The following options for the Powerware 9155 are available:

Maintenance Bypass Module (MBM)

The optional MBM is installed on the UPS rear panel and is used tobypass the UPS during maintenance or servicing. The MaintenanceBypass switch on the MBM provides a Make-Before-Break (MBB)wrap-around bypass for UPS service without shutting down the load.

Power Distribution Module (PDM)

The optional PDM provides the same functionality as the MBM andalso comes equipped with several different types of outputreceptacles.

Wall-Mounted Bypass Switch

The optional wall-mounted bypass switch is used to bypass the UPSduring maintenance or servicing, providing wrap-around bypass forUPS service without shutting down the load.

Parallel Tie Cabinet

A parallel system with up to three UPSs can be installed to provide aparallel capacity and/or redundant system. This load sharing systemprovides more capacity than a single UPS and can provide backup,depending on the load and configuration. In addition, when one UPSis taken out of service for maintenance or is not operating properly, aredundant UPS continues to supply uninterrupted power to the criticalload. A parallel Powerware Hot Sync Computer Area Network (CAN)Bridge Card provides connectivity for system metering and operationalmode control. The parallel system consists of two to three UPSs, eachwith a parallel CAN Bridge Card, and a parallel tie cabinet. Refer tothe Powerware 9155 Parallel UPS (8–15 kVA) User’s Guide for moreinformation.

Input Isolation Transformer

The optional input isolation transformer is located at the bottom of a3-high UPS model. The input isolation transformer provides a neutralfrom a 208V or 240V input source with 240V output and can be wiredto the UPS or to an MBM/PDM.

Remote Emergency Power-offREPO is used to shut down the UPS from a distance. This feature can beused for shutting down the load and the UPS by thermal relay, forinstance in the event of room overtemperature. When REPO is activated,the UPS shuts down all converters, de-energizes all system relays, andfully powers down within 10-15 seconds.

There are two REPO positions that may be used, normally-open ornormally-closed.

The pins on the normally-closed REPO connector are connectedtogether. When this connection is open, the logic circuitry completelyshuts down the UPS, thus preventing the power from supplying the load.

If the use of normally-closed REPO operation is desired, replace theconnector with a normally-closed external switch (see Figure 32 onpage 53).

If the use of normally-open REPO operation is desired, connect anormally-open external switch (see Figure 32 on page 53).

NOTE To restart the UPS, reconnect the REPO connector pins and turnon the UPS manually. The pins must be shorted to keep the UPS running.Maximum resistance is 10 ohm.

NOTE Leave the REPO connector installed in the REPO port on the UPSrear panel even if the REPO function is not needed.

CAUT IONThe REPO must not be connected to any utility connected circuits. Reinforcedinsulation to the utility is required. The REPO switch must have a minimumrating of 24 Vdc and 20 mA.To ensure the UPS stops supplying power to the load during any mode ofoperation, the input power must be disconnected from the UPS when theemergency power-off function is activated.

Relay ContactsThe UPS incorporates a programmable relay output with potential freecontacts for remote alarm indications (see Figure 32 on page 53). Anadditional four relay outputs can be obtained with the X-Slot compatibleRelay Interface Card.

WARN INGThe relay contacts must not be connected to any utility connected circuits.Reinforced insulation to the utility is required. The relay contacts must have amaximum rating of 30 Vdc/1A and 60 Vdc/2A nominal values.

Programmable Signal InputsThe UPS incorporates two programmable signal inputs (see Figure 32 onpage 53). Use of non-polar (relay) control input is recommended. Thepins must be shorted with maximum resistance of 10 ohm in order toactivate the specific input.

NOTE See Figure 39 on page 61 for the polarity and verify theseconnections if polarity control is required.

The default and programmable settings for the signal inputs are shown inTable 11.

Using the Wall-Mounted Bypass SwitchThe wall-mounted bypass switch is rated at 80A/300 Vac and has fourpositions as described in Table 15.

NOTE In the UPS or LINE position, AC input power is still connected tothe input terminals inside the UPS.

Table 15. Wall-Mounted Bypass Switch PositionsSwitch Position Description

UPS Connects the UPS output to the load.

LINE Connects the load directly to AC input power and disconnects UPS output. AC inputpower is still connected to the UPS input.

SERVICE Like the LINE position, SERVICE connects the load directly to AC input power anddisconnects UPS output. However, because SERVICE also disconnects AC inputfrom the UPS, this is the appropriate position for UPS maintenance or repair.

OFF Disconnects the load from the UPS output power and AC input power, as well as ACinput power to the UPS input.

You must press the red button beside the switch before turning theMaintenance Bypass switch.
