4. APPLICATIONS

SENTRYUM UPS are suitable for applications requiring critical load protection, from a simple installation to those more complex where
the requirement for the highest levels of reliability and maintainability are paramount.

LAN, Server and Datacentre: the unitary output power factor (kVA=kW) ensures the greatest power availability for efficient UPS loading.

e-business and Telecommunications: parallel operation means that the installed UPS size can be increased (up to 8 units) to keep pace
with the growth of the organisation.

Industrial processes, Transport and Electro-medical systems: the UPS is designed to protect a range of loads, from industrial processes
to electro-medical applications. This has been achieved through careful load analysis at the design stage of the SENTRYUM project, to
ensure the following characteristics:

 Optimum input technical characteristics with zero impact on the power supply source.
 Extremely high inverter short circuit and overload capacity.
 High battery recharge capacity with the option to use a variety of battery types (sealed valve regulated open-vented, Nickel
Cadmium, Li-Ion) for long back-up times
 Compatibility with supercapacitors for short time back-up needs and green cost-effective solutions
 Higher IP rating on site add on solution

Emergency systems
The UPS can be configured in accordance with the standard EN50171 (Centralised Power Supply Systems).
With the battery type, the autonomy and recharge times, in accordance with the EN50171 standard. 3 different modes of operation can
be selected in order to adapt to all different system requirements.

5. CONFIGURATIONS

The configurations available are the following:

Single UPS
The single UPS solution, normally used for simple installations, can be expanded in parallel to satisfy increases of connected load or to
introduce a higher redundant level.

Parallel configuration
Up to 8 UPSs having the same power rating (4 units when using the single-phase version) can be connected in parallel to increase the
power of the uninterruptible power system (power parallel) or to enhance its reliability (redundant parallel).
The system is defined as “redundant parallel” when the stopping of one or several UPSs does not determine the loss of the power supply.
All the UPSs power the load simultaneously with automatic current sharing.
The units exchange information in relation to the operating status and the sync signals, via a communication loop providing dual
redundancy. This means that even in the event of the accidental interruption of both connections, only the UPS affected by this
interruption will switch off, whilst the other unit will continue to operate without any interference.

Thanks to the “Hot System Expansion” feature means that a new UPS can be added to the system while the other units are on-line and
powering the load from the inverter.
The UPS being integrated will configure itself automatically with the system data without any disturbance to the load.

Note:
 Maximum communication cable length between two UPS should not exceed 50 meters keeping in mind that total length for
the overall ring is 100 meters.

 The standard communication cable, part of installation kit is 5 meters long for all SENTRYUM range 10-20; the user may
arrange for a longer cable (in accordance with the specification above) using a standard RJ45 type cable as available on the
market.

 For parallel configuration where a transformer is required to be connected downstream of each single UPS, please contact
your local agent in advance.

 Parallel UPS are set with separate battery configuration (as depicted below); common battery configuration can be arranged
using the Configuration Software (for authorised personnel only).

The SENTRYUM block diagram is as follows:

SENTRYUM “Dual Input” version (separate bypass line) block diagram is the following:

SPTS3TD2T19IREN 7
 SENTRYUM

>6.1 PFC CONVERTER (ZERO IMPACT SOURCE)

The PFC Converter converts the AC voltage into a DC supply to power the Inverter; if the mains or alternative power supply fails, the
Converter will raise the battery voltage to a value suitable with which to power the Inverter. The PFC control technology benefits from
Dual core Digital Signal Processor (DSP) microprocessors, advanced Programmed Logic Device (PLD) and latest generation of IGBT
modules to achieve a low impact on the power supply source, low harmonic distortion and high input power factor.
The UPS negligible input harmonic distortion of 3% and high input power factor (> 0.99); make it possible to reduce the size of a possible
generator and/or a distribution transformer MT/BT placed upstream.

A zero impact on the supply source is ensured, due to the following configurable operational control parameters:

 Power Walk in-start Delay (t0-t1): when the mains power supply returns, this parameter delays the input stage start up for a
period of time that can be set between 0 and 120 seconds. This function is particularly useful when the mains power supply
returns after an interruption (or when the generator set is started) and the source is required to supply various UPS or, more
typically, multiple loads.

