9 Power Problems and Their UPS Solutions
Powerware Power Protection Handbook for IBM 9910 International System i and System p Applications
4
UPS Topologies: Online, Line-Interactive, and Standby
Online UPS Technology
Online UPSs are designed to provide complete power
protection. They isolate equipment from all types of power
problems by continuously regulating the AC power for your
systems.
Online UPSs isolate equipment from harmonic distortions and
are strongly recommended for critical applications that must
meet the 5%maximum harmonic requirement (stated in major
computer manufacturer specifications and installation guides).
Battery conservation is an essential factor for a customer
deciding to purchase an online UPS. An online UPS uses the
battery less often than any other UPS technology, therefore
increasing the life expectancy of the battery. Eaton’s robust,
state-of-the-art online UPS provides superior protection for
your communication and networking systems.
Note: Online UPSs provide protection from all 9 power
problems listed on page 5.
Line-Interactive UPS Technology
Line-interactive UPSs offer basic power protection at mid-
range prices. In addition to protection against power failures,
power sags and power surges, line-interactive UPSs protect
against brownouts and electrical line noise. This design offers
low-grade voltage regulation by “boosting” the utility voltage up
or down before passing it through to your electronic system.
Note: Line-interactive UPSs do not provide protection from
power problems 6 – 9 (see page 5).
Standby UPS Technology
Standby UPSs are intended to provide a low price solution for
power failures, power sags and power surges. Utility power is
provided during normal operation. Utility voltage and frequency
changes are not regulated by the UPS and pass through to the
equipment. When voltage or frequency changes become too
severe, the UPS converts DC battery power to AC power to
run the equipment.
Standby UPSs provide protection from simple power problems
as described in items 1, 2 & 3.
Note: Standby UPSs do not provide protection from power
problems 4 – 9 (see page 5).

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What happens if the UPS is overloaded? For example, if the
protected equipment and/or load draws more current than
the UPS can provide.
The UPS transfers the load to bypass (for a few minutes) until the
overload condition is reversed. If the overload condition
continues, the UPS automatically shuts down.
2. What causes a UPS to be overloaded?
There are two possible answers: (1) the UPS was undersized
(e.g. the load is rated at 1200 VA but a 1000 VA UPS was
provided), or (2) the customer plugs more equipment into the UPS
than it was designed to handle.
3. How do you convert watts to VA?
Multiply watts by the power factor 1.3.1000W = 1300 VA
4. How do you convert amps to VA?
Multiply amps by voltage (230 volts in Europe). 10A x 230V =
2300 VA
5. How long does it take for the UPS batteries to recharge?
On average it takes 10 times the discharge time for the UPS
batteries to recover. (A 30-minute battery discharge requires
about 300 minutes to recharge.) After each power outage, the
recharge process begins immediately. It is important to note that
the load is fully protected while the batteries are recharging.
However, if the batteries are needed during the recharge time, the
holdover time available will be less than it would have been if the
batteries were fully charged.
6. Where can I get technical help?
Contact your territory representative, call the IBM
®
UPS Hotline at
+44 (0) 845 177 3410, or visit powerware.com/ibm.
7. What is the average lifespan of the batteries used in the
UPS?
The typical life of batteries in a Powerware UPS with ABM
®
technology is 4 to 6 years. Overall service life depends on a
number of factors, including temperature and the number of
battery discharges.
8. Does the UPS need to have a load on it to charge its
batteries?
The UPS should have a minimum of 10% load for UPS to charge
its batteries. Once connected to a standard supply of electricity
(via input plug or hardwiring), your UPS should charge its
batteries regardless of how much load, if any, is attached to it.
9. If my UPS is in storage, how often should I charge the
batteries?
If a UPS is in storage, we recommend that you plug it in every 6
months to prevent the batteries from becoming fully discharged
and significantly shortening their service life. We recommend that
you follow the same guidelines for charging external batteries.
10. I came across a spare, unused Powerware UPS that we had
in storage. Is it still operable?
If the UPS has been in storage for more than 6 months, the
batteries inside your UPS may be bad. If your UPS has been in
storage without any charge for longer than a year, it’s likely that
the batteries need to be replaced.
11. How can you be sure UPS batteries are in good condition in
order to insure they have maximum holdover in the event of
a power failure? What preventive maintenance procedures
should be done and how often should they be done?
The batteries used in the UPS and associated battery modules
and cabinets are sealed, lead-acid batteries often referred to as
maintenance-free batteries. While this type of is sealed and you
do not need to check the fluid level in the battery, they do require
some attention to assure proper operation. You should inspect the
UPS a minimum of once per year by initiating a self-test of the
UPS.
12. I already have surge protection. Why do I need a UPS?
Surge protection will not keep your business and phones
operational during a blackout. In addition, surge protectors do
nothing to improve the quality of power feeding your sensitive and
expensive telecom equipment. The Powerware UPS provides
perfect, clean power to your equipment at all times. Over time,
poor quality power will degrade your equipment.
13. What’s the difference between a surge protector and a UPS?
A surge protector provides just that—surge protection. In addition
to surge protection, a UPS continually regulates incoming voltage
and provides battery backup in the event of a power failure. You’ll
often see surge protectors plugged into a UPS for added surge
protection and additional output receptacles.
14. We have heard that UPS models greater than 750 VA cannot
be installed behind larger UPS models. Is this true?
No. If you are connecting a UPS to a source other than directly to
the utility, the source (such as another UPS or generator) must be
3 to 5 times larger than the smaller UPS.
15. How much capacity of a UPS should I use?
To allow for future expansion, we recommend that you install a
UPS at approximately 75% capacity. In addition, the batteries
degrade overtime so by over sizing you provide room for error. In
the powerware.com/ibm sizing tool we have included a “capacity
used” column.
16. How is battery runtime impacted if I reduce the load on the
UPS?
There can be a significant increase in runtime. Generally
speaking, a UPS that provides 5 minutes at full load will provide
15 minutes at half load.
17. Why is power quality such a problem today?
Today’s high-tech IT equipment and control units are much more
sensitive to electrical disturbances and are more important to the
critical functions of many businesses than in the past. As a result,
power quality problems today are more frequent and more costly
than ever.
18. Are power quality problems always noticeable?
No. In many cases, disturbances can cause imperceptible
damage to circuits and other components, a major cause of
premature equipment failure and problems like computer lockups.
Many power quality problems go unresolved resulting in lost
revenue and data.

