Item Component Operation/Function
6 Inverter
In normal operation, inverts the DC output of the PFC circuit into precise, regulated sine-wave
AC power. When utility power fails, the inverter receives DC power from the DC-to-DC
converter. In either operating mode, the UPS inverter remains on-line, generating clean,
precise, regulated AC-output power.
7 Internal Bypass
In the unlikely event of UPS failure such as overload or over temperature, automatically
transfers the connected load to bypass. To manually transfer the connected load from
inverter to bypass, see Transferring from Normal to Bypass Mode on page51.
8 Outlet group Output receptacles.

2.6.1 Maintenance Bypass
On 5 kVA to 10 kVA models, the UPS includes manual maintenance bypass in a removable section of the rear of the UPS.
Maintenance bypass keeps connected equipment powered with utility power and allows replacement of the UPS in the event
of a UPS malfunction.
NOTE: The bypass power path does not protect the connected equipment from disturbances in the utility power
supply.
