SPS.ADVANCE RT2 UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY (UPS)USER'S MANUAL
10 SALICRU
4.3. OPERATING PRINCIPLE.
This user manual describes the installation and mode of
operation of SPS.ADVANCE RT2 series UPSs for the power
range between 800 and 3000 VA.
These line-interactive pure sine-wave output devices are
designed to protect your most sensitive electronic devices
against power supply problems including undervoltages,
spikes, prolonged voltage drops, line noise and mains failures.
SPS.ADVANCE RT2 devices are powered by the mains and
supply AC power at their output through the IEC sockets
installed on the back of the device. If mains supply is correct,
the load or loads are powered from it through the stabiliser
featuring buck-boost technology.
If mains supply is absent or the voltage and/or frequency are
out of the acceptable range, the load or loads will be powered
from the batteries through the inverter for a certain period of
time depending on the model, battery charge level and load
itself connected to the output.
In all of the models, it is possible to increase the standard
backup of the devices by connecting additional modules
and/or optimising the recharge time of the accumulators by
incorporating higher performance chargers (B1).
The entire range of power ratings enables:
•The serial and USB ports for communication and control
of the device. The serial port supports communications
directly with a server and the protocol is in accordance
with an RS232 interface, which also has dry-contact signals
(interface to optocouplers).
•RJ-45 connectors for protecting the modem / ADSL / fax line.
•An EPO connector for optional, external installation by the
user of an emergency stop button.
•A smart slot in which one of the following communication
cards can be installed:
Integration into computer networks using an SNMP
adapter.
Modbus RS485.
Interface to relays.
This manual applies to the standardised models shown in Tab.
1.
4.3.1. Notable features.
•Pure sine-wave output waveform, suitable for almost all
types of load.
•Possibility of starting the device without mains power
supply or discharged battery (cold start). Be careful with this
aspect because the greater the batteries are discharged,
the more the backup will be reduced.
•Great adaptability to the worst conditions of the mains.
Wide input voltage, frequency and waveform ranges, thus
avoiding excessive dependence on limited battery power.
•If mains supply is present and voltage and frequency are
within the range, the built-in stabiliser featuring buck-boost
technology powers the loads.
•Possibility of fast and easy backup extension by adding
battery modules.
•Availability of additional battery chargers to reduce battery
recharge time (B1).
•Intelligent battery management technology is very useful for
extending the life of accumulators and optimising recharge times.
•Control panel with LCD display available on all models.
•Remote emergency power off control (EPO).
•Serial communication port: RS232 and USB.
•Availability of optional connectability cards to improve
communication capabilities.
•Protection against overload, short circuit and overtempera-
ture.
•Device that can be installed as a tower or rack using the
accessories supplied. The control panel can be rotated to
adapt to either format.

4.4. OPTIONAL EXTRAS.
Depending on the configuration chosen, the device may include
any of the following options:
4.4.1. Isolation transformer:
The isolation transformer provides galvanic isolation in order
to completely isolate the output from the input and/or change
neutral mode.
The placement of an electrostatic screen between the primary
and secondary windings of the transformer provides a high
level of electrical noise attenuation.
The isolation transformer can be physically placed at the input
or output of the UPS depending on the technical conditions of
the whole system (device supply voltage and/or load voltage,
characteristics or their type, etc.).
In any event, it will always be supplied as a peripheral
component external to the device itself in a separate box.
4.4.2. Communication card.
The UPS features a slot at the rear for inserting one of the
following communication cards.
4.4.2.1. Integration into computer networks using an SNMP adapter.
Large computer systems based on LANs and WANs that
integrate servers in different operating systems must provide
the system manager with ease of control and administration.
11
This facility is obtained through an SNMP adapter, which
is universally supported by the main software and hardware
manufacturers.
Connection of the UPS to the SNMP is internal while that of
the SNMP to the computer network is made through a RJ45 10
base connector.
4.4.2.2. Modbus RS485.
Large computer systems based on LANs and WANs often
require that communication with any element that is integrated
into the computer network be made through a standard
industrial protocol.
