INTRODUCTION
The Uninterruptible Power Supply EVO STAR provides critical loads with continuous
computer grade power. Reliability and performance are the key design considerations. The UPS
design also maximizes isolation of the load from disturbances and interruptions, minimizes
maintenance and repair time with its slide out modular system, and provides monitoring of
significant system operating characteristics.
Proper installation and operation of the UPS are equally important factors in system
reliability. This manual provides complete information on installation, operating and
preventative maintenance of the UPS and Battery Cabinet. Illustrations showing the function of
all operator controls, instruments, alarms and indicating lights are also given.
This manual is for EVO STAR from 10 to 50 Kva.

CAUTION!
EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
If there is an emergency it is possible to disconnect the power supply charge by switching
off all the switches on the control panel. On the machines that are equipped you may press the
E.P.O. button.
PEOPLE HIT BY ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE
Ask immediately for the help of a qualified and trained person.
When a rather high voltage and high intensity electric hit a body current this can provoke
burns. The burns appear in and around the areas where the current enters and exits the body.
Even if only small burns are visible on the skin, the tissues beneath could be seriously
damaged. In any case, and however serious the burn may be, NEVER TOUCH the injured
person with bare hands until you are sure that the electricity has been cut off.
SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS
Redness, edema, skin burns or skins carbonisation in the areas where the electricity
entered and exited the body.
The person may loose consciousness.
The person may stop breathing or his/her heart may stop beating.
Shock symptoms.
FIRST AID
Cut off the power supply and move the injured person away from the source of contact. Call
immediately for an ambulance and, if necessary, for the help of a technician specialised in
electrical equipment.

PEOPLE WHO HAVE COME INTO CONTACT WITH CORROSIVE LIQUIDS
Ask immediately for qualified expert help.
All batteries installed in this system are completely dry and no corrosive liquids leak out of
their cases if the batteries are in perfect condition. If the storage batteries get damaged in any
way, this could provoke the leakage of the electrolyte or a short circuit of the internal cells; the
electrolyte is corrosive and causes burns.
SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS
A piercing sensation on the skin.
The skin will appear reddened sometimes with small blisters and exfoliation.
FIRST AID
Place the injured area under a strong jet of cold running water for at least 10 minutes so as
to avoid further damage to the tissues.
N.B. Make sure that the water can flow away freely as the substance that caused the burn
contaminates it. While swilling the injured area be careful not to splash yourself with
contaminated water. Call for an ambulance immediately.
.
If the electrolyte comes into contact with eyes you must intervene immediately by washing
them with running water until expert medical help arrives.
If the battery electrolyte is swallowed it is advisable to make the injured person drink plenty of
milk or water.
IN ALL CASES ASK FOR EXPERT MEDICAL HELP

3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 OPERATING PRINCIPAL
The U.P.S. is a continuous double conversion system with an output transformer. It works
by carrying out a continuous double conversion of the main supply, guaranteeing a constant
stablized supply of both voltage and frequency, maintaining charge and control of the batteries
(On-line functioning). In order to guarantee continuous supply when the voltage of the electric
system are no longer correct, power is drawn from the batteries. The system is supplied
complete with an automatic static commutator that connects the output to the back-up power
supply, or if there are special alarms such as the E.P.O. (Emergency Power Off) it shuts down
completely output voltage.
3.1 DESCRIPTION AND PARTS
During normal functioning (picture 5) the system takes power from the mains by means of the input terminal (1).
The voltage goes through the disconnecting switch (point 4) and the fuse board (point 6/a) in order to reach the rectifier
module (point 7), exiting which is a continuous controlled voltage available to charge or maintain battery efficiency
through the fuse (6/b) and the “battery disconnecting switch” (point 8) and to the inverter input (11). This step is to
generate a three-phase voltage, stabilized and synchronized with the back-up voltage. The static commutator (11) selects
the power source to power the load, usually on inverter (10). If there is an increase of output current or with specific
alarms, the device (12) will commutate to the emergency supply (7) maintaining output continuity. If transferring takes
place, output continuity is allowed by the synchronism of the voltages generated with the emergency voltage. If
asynchronous commutation should take place there will be a power “dip” for maximum 20 ms.
When the power supply is not in the set parameters, the equipment maintains output voltage by taking power from the
batteries (picture 9). The system is provided with a current control that keeps the current inside set parameters in the
event of current overloaded.

