The Eaton 93PM UPS is a continuous-duty, solid-state, transformerless, three-phase, true online system that
provides conditioned and uninterruptible AC power to the UPS system's output and critical load.
The basic system consists of a rectifier, battery converter, inverter, monitoring/operation control panel,
integrated communication server, and digital signal processor (DSP) logic. Figure 38 shows the main elements
of the UPS system.
If utility power is interrupted or falls outside the parameters specified in Chapter 10 Product Specifications,
the UPS uses a backup battery supply to maintain power to the critical load for a specified period of time or until
the utility power returns. For extended power outages, the UPS allows you to either transfer to an alternative
power system (such as a generator) or shut down your critical load in an orderly manner.
The emergency bypass consists of a continuous static switch, and bypass switchgear. The bypass switchgear
is located in series with the static switch. The static switch is armed and ready during normal operation.
This unit is a three-wire device. The loss of a single input phase will be considered a complete loss of input
power and discharge the battery to provide power to the load.