One of the most used standard industrial protocols on the
market is the MODBUS protocol. The SPS.ADVANCE RT2 series
can also be integrated into these types of environments using
a Modbus RS485 card.
4.4.2.3. Interface to relays.
•The UPS has, as an option, an interface to relays card
that provides digital signals in the form of potential-free
contacts, with a maximum applicable voltage and current
of 240 V AC or 30 V DC and 1A.
•This communication port enables dialogue between the
device and other machines or devices through the relays
supplied in the terminal block arranged on the same card,
with a single common terminal for all of them.
From the factory, all contacts are normally open and can
be changed one by one, as indicated in the information
supplied with the optional extra.
•The most common use of these types of ports is to provide
the necessary information to the file-closing software.
•For more information, contact our T.S.S. or our nearest
distributor.
4.4.3. Extendable guide kits for mounting in a rack cabinet.
An extendable and unique guide kit is available for all device
models, valid for any kind of rack-type cabinet.
These guides allow the installation of any device unit and
possible battery modules in the case of extended backups, as if
it were a rack in its respective cabinet.

•The device should be stored in a dry, ventilated room and
protected from rain, dust, and water or chemical splashes.
It is advisable to keep each device and battery unit in its
original packaging, as it has been specifically designed
to ensure maximum protection during transportation and
storage.
•For devices that contain Pb-Ca batteries, the
charging times indicated in Tab. 2 of document
EK266*08, determined by the temperature to which they
are exposed, must be respected, otherwise the warranty
may be invalidated.
•After this period, connect the device to the mains together
with the battery unit if applicable according to the instructions
described in this manual and charge for 12 hours.
•Then disconnect and store the UPS and batteries in their
original packaging, noting the new date for recharging
the batteries on a document as a record or even on the
packaging itself.
•Do not store the devices where the ambient temperature
exceeds 50ºC or drops below -20ºC, as this may cause
degradation of the electrical characteristics of the batteries.
5.1.3. Unpacking.
•The packaging of the device consists of a cardboard box,
expanded polystyrene (EPS) or polyethylene foam (EPE)
corners, polyethylene cover and strapping, all of which are
recyclable materials; consequently, if it requires disposal,
it must be carried out in accordance with current laws. We
recommend keeping the packaging in case it needs to be
used in the future.
•Proceed as follows:
Cut the straps around the cardboard box.
Remove the accessories (cables, brackets, etc.)
Remove the device or battery module from the box with
the help, if necessary, of a second person depending
on the weight of the model or using appropriate
mechanical means.
Remove the protective corners from the device and the
plastic bag.
Do not leave the plastic bag within the reach of
children to avoid danger of suffocation.
Inspect the device before proceeding and, in the event
of finding damage, contact the supplier / distributor or,
failing that, our firm.

5.1.4. Transport to the site.
•It is advisable to move the UPS using the most suitable
means for this. If the distance is considerable, it is
recommended to transport the device in its packaging to
the installation site and then unpack it.
5.1.5. Siting, immobilising and considerations.
•All SPS.ADVANCE RT2 devices are designed for rack
mounting (horizontal installation in 19” cabinets) or tower
mounting (vertical installation) as with their optional
battery modules.
Follow the instructions indicated in relation to either of the
two possibilities, according to the particular configuration
of your device.
•Fig. 4..Fig. 8 show, by way of example, illustrations of a
device with or without battery module. These illustrations
provide help and guidance on the steps to follow, but the
instructions are not intended to refer to a single model,
although, in practice, the actions to be carried out are
always the same for all of them.
•For all instructions regarding connections, refer to section
5.2.
5.1.5.1. Rack-type mounting in a 19” cabinet.
•Proceed as follows (see Fig. 4:
Using the supplied screws, fix the two adapter angles
for use as handles on each side of the UPS, respecting
its mounting orientation.
To install the device in a rack cabinet, it is necessary
to have internal lateral guides for use as supports.
Alternatively, and upon request, we can supply universal
slides for use as guides, for installation by the user.
Fig. 4. Rack-type mounting in a 19” cabinet.
Mount the guides at the required height, ensuring
correct tightening of the fixing screws and appropriate
fitting in the machining, according to each case.