 Power Walk-in duration (t1-t2): when the mains power supply returns, absorption of the mains power supply progressively
reaches the nominal value within a time period that can be set from 1 to 120 seconds. This function is normally disabled but
whether active or not the UPS maximum input current (Inrush) is always limited and never greater than the nominal current

>6.2 BATTERY CHARGER (Smart Battery Management)

The "Smart Battery Management" is a set of functions arranged to help extend the working life of the connected battery set and
optimise its performance.

Battery recharging: the UPS can be used with sealed lead batteries (VRLA), AGM, open-vented, NiCad and lithium batteries. According
to the type of battery used, three different charging methods are available:

Recharging modes (selectable via the Configuration Software) SENTRYUM configurations

Floating: the charge state of the battery is

continuously monitored; when the mains power
supply is present, the batteries are charged at a
pre-set voltage level and limited current relative
to the recharge time required and the capacity of
the connected battery.

Two-level recharge (standard): this recharge is at

limited current with two levels of voltage. In the
first instance, the process uses a quick charge
voltage, whilst in the second stage a float charge.
This type of charging is mainly used with open-
vented batteries or other types when an
accelerated recharge time is required.

Cyclical recharge: this recharge is sometimes

recommended by battery manufacturers to
prolong the battery life. It consists of battery
charge and discharge cycles as indicated in the
diagram.

“Commissioning Charge”: this charge method is

useful every time new batteries are installed in
the UPS. By increasing the voltage to 290
(adjustable value) Volts for a maximum of 24
hours, perfect equalisation of the battery charge
is assured, thus guaranteeing a uniform discharge
and wear of the individual battery blocks.

SPTS3TD2T19IREN 9
 SENTRYUM

The various recharge methods and the pre-set voltage values are defined using the Configuration Software.
The presence of the external temperature sensor option may activate (via the configuration software) compensation of the voltage
depending on the temperature (20 mV/°C on each battery block).

The Riello UPS Smart Battery Management consists of a series of features and capabilities to optimize battery operation and preserve
the battery life:

Battery test: during normal operation the battery is automatically tested at regular intervals. The battery test can also be
manually activated.
The UPS switches to battery just for the short time needed to execute the battery test and only when the mains are present as
backup, therefore the battery charge level and the load safety are not compromised.
If the test returns a negative result a warning is displayed on the UPS panel (or remote panel, if installed).

Protection against slow discharges: for long runtimes and low load discharges, the end of discharge voltage is raised to
approximately 1.8 V/el. as recommended by the battery manufacturers to avoid a deep discharge state.

Ripple current: recharge ripple current (residual AC component) is one of the most important causes of poor battery reliability
and reduced operating life. The UPS battery charger is a high-frequency design with a negligible level of ripple current.

Battery recharge limit current: The battery recharge current is limited to a prefixed value of Cnom/8 (i.e. 12.5% Cnom). The
percentage limit can be adjusted using the Configuration Software assuming that Sentryum is able to deliver up to 20 Amps of
battery recharge current (refer to technical data table).

Cold-Start: This feature allows the Inverter to be switched on and the load to be powered by the battery, when the mains power
supply is not present. The cold start function is fitted as standard within all Sentryum units with the cold start button located
either at the front or rear of the unit according with the version type (CPT, ACT, XTD); for details refer to UPS installation manual.

Battery charger current: The SENTRYUM battery charger provides 6 Amps as standard; it is possible to supply the UPS (ex-works)
with a higher rated recharging current (ER version) therefore delivering up to 12 A for the 10 kVA version and 20 A for the 15 and
20 kVA power rating.

UPS without batteries: the UPS must always be operated with the batteries connected; if they are not connected alarms will be
generated and the UPS will not be able to ensure business continuity if mains power supply fails.