3.1.1 RECTIFIER
The rectifier, indicated in picture 5 with the abbreviation RECT. transforms alternating current voltage of the main
line to direct current voltage. Its engineering allows, through a six pulse absorption, to feed the inverter in its status of
maximum voltage output at the same time as the battery charge.
Normally, direct current voltage is constantly set at 436Vdc (sustaining voltage), but when recharging the batteries,
this voltage will be automatically limited by a current limiter.
3.1.2 INVERTER
The inverter, indicated in picture 5 with the abbreviation INV., has the role of transforming direct current voltage,
taken from the rectifier output, into sinusoidal voltage, which may be used by the user. This process is carried out by
using power semiconductors, piloted by a PWM signal, which through a transformer and a capacitance filter give us a
very stable three-phase voltage with a harmonic distortion lower than one unit.
The controlling logic of the inverter also controls output current intensity limiting it to a value which
corresponds to 150% nominal current voltage

3.1.3 STATIC COMMUTATOR
The static commutator indicated in picture 5 as B.S., is a commutator made with semiconductors which can select
which power source to connect appliances to. During normal functioning the U.P.S. output is taken at the inverter output
(U.P.S. on-line), but if there is an internal or external event it will commute to the reserve system.
Commutating from one source to another occurs without creating voltage “dips” only with
conditions of synchronism between inverter output and the reserve system. If there is forced
commuting, without synchronism, decided by the user, this will occur with a voltage dip of max.
20 Sm.
Commuting Conditions on inverter:
1. Inverter switched on and working and synchronized with the
reserve system
2. Loss of system
3. Voluntary forcing through control panel
Commuting Conditions on reserve:
1. Malfunctioning of the inverter
2. Current overcharge
3. U.P.S. switched off
4. Voluntary forcing through control panel
5. By-manual closing of the breaker
3.2 DESCRIPTION AND PARTS
During normal functioning (picture 6) the system takes power from the mains by means of
the input terminal (B). The voltage goes through the disconnecting switch and the fuse board
in order to reach the rectifier module (C), exiting which is a continuous controlled voltage
available to charge or maintain battery efficiency and to the inverter input (E). This step is to
generate a three-phase voltage, stabilized and synchronized with the back-up voltage. The
static commutator (F) selects the power source to power the load, usually on inverter (E). If
there is an increase of output current or with specific alarms, the device (F) will commutate to
the emergency supply (A) maintaining output continuity. If transferring takes place, output
continuity is allowed by the synchronism of the voltages generated with the emergency
voltage. If asynchronous commutation should take place there will be a power “dip” for
maximum 20 ms.

When the power supply is not in the set parameters, the equipment maintains output
voltage by taking power from the batteries (Picture 7). The system is provided with a current
control that keeps the current inside set parameters in the event of current overloaded.

3.3.1 BREAKERS
The U.P.S. has a system of breakers, which allows the user to carry out the necessary
operations in order to use and carry out maintenance on the equipment and to shut down the
power supply if there is an emergency. A sticker placed on the second access specifies the
name of each switch near the switch itself. The by-pass switch contains a protection device so,
as it cannot be disconnected inadvertently. The user can remove this protection device if
he/she decides to carry out a manual by-pass (Chapter 5).
1. MAINS SWITCH Break the mains supply, as specified in point 1 (picture 6).
2. RESERVE SWITCH Break the secondary power supply, as specified in point 7 (picture 6).
3. MANUAL BY-PASS Short-circuits the secondary input with the output.
4. OUTPUT SWITCH Break the loading power supply.
5. BATTERY SWITCH Break, according to the model, one or both battery polarities.
3.3.2 FUSES
The U.P.S. includes a system with two fuse groups, both counting three fuses each which
are able to disconnect electrical power input (points 1 and 7 picture 6), when the electrical
power is not within the set parameters. The type of fuse, which is used, guarantee quick
intervention and therefore are a guarantee also for optimum protection of the internal devices.
Furthermore, there is also a fuse on the line, which connects the U.P.S. to the batteries (point
6 picture 6), both for internal and external batteries.
Picture 12
Board A, (picture 12), to the user’s left, protects the state of the rectifier input, board B
(picture 12), to the user’s right, protects the reserve line. Whereas the single-fuse board C
protects the battery line.