Place the device onto the guides and insert it all the
way to the back.
Depending on the device model and weight, and/or
whether it is installed in the upper or lower part of the
cabinet, it is recommended that two people carry out
the installation operations.
Fix the UPS to the cabinet frame using the screws
supplied with the handles.
5.1.5.2. Rack-type mounting in a 19” cabinet with backup extension (battery
module).
•This section describes a device with one battery module.
For more battery modules, repeat the same procedure for
each of them.
•Proceed as follows (see Fig. 5):
Using the supplied screws, fix the two adapter angles
for use as handles on each side of the UPS, respecting
its mounting orientation. Repeat the same procedure
for the battery module.
Fig. 5. Rack-type mounting in a 19” cabinet with backup

we can supply universal slides for use as guides, for
installation by the user.
Mount the guides at the required height, ensuring cor-
rect tightening of the fixing screws and appropriate fit-
ting in the machining, according to each case.
Place the device onto the guides and insert it all the
way to the back. Proceed in the same way for the bat-
tery module.
Depending on the weight of each unit according to the type
of device and battery module, and/or whether it is installed
in the upper or lower part of the cabinet, it is recommended
that two people carry out the installation operations.
Fix the UPS and the battery module to the cabinet frame by
means of the screws supplied with the respective handles.
5.1.5.3. Vertical tower-type mounting.
•Take the 4 pieces of plastic supplied with the device and
join them together in twos to obtain two bases.
•Place the UPS upright between the two bases at a distance
of 70 mm from each end (see Fig. 6).
Fig. 6. Vertical tower-type mounting.
5.1.5.4. Rotation of the control panel with LCD display.
Fig. 7. Rotation of the control panel with LCD display on the
plastic front trim.
•The device is initially set up at the factory for installation as
a rack. To facilitate the reading of messages on the display
when the device is installed vertically, it is advisable to ro-
tate the control panel clockwise by 90º (see Fig. 7).
•Proceed as follows:
Insert fingertips into the recesses of the plastic trim
around the display and pull outwards.
Rotate the control panel with LCD display 90º to the
right with respect to its initial position and insert it back
into the front.
•Likewise, it is recommended to reverse the rotation of the
control panel if a device arranged as a tower needs to be
installed as a rack.
In this case, the rotation of the control panel will be anti-
clockwise.
15
5.1.5.5. Vertical tower-type mounting with backup extension (battery
module).
•The description in this section refers to a device with a
single battery module. For a greater number, proceed in a
similar way.
•Take the 4 plastic pieces in the form of an angle supplied
with the UPS and the two extensions supplied with the bat-
tery module, and install them to obtain two bases to hold
the device and the battery module.
•Place the UPS and battery module upright between the two
bases (see Fig. 8) and at a distance of 70 mm from each
end, as shown in Fig. 6.
•Rotate the control panel according to section 5.1.5.4.
Fig. 8. Vertically mounted tower-type model with backup exten-
sion (battery module).
5.1.5.6. Preliminary considerations before connection.
•Check that the information on the device’s nameplate is
that required for installation.
•All devices in the range feature a cord with plug for the input
and IEC connectors for the output, as connecting elements
for power. Other connections are made through connectors,
including connection of the device to the battery module.
•Thermal control of these devices is carried out with the
passage of forced air from the front to the rear.
The front surface and about 15 cm on the rear side should
be left free of obstructions to facilitate the free circulation
of air for ventilation.
•Protection board:
It will have a type-B differential circuit breaker and a short
circuit protection (C-curve circuit breaker) for the UPS’s
input line.
As for size, they will be at least the current indicated on the
nameplate of the UPS.
•Only the rated current as indicated by the EN-IEC 62040-1
safety standard is printed on the nameplate of the device.
For the calculation of the input current, the power factor and
the equipment's own performance have been considered.
Overload conditions are considered a non-permanent and
exceptional working mode.
•The cross section of the input line cables is determined
by the current indicated on the nameplate of each device,
in compliance with local and/or national Low-Voltage
Electrotechnical Regulations.
