4.3. OPERATING PRINCIPLE.

This manual describes the commissioning and operating of

the Uninterruptible Power Supplies -UPS- from SLC TWIN

PRO2 series as equipments that can operate in parallel or

single configurations, without needing a centralised bypass.

The UPS's from SLC TWIN PRO2 series assure an optimal

protection for any critical load, keeping the power supply to

the loads inside the stated parameters, with either no break

in case of mains failure nor fluctuations. The wide range of

available models (from 4kVA up to 20kVA), allows adapting

the model to the end-user needs.

Thanks to the used technology, PWM (Pulse Width Modula-

tion) and the double conversion, the UPS's from SLC TWIN

PRO2 series are compact, cold, silent and with high efficiency.

The double conversion principle cancels any fluctuations from

the electrical mains. A rectifier converts the alternating cur-

rent from mains in to direct current, and it keeps the optimal

charge level to the batteries and at the same time feeds the

inverter; the inverter generates a alternating current sin-

ewave, which is ready to feed the loads constantly. In case

of power outage at the UPS input, the batteries supply the

energy to the inverter.

The UPS design and manufacturing from SLC TWIN PRO2

series has been done in accordance with the international

standards.

These equipments allow their upgrading by connecting addi-

tional equipments of the same power rate in parallel, in order

to get redundancy -i.e.: N+1- or increasing the power of the

system.

Therefore, this series has been designed to maximize the

availability of the critical loads in order to protect them

against voltage fluctuations, power outages and blackouts,

which are present in the energy distribution lines. This is the

main aim of the UPS's from de SLC TWIN PRO2 series.

This manual applies to the standardised models stated in Tab. 1.

4.3.1. Main features.

•True on-line technology of double conversion and inde-

pendent output frequency from mains.

•Output power factor 1 in single phase input equipments and

0.9 in three phase input ones. Pure sinewave shape, suit-

able for almost all type of loads.

•Input power factor > 0.99 and high efficiency (> 0.94 for

single phase input or > 0.92 for three phase input). So, it

is got a high economy saving and lower installation cost

-wiring-, as well as low input current distortion, so the per-

turbances to mains are reduced.

•Great adaptability to the worst conditions of input mains.

Wide input voltage range, frequency range and wave

shape, so it is avoided the excessive use of the battery,

which has limited energy.

•Available battery charger up to 8 A in order to decrease the

battery recharge time.

•Parallel redundant N+X connection, in order to increase

the reliability and flexibility. 3 equipments in parallel as

maximum.

•Selectable of the High Efficiency Mode > 0.97 -ECO-MODE-.

Energy saving, which means economic saving for the end-

user.

•Possibility to start it up with no mains or discharged bat-

teries. Be careful, with this last point, because the back up

time will be reduced, as much as they are more discharged.

•The smart battery management technology is very useful

to extend the lifetime of the batteries and to optimise their

recharging time.

•RS232 or USB communication ports as standard.

•Digital input to start up-shutdown the equipment.

•Digital output for «Error or fault».

•Remote emergency power off -EPO-.

•User-friendly interface between user and equipment by

means of the control panel with LCD and LED.

•Optional available cards to improve the communication ca-

pabilities.

4.4. OPTIONS.

Depending on the selected configuration, the equipment can

include any of the following options:

4.4.1. Isolation transformer.

The isolation transformer, provides a galvanic isolation that al-

lows isolating the output from input completely and/or even

change the neutral regime.

The fact of having an electrostatic shield between the primary

and secondary windings of the transformer provides a high at-

tenuation level of the electrical noise.

Physically, the isolation transformer can be located at the input

or output of the UPS, depending on the particular specifications

of the installation (equipment power supply and/or loads, type

of loads,...).

In parallel systems, it is not possible to operate with separate

isolation transformers for each UPS. So it is necessary to have

only one transformer for the complete parallel system of the

suitable power rate.

In any case, it will always be supplied as a separate item to the

own UPS enclosure.

4.4.2. External manual bypass manual.

The purpose of this option is to isolate electrically the equip-

ment from mains and critical loads with no break. Therefore the

maintenance or reparation tasks can be done in the equipment

with no breaks in the power supply of the protected system and

at the same time undue risks to the technical staff are avoided.

The basic difference, between this option and the integrated manual by-

pass in the own UPS enclosure is its better operability, because it allows

the total disconnection of the UPS from the installation.

4.4.3. Communication card.

In the rear side of the UPS there is a slot, which allows in-

serting any of the following communication cards.

4.4.3.1. Integration into IT networks by means of the SNMP

adaptor.

The large-scale IT systems based in LANs and WANs, which

integrates servers with different operating systems, must in-

clude an easy control by the management of the system. This

feature is get by the use of the SNMP adaptor, which is ac-

cepted by the main manufacturers of software and hardware.

The connection of the UPS with the SNMP is internal, mean-

while the connection between the SNMP and the IT network is

done by means of a RJ45 10 base connector.

4.4.3.2. RS485 Modbus.

Many times, the large-scale IT systems based in LANs and

WANs require communication by means of a industrial standard

protocol with any part or component integrated inside the IT

network.

One of the most used industrial protocols in the market is the

MODBUS protocol. The SLC TWIN PRO2 series is ready to be

integrated in this kind of environments either by means of the

“SNMP mini card” adaptor or the RS485 Modbus card which is

described in the documentation of the optional.

4.4.3.3. Dry contacts.

•As an option, the UPS has a dry contact card, which pro-

vides digital signals, with maximum applicable voltage and

current of 240 V AC or 30 V DC and 1A.

•This port provides a dialogue between the equipment and

other machines or devices, thanks to the supplied dry con-

tacts, which includeds a terminal strip located in the own

card, with only one common terminal for all of them.

All the dry contacts are normally opened, preset from fac-

tory, being able to set them independently, according to the

information supplied with the option.

•The most common use of these type of ports is to provide

the needed information to the closing file software.

•For information, contact with our T.S.S. or our closest dis-

tributor.

1 communication cable.

2 cables for parallel connection, current bus and control

signal.

1 female connector to connect into the external EPO. It in-

cludes an isolated cable as a «bridge» mode to close the

circuit (already fitted in).

•Once the reception is finalised, it is better to pack the UPS

again till its commissioning in order to protect it against pos-

sible mechanical impacts, dust, dirt, etc...

•The equipment packaging has wooden pallet, cardboard

or wooden enclosure depending on the requirements, ex-

panded polystyrene corners, plastic bag and polyethylene

wrap, all of them are recyclable materials. When they has

to be disposed proceed in accordance with the laws in

force.

It is advised to keep the packaging, for 1 year at least.

5.1.2. Storage.

•The storage of the equipment will be done in a dry and

cool room, protected from rain, dust, water jets or chemical

agents. It is advisable to keep each equipment and battery

unit inside their original packaging, because they have

been designed to assure the maximum protection during

transport and storage.

