CHAPTER 1

POWERWARE 5125

The Powerware 5125 uninterruptible power system (UPS) protects

your sensitive electronic equipment from basic power problems such as

power failures, power sags, power surges, brownouts, and line noise.

Power outages can occur when you least expect it and power quality can

be erratic. These power problems have the potential to corrupt critical

data, destroy unsaved work sessions, and damage hardware — causing

hours of lost productivity and expensive repairs.

With the Powerware 5125, you can safely eliminate the effects of power

disturbances and guard the integrity of your equipment. The Powerware

5125 is designed for critical applications such as PCs, severs,

workstations, and telecommunications equipment. Figure 1 shows the

Powerware 5125 UPS with an optional Extended Battery Module (EBM).

Figure 1. The Powerware 5125

Providing outstanding performance and reliability, the Powerware

5125’s unique benefits include the following:

2U rack height conserves valuable rack space.

Advanced Battery Management Plus (ABM Plus

) doubles battery

service life, optimizes recharge time, and provides a warning before

the end of useful battery life.

Hours of extended run time with up to four EBMs.

Hot-swappable batteries simplify maintenance by allowing you to

replace batteries safely without powering down the critical load.

Start-on-battery capability allows you to power up the UPS even if

utility power is not available.

Advanced power management with the Software Suite CD for graceful

shutdowns and power monitoring.

Sequential shutdown and load management through separate

receptacle groups, called load segments.

Emergency shutdown control through the Remote Emergency

Power-Off (REPO) port.

Optional X-Slot

modules provide enhanced communication

capabilities for increased power protection and control.

The Powerware 5125 is backed by worldwide agency approvals.

CHAPTER 2

SAFETY WARNINGS

Read the following precautions before you install the UPS.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important instructions that you

should follow during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries. Please

read all instructions before operating the equipment and save this manual for future

reference.

DANGER

This UPS contains LETHAL VOLTAGES. All repairs and service should be performed

by AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY. There are NO USER

SERVICEABLE PARTS inside the UPS.

WARNING

: This UPS contains its own energy source (batteries). The output receptacles may

carry live voltage even when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.

: Do not remove or unplug the input cord when the UPS is turned on. This removes

the safety ground from the UPS and the equipment connected to the UPS.

: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, install this UPS in a temperature and

humidity controlled, indoor environment, free of conductive contaminants. Ambient

temperature must not exceed 40



C (104



F). Do not operate near water or

excessive humidity (95% max).

: To comply with international standards and wiring regulations, the total equipment

connected to the output of this UPS must not have an earth leakage current

greater than 2.5 milliamperes.

Safety Warnings

Powerware

5125 Two-in-One (2400–3000 VA) User’s Guide : www.powerware.com

CAUTION

: Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock or burn from high short-circuit

current. Observe proper precautions. Servicing should be performed by qualified

service personnel knowledgeable of batteries and required precautions. Keep

unauthorized personnel away from batteries.

: Proper disposal of batteries is required. Refer to your local codes for disposal

requirements.

: Never dispose of batteries in a fire. Batteries may explode when exposed to flame.

the damage claim within 15 days to your service representative.

UPS Setup

The Powerware 5125 UPS is designed for flexible configurations and can

be installed in a rack or as a standalone cabinet.

If you are installing the UPS in a rack, continue to the following section,

“Rack-Mount Setup;” otherwise, continue to “Cabinet Setup” on

page 19.

Installation

Powerware

5125 Two-in-One (2400–3000 VA) User’s Guide : www.powerware.com

Rack-Mount Setup

The UPS can be installed in 19-inch racks and needs only 2U of valuable

rack space.

CAUTION

The UPS and Extended Battery Module are heavy (see page 47). A minimum of two

people are required to lift the UPS into the rack.

NOTE Fixed mounting rails are required for each cabinet. If fixed rails are not already

installed in your rack, contact your local distributor to order a rail kit.

Use the following procedure to install the UPS in a rack:

1. Place the UPS on a flat, stable surface with the front of the UPS

facing toward you.

2. Attach the supplied mounting handles to the mounting

brackets (see Figure 2).

3. If installing optional EBMs, repeat Steps 1 and 2 for each

cabinet.

NOTE The UPS and EBMs MUST be installed at the bottom of the rack. If placed in a

rack with existing equipment, the rack must be reconfigured to allow the UPS

installation at the bottom of the rack.

NOTE The EBMs must be installed below the UPS as shown in Figure 3.

4. Slide the UPS and any optional EBMs into the rack. Continue to

“Installing the UPS” on page 24 to complete the installation.

Figure 5. Horizontal Cabinet Setup

When positioning the cabinets vertically, the UPS and any optional

EBMs must be stabilized with pedestals and/or EBM brackets. The

vertical setup varies depending on the number of cabinets:

For one cabinet, both sets of pedestals must be installed.

Complete Steps 2 through 4.

For two cabinets, the pedestals and the EBM brackets must be

installed. Skip to Step 5.

For three or more cabinets, skip to Step 8 to install the EBM

brackets.

2. Place the UPS cabinet horizontally so that the left end of the

unit is accessible (see Figure 6).

3. Position the pedestals over the end of the UPS cabinet so that

the weight of the unit is evenly distributed. Secure the pedestals

with the screws provided in the accessory kit.

Installing the UPS

The following steps explain how to install the UPS. Figure 13 shows a

typical installation only. See “UPS Rear Panels” on page 26 for the rear

panel of each model.

NOTE Do not make unauthorized changes to the UPS; otherwise, damage may occur

to your equipment and void your warranty.

1. If installing an optional EBM, continue to Step 2; otherwise,

skiptoStep5.

2. Plug the EBM cable into the UPS battery connector (see

Figure 13).

3. Plug the other end of the EBM cable into the EBM battery

connector.

4. For additional EBMs, plug the EBM cable into the battery

connector of each EBM. Up to four EBMs may be connected to

the UPS.

5. If you are installing power management software, connect your

computer to the UPS communication port using the supplied

communication cable.

For Rack-Mount Installations only. If your rack has conductors for

grounding or bonding of ungrounded metal parts, connect the

ground cable (not included) to the ground bonding screw.

7. Plug the equipment to be protected into the appropriate UPS

output receptacles (see page 36 for more information on load

segments).

DO NOT protect laser printers with the UPS because of the

exceptionally high power requirements of the heating elements.

For the PW5125 3000e and 3000g RM models only. Plug the detachable

UPS power cord into the input connector on the UPS rear

panel.

Install a 16A plug on the other end of the cord that meets your

local

electrical code requirements for the AC power source.

9. Plug the UPS power cord into a power outlet. All front panel

indicators flash briefly and the UPS conducts a self-test.

When the self-test is complete, the



indicator flashes,

indicating the UPS is in Standby mode with the equipment

offline. If the alarm beeps or a UPS alarm indicator stays on, see

Table 8 on page 52.

10. Press and hold the On

button until you hear the UPS beep

(approximately one second). The



indicator stops flashing

and the load level indicators display the percentage of load

being applied to the UPS.

The UPS is now in Normal mode and supplying power to your

equipment.

NOTE The batteries charge to 90% capacity in approximately 3 hours. However, it is

recommended that the batteries charge for 24 hours after installation or long-term

storage.

NOTE If more than two EBMs are installed, an external battery charger is

recommended for faster recharge times.