•If peripheral input and/or output elements, such as
transformers or autotransformers, are added to the UPS,
the currents indicated on the nameplates of these elements
must be taken into consideration when determining
appropriate cross sections, in compliance with local and/or
national Low Voltage Electrotechnical Regulations.
•When a device incorporates a galvanic isolation
transformer as an optional extra or installed
independently, either at the input, output or both, it must be
fitted with protection against indirect contact (differential
circuit breaker) at the output of each transformer, since, due
to its own insulation properties, it will prevent the tripping
of the protections placed on the primary of the isolation
transformer in case of electric shock on the secondary
(output of the isolation transformer).
•We remind you that all the isolation transformers installed
or factory supplied, have the output neutral grounded
through a bridge between the neutral terminal and ground.
If the isolated output neutral is required, this bridge must be
removed, taking the precautions indicated in the respective
local and/or national low voltage regulations.
•This device is suitable for installation in networks
with TT, TN-S, TN-C or IT power distribution
systems, taking into account at the time of installation the
particularities of the system used and the national electrical
regulations of the destination country.
•All of the models in this series have an input polarity
detector (phase-neutral), which activates a
modulated audible alarm every 2 seconds and displays the
message on the ‘SF’ display in the event of a fault.
When the circumstance arises, disconnect the plug from
the mains socket and rotate it 180º.
If the same alarm condition is maintained, it will be a two-
phase power line signal or installation without neutral
referenced to earth. Contact our T.S.S. or the distributor
before connecting loads to the output.
•The ADVANCE RT2 features terminals for the installation
of an external emergency power off button (EPO) or, failing
that, a single device must be installed to cut the power
supply to the loads in any operating mode.
5.1.5.7. Preliminary considerations before connection, regarding the
batteries and their protections.
•SPS.ADVANCE RT2 devices incorporate the batteries in the
same box as the device, except for B0 and B1 models.
The UPS’s battery protection is internal by means of fuses
and is therefore not accessible to the user.
The battery modules have a circuit breaker accessible to
the user and a second internal protection consisting of a
non-accessible fuse.
•IMPORTANT FOR SAFETY: If batteries are installed
independently, the accumulator group must be fitted
with a bipolar circuit breaker or disconnect fuse of the size
indicated in Tab. 2.
SPS.ADVANCE RT2 UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY (UPS)USER'S MANUAL
16 SALICRU
•Inside the battery module, there are HAZARDOUS
VOLTAGES with risk of electric shock, so it is classified as a
RESTRICTED ACCESS AREA.
•Do not handle the battery circuit breaker when the
device is running.
•If the mains power of the device is cut for longer
than a simple intervention and it is expected that it
will be out of service for a prolonged period time, the
system must be shut down completely.
•The battery circuit is not isolated from the input
voltage. Dangerous voltages can occur between the
terminals of the battery group and the earth. Check that
there is no input voltage before working on the battery
module connectors.
5.2. CONNECTIONS.
•A bad connection or operation can cause faults in the UPS
and/or the loads connected to it. Read the instructions in
this manual carefully and follow the steps indicated in the
order established.
•The devices can be installed and used by personnel
without specific training by simply using this
manual.
•It should never be forgotten that a UPS is a generator
of electrical energy, and as such, the user must take
all necessary precautions against direct or indirect contact.
•All of the device’s connections, including those
related to control (interface, EPO, etc.), must be
made without mains power present and the UPS set to ‘Off’.
•To connect a device to an optional battery module, or
between modules, or to install an optional card in the slot,
it is necessary to remove its respective metal protective
cover screwed to the UPS. Remove the screws and cover.
5.2.1. Connection of the input.
•As the device has Class I protection against electric
shock, it is obligatory and essential for the AC input
socket to have the earth conductor ( ) installed. Check
that this is the case before continuing.
•Take the device’s power cable, plug the female IEC
connector into the UPS and the Schuko plug at the other
end of the cable into an AC power socket.
5.2.2. Connection of the IEC output connectors.
•All UPSs have ‘n’ variable IEC output connectors according
to the power rating of the device:
0.8 to 2 kVA models.