Preventing UPS Problems
The following observations can help you avoid potential problems
with the sale and installation of a UPS. Observation #1 alone will
protect you from a large percentage of problems. If you have any
questions about this information, please contact your Eaton
consultant for IBM UPS sales.
1. Always be sure to advise the customer which wall receptacle
is required to plug in the UPS.
Only UPSs with power ratings up to 1500 VA plug into a standard
15-amp wall outlet. All others require a larger receptacle, which
must be installed by an electrician. Things will go more much
more smoothly if your customers are not waiting for this to be
done after all of their equipment has arrived.
2. Does your customer have the correct set of interconnecting
cords?
For some applications, it’s as simple as plugging the UPS into the
wall socket and plugging the loads into the UPS. However, IBM
9910 applications often require specific interconnecting cords in
order to complete installation. We recommend that you make that
determination before installation to avoid delays.
3. Be sure that the UPS has enough output receptacles.
If the UPS is not equipped with enough output receptacles, you
may need to add a PowerPass Distribution Module or choose
another UPS.
4. Adding batteries to the UPS provides additional battery
runtime only, not added capacity.
If a customer adds equipment to the configuration, a higher rated
UPS may be needed.
With larger UPS models particularly above 3 kVA and for 3-phase
UPS solutions, it is extremely important to make sure that you
review that site at which the UPS will be located. Here are a few
general guidelines:
5. Make sure the UPS, batteries, and options will fit in the
allocated space.
Is there enough room for a technician to service the UPS? Some
customers have limited space.
6. Does the UPS have adequate ventilation?
Most UPS models incorporate internal fans to cool the UPS but
they need to pull cooler air through the UPS to work effectively.
You should not install the UPS in a sealed container or small,
sealed room.
7. Ensure that the UPS can be placed in its final position.
Will the UPS components fit through any doors? Are there any
stairs?
8. Is the floor strong enough?
The UPS and its battery cabinets can be heavy so make sure that
the site has the proper floor loading capacity.
9. Check to see if there is an adequate electrical supply near
the UPS.
Compare UPS fuse ratings (amps) and breaker types and
whether any electrical work may be needed (i.e. cabling to the
UPS terminal block input). The site may have its own electrical
contractors.

How Much Battery Runtime Do You Need?
To meet customer needs of continued operation during power outages, Powerware 9910 UPS solutions
offer options that can extend battery runtimes beyond 60 minutes. In today's 24x7 business environment,
continued availability along with application and safety considerations must be taken into account and
estimated when calculating UPS battery runtimes.
For example, a typical battery runtime is 15 minutes. The recommended formula used to calculate runtime
is: Runtime (calculated in minutes) = business + system application shutdown + safety
Example
Business needs = 5
System (application) shutdown = 6
Safety margin = 4
Total battery runtime required = 15
Business needs: Approximately 80% of power outages are less than 5 minutes in duration. Using 5
minutes will ensure that if the typical power outage is less than 5 minutes, the application will not start a
premature or unrecoverable shutdown. In the example, 5 minutes is used.
System shutdown: The National Power Laboratory (1990-1995) Power Quality Report indicates there
may be consecutive power outages before power continuity is fully restored. By doubling the
system/application time, you allow for two consecutive power outages to occur while providing an
adequate reserve of battery runtime to initiate a safe system shutdown during the second power outage.
In the example, it takes the application 3 minutes to shut down. Doubling the shutdown time results in 6
minutes.
Safety margin: Allows for natural battery charge cycles, temperature variations and aging. Also take into
account variations in business needs. In the example, 4 minutes is used.
Find the correct UPS model then select the runtime required. If the power consumption of the equipment
to be protected is unknown, use the maximum load (Watts) number given for the UPS.
For example, if the load requires less than 2,100 Watts and the runtime is 15 minutes, a valid UPS will be
the E30 with one Extended Battery Module providing 25 minutes of battery backup (autonomy) runtime at
the E30 maximum capacity of 2,100 watts.
Note: The runtime is total (standard internal batteries and optional EBMs), not additive.
