Powerware BPIV Parallel Cabinet Installation and Operation

164201409 REV. B 101503

Introduction

The Powerware BPIV Parallel System can be utilized to prevent loss of valuable

electronic information, minimize equipment downtime, and/or minimize the adverse

effect on equipment and production due to unexpected power problems.

The Powerware BPIV Parallel System continually monitors incoming electrical power

and removes the surges, spikes, sags, and other irregularities that are inherent in

commercial utility power. Working with the building’s electrical system, the Parallel

System supplies clean, consistent power that sensitive electronic equipment requires

for reliable operation. During brownouts, blackouts, and other power interruptions,

optional batteries provide emergency power to safeguard operation.

The Parallel System allows two to four UPMs to operate in parallel capacity or

redundancy to provide more capacity than a single UPM and as backup for each other.

In addition, when one UPM is taken out of service for maintenance or is not operating

properly, a redundant UPM continues to supply uninterrupted power to the critical load.

The Parallel System refers to the Parallel Cabinet in conjunction with the UPMs. The

Parallel System consists of one Parallel Cabinet, and two or more UPMs. Each UPM

may have its own internal battery, and/or optional battery cabinets.

This manual describes how to install and operate your Powerware BPIV Parallel

System. The installation section contains instructions for installing the Parallel Cabinet.

The operation section contains instructions for operating the Parallel Cabinet and

UPMs while paralleling for capacity/redundancy. The information you use depends on

the system you purchased.

NOTE: The installation procedures of this manual only refer to the Parallel Cabinet and its

connection to the UPMs for parallel capacity/redundancy operation. The operation

section of this manual refers to the operation for the Parallel Cabinet and the UPMs

when paralleling for capacity/redundancy. For full installation and operation of the

UPMs, refer to the Powerware BPIV UPS Installation and Operation manual

referenced at the end of this section.

Each component of your Parallel System is housed in a free-standing cabinet. The

cabinets line up and match in style and color, and have safety shields behind the doors

for hazardous voltage protection. The following illustration depicts the Powerware

BPIV Parallel Cabinet.