2 groups of 4 x 10A IEC connectors identified as OUTPUT
and PROGRAMMABLE OUTLETS (P1), the second group of
which is programmable at disconnection for non-critical
loads through the control panel or ViewPower software.
3 kVA model.
The other models incorporate a 16 A IEC output
connector in the OUTPUT connector group.
Loads can be connected to all of the IEC
connectors provided that the rated power of the
device is not exceeded and the limitation of the
programmable IEC socket group is considered,
otherwise untimely cuts will occur in the powering of
the loads connected to them.
•If, in addition to the more sensitive loads, it is necessary
to connect high-consumption inductive loads, such as for
laser printers or CRT monitors, the starting up of these
peripherals will need to be taken into account to prevent
the device from crashing.
We do not recommend connecting loads of this type due to
the amount of power they absorb from the UPS.
5.2.3. Connection to the optional battery module (backup
extension).
•Failure to comply with the instructions in this
section and Safety Instructions EK266*08
carries a high risk of electric shock and even death.
•SPS.ADVANCE RT2 devices incorporate the batteries in the
same box as the device, except for B0 and B1 models.
•IMPORTANT FOR SAFETY: If batteries are installed
independently, the accumulator group must be fitted
with a bipolar circuit breaker or disconnect fuse of the size
indicated in Tab. 2.

Tab. 2. Protection features between device and battery module.
•Before starting the connection process between the
battery module or modules and the device, check that
the UPS and the loads are set to ‘Off’ and that the battery
voltage of all of them is the same, without exceptions.
Also, when the batteries are installed by the user
independently, the protection fuse or isolator must be
deactivated.
•Connection of the battery module to the UPS is made by
means of a cable featuring polarised connectors at both
ends and supplied with the first one.
Plug the connector at one end of the cable into the
corresponding socket on the SPS.ADVANCE and the one on
the other end into the battery module (see Fig. 9).
In the same way, battery modules can be linked in parallel
since each of them has two connectors.
All of the connectors must be secured to their units by
means of the screws that held the protective cover of each
connector to the UPS or battery module.
•As the device has Class I protection against electric
shock, it is obligatory and essential to connect the
earth conductor ( ).
Connect the earth cable to the corresponding points
identified, either terminal or screw (see Fig. 9).
If the interconnection cable has a mesh, the earth connection
will be linked between units through it by fixing the metal
supports of the connectors to the UPS and battery module
or modules using the screws indicated in the previous point.
17
•Each battery module is independent for each device.
Two devices must not be connected to the
same battery module.
•Fig. 9 shows the connection of a 3 kVA device in a rack
arrangement with two battery modules. For a larger number,
proceed in a manner similar to those shown in the illustration.
Fig. 9. Connection to battery modules.
5.2.4. Terminals for EPO (emergency power off).
•The UPSs have two terminals for the installation of an
external emergency power off (EPO) output button.
•The device is dispatched from the factory with its EPO
circuit set to closed (NC) by default. In other words, the
UPS will cut the output power supply, emergency power
off, when the circuit is opened:
Either by removing the female connector from the socket
where it is inserted. This connector has a cable connected
as a jumper that closes the circuit (see Fig. 10-A).
Or by pressing the button external to the device
belonging to the user installed between the terminals
of the connector (see Fig. 10-B). The connection on the
button must be in the normally closed contact (NC), so
it will open the circuit when activated.
The reverse functionality can be selected through the
communications software and control panel.
Except for specific cases, we advise against this type
of connection in view of the purpose of the EPO button,
since it will not act upon an emergency request if either
of the two cables that run from the button to the UPS is
accidentally cut.
By contrast, this anomaly would immediately be detected
in a closed EPO circuit, with the inconvenience of an
unexpected cut in the powering of the loads, but a
guarantee of effective emergency functionality.
•To recover the normal operating state of the UPS, it is
necessary to insert the connector with the jumper in its
receptacle or deactivate the EPO button. The device will
be operational.

5.2.5. Communication port.
5.2.5.1. RS232 and USB port.
•The communications line -COM- constitutes a very
low voltage safety circuit. To preserve the quality
must be installed separately from other lines carrying
dangerous voltages (power distribution line).