•Those equipments, which include Pb-Ca batteries,

the recharging period of time according to the storage

temperature, stated in Tab. 2 from EK266*08 document, must

be respected. Otherwise the warranty will be cancelled.

•After this period of time, connect the equipment with the

batteries unit,if any, and start it up according to the instruc-

tions described in this user's manual and charge them for

12 hours.

In parallel systems, to charge only the batteries, it is not needed

to make the connection among the equipments. Proceed as com-

plete single equipments to charge them.

•Later on, shutdown the equipment, disconnect it and pack

the UPS and batteries in their original packaging again, by

writing down the new recharging battery date in any docu-

ment or over the own packaging as a record mode.

•Do not store the devices, where the temperature exceeds

over 50º C or below –15º C, because the electrical features

of the batteries can be affected.

5.1.3. Unpacking.

•The equipment packaging has wooden pallet, cardboard

or wooden enclosure depending on the requirements, ex-

panded polystyrene corners [EPS] or polyethylene foam

[EPE], plastic bag and polyethylene wrap, all of them are

recyclable materials. When they has to be disposed pro-

ceed in accordance with the laws in force.

It is advised to keep the packaging, in case it was to be

used in future.

5.1.4. Transport till its location.

•All the equipments have four casters (with mechanical

lock), so it is easy to move it till its right location once it

is unpacked.

Nevertheless, if the reception area is far from the installa-

tion location, it is recommended to move the UPS by means

of a pallet jack or the most suitable transport medium,

keeping in mind the distance between both points.

In case of long distances, it is recommended to move the

equipment with its packaging till the installation location

and finally unpack it there.

5.1.5. Location, immobilising and considerations.

5.1.5.1. Location for single units.

•As an example, Fig. 14 shows the typical case depending

on the model. The equipment based on one single phase

(UPS with batteries fitted in) and UPS with the batteries in

a separate case or extended back up times.

For a correct cooling, the space around the equipment

must be free of obstacles. Respect the minimum dis-

tances stated in Tab. 1 from section 1.2.1 of the docu-

ment EK266*08 (Safety Instructions), where the figures

of each dimension A, B, C and D are stated according to

the power rate of each equipment.

For the battery cases, keep the same distances as the

same UPS enclosure.

It is recommended to leave 75 cm additional free in each

side, for the possible tasks of the (T.S.S.) or the needed

power cable length to facilitate the movement of the

equipment to the front.

For extended back up times, with more than one case, it

is recommended to put one at each side of the equipment

and in case of a higher quantity proceed in the same way

alternately.

•Equipments with three phase input TWIN/3 PRO2

To unpack the equipment, follow the sequence of figures

8 to 10 (cut the wraps of the cardboard enclosure and

remove it from the top as it was a cover or in case of

wooden packaging use the needed tools; remove the

corners and plastic bag. The UPS will be naked over the

pallet.

The equipment is fixed to the wooden pallet by means

of metallic support with «L» shape (stabilising support),

fixed at each side of the equipment.

Remove the screws that fix the equipment to the pallet

by means of the support [see Fig. 12 and 13].

Before downloading the equipment from the

pallet, the stabilising supports have to be removed

first, otherwise they will make difficult the downloading

procedure and they will be bent when impacting with

the wooden ramp, being able to cause damages to the

own structure of the equipment.

Put the ramp as figure 11 shows and download the

equipment from the pallet.

5.1.5.2. Location for parallel systems.

•As an example of three equipments in parallel, Fig. 15

shows them with their battery case. For systems with two

equipments in parallel and/or more battery modules pro-

ceed accordingly in the same way.

Likewise, obviate the illustration of the battery modules

when they are not available.

The numbering of the equipments in Fig. 15 doesn't have

any purpose less than number each unit in the illustration.

•For a correct cooling, the space around equipment must be

free of obstacles. Respect the minimum distances stated in

Tab. 1 from section 1.2.1 of the document EK266*08 (Safety

Instructions), where the figures of each dimension A, B, C

and D are stated according to the power rate of each equip-

ment.

For the battery cases, keep the same distances as the UPS

enclosure.

5.1.5.3. Immobilising the equipment.

•The equipment has casters with brakes. Once the equip-

ment is placed in its final location, to immobilise the equip-

ment is recommended to lock them.

5.1.5.4. Preliminary considerations, before connecting the

equipment.

•In the description of this manual, there is reference to con-

nect terminals and manoeuvring switches, which are only

available in some models or equipments with extended

back up times. Ignore those operations related with your

unit in case it does not have them.

•Regarding the installation instructions of a single equip-

ment or parallel system, follow and respect them.

•The switchgear or external manual bypass panel:

At least, the installation will have one protection for

the short-circuit in the power supply line of the UPS.

For single equipments, it is recommended to install an

external manual bypass panel, equipped with input,

output and manual bypass protections.

For parallel systems, it is essential to install a switch-

gear or manual bypass panel. The switches of the panel

must allow isolating one UPS from the system, in case

of any failure and allow feeding the loads with the rest

ones, either during the preventive maintenance tasks or

during the failure and its reparation.

•An external manual bypass panel for a single unit or parallel

system can be purchased under request.

Also, it can be manufactured by yourself by keeping in mind

the version and configuration of the available equipment

or system and the attached documentation in the CD-ROM

or el Pen Drive as regards to «Recommended installation

diagram».

•The documentation delivered together with this us-

er's manual and/or CD-ROM or Pen Drive, includes

information regarding the «Recommended installation dia-

gram» for each input and output configuration. This docu-

mentation shows the wiring circuit diagrams, as well as the

protection and cross cable sizes that are connected to the

equipment, considering the nominal voltage. All the figures

are calculated for a total maximum cable length of 30 m

between the switchgear panel, equipment and loads.

For longer lengths, correct the cross cable sections in

17

accordance with the Regulations or standards of the

country, in order to avoid dropping voltages.

In the own documentation and for each configuration,

it is available the information for «N» equipments in

parallel, as well as the features of the «Backfeed pro-

tection».

•In parallel systems, the length and cross cable sec-

tion that connect the switchgear or manual bypass

panel with each UPS must be the same for all of them, with

no exception.

•The cross cable section must be always according to the size

of the own terminals of the switches, in such way that the

wire is embraced properly, in order to guarantee an optimal

contact between both parts.

•The data in the nameplate of the equipment states the

nominal current only, as the safety standard EN-IEC

62040-1 states. To calculate the input current, it has been

considered the power factor and the own efficiency of the

equipment.

The overload conditions are considered as a non-perma-

nent and exceptional operating mode, so it will not be kept

in mind when sizing the protections. Do not connect devices

to the UPS terminals or outlets that could overload it, like

motors.

•TWIN/3 PRO2 models (three phase input and single

phase output), the input current of R phase and Neutral

is higher than the other two lines/phases when the UPS

works on bypass mode (loads supplied from mains directly). Pay

attention to the nameplate data to size the two corresponding

cables.