SPTS3TD2T19IREN 10
 SENTRYUM

>6.3 INVERTER

The DC/AC Converter (Inverter) converts the direct current into a stabilised sinusoidal alternating current to power the load. When the
UPS is in ON-LINE mode, the load is always powered by the Inverter.
The Inverter type is an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) based three level design; innovative resonant control as well as dual core
DSP microprocessor and high commutation inverter frequencies (18 kHz) make it possible to ensure high quality output voltage, with
low noise levels, high operating efficiency and outstanding dynamic performance under any operating condition.

Voltage adjustment
The output voltage can be adjusted using the independent phase control and DSP microprocessor; this enables a better static and
dynamic response. In detail:

a) static condition: the Inverter output voltage remains within ±1% for all variations of the input voltage within the accepted limits;
b) dynamic condition: for load variations from 20 to 100% and 100 to 20%, the output voltage remains within ±1%, with linear load
(refer to the technical data table).

Frequency adjustment
The Inverter output frequency is generated autonomously by an internal oscillator, in synchronisation with the bypass supply. Frequency
stability is operating condition dependent:

a) Frequency stability
a. With the mains supply present: the internal oscillator follows any frequency variations of the bypass supply, in relation to
the pre-set value - normally ±5% (configurable from ±0.10% to ±10%).
b. With no mains supply present: the Inverter autonomously generates the frequency of the output voltage with a stability of
±0.01%.
b) Frequency variation speed
The maximum Inverter output frequency variation speed is 1 Hz/s (adjustable from 0.1 to 4 Hz/s).

Distortion of the output voltage

Inverter output waveform distortion with a linear load is maintained within ±1%. With a non-linear load, thanks to the ultimate digital
control, the output voltage distortion does not exceed 1.5%.

Overload
The Inverter is sized to provide a power overload for a limited length of time (see the limits indicated in the “Technical data table”).
When the time period or power limits are exceeded, the load is transferred to the bypass supply.

Short circuit capacity

If a current surge occurs whilst the UPS is operating from the batteries the Inverter will carefully analyse the output voltage and current
in order to distinguish if the short circuit is genuine or an overload. The UPS will detect a short circuit if (VOUT<190 V):

 During battery operation (mains power supply failure) the Inverter can supply a current limited to 2.7x In for 200ms + 1.5In for
300ms.
 With the mains supply present, the UPS will changeover to bypass and supply a limited current for 1 sec. (current >103% and output
voltage <190 Volt). However, if the current is greater than 200%, but the voltage is within the limit, UPS will not discriminate the
short circuit, continuing to feed the load for 20 seconds; during this time the upstream or downstream protections devices outside
of the UPS should be able to be discriminated.

SPTS3TD2T19IREN 11
 SENTRYUM

The table below recommends the sizing of the various protection devices located downstream of the UPS in order to guarantee their
discrimination even in the event of a power failure:

Output protections (recommended values for selectivity)

Normal fuses (GI) In (Nominal current)/4

Normal switches (C curve) In (Nominal current)/4

Ultra-fast fuses (GF) In (Nominal current)/2

>6.4 STATIC SWITCH (Automatic Bypass)

A static switch is an electronic device that can automatically transfer the loads connected to the UPS to the bypass supply in an
emergency for example when:

a) Inverter overload limits are exceeded;

b) internal over temperature limits are exceeded;
c) the Inverter fails;
d) DC voltage goes outside the permitted range.

If at the time of switchover, the inverter voltage is not synchronised with that of the bypass power supply, the transfer is inhibited. In
consideration of the various types of loads it is possible to enable the transfer with a fixed delay (20 msec.) or to adjust the transfer
delay (10-100 msec.). All the settings can be modified via the Configuration Software.

Bypass Input (Emergency Supply Voltage)

Transfer to the emergency supply only takes place if the voltage and the frequency are considered 'suitable' for the load and the limits
for transfer can be adjusted via the Configuration Software.

 Default voltage range: -22%, +15% (configurable from -22% to +15%);

 Default frequency range: ±5% (configurable from ±0.10% to ±10%)

Overload
The static switch has no over current fast protection devices to guarantee maximum continuity.
Overcurrent protection shall be provided by protective devices within the overall installation to ensure UPS compatibility.