•The RS232 and USB interfaces are useful for the monitoring
software and updating the firmware.
•It is not possible to use both the RS232 and USB ports at
the same time.
•The DB9 connector supplies the RS232 signals and the
normally open (NO) potential-free contacts using optocouplers.
The maximum voltage and current applicable to these
contacts is 30V DC and 1A.
Also, there is a «Shutdown» input that allows turning off
the inverter, when a voltage between 10 a 12 V is applied
for 1 second at this input.
•The RS232 port consists of the transmission of serial data
in such a way that a large amount of information can be
sent through a communication cable with only 3 wires.
•The USB port is compatible with the USB 1.1 protocol for
communication software.

•Remove the protective cover from the device’s slot.
•Take the corresponding electronic unit and insert it into the
reserved slot. Make sure that it is properly connected, for
which it is necessary to overcome the resistance caused in
the connector located in the slot.
•Make the necessary connections in the terminal block or
connectors available according to each case.
•For more information, contact our T.S.S. or our nearest
distributor.
5.2.7. Protection against voltage spikes for the modem / ADSL / fax,
etc., line.
•The communications line -COM- constitutes a very
low voltage safety circuit. To preserve the quality
must be installed separately from other lines carrying
dangerous voltages (power distribution line).
•Connect the main line for the modem / ADSL / fax, etc., to
the RJ45 connector of the device, identified as ‘Input’.
•Connect the modem / ADSL / fax, etc., to the RJ45 connector
of the device, identified as ‘Output’.
5.2.8. Software.
Download of free ViewPower software. ViewPower is
a UPS monitoring software which provides a user-friendly
interface for monitoring and control. It features an auto
shutdown function for systems consisting of several PCs
in case of power failure. The software enables users to
monitor and control any UPS in the same LAN through an
RS232 or USB communications port, regardless of how far
away they are from each other.
•Installation procedure:
Go to the web page:
http://support.salicru.com
Select the required operating system and follow the
instructions described on the web page to download
the software.
Fig. 12. View of the ViewPower monitoring software’s main
screen.
5.2.9. Considerations before start-up with connected loads.
•It is recommended to charge the batteries for at
least 12 hours before using the UPS for the first time.
For this, it will be necessary to supply voltage to the
device. The battery charger will work automatically.
For the battery modules.
For the models with batteries external to the device or
backup extension modules, it will be necessary to turn
the fuse or circuit breaker of the batteries to ‘On’.
•Although the device can operate correctly without charging
the batteries for the specified 12 hours, the risk of a
prolonged power cut during the first hours of operation and
the UPS’s available backup time should be assessed.
•Do not start up the device and loads completely until
indicated in Chapter 6.
When it is done, however, it should be carried out gradually
to avoid possible difficulties, if not at the first start-up.
•If, in addition to the more sensitive loads, it is necessary
to connect high-consumption inductive loads, such as for
laser printers or CRT monitors, the starting up of these
peripherals will need to be taken into account to prevent
the device from crashing.
For this type of load considered NON-PRIORITY, a group
of programmable sockets is available depending on the
model. Depending on the programming of these, the power
supply may or may not be affected in the event of mains
failure.

•Make sure that all of the connections have been made
correctly, following the instructions on the labelling of the
device and in Chapter 5.
•Check that the switch on the battery module or modules
is ‘Off’.
•Make sure that all loads are ‘Off’.
Shut down the connected loads before starting the
UPS and start the loads, one by one, only when the
UPS is running. Before shutting down the UPS, check that
all of the loads are ‘Off’.
•It is very important to proceed in the established order.
•For views of the UPS, see Fig. 1..Fig. 3.
6.2. UPS START-UP AND SHUTDOWN.

Tab. 8. Parameter 1 adjustable codes list.
7.3.2.1. Ah configuration of parameter ‘05’.
•Standard models are configured with factory default
settings, so it is not necessary to perform any actions to
adjust this parameter.
For extended backup and B1 models, however, it is
necessary to adjust the value to the total capacity of the
battery pack. Any alteration of the battery pack will entail a
readjustment, so it will be necessary to adapt the value in
the event of future expansions.
