g and when the sys tems are ready for the ma nually initiated, automatical ly controlled paralleling sequence. Contin[...]

System Description 9 1.5.5 Modes of Operation See Figure 4 . The Power-Tie Uninterruptible Po wer System is designed to operate in the following modes: 1. Normal - Each load bus is fe d from its respective UPS and the tie breaker is open. E ach inverter is synchronized to its respective bypass sou rce. Each load is supplied by it s inverter(s), wit[...]

Operation Description 14 2.4 Combined Loads on One System from Continuous T ie Operation To combine two loads onto o ne system, pe rform a LOAD TRANSFER BETWEEN UPS SYSTEMS ( 2.3 - Load Transfers Between UPS Systems ). The operator selects the system he wants to main- tain both loads using the TRANSFER LOAD TO buttons. The operator can then proceed[...]

Operation Description 15 Line Sync Signal The Line Sync signal is sent betw een UPS systems when they are in parallel. Isolatio n amplifiers iso- la te the Li ne Sy nc s ig na l le ve ls between the two systems. The Line Sync signal synchronizes the UPS systems to the Primary Bypass line. By maintainin g sync with the Primary Bypa ss, uninterrupted[...]