•In case of adding peripheral parts at the UPS or parallel

system input or output, like transformers or autotrans-

formers, the stated currents in their own nameplates

must be also considered, in order to use the suitable cross

cable section, by respecting the Local and/or National Low

Voltage Electrotechnical Regulation.

•When a UPS or parallel system, as standard, as an option

or installed by yourself, at the input line or at the output or

in both, include a galvanic isolation transformer, a Residual

Current Device must be installed at its output, in order to

protect against electrical shocks and indirect contacts, be-

cause its intrinsic feature of isolation will prevent the trip-

ping of the protections fitted in the primary winding of the

transformer.

•As a reminder, all the isolation transformers installed or

supplied from factory has the output neutral connected to

the protective earth by means of a cable bridge between

the neutral and PE terminals. In case of requiring an iso-

lated output neutral, remove this cable bridge, by taking

the stated cautions in the local and/or national low voltage

regulations.

•This equipment is ready to be installed in grids with

power distribution systems TT, TN-S, TN-C or IT,

keeping in mind the particular features of each neutral re-

gime and the electrical regulations of the destination

country.

•The switches, RCD and circuit breaker of a three phase input

equipment connected to an IT power distribution system

must break the NEUTRAL apart from the three phases.

•TWIN PRO2 has a terminal strip to install an external emer-

gency power off button -EPO-. Only one device has to be

fitted in, in order to break the energy to the loads in any

operating mode.

5.1.5.5. Preliminary considerations for batteries and their

protections before connecting the equipment.

•All the standard UPSs include batteries in the same enclo-

sure, less those models called B0 and B1. For the standard

UPSs, the battery protection is done by internal fuses and

they are not accessible by the end-user.

Also, the battery modules have protection and in this case they

are doubled. Once are internal by means of fuses and not ac-

cessible by the end-user and the second ones by means of a

two poles circuit breaker or fuses.

•IMPORTANT FOR THE SAFETY: In case of installing the

batteries by yourself, the battery set must have a two

poles circuit breaker or fuses switch, with the size stated in

Tab. 2.

•Inside the battery module there are DANGEROUS VOLT-

AGES with the risk of electrical shock it involves, so it is

classified as RESTRICTED ACCESS AREA.

•Do not handle the battery fuse holder or circuit breaker

switch when the equipment is turned ON. These

switches cannot be turned ON/OFF with load.

•When the power supply to the equipment or parallel

system is broken and it is foreseen an out of service of

the equipment for long time, the equipment must be shutdown

completely.

•The battery circuit is not isolated from the input

voltage. So, dangerous voltages can be found be-

tween the battery terminals and the earth. Check that there

is not any kind of voltage, before doing any action over the

terminals.

5.1.5.6. Connection parts.

•Any electrical connection of the equipment is done through

the rear side of the equipment:

Input and output connection terminals. Remove the

fixing screws of the protection cover and the own cover,

to have access to the terminals.

Connect the UPS with the battery modules. Depending

on the power rate of the UPS, it has a connector or ter-

minals.

–Equipment and battery module with connector. Re-

move the screws and the «BATTERY CONNECTOR»

cover. These covers will not be put back again,

keep them.

–Equipment with battery terminals. They are beside

the AC power terminals.

–Battery module with terminals. Remove the screws

and protection cover.

Communication connectors:

–DB9 type for RS232.

–USB type for communication as a peripheral.

–Digital input and output.

–Terminal strip for external EPO button.

–Auxiliary contact for manual bypass switch.

Control connections for parallel systems, by DB15 connec-

tors and analogical signal for current sharing. Remove the

screws and the protection cover to have access to them.

Slot to insert one of the optional communication cards.

Remove the fixing screws and the plastic cover to allow its

inserting.

•When finalising the connection tasks, the cover or

covers and their fixing screws will be put back be-

fore commissioning the equipment, in order to avoid acci-

dents due to direct contacts.

•It is recommended the use of crimping pin terminal in all

the cable ends connected to terminals, in particular the

power ones (input, output and batteries).

•Check the correct torque in the screws of the terminals.

5.2. CONNECTION.

•The terminal protection cover leaves a slot for the cable

entering to the power terminal strip. The cover and/or en-

closure frame has drills that allows fixing the connection

cables in order to avoid unexpected cable pulling due to the

consequences that it could have.

5.2.1. Connection of the input terminals to AC power

supply.

•As this is an equipment with protection against elec-

trical shocks of class I, it is essential to connect the

main protective earth cable [ ]. Connect this cable to the

terminal before supplying voltage to the input terminals.

•Pay attention to the «Recommended installation» document

in section 5.1.5.4., which states the cross cable section,

protection size and features, etc, ...

Fig. 16. «Backfeed protection» circuit diagram.

•In accordance with the EN-IEC 62040-1 safety standard the

installation must have an automatic «Backfeed protection»

system, i.e.: a contactor, which prevents power supply or

dangerous energy at the UPS input during a power outage

[seer Fig. 16].

The standard applies to single or three phase input equip-

ments as well as both single units and UPSs in a parallel

systems.

•Do not connect any line between the «Backfeed pro-

tection» and UPS, because the safety standard

would not be met.

•Warning labelling must be placed in all the primary power

switches, installed far from the equipment, in order to warn

the electrical maintenance staff about the presence of a

UPS in the electrical circuit.

The labelling will include the following text or an equiva-

lent one:

Before operating in the circuit.

•Isolate the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).

•Check that the voltage among the terminals, PE

included.

Risk of UPS voltage backfeed.

•Connect the input cables to the respective power terminal

strip depending on the available equipment [see Fig. 17].

For parallel systems, it will be needed to repeat the connec-

tions that go from the switchgear panel to each equipment.

Connection to a single phase input:

Connect the power supply cables to the R and N input ter-

minals, by respecting the phase rotation of the neu-

tral and phase stated in the labelling of the equipment

and this manual. Otherwise it can be damaged.

19

In 15 and 20 kVA equipment, the R phase cable will be

connected to the plate and the neutral cable to terminal N.

Connection to a three phase input:

Connect the power supply cables to the R, S T and N input

terminals, by respecting the phase rotation of the

phases and neutral stated in the labelling of the equip-

ment and this manual. Otherwise it can be damaged.

In case of discrepancies between the labelling and the in-

structions of this manual, the first ones will always prevail.

5.2.2. Connection of load/s to the output terminals or output 1.

•As this is an equipment with protection against elec-

trical shocks of class I, it is essential to connect the

main protective earth cable [ ]. Connect this cable to the

terminal before supplying voltage to the input terminals.

•Pay attention to the «Recommended installation» document

in section 5.1.5.4., which states the cross cable section,

protection size and features, etc, ...

•Connect the loads to the output power terminals or output

1, U and N, by respecting the rotation of the phase and

neutral stated in the labelling of the equipment and this

manual [see Fig. 17]. Otherwise the UPS and/or load/s can

be damaged.

•For parallel systems, it will be needed to repeat the connec-

tions that go from the switchgear panel to each equipment.