•There are basically two reasons to perform the adjustment
without it affecting the correct functioning of the device if it
is not done, although it is more than recommended:
a. The charging current of the batteries is directly related to
the capacity of the battery pack.
The charger will adapt the charging factor automatically
according to the value of the total capacity entered, up
to the maximum of the current that is possible.
This results in faster charging and therefore greater
availability and more immediate backup in the event of
frequent mains failures.
b. Entering the value in Ah is vital for the control to be able
to calculate and show the backup available on the LCD
display, without further alterations.
The settings values are determined as follows:
1. Devices with backup extension.
They are configured by a standard model plus the battery
module or modules. The capacity of the batteries of both
are indicated in the following Tab. 9 and Tab. 10.
Example for an SPS.1500 ADVANCE RT2 and backup
extension module 6A0BU000003:
7 Ah + 14 Ah = 21 Ah (value for parameter 05).

8. MAINTENANCE, WARRANTY AND SERVICE.
8.1. BATTERY MAINTENANCE.
•Pay attention to all of the safety instructions concerning
batteries indicated in section 1.2.3 of manual EK266*08.
•The service life of the batteries greatly depends on the
ambient temperature and other factors such as the number
of charges and discharges, as well as their depth.
The service life is designed to be between 3 and 5 years if
the ambient temperature is between 10 and 20ºC. Different
types of battery with different service lives are available
upon request.
•SPS.ADAVANCE RT2 series UPSs require minimum upkeep.
The batteries used in the standard models are lead acid,
sealed, valve regulated and maintenance free. The only
requirement is to charge the batteries regularly to extend
their life expectancy.
While it is connected to the mains supply, whether or not it
is running, it will keep the batteries charged and also offer
protection from overcharging and deep discharge.
8.1.1. Notes for the installation and replacement of the battery.
•If it is necessary to replace any connection cables, original
materials can be purchased through our T.S.S. or authorised
distributors. Using inappropriate cables can lead to over-
heating in connections, which is a fire hazard.
•Inside the device, there are permanent dangerous
voltages even without mains supply present through
its connection with the batteries and especially in UPSs
where the electronics and batteries share a box.
Also take into consideration that the battery circuit is
not isolated from the input voltage, so there is a risk of
discharge with dangerous voltages between the battery
terminals and the earth terminal, which is in turn connected
to earth (any metal part of the device).
•Repair and/or maintenance work must be carried out by our
T.S.S., except for the replacement of batteries, which can
be performed by qualified personnel familiar with them. No
other person should handle them.
Depending on the configuration of the UPS, certain actions
need to be carried out before handling the batteries:
Devices with batteries and electronics sharing the
same box.
–Shut down the loads and device completely.
–Disconnect the SPS.ADVANCE RT2 from the mains.
–Open the device to access the interior.
–Remove the fuse or internal battery fuses.
–Release the battery holders and replace the
batteries.
–Perform the above steps in reverse to return the
device to how it was at the start, including start-up.
UPS with batteries and electronics in separate boxes.
–Shut down the loads and device completely.
–Disconnect the SPS.ADVANCE RT2 from the mains.
–Disconnect the battery module from the UPS.
–Open the battery module to access the interior.
–Remove the fuse or internal battery fuses.
–Release the battery holders and replace the batteries.
–Perform the above steps in reverse to return the
device to how it was at the start, including start-up.

9.2. GLOSSARY.
•AC.- Alternating current is electric current in which the
magnitude and direction vary cyclically. The waveform of
the most commonly used alternating current is that of a sine
wave, since this achieves a more efficient transmission of
energy. In certain applications, however, other periodic
waveforms are used, such as triangular or square.
•Bypass.- Manual or automatic, this is the physical
connection between the input of an electrical device and
its output.
•DC.- Direct current is the continuous flow of electrons
through a conductor between two points with different
potential. Unlike AC, in DC, electrical loads always circulate
in the same direction from the point of greatest potential
to the lowest. Although DC is commonly identified as a
continuous current (for example, that supplied by a battery),
any current that always maintains the same polarity is
continuous.