UPS static switch is sized to support the following overload periods; above these limits the UPS is automatically turned Off:

 110% permanently
 125% for 60 minutes
 150% for 10 minutes
 200% 1 min
 >200% 20 sec

Note: for further overload limit details and clearing I2t current refer to the technical data table.

Redundant Auxiliary Power Supply for the Automatic Bypass

The SENTRYUM is equipped with a redundant auxiliary power supply to allow the automatic bypass to function even if the main power
supply has failed.
If the UPS fails in addition to the main power supply, the load is powered through the automatic bypass.
The control card, the display and communication slots remain powered, thus maintaining the communication interfaces to enable the
UPS monitoring.

SPTS3TD2T19IREN 12
 SENTRYUM

Backfeed protection
The UPS has an internal protection against backfeed. This protection acts by means of a sensing circuit which turns the inverter off if a
fault within the static switch is detected. During this condition, to avoid interrupting the supply to the connected load, the UPS switches
to the bypass line.
If this fault occurs during battery operation, the inverter is stopped.
A volt free contact can be configured (via the Configuration Software) to drive a disconnecting device to be installed upstream of the
bypass input to the UPS, in this case when a backfeed fault occurs, the system opens the external disconnecting device, hence avoiding
the requirement to stop the inverter.

>6.5 UPS OPERATING MODES

The UPS can be operated in five main operating modes: ON-LINE, FREQUENCY CONVERTER, ECO, SMART ACTIVE, STANDBY OFF, these
operating modes are described as follows:

Mode: ON LINE
Normal Operation: the rectifier, draws power from the mains power supply, supports the Inverter and charges the batteries; the load
is powered by the Inverter which provides a clean and secure supply, synchronised to the bypass supply.

Emergency Operation: if the mains power supply exceeds the permitted input range (voltage and frequency), the rectifier is shut down
and the Inverter is automatically powered by the battery set for the pre-set back-up time and without disruption to the load. When the
mains power supply returns, the rectifier gradually starts up, charges the batteries and eventually powers the Inverter.

Operation from By-pass: if an Inverter overload exceeds permitted limits, or is manually shutdown, the load automatically transfers to
the emergency bypass via the static switch and without disruption to the load.

Mode: FREQUENCY CONVERTER

The UPS can be configured as a frequency converter via the Configuration Software, therefore when the input frequency is 50 Hz the
output frequency can be 60 Hz and vice versa. During this mode of operation, the automatic by-pass is disabled. The UPS can work in
frequency converter mode with or without the batteries (must be configured via the Configuration Software).
In Frequency converter mode the static bypass is not available, therefore the user cannot perform a manual bypass operation.

Mode: ECO
The load is normally powered from the emergency bypass supply and the rectifier maintains the battery charge. When the mains power
supply exceeds the permitted input range, the load is automatically transferred (transfer time < 2 msec.) to the output of the Inverter
until the mains power supply returns within range.
This mode is useful when powering loads that do not require the regulated no-break supply from the Inverter and allows the system to
achieve a very high efficiency of up to 99%.

Mode: SMART ACTIVE

When the UPS is configured to operate in SMART ACTIVE mode, it automatically selects whether to operate in ON LINE or ECO mode.
The decision is made based on statistical calculations performed by the UPS and based on the quality of the mains and bypass supplies:
if the latter remains suitable for a certain period, the unit selects ECO mode, otherwise it remains in ON LINE mode.

Mode: STANDBY OFF

If selected the UPS is set to operate only in an emergency: when the mains power is present, the load is powered off while, in the event
of a black-out, the load is powered by the inverter from the batteries (activation time is less than 0.5 sec) and is then powered off again
when mains power is restored (default time is zero seconds, however this can be adjusted via the Configuration Software).

Note: The above listed operating modes are available whether a single unit, or parallel system configuration.

SPTS3TD2T19IREN 13
 SENTRYUM

7. CONTROL PANEL

The control panel consists of a 5" touch screen graphic display (resolution is 480x272 pixel) and multicolour status led placed below the
display which delivers immediate and clear information regarding the overall status of the UPS by changing the colour (light blue, dark
blue, yellow and red) according with the operating mode and condition.