In case of discrepancies between the labelling and the in-

structions of this manual, the first ones will always prevail.

•As regards to the output protection to be fitted in the

switchgear or manual bypass panel, it is recommended to

split the output power into four different lines. Each one of

them will have a circuit breaker sized to the suitable figure.

This type of energy distribution at the output will allow that

in case of tripping one of them due to a problem in one of the

connected loads in that line, will not affect to the other ones.

Because the rest of loads will have their power supply con-

tinuously, because the only protection that will trip will be

the affected one by the short-circuit in their loads.

•The single phase input equipments up to 10 kVA, apart from

the power terminal strip, also has two IEC outlets protected

by a 10 A breaker.

These outlets are connected in parallel with the output ter-

minals, so it is important to pay attention to the following

consideration:

The size of the output protection stated in the rec-

ommended installation document, is done for

the loads connected at the output power terminals.

This protection will be adapted by the fitter or end-user

to the installation in case part of the power is con-

nected to the IEC outlets, otherwise it is possible that

the input of the UPS will not trip, although the overload

alarm in the UPS is triggered.

5.2.3. Connection of the load/s to the output terminals 2

(TWIN/3 PRO2 from 8 to 20 kVA only).

•Models from 8 to 20 kVA with three phase input has a

second set of output power terminals labelled as output

2, which supply voltage from the same source of output 1,

from the inverter or static bypass.

By means of the control panel the output 2 can be set as

Non-critical loads (set to «On»).

•When setting the output 2 to Non-critical loads, the

back up time is reserved for the most critical loads,

which are connected to output 1, by breaking the power

supply of the output 2 during power outages.

• The size of the output protection stated in the recom-

mended installation document, is the sum of both

output 1 and 2, which does not exceed the power rate of

the UPS in any case.

In case of using both terminal strips, the installer or

end-user will fit the suitable protection at each output,

otherwise the input protection of the equipment could

trip, apart from triggering the overload alarm.

•In parallel systems check that the Output 2 is set to the

same figure in all of them, in order to avoid problems.

•Connect the loads to the output power terminals 2, U and

N, by respecting the rotation of the phase and neutral

stated in the labelling of the equipment and this manual [see

Fig. 17]. Otherwise the UPS and/or load/s can be damaged.

5.2.4. Connection with the external battery module and

extended back up times.

•As this is an equipment with protection against elec-

trical shocks of class I, it is essential to connect the

main protective earth cable [ ]. Connect this cable to the

terminal before supplying voltage to the input terminals.

•Respect the instructions stated in this section and

those ones referred to the batteries in the EK266*08

safety instructions, section 1.2.3, because risk of electrical

shock exists, which can cause even the death.

•Before starting the connection procedure between

the battery module or modules and the equipment,

check that the UPS input switch and the battery protection in

the module or modules are turned « Off».

•The battery module has been designed for its equip-

ment. Do not modify the battery capacity or quantity

that makes it.

Also, it exists risk of electrical or electrocution shock due to

the high internal DC voltage, which can cause serious inju-

ries for the health and life.

•Do not connect the battery modules between them or with

UPSs with different DC voltage (figure stated in the rear side

of each equipment).

•Some battery modules have an additional charger, which

means making some additional work.

They can be identified, because they include an IEC male

connector, circuit breaker and cooling grid

•Together with the module, it is supplied a power cord with

an IEC female connector in one end and Schuko plug in the

other end.

•The installation must have a wall outlet, schuko type, pro-

tected by a circuit breaker of 6 A, in order to feed the charger

with 230 V AC.

•Those equipments with more than one battery module of

this type, each one of them must have the Schuko wall

output with its corresponding protection.

•Insert the cable into the IEC connector of the battery module

and the schuko plug into the wall outlet of 230 V AC.

5.2.6. Connection of the main protective earth and

bonding earth .

•As this is an equipment with protection against elec-

trical shocks of class I, it is essential to connect the

main protective earth cable [ ]. Connect this cable to the

terminal before supplying voltage to the input terminals.

•Make sure that all the loads connected to the UPS are only

connected to its bonding earth stud . The fact of not lim-

iting the connection this bonding earth of the load or loads

and battery module or modules to this single point, will

break backfeed loops of earth that will decrease the quality

of the energy supplied.

•Those terminals labelled as bonding earth , are joined

among them to the main protective earth stud and to the

ground of the equipment.

•Never and under no circumstances disconnect the

protective earth cable from the building and/or UPS.

5.2.7. EPO terminals (Emergency Power Off).

•The UPSs has two terminals to install a remote Emergency

Power Off button -EPO-.

•The equipment is delivered from factory with the EPO circuit

closed -NC-. So, the UPS will break the output when the

emergency power off button opens the circuit:

Or by removing the own female connector from the

equipment, because this connector includes a cable as

a bridge mode, which closes the electrical circuit [see

Fig. 19-A].

Or when pressing the external button, which belongs to

the end-user and it is installed between the terminals

of the connector [see Fig. 19-B]. The connection of the

button will be normally closed -NC-, so it will open the

electrical circuit when pressing it.

•By means of the communication software, the inverse func-

tion can be set.

Less particular cases, it is better to not use this type of con-

nection, because in case of one of the cables were cut, the

EPO will not break the output voltage.

On the other hand, the use of the normally closed contact ,

the cut cable would be detected immediately, because the

power supply to the loads would be broken.

•To restore the normal operating of the UPS, it is needed to in-

sert the connector with the cable as a bridge mode again in the

equipment or deactivate the EPO button. The equipment will

be turned ON automatically.

5.2.8. Terminals for digital Input and Output.

•The equipment has a terminal strip of four terminals for a

digital input and output [see Fig. 20].

The «Start up-Shutdown» digital input. When the equipment

is turned ON, when applying a voltage between 5 and 12 V

DC, it is shutdown.

The static bypass is enabled from factory. In this

situation, when the inverter is shutdown the

output terminals will supply voltage through the in-

ternal static bypass.

Disable the bypass function through the control panel,

when it is required to break the output when the shut-

down order has been triggered.

Error or fault dry contact. Any error or fault of the UPS

will trigger the digital output (-NO- dry contact of 24V

DC 1A). (ATTENTION to the applied voltage and current

to the contact).

5.2.9. Terminals for the manual bypass auxiliary

contact.

•The manual bypass switch of the equipment has a micros-

witch located under its mechanical lock. This contact is nor-

mally opened and it is extended till a terminal strip located

in the rear side of the equipment [see Fig. 21] and internally

connected with the own UPS control.

•The manual bypass panels supplied under request, they

include a terminal strip with two terminals connected in

parallel with the normally opened auxiliary contact of the

manual bypass switch of the own panel. The auxiliary con-

tacts of the manual bypass are advanced to its closing.