•DSP.- Digital signal processor. A DSP is a processor or
microprocessor-based system that has a set of instructions,
hardware and optimised software for applications that
require numerical operations at very high speed. Because
of this, it is especially useful for the processing and
representation of analogue signals in real time: in a system
that works in this way (real time) samples are usually
received from an analogue/digital converter (ADC).
•Power factor.- The power factor, PF, of an AC circuit is
defined as the ratio between active power, P, and apparent
power, S, or as the cosine of the angle formed by the current
and voltage factors, designated in this case as cos f, where
f is the value of the angle.
•GND.- This stands for GROUND or EARTH and, as the name
indicates, refers to the potential of the surface of the Earth.
•EMI filter.- Filter capable of significantly reducing
electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is the disturbance
that occurs in a radio receiver or in any other electrical
circuit caused by electromagnetic radiation coming from an
external source. Electromagnetic interference is also known
as radio frequency interference (RFI). This disturbance can
interrupt, degrade or limit the performance of the circuit
•IGBT.- An insulated gate bipolar transistor is a
semiconductor device that is generally used as a controlled
switch in power electronics circuits. This device possesses
the characteristics of the gate signals of field effect
transistors with the capacity for high current and low
saturation voltage of the bipolar transistor, combining
an isolated FET gate for input and control and a bipolar
transistor as a single switch in a single device. The IGBT’s
excitation circuit is similar to that of the MOSFET, while the
conducting characteristics are similar to those of the BJT.
•Interface.- In electronics, telecommunications and
hardware, an interface (electronics) is the port (physical
circuit) through which signals are sent or received from one
system or subsystem to another
•kVA.- A volt-ampere is the unit used for apparent power in
electrical current. In DC, it is practically equal to real power
but, in AC, it can differ from this depending on the power factor.
•LCD.-Liquid crystal display, a device invented by Jack
Janning, who was an employee of NCR. It is an electrical
system for data presentation formed by 2 transparent
conductive layers and a special crystalline material in the
middle (liquid crystal) which have the ability to orientate
light as it passes through.
SPS.ADVANCE RT2 UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY (UPS)USER'S MANUAL
30 SALICRU
•LED.- Light-emitting diode, a semiconductor device (diode)
that emits light that is almost monochromatic, that is to
say, it has a very narrow spectrum when it is polarised
directly and is penetrated by an electric current. The colour
(wavelength) depends on the semiconductor material
used in the construction of the diode, and can vary from
ultraviolet, passing through the visible light spectrum, to
infrared, the latter called IRED (infra-red emitting diode).
•Circuit breaker.- A circuit breaker is a device capable
of interrupting the electrical current of a circuit when it
exceeds certain maximum values.
•On-line mode.- A device is said to be on-line when it is
connected to a system, is operative, and normally has its
power supply connected.
•Inverter.- An inverter is a circuit used to convert DC into AC.
The function of an inverter is to change a DC input voltage
to a symmetrical AC output voltage, with the magnitude
and frequency desired by the user or designer.
•Rectifier.- In electronics, a rectifier is the element or
circuit that converts AC into DC. This is done by using
rectifier diodes, whether solid state semiconductors,
vacuum valves or gaseous valves, such as those containing
mercury vapour. Depending on the characteristics of the AC
power that they use, they are classified as single-phase
when they are powered by a mains phase or three-phase
when they are powered by three phases. Depending on the
type of rectification, they can be half wave when only one
of the half cycles of the current is used or full wave when
both half cycles are used.
•Relay.- A relay is an electromechanical device that
functions as a switch controlled by an electrical circuit
in which, by means of an electromagnet, a set of one or
several contacts is activated to enable other independent
electrical circuits to be opened or closed.
•SCR.- Silicon controlled rectifier, commonly known as a
thyristor, a 4-layer semiconductor device that works as an
almost ideal switch.
•THD.- Total harmonic distortion. Harmonic distortion
occurs when the output signal of a system does not equal
the signal that entered it. This lack of linearity affects the
waveform because the device has introduced harmonics
that were not in the input signal. Since they are harmonic,
that is to say, multiples of the input signal, this distortion is
not so dissonant and is less easy to detect.