>7.1 DISPLAY AND STATUS LED

8. COMMUNICATION INTERFACES

Communication interfaces are located at the rear of the UPS with the same layout no matter which model (Compact, Active, Xtend).

>8.1 COMMUNICATION BOARD

It includes R.E.P.O., IN/OUT signals interface, USB communication port, serial port.

R.E.P.O: This insulated input is used to switch off the UPS in an emergency. The UPS is supplied with the "Remote Emergency Power Off"
(R.E.P.O.) terminals short circuited. At installation, remove the short-circuit and connect to the normally closed contact of the shutdown
device, using a double-insulating cable.
When activated from a remote push-button or other device in an emergency, the R.E.P.O connection opens and the UPS switches to
stand-by mode. The UPS no longer powers the load.
The R.E.P.O circuit is supplied with SELV type circuits. No external supply voltage is required. When it is closed (normal condition), a
maximum current of 10 mA flows.
After an emergency shutdown, the UPS will only return to on-line operating mode once it receives a start-up command from the mimic
panel (provided that the Remote Emergency Power Off device is not still active).

IN/OUT signal interface makes it possible to configure five opto insulated UPS input commands and four different output alarms.
The UPS is delivered with standard input and output alarm configuration (both enabled via the display prior to “Expert” access level).
The commands and alarms list can only be modified using the Configuration Software.

In order to carry out card installation and configuration refer to the specific cards dedicated user manual.
For further accessory information please visit our website.

>8.4 EXTERNAL SYNCHRONISATION

This non-insulated input can be used to synchronise the Inverter output to a suitable
signal from an external source. It is essential when the SENTRYUM is used in
combination with Static Switch Transfer Systems.
During installation, it is important to:

 use an insulation transformer with insulated single-phase output (SELV),

12-24 Vac and a power ≥ 0.5 VA (available if required as an optional item-
refer to the options paragraph);
 connect the transformer secondary to the "EXTERNAL SYNC" terminal
through a double-insulation cable with a cross-sectional area of 1 sqmm. External synchronisation
(refer to the picture on the right) (identified as “EXT SYNC”) and
External battery temperature
The external synchronisation must be configured via the Configuration Software sensor (identified as “EXT T_BATT)
assigned to authorised personnel. input connections are positioned
within the terminals area close to
the input/output power
connections for all three UPS
versions.

>8.5 EXTERNAL BATTERY TEMPERATURE SENSOR

The UPS has a special connection point for measuring the temperature inside an external Battery Cabinet and indicating the temperature
on the UPS display, along with adjusting the battery voltage in accordance with the room temperature. (refer to paragraph 10.2)
Connect the sensor to the "EXT T_BATT" terminals (refer to the picture on the right)

>8.6 MONITORING AND CONTROL SOFTWARE

The PowerShield3 software guarantees effective, intuitive UPS management, displaying all the most important information such as input
voltage, applied load and battery capacity.
It is also able to perform shutdown operations, send e-mails and network messages automatically when certain events (selected by the
user) occur.

INSTALLATION OPERATIONS
 Connect one of the UPS’s communication ports to one of the PC’s communication ports using the cable supplied.
 Download the software from the web site www.riello-ups.com selecting the specific operating system.

9. ISOLATING SWITCHES

The UPS is supplied with the following isolation switches located at the rear or front of UPS depending on the chassis type (refer to the
UPS installation manual for details):

 Mains input switch (SWIN)

 Output switch (SWOUT)
 Manual bypass switch (SWMB)
 Internal battery fuse holder isolator (SWBATT)
 Bypass input switch (SWBYP) (Not available for Compact, optional for Active, standard for Xtend versions)

Note: SWBATT fuse isolator only protects the internal battery only; any additional battery cabinets should come with their own
dedicated provision to protect the external battery.

10. UPS CABINET

The cabinet is made of galvanised steel with an IP20 rating (degree of Ingress Protection), even with the front door open.
Side and cover panels have a thickness of 0.8 mm and are treated with powder coating.