•The connection between the auxiliary contact of the panel

and the UPS or UPSs must be in parallel. Therefore, in case

any of the auxiliary contacts closes the circuit will trigger

SLC TWIN PRO2 UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY (UPS)USER'S MANUAL

22 SALICRU

the command to shutdown the inverter, so the equipment

will supply output voltage through the static bypass, unless

it is disabled by means of the control panel, which in that

case would break the load feeding.

•In parallel systems, the manual bypass switch of the

switchgear panel will have a terminal strip for each

equipment. Under no circumstances joint the contacts

of the different UPSs among them, because the ground of

the UPS control would be joined.

•In case of buying the manual bypass panel from

other sources, check that it has the stated auxiliary

contact and connect it to the terminal strip of the UPS or

UPSs in parallel systems. The auxiliary contact type must

be advanced to its closing.

•As safety measures, it is ESSENTIAL, to connect

the terminals strips of the UPS, and even for the

loads, with the ones of the manual bypass panel with the

same function. Therefore, it will be avoided any wrong han-

dling of the manual bypass switch/es when the UPS or

UPSs are turned ON, which could cause a total or partial

failure of the installation and/or loads.

5.2.10. Parallel connection.

5.2.10.1. Introduction to the redundancy.

N+X is usually the most reliable power structure. N means the

minimum quantity of equipments that the total load needs; X

means the quantity of redundant equipments, that is to say, the

quantity of faulty UPSs that the system can allow at the same

time. As higher is the X, the more reliable will be the system.

For those situations, where the reliability is the most important,

N+X will the optimal mode.

Up to 3 equipments can be connected in parallel to set a shared

output and redundant in power.

5.2.10.2. Parallel installation and operating.

•The communication line -COM- means a low safety

voltage circuit.

To preserve the quality of them, they must be installed

separate from other lines with dangerous voltages (energy

distribution line).

•Parallel connection bus. Use the 15 pins DB15 connectors

and shielded cable bundle to joint 3 equipments maximum.

Each bundle has a male and female connectors at its end,

which have to be connected between two correlative equip-

ments. It is essential to close the loop of the parallel bus

among the equipments.

23

The length of the parallel cable is 1.5 metres and it can't be

extended under no circumstances, due to the risk of interfer-

ences that it would mean.

Fig. 22 shows an installation of two equipments in parallel.

For three UPSs proceed in the same way to close the com-

munication bus and current sharing circuits.

•Bus connection of the signal of current. Joint the equip-

ments, by using the cable bundle with connectors in both

ends and connecting them in the connectors of both correla-

tive equipments as Fig. 22 shows. Finally, close the bus loop

between the last and first equipment.

The length of the cable is 1.5 metres and it can't be extended

under no circumstances, due to the risk of interferences that

it would mean.

Fig. 22 shows an installation of two equipments in parallel.

For three UPSs proceed in the same way to close the com-

munication bus and current sharing circuits.

•Parallel installations must have a switchgear panel with sep-

arate input and output protections for each UPS, apart from

a manual bypass switch with mechanical lock, see Fig. 23.

For more information, about the descriptions referred to the

manual bypass and the indications of the «Recommended

installation» see section 5.1.5.4.

•Respect the stated procedures in the previous sections, for

the input and output connections of each equipment.

•For those equipments with extended back up time, respect

the stated procedures for the battery modules, which are de-

scribed in the previous sections.

•In parallel systems, where the length and cross sec-

tion of the cables that go from the switchgear panel

to each UPS and from the UPS to the switchgear panel will

be the same for all them, with no exception.

In the worst conditions, the following deviations must be

strictly respected:

When the distance between the parallel UPSs and the

switchgear panel is less than 20 metres, the length

difference among the input and output cables of each

equipment must be lower than 20%.

When the distance between the parallel UPSs and the

switchgear panel is over 20 metres, the length difference

among the input and output cables of each equipment

must be lower than 10%.

5.2.11. Communication port.

5.2.11.1. RS232 and USB ports.

• The communication line -COM- means a low safety

voltage circuit. To preserve the quality of them, they

must be installed separate from other lines with dangerous

voltages (energy distribution line).

•The RS232 and USB interface are used by the monitoring

software and firmware updating.

•It is not possible to use both ports (RS232 and USB) at the

same time.

•Tab. 4 shows the pin-out of the RS232 signal in the DB9

female connector. The RS232 is a serial data port, so an

important amount of information can be sent through a

communication cable of 3 wires.

•The USB communication port is compatible with the USB

1.1 protocol for the monitoring software.

5.2.13. Software.

•Download the free software - Viewpower.

Viewpower is a UPS monitoring software, which has a user

friendly interface for monitoring and control. This software,

in case of power outage provides an auto Shutdown for a

system based on several computers. With this software,

the end-users can monitor and control any UPS hosted in

the same IT network, by means of the communication port

(RS232 or USB), no matter the distance among them.

5.2.14. Considerations before commissioning with the

loads.

•It is recommended to charge the batteries for 12

hours at least before using the UPS for first time.

To do it, supply the input of the equipment and turn the

input switch «On». The battery charger will be auto-

matically started up.

For battery modules.

Those models with extended back up times with one or

more battery modules, the fuse or battery switch has to

be turned «On» too.

•Although the equipment can work without charging the bat-

teries for stated 12 h, the risk of a long power outage for

the first operating hours must be evaluated, because the

back up time of the UPS will be lower.

•Do not start up the equipment and loads before section 6

states it.

Nevertheless, when it is started up, it will be done gradu-

ally, in order to avoid possible issues, at least in the first

UPS start up.

•In case of connecting inductive loads with high consump-

tion, apart from the sensitive loads, like laser printers or

CRT monitors; their worst inrush current will be kept in

mind in order to avoid blocking the equipment.

Depending on the equipment, for this type of loads, which

are considered NON-CRITICAL, the equipment has a pro-

grammable terminal strip. Depending on the setting of that

terminal strip, the power supply will be broken or not in

case of power outage.

6.1. COMMISSIONING.

6.1.1. Checking before commissioning.

•Make sure that all connections have done properly with the

correct torque, by respecting the labelling of the equipment

and the instructions of section 5.

•Check that the UPS switch and battery module or modules

are turned -«Off»-.

•Make sure that all the loads are turned «Off».

Shutdown the loads before starting up the UPS and

turn on the loads one by one when the UPS is started

up only. Before shutting down the UPS, check that all the

loads are turned «Off» and out of service.

•It is very important to proceed in the established order.

•See figures 1 to 3 for UPS views.

•Fig. 23 shows a conceptual switchgear panel with manual

bypass for a parallel system, which illustrates only one

equipment by adapting the quantity of switches.

6.2. START UP AND SHUTDOWN OF THE UPS.

6.2.1. UPS start up with AC mains present.

•Check that the power supply connection is correct.

from switchgear or manual bypass panel to «On». In case

the panel includes output switch turn it «On» too.

•Turn the battery switch «On» (models B0 and B1).

•Turn the input switch of the UPS «On».

The output terminals will be supplied through the

internal static bypass of the equipment.

The fan or fans, depending on the model, will be turned on.