3.3.2.1 REPLACING THE FUSES
CAUTION!: ALL CONNECTING PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN THIS
CHAPTER MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY AUTHORIZED ELECTRICIANS OR BY
QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS.
CAUTION!: BEFORE REPLACING THE FUSES YOU MUST CARRY OUT THE
MANUAL BY-PASS PROCEDURE WITH THE U.P.S. DISCONNECTED
(CHAPTER 5).
A nut screw fastens each fuse. When replacing a fuse you must unscrew the two knurled
nuts corresponding to the fuse, which must be replaced, remove the washers, replace the fuse
and put back the washers and the knurled nut in this order. IMPORTANT spare fuses are
supplied together with the U.P.S. If they have to be purchased please make sure that they are
extra-fast fuses for the current same as on machine so as to guarantee total protection.
3.3.3 TERMINAL CONNECTORS
3.3.3.1 POWER UP TO 50 KVA
In all the models the terminal board is on the front of the U.P.S. protected by the second
access.
It can be perpendicular or horizontal according to the model.
In any case, please refer to the alphanumeric specifications on the terminal board. The
jumpers are arranged as in the picture (highlighted in grey), and are used to short-circuit the
main input and the reserve input. According to the type of installation, you can remove them
to connect the system to an auxiliary power source (back-up supply, generator).

3.4 CONNECTING THE U.P.S. TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
CAUTION!: ALL CONNECTING PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN THIS
CHAPTER MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY AUTHORIZED ELECTRICIANS OR BY
QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS.
CAUTION!: THE U.P.S. NEED A NEUTRAL WIRE. THE SYSTEM CANNOT
WORK WITHOUT IT.
3.4.1 COMPATIBILITY WITH THE POWER SUPPLY
The parallel connection to the public mains is normally allowed, as the U.P.S. is comparable
to a passive charge. The mains supply must supply a higher power than the U.P.S rated power
as it has to take into account several factors, such as:
1. Power absorbed by the output charge on the uninterruptible power supply
2. System efficiency (see chart 15)
3. Power needed to charge the batteries
4. Input harmonic distortion
If you know the amount of power needed by the connected electrical equipment and you
can evaluate the probable expansion margins it is possible to make a first rough estimate of
the power required. As for the power absorbed by the batteries while charging, you can easily
work out the power required by multiplying 436 times 1/10 of the total battery capacity (E.g.:
For a 40A/h battery space, the power needed to charge the battery will be: 436 X (40 / 10) =
1,744 kW). As for input harmonic distortion please remember that for the power supply the
uninterruptible power supply is to be considered as a non-linear load, which generates
harmonic frequency currents multiples of (50/60 Hz). In function of the line impedance this
creates an harmonic voltage distortion. This latter value (total harmonic voltage distortion)
must not exceed the specific environment reference parameters. There are several ways of
reducing this parameter: by increasing the power supply, the section of power supplies cables
or by choosing an interruptible power supply with specific features (twelve-phase input, with
filter).
Tecnoware Power Systems
EVO STAR 10-50
19
3.4.1.1 INDIRECT POWER SUPPLY
TRANSFORMER
If you are using a system input isolation transformer this will reduce distortion effects and
stop its diffusion in the system. Therefore, apart from decreasing harmonic disturbance you
can also probably avoid oversizing the power supply line.
GENERATOR
Particular attention must be paid when sizing a possible input power unit; this has high
output impedance, which is defined on the rating plate as subtransient reactance of the
alternator. This parameter makes a negligible harmonic current distortion become a seriously
disturbing element for the correct functioning of the U.P.S.
3.4.1.2 INPUT WIRE SIZING
When choosing the wire you must bear in mind a technical, economical and safety
evaluation. Technically speaking, the main factors that affect wire sizing are voltage, current,
overcurrent, temperature and how the wires are laid. However, it is always a good rule to size
the wires so as the voltage drop on each wire is below 3% of the applied voltage. Particularly
important is the sizing of the neutral wire especially when the U.P.S. is used to power
unbalanced loads or loads with strong harmonic distortion. Taking into account these last
remarks, the enlargement factor must be decided according to the size of the phase wire
(usually 1,5-2 times).
3.4.1.3 PROTECTION OF THE U.P.S. OUTPUT LINE
The main electric distribution systems to which the U.P.S. can be connected are the TN-S
and TT systems (pictures 14 and 15). If you do not have this type of equipment please talk to
a specialized technician. The protection devices, which can be applied to the U.P.S. output line,
are against overcurrent and are differential. As for their size, please bear in mind that if there
is a power shortage the U.P.S. works on its own (disconnected from the main line), with a
current restriction equal to 150% of the rated current, therefore in order to protect against
overcurrent you must choose a device that is activated within this threshold. As for differential
protections you must use type A differentials (for alternate current and for switches with
continuous components), which are low sensitivity (0,3–0,5-1 A).