Ventilation is forced and is provided by fans located on the front; the air flow is front to rear with the output at the back.
The three different versions are equipped with wheels to easily move and position the UPS during the installation.

SPTS3TD2T19IREN 21
 SENTRYUM

11. OPTIONS AND ACCESSORIES

11.1 BATTERY CABINETS

The battery cabinet should be used to provide suitable power backup time during the failure of the incoming mains power supply. The
number of batteries housed within the cabinet varies according to UPS rating and the required backup time.
The UPS can monitor the status of the battery switch located within the cabinet via an auxiliary switch contact connected to Input
contact on the communication board or to the MultiCOM 392 (contact configuration is reserved only for authorised personnel via the
Configuration Software)
If one or more Battery Cabinets are installed the UPS must be configured to update the rated capacity value (Ah of batteries inside the
UPS if present, plus the Ah of all external battery cabinets). This operation can only be performed via the Configuration Software.

The Riello UPS Battery Cabinet configuration is shown below.

Other solutions may be developed on site, bearing in mind that:

-The structure of the battery enclosure must respect that described above.
-The number of batteries must remain constant (20+20 12 Volt blocks and multiple strings in parallel if required).
-The battery capacity (expressed in Ah) must fall within the range of 4 and 20 times the available recharging current (see the “Technical
Specifications Table”).

 SENTRYUM

>11.2 EXTERNAL BATTERY TEMPERATURE SENSOR

The UPS has a specific connection point for measuring the temperature inside an external Battery Cabinet and indicating the
temperature on the UPS display.
The specific kit supplied by the manufacturer includes a bipolar double insulated cable measuring 10 meters. The use of a bipolar cable
without insulation exposes the UPS and the user to risks resulting from a lack of insulation as the reading refers directly to the UPS
neutral earthing.
Once installed, it is necessary to enable the temperature display information and activate the voltage compensation. Both operations
can be performed using the Configuration Software.
The kit enables the connection of a temperature probe for a Battery Cabinet placed adjacent to the UPS or 10 meters away. If it is not
enough it is possible to extend it up to 25 meters (sensor cable length shall be arranged by the user).
For further details refer to dedicated option installation manual.

>11.3 EXTENDED RECHARGE BATTERY CURRENT (ER VERSION)

The UPS can be provided from the factory with a more powerful battery charger to deliver higher battery recharging current.

>11.4 SEPARATE INPUT LINES (DI)

Sentryum Active version within the range 10-20 kVA is supplied with a common input to the rectifier and bypass stages.
In addition, the UPS may be supplied from the factory with separate lines (“Dual Input” Version).
This turns the standard UPS into a “Dual Input” version. This modification can be performed later onsite if required, thanks to the
installation of a dedicated kit that can be fitted by authorised personnel, whom are properly trained.
There are two installation kits depending on the UPS type (S3M 10-20; S3T-10-20).
If the UPS is changed from single Input to “Dual Input” version, UPS protections should be sized accordingly (refer to UPS installation
manual).
SENTRYUM Xtend version comes as standard from the factory with a separate bypass line, whilst the Sentryum Compact version does
not have this option available.

>11.5 EXTERNAL MAINTENANCE BYPASS

An external remote maintenance bypass can be installed with the UPS, to allow, for example, UPS replacement without disruption to
the load.
If this option is chosen, it is mandatory to connect the "SERVICE BYPASS" terminals (see “UPS installation manual”) to the NC auxiliary
contact of the SERVICE BYPASS switch. Closing the SERVICE BYPASS switch opens this auxiliary contact which informs the UPS that the
maintenance bypass has been activated. If such a connection is not made, operation of the remote maintenance bypass may disrupt the
supply of power to the load and damage the UPS.
Refer to UPS installation manual for further details.

Note: Always check that the remote maintenance bypass installation (if selected) is compatible with any transformer options selected
for the UPS - see paragraph 11.7 Optional Transformer.

