9390 UPS (40–80 kVA) Installation and Operation Manual S 164201535 Rev C
7.2.4 Battery Mode RT
The UPS automatically transfers to Battery mode if a utility power outage occurs, or if the
utility power does not conform to specified parameters. In Battery mode, the battery
provides e mergency DC power that the inverter converts to AC power.
Figure 7-4 shows the path of electrical power through the UPS system when operating in
Battery mode.

Figure 7-4. Path of Current Through the UPS in Battery Mode RT
During a utility power failure, the rectifier no longer has an AC utility source from which to
supply the DC output current required to support the inverter. The input contactor K1
opens and the battery instantaneously supplies energy the battery converter. The converter
either bucks or b oosts the voltage so that the inverter can support the customer’s load
without interruption. If bypass is common with the rectifier input, the feed back protection
contactor K5 also opens. The opening of contactors K1 and K5 prevent system voltages
from bleeding backwards through the static switch and rectifier snubber components and
re-entering the input source.
While in Battery mode, the UPS sounds an audible horn, illuminates a visual indicator lamp
on the front panel (System Normal, On Battery), and creates an entry into the alarm event
history. As the battery discharges, the converter and inverter constantly make minute
adjustments to maintain a steady output. The UPS remains in this operating mode until the
input power to the rectifier is again within the specified voltage or frequency acceptance
windows.