Next the main start screen will be displayed after the initial

equipment test.

•Press over the start up key for more than 0.5 seconds,

the acoustic alarm will beep for 1 sec. and the UPS will be

started up.

•After a few seconds, the UPS will be on «Normal mode». If

the input AC voltage is wrong, the UPS will shift to «Battery

mode», with no break in the power supply to the output

terminal strip.

•Start up the load or loads, without exceeding the nominal

power rate of the equipment.

6.2.2. UPS start up with no AC mains (Cold start).

equipment test.

It is necessary to press the ‘ON’ button for a second time,

about 5 to 7 seconds after the first press, for longer than

0.5 seconds.

•After a few seconds, the UPS will be on «Battery mode».

so it has to be considered: their charge level, the remaining

back up time and the risk that means to operate on this

operating mode.

If the AC mains is restored, the UPS will shift to «Normal

mode», with no break at the power supply of the output

terminals.

•Start up the load or loads, without exceeding the nominal

power rate of the equipment.

of the UPS or turn «Off» the input and output protections

located in the switchgear distribution panel.

After a few seconds, the LCD panel is off and the equip-

ment will be out of service.

6.2.4. UPS shutdown with no AC mains.

•Shutdown the load or loads.

•Press the key for more than 0.5 seconds to shutdown the

inverter. The acoustic alarm will beep for 1 sec. The equip-

ment will break the power supply of the output terminals.

After a few seconds, the LCD panel is off and the equip-

ment will be out of service.

•To leave the equipment completely isolated, turn the input

and output switches from switchgear panel «Off».

6.3. MANUAL BYPASS SWITCH (MAINTENANCE).

The internal manual bypass in the SLC TWIN PRO2 UPS is

very useful, but a wrong handling can cause irreversible con-

sequences for both UPS and connected loads. Therefore, it is

important to respect the manoeuvring on the switches as it is

described in the following sections.

In case of mains failure, it is not possible to operate on this

mode.

6.3.1. Shifting to maintenance bypass.

•The procedure to shift from normal mode to maintenance

bypass is the same for single unit and parallel system, less

in the quantity of actions to make:

In case of handling the switches in the different

order as the stated, it will break the power

supply to the loads and even can cause damage

to the UPSs.

For a single equipment.

–Press the start up key for than 0.5 sec. in order to

shutdown the inverter. The acoustic alarm will beep

1 sec. The equipment will shift to «Bypass mode».

For a parallel system.

–Press the start up key for than 0.5 sec. in all UPSs

in order to shutdown the inverter. The acoustic

alarm will beep 1 sec. The equipments of the par-

allel system will shift to «Bypass mode».

Shift the equipment or equipments to manual bypass

as follows:

1. Remove the mechanical lock from bypass manual

switch from switchgear panel and turn it «On».

2. Remove the manual bypass switch cover, located

in the rear side of the UPS and turn it to «BYPASS»

position.

In parallel systems proceed in the same way in all

the equipments.

 Keep in mind that on «Bypass mode» or with the

manual bypass switch on «BYPASS» position,

the loads will remain exposed to the voltage and fre-

quency fluctuations from mains, blackouts and power

outages, so it was possible choose a day with the lowest

failure probability (days with no fluctuations, days with

no storms,...) and speed up the process.

Turn the input circuit breaker switch of the equipment

to «Off».

In parallel systems proceed in the same way in all the

equipments.

Turn all the input and output circuit breakers of the

switchgear panel to «Off».

The system is completely shutdown and out of service

and loads are supplied by means of the manual bypass

switchgear panel.

Make the needed maintenance tasks.

6.3.2. Shifting to normal mode.

•The procedure to shift from maintenance bypass to normal

mode is the same for single unit and parallel system, less

in the quantity of actions to make:

 In case of handling the switches in the different

order as the stated, it will break the power

supply to the loads and even can cause damage

to the UPSs.

Turn the input and output circuit breaker switches from

switchgear panel to «On».

Turn the input switch of the own equipment to «On».

In parallel systems proceed in the same way in all the

equipments.

Turn the manual bypass switch, located in the rear side

of each equipment to «UPS» position and put back their

protection covers.

In parallel systems proceed in the same way in all the

equipments.

Turn the manual bypass switch of the switchgear panel

to «Off» and put back its mechanical lock.

In order to avoid wrong handling, the mechan-

ical lock, protection covers of the manual by-

pass and their fixing screws have to put back.

For a single equipment.

–Press the start up key for more than 0.5 sec, the

acoustic alarm will beep 1 sec. The equipment will

start up.

For a parallel system.

–Press the start up key for more than

0.5 sec. in all UPSs and each one of them will be

started up, finally the parallel system will be on

«Normal mode».

Load or loads are protected by the parallel system

again.

6.4. PARALLEL SYSTEM OPERATING

•To operate with parallel systems, in order to avoid prob-

lems, check that the output 2 of each UPS is set to the same

parameter in all of them.

•The operating described hereafter, is for equipments with

the standard setting preset from factory.

•Check that the load or loads and/or the output circuit

breaker switches are turned «Off».

•Turn the input circuit breaker switches from switchgear

panel or manual bypass to «On» and the own input switches

in each UPS too.

The UPSs supply AC voltage by means of their internal

static bypass of each unit. Check if any alarm has been trig-

gered in the LCD panel. Measure the output voltage at the

output terminals of each UPS separately, in order to check

if the voltage difference is lower than 1 V among them. In

case the voltage difference is higher than 1 V, check the

wiring and the previous installation instructions.

•If the difference voltage is lower than 1 V, press over the

start up key for more than 0.5 seconds in all UPSs and

each one of them will be started up and all the UPSs will

shift to «Normal mode».

Measure the output voltage a the output terminals of each

UPS separately, in order to check if the voltage difference is

lower than 0.5 V among them. In case the voltage difference

is higher than 1 V, the UPSs must be set (contact with the

T.S.S.).

•Continue with the procedure if everything is correct only.

Press the start up key for than 0.5 sec. in all UPSs and

each one of them will be shutdown.

Turn all the output switches from switchgear or manual by-

pass panel to «On». The output terminals of the switchgear

panel will be supplied by means of the internal static by-

pass of the equipment.

•Press the start up key for more than 0.5 sec. in all UPSs and

each one of them will be started up and all the UPSs will

shift to «Normal mode».

•Start up the load or loads.

•Do not leave one of the UPSs with no neutral con-

nection as regard to the rest one. The neutral of all

UPSs must be joined among them, either through the input

or through the output. Do not open the input and output

circuit breakers of the switchgear panel of one UPS at the

same when the parallel system is turned On, otherwise the

UPS can be damaged and the loads will be shutdown.

6.5. HOW UPGRADE THE PARALLEL SYSTEM WITH A

NEW UPS OR DOWNGRADE TO SINGLE MODE.

•To do this manoeuvring, the parallel system must have a

manual bypass panel for a parallel system.