SPTS3TD2T19IREN 23
 SENTRYUM

>11.6 EXTERNAL SYNC KIT

In order to synchronise the inverter output to an external source, a synchronisation

kit is available. This kit contains an isolated single-phase low voltage output
transformer (SELV).
Connect the transformer secondary to the "EXT SYNC" terminal block (marked as 1
and 2) located within the power connections area (refer to “Power connection details”
paragraph of the UPS installation manual for further details) using a double insulated
cable with a 1 sqmm cross-section.
Make sure to respect the polarisation as in the figure at the right.
After installation, enable the control using the Configuration Software.
To minimise disturbances, keep the cable length as short as possible (suggested 25 m
maximum). If extended length is required, please contact your local service centre

11.7 OPTIONAL TRANSFORMERS

A transformer can be installed in combination with UPS. Transformer options include: supply neutral reference, Galvanic insulation and
output voltage (step-up or down).

a) Transformer located inside the UPS (this option is only available from the factory on S3T 10-20 and S3M 10-20 Xtend versions
only).
The optional internal transformer is connected to the output to guarantee galvanic isolation both during inverter and bypass
operating modes.
A Star-Star type transformer is used which does not induce phase displacement between the input and output; the neutral of
the secondary is not earthed, hence making the UPS suitable for TT, TN and IT connections; therefore on site, the UPS output
neutral shall be bound to earth according with neutral installation arrangement.
The transformer is connected to the output terminals of the UPS, therefore the values shown on the display refer to quantities
measured upstream of the transformer.

Note: The presence of the transformer inside the UPS changes the neutral system. The eventual installation of a "remote maintenance
bypass " in parallel with the UPS is incompatible with the presence of the transformer. If fitted, make sure that simultaneously with
the closing of the bypass switch the UPS is insulated from the plant by opening the disconnectors of the input and output.

b) Transformer located outside the UPS (depending on the requirements and the type of electrical set up described below).
This option can be applied to the entire Sentryum 10-20 kVA range and versions (Compact, Active, Xtend).

Note: the presence of the transformer will modify the neutral arrangements of the installation. The eventual installation of a "remote
maintenance bypass" to isolate the UPS, in case of breakdown / maintenance has to be located after the transformer (if the same is
installed in the UPS input) or upstream of the transformer (if the same is installed in the UPS output).

The following drawings provide a general overview of the possible installation scenarios.
Every configuration should be carefully evaluated according with the real installation environment.

Separated lines upstream (DI):

If the Dual Input option is present and the bypass is supplied from a separate low voltage source, protective devices must be present
on both the main input supply and the bypass supply. (refer to UPS installation manual)
Neutral of the input line and that of the bypass are joined inside the equipment, therefore they will refer to the same potential. If the
two mains supplies are different, it is necessary to use an isolation transformer on one of the inputs.
Note: In all these three cases below, the neutrals feeding both rectifier and bypass inputs are different. Assuming the UPS joins them
together, ensure that earth line is connected either on bypass line neutral or rectifier line neutral, not on both!

11.8 FRONT DOOR AIR FILTER

Sentryum (Xtend version only) can be supplied (ex-works) with a special door fitted with a dust filter to preserve UPS operation even
within a dusty environment.
It is possible to replace the standard door onsite with the special one having the embedded filter (dedicated kit).
If the correct maintenance works are carried out to keep the filter clean, the UPS performance will not be restricted (No power
downgrading).

11.9 IP30 VERSION

Sentryum (Xtend version only) can be supplied (ex-works) with a special frame complying to IP30.
IP30 protection degree does not affect the UPS performance (No power downgrading)

11.10 IPX1 KIT

vertical falling drops of water. This kit is suitable for standard Xtend chassis (to achieve IP21 protection degree) or for IP30 version (to
achieve IP31 protection degree).
Neither the IP21 nor IP31 protection degree affect the UPS performance (No power downgrading).

11.11 PARALLEL

Any Sentryum UPS can be paralleled with other units of the same size
through an optional parallel board, inserted into the dedicated slot.
For further information about the parallel feature, please refer to the
paragraph 5 “Parallel kit” manual.