In case of not having it, it has to be foreseen a complete

27

shutdown of the system and loads connected to it.

•The steps here stated are to add an equipment in a parallel

system of two units. To upgrade a single unit to a parallel

system of two equipments proceed in the same way.

•The switchgear panel will have the corresponding input and

output switches for each UPS apart from the manual bypass

one. Otherwise it will be needed to adapt the panel or pur-

chase a new one, if it has not been foreseen previously.

•Due that the own parallel bus communication has to be

changed in order to integrate the new UPS into the par-

allel system (cable bundle with DB15 connectors), it will be

needed to shift the power supply of the loads to manual by-

pass.

Proceed as follows:

Press the start up key for than 0.5 sec. in all UPSs in

order to shutdown the inverter. The acoustic alarm will

beep 1 sec. The equipments of the parallel system will

shift to «Bypass mode».

Transfer the equipments to manual bypass as follows:

1. Remove the mechanical lock of the manual bypass

switch from switchgear panel and turn it «On».

2. Remove the protection cover of the manual bypass

switch, which is located in the rear side of the

equipment. Put all the manual bypass switches

from UPS to «BYPASS» position.

 Keep in mind that on «Bypass mode» or with the

manual bypass switch on «BYPASS» position,

the loads will remain exposed to the voltage and fre-

quency fluctuations from mains, blackouts and power

outages, so if it was possible choose a day with the

lowest failure probability (days with no fluctuations, days

with no storms,...) and speed up the process.

Turn the own input circuit breaker switches of each

equipment to «Off».

Turn all the input and output switches from switchgear

panel to «Off».

•Before adding the new TWIN PRO2 UPS to the system,

make the needed steps, in order to leave it in the same

situation as the rest ones (input switch turned «Off» and

manual bypass switch with no cover and turned to «BY-

PASS»).

•Add the new UPS to the system, by attending the procedure

stated in section 5.2.10.2, for the parallel connection.

•Disconnect the communication bus between the first and

last equipment, and reconnect it by including the new UPS.

It is compulsory to close the loop of the communication bus

for its correct operating.

Carry out the same operation for the current signal bus.

•Turn the input circuit breaker switch of each UPS from

switchgear panel to «On».

•Turn the input circuit breaker switches from each UPS to

«On».

Turn the internal manual bypass switch of each UPS to UPS

position.

The output switches of each UPS from switchgear panel

must be turned off.

Put the locking cover of the manual bypass switch of each

UPS.

The UPSs supplies output voltage by means of the internal

static bypass of each unit. Check if any alarm has been

triggered in the LCD panel in any UPS. Measure the output

voltage a the output terminals of each UPS separately, in

order to check if the voltage difference is lower than 1 V

among them. In case the voltage difference is higher than 1

V, check the wiring and the previous installation instructions.

•If the difference voltage is lower than 1 V, press over the

start up key for more than 0.5 seconds in all UPSs and

each one of them will be started up and all the UPSs will

shift to «Normal mode».

Measure the output voltage a the output terminals of each

UPS separately, in order to check if the voltage difference is

lower than 0.5 V among them In case the voltage difference

is higher than 1 V, the UPSs must be set (contact with the

T.S.S.).

•Continue with the procedure if everything is correct only.

Press the start up key for than 0.5 sec. in all UPSs and

each one of them will be shutdown.

Turn all the output switches from switchgear or manual

bypass panel to «On». The output terminals of the switch-

gear panel will be supplied by means of the internal static

bypass of the equipment, the same voltage as the manual

bypass line

•Turn the manual bypass switch from switchgear panel to

«Off» and put the mechanical lock back to avoid possible

accidents.

•To avoid inappropriate manoeuvring, it is better to

put back the mechanical lock and the manual bypass

covers and their fixing screws.

•Press the start up key for more than 0.5 sec. in all UPSs and

each one of them will be started up and all the UPSs will

shift to «Normal mode».

•The load or loads are protected by the parallel system

again.

6.6. HOW TO REPLACE A FAULTY UPS FROM THE

PARALLEL SYSTEM.

•The steps to follow for replacing a UPS in a parallel system

based on two or three equipments are exactly the same as to

upgrade the system, less bridging the gaps of the type of action

to make. Proceed as it is described in section 6.4.

8. MAINTENANCE, WARRANTY AND

SERVICE.

8.1. BATTERY MAINTENANCE.

•Pay attention to any safety instructions stated in EK266*08

manual section 1.2.3 referred to batteries.

•The useful lifetime of the batteries depends on the ambient

temperature and other factors like the quantity of charging

and discharging cycles and the deep discharges done.

Its design lifetime is between 3 and 5 years if the ambient

temperature is between 10 and 20 ºC. Under request, other

typology and/or design lifetime batteries can be supplied.

•The UPS from SLC TWIN PRO2 series only needs a min-

imum maintenance. The used batteries in standard models

are lead acid, sealed, VRLA and maintenance free. The only

requirement is to charge them regularly in order to extend

their lifetime.

Meanwhile, the UPS is connected to mains, started up or

not, it will keep the batteries charged and will guarantee a

protection against overcharge and over discharge.

8.1.1. Notes to replace and install the batteries.

•In case of replacing any interlink wire, purchase original

parts through the authorised distributors or service centres

in order to avoid over heating or sparks due to the risk that

would entail the use of not enough size.

•Do not short both battery poles + and -, exists risk of elec-

trocution or fire.

•Make sure that there is not any voltage before handling the

batteries. The battery circuit is not isolated from the input,

so dangerous voltages between battery and earth can exist.

•Although the input circuit breaker is turned off, the internal

parts of the UPS are still connected to the batteries, so dan-

gerous voltages are present.

So, before doing any maintenance or reparation, the in-

ternal battery fuse must be removed and/or the connectors

between them and the own UPS too.

As the battery circuit is not isolated from the input, so dan-

gerous voltages between battery and earth or ground (any

metallic part of the cabinet, supports and accessories in-

cluded) can exist.

•Batteries have dangerous voltages. The maintenance and

battery replacement must be done by qualified personnel

and familiarized with them. No other persons must manipu-

late them.

8.2. UPS TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE.

If the UPS doesn't work properly, check the information dis-

played in the LCD panel.

Try to solve the problems by following the steps described in

table 15. If the problem persists, consult with our Technical Ser-

vice and Support T.S.S..

When necessary contact with our Technical Service and Sup-

port T.S.S., and provide the following information:

•UPS model and serial number.

•Date of the problem.

•Complete description of the problem, including the informa-

tion supplied by the LCD or leds or alarm status.

•Power supply condition, type of load and load percentage,

ambient temperature, cooling conditions.

•Battery information (capacity and quantity) and if the equip-

ment is a (B0) or (B1).

•Other informations considered as important.

9.2. GLOSARIO.

•AC.- Se denomina corriente alterna (abreviada CA en

español y AC en inglés) a la corriente eléctrica en la que

la magnitud y dirección varían cíclicamente. La forma de

onda de la corriente alterna más comúnmente utilizada

es la de una onda senoidal, puesto que se consigue una

transmisión más eficiente de la energía. Sin embargo,

en ciertas aplicaciones se utilizan otras formas de onda

periódicas, tales como la triangular o la cuadrada.

•Bypass.- Manual o automáticamente, se trata de la unión

física entre la entrada de un dispositivo eléctrico con su

salida.

•DC.- La corriente continua (CC en español, en inglés DC, de

Direct Current) es el flujo continuo de electrones a través

de un conductor entre dos puntos de distinto potencial. A

diferencia de la corriente alterna (CA en español, AC en in-

glés), en la corriente continua las cargas eléctricas circulan

siempre en la misma dirección desde el punto de mayor

potencial al de menor. Aunque comúnmente se identifica la

corriente continua con la corriente constante (por ejemplo

la suministrada por una batería), es continua toda corriente

que mantenga siempre la misma polaridad.

•DSP.- Es el acrónimo de Digital Signal Processor, que significa

Procesador Digital de Señal. Un DSP es un sistema basado

en un procesador o microprocesador que posee un juego de

instrucciones, un hardware y un software optimizados para

aplicaciones que requieran operaciones numéricas a muy alta

velocidad. Debido a esto es especialmente útil para el proce-

sado y representación de señales analógicas en tiempo real: en

un sistema que trabaje de esta forma (tiempo real) se reciben

muestras (samples en inglés), normalmente provenientes de un

conversor analógico/digital (ADC).

•Factor de potencia.- Se define factor de potencia, f.d.p.,

de un circuito de corriente alterna, como la relación entre la

potencia activa, P, y la potencia aparente, S, o bien como el

coseno del ángulo que forman los factores de la intensidad

y el voltaje, designándose en este caso como cos f, siendo f

el valor de dicho ángulo.

•GND.- El término tierra (en inglés GROUND, de donde

proviene la abreviación GND), como su nombre indica, se

refiere al potencial de la superficie de la Tierra.

•Filtro EMI.- Filtro capaz de disminuir de manera notable la

interferencia electromagnética, que es la perturbación que

ocurre en un receptor radio o en cualquier otro circuito eléc-

trico causada por radiación electromagnética proveniente

de una fuente externa. También se conoce como EMI por

45

sus siglas en inglés (ElectroMagnetic Interference), Radio

Frequency Interference o RFI. Esta perturbación puede in-

terrumpir, degradar o limitar el rendimiento del circuito

•IGBT.- El transistor bipolar de puerta aislada (IGBT, del inglés

Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) es un dispositivo semicon-

ductor que generalmente se aplica como interruptor con-

trolado en circuitos de electrónica de potencia. Este dispositivo

posee la características de las señales de puerta de los tran-

sistores de efecto campo con la capacidad de alta corriente y

voltaje de baja saturación del transistor bipolar, combinando

una puerta aislada FET para la entrada e control y un transistor

bipolar como interruptor en un solo dispositivo. El circuito de

excitación del IGBT es como el del MOSFET, mientras que las

características de conducción son como las del BJT.

•Interface.- En electrónica, telecomunicaciones y hard-

ware, una interfaz (electrónica) es el puerto (circuito físico)

a través del que se envían o reciben señales desde un sis-

tema o subsistemas hacia otros

•kVA.- El voltampere es la unidad de la potencia aparente

en corriente eléctrica. En la corriente directa o continua es

prácticamente igual a la potencia real pero en corriente

alterna puede diferir de ésta dependiendo del factor de

potencia.

•LCD.- LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) son las siglas en inglés

de Pantalla de Cristal Líquido,dispositivo inventado por

Jack Janning, quien fue empleado de NCR. Se trata de un

sistema eléctrico de presentación de datos formado por 2

capas conductoras transparentes y en medio un material

especial cristalino (cristal líquido) que tienen la capacidad

de orientar la luz a su paso.

•LED.- Un LED, siglas en inglés de Light-Emitting Diode

(diodo emisor de luz) es un dispositivo semiconductor

(diodo) que emite luz casi monocromática, es decir, con un

espectro muy angosto, cuando se polariza en directa y es

atravesado por una corriente eléctrica. El color, (longitud de

onda), depende del material semiconductor empleado en

la construcción del diodo, pudiendo variar desde el ultra-

violeta, pasando por el espectro de luz visible, hasta el in-

frarrojo, recibiendo éstos últimos la denominación de IRED

(Infra-Red Emitting Diode).

•Magnetotérmico.- Un interruptor magnetotérmico, o

disyuntor magnetotérmico, es un dispositivo capaz de in-

terrumpir la corriente eléctrica de un circuito cuando ésta

sobrepasa ciertos valores máximos.

•Modo On-Line.- En referencia a un equipo, se dice que

está en línea cuando está conectado al sistema, se en-

cuentra operativo, y normalmente tiene su fuente de ali-

mentación conectada.

•Inversor.- Un inversor, también llamado ondulador, es un cir-

cuito utilizado para convertir corriente continua en corriente

alterna. La función de un inversor es cambiar un voltaje de

entrada de corriente directa a un voltaje simétrico de salida de

corriente alterna, con la magnitud y frecuencia deseada por el

usuario o el diseñador.

•Rectificador.- En electrónica, un rectificador es el el-

emento o circuito que permite convertir la corriente alterna

en corriente continua. Esto se realiza utilizando diodos

rectificadores, ya sean semiconductores de estado sólido ,

válvulas al vacío o válvulas gaseosas como las de vapor de

mercurio. Dependiendo de las características de la alimen-

tación en corriente alterna que emplean, se les clasifica

en monofásicos, cuando están alimentados por una fase de

la red eléctrica, o trifásicos cuando se alimentan por tres

fases. Atendiendo al tipo de rectificación, pueden ser de

media onda, cuando solo se utiliza uno de los semiciclos de

la corriente, o de onda completa, donde ambos semiciclos

son aprovechados.

•Relé.- El relé o relevador (del francés relais, relevo) es un

dispositivo electromecánico, que funciona como un inter-

ruptor controlado por un circuito eléctrico en el que, por

medio de un electroimán, se acciona un juego de uno o

varios contactos que permiten abrir o cerrar otros circuitos

eléctricos independientes.

•SCR.- Abreviatura de «Rectificador Controlado de Silicio»,

comúnmente conocido como Tiristor: dispositivo semicon-

ductor de 4 capas que funciona como un conmutador casi

ideal.

•THD.- Son las siglas de «Total Harmonic Distortion» o «Dis-

torsión armónica total». La distorsión armónica se produce

cuando la señal de salida de un sistema no equivale a la señal

que entró en él. Esta falta de linealidad afecta a la forma de

la onda, porque el equipo ha introducido armónicos que no es-

taban en la señal de entrada. Puesto que son armónicos, es

decir múltiplos de la señal de entrada, esta distorsión no es tan

disonante y es menos fácil de detectar.
