1. Preliminary operations
1.2 Storage
In the following situations:
- installation not immediately after delivery;
- de-installation and storage while awaiting relocation,
place the device in covered premises that are protected from direct contact with atmospheric agents and dust. The
following environmental values are those allowed in the storage area:
Temperature: -25 ÷ + 70 °C
Relative humidity: 30÷90 % max.
For the installation of a battery cabinet, if provided with the uninterruptible power supply, follow the
instructions given in the specific manual.
The list of material provided may vary depending on the order specifications. As a general rule, the packaging
should include the following: this manual, the installation drawing, the warranty and eventual accessories.
1.3 Handling
The equipment must only be handled by adequately trained personnel. It can be unloaded from the vehicle and put
into place by lifting the box or the wooden deck to which the equipment is secured with a fork-lift truck. A
transpallet or fork-lift truck should be used for the permanent positioning of the equipment, in accordance with the
instructions provided below.
0MNMPTK10NPENUA Pag. 9 / 57
1 Insert the forks of the fork-lift truck in the lower part of the device, from the front or back, and ensure
that they stick out about 30 cm on the other side.
If a transpallet is used, raise the device only as much as is strictly necessary.
2 Secure the device to the transpallet or fork-lift before moving it.
Risk of overturning
In order to avoid the risk of the device overturning, ensure that it is firmly secured to the transpallet or
fork-lift truck by means of appropriate ropes before moving it.
When being moved the cabinet should be handled with care; knocks or drops can damage it. Once in position,
remove the packaging carefully in order not to scratch the device.
The packaging should be removed as follows:
2. Installation environment
The MPT NP and the battery cabinet have been designed for indoor installation. The choice of premises for
installation should comply with the points set out below.
ensure that the floor can support the weight of the MPT NP and of any battery cabinet that may be
used;
avoid dusty environments;
avoid narrow environments that could hinder normal maintenance operations;
avoid placing the device in areas exposed to direct sunlight or heat;
ensure that the ambient temperature conforms to the following:
minimum operating temperature: 0 °C
maximum temperature for 8 hours a day: + 40°C
average temperature for 24 hours: + 35°C
max relative humidty: 90 % without condensation
Max installation height: 1000 m at rated power
(-1% power for every 100 m above 1000 m) max 4000 m
Pag. 10 / 57 0MNMPTK10NPENUA
2.3 Cooling of the premises
The recommended operating temperature for the lifetime of the UPS and of the batteries is between 20 and 25°C.
The lifespan of the battery depends on the operating temperature; with an operating temperature of between 20°C
and 30°C, the lifespan of the batteries is halved.
A heat dissipation system is required to keep the temperature of
the premises housing the equipment within the field 20÷25°C.
The heat dissipation needed for the correct operation of the UPS is
brought about by the air current made by the fans located inside
the UPS (forced convection) and by the air around the side panels
(natural convection).
The standard EN 50272-2 for air change envisages that the minimum opening must satisfy the following equation:
(*) for open vase or nickel batteries, contact the battery manufacturer.
When the equation is applied for 240 element (40 battery) hermetically-sealed lead batteries:
A = 336 x C10 / 10³ [cm²]
When using 120Ah batteries, the minimum aperture should be approximately:
A = 41 [cm²]
The air intake and outlet must be positioned to ensure the best possible circulation; for example:
- apertures on opposite walls,
- a minimum distance of 2 m when they are on the same wall.

3.1.2 Selectivity
The system where the UPS is inserted must be set up in such a way that in the event of a shortcircuit on one of the
lines downstream of the UPS, the fuse on the output opens while the upstream fuse normally works. This is known
as selectivity, and ensures that the
remaining feeders maintain the H
power supply.
SWBY
SWOUT
LOAD
SWIN
With mains power supply the output fuse must be selective with the input fuse; the condition is verified for the
following values:
kVA 10 15 20 30 40 60 80
rated output current: [A] 14,5 22 29 43 59 87 116
type gG fuse used at the bypass input 20 25 32 50 80 100 125
(as shown in the table of connections) [A]
maximum fuse at the UPS output for selectivity:
fuse size for type gG fuse [A] 10 16 20 32 50 63 80
fuse size for type aM fuse [A] 6 8 10 16 25 36 40
At least two feeders are necessary in order to use the UPS at rated load with fuses of type gG.
With battery power supply ( first fault) in the event of a shortcircuit on one of the outputs (second fault) it must be
possible for the fuse to be open before the inverter shuts down.
If the shortcircuit is of the three-phase type, the inverter can supply a current for 1 second that is 1.8 times the value
of the rated current of the UPS output (with a single phase shortcircuit the current is around 3 times the value).
In the worst-case scenario, that is a three-phase shortcircuit then a smaller current, the condition occurs if:
kVA 10 15 20 30 40 60 80
rated output current: [A] 14,5 22 29 43 59 87 116
shortcircuit current (three-phase) 1.8 times the rated output current for 1 second
maximum fuse at the UPS output for selectivity:
fuse size for type gG fuse [A] 6 10 12 16 20 25 32
fuse size for type aM fuse 2 4 4 6 10 12 20
At least three or four feeders are necessary in order to use the UPS at rated load with fuses of type gG.
To sum up, when there is a shortcircuit on the output, there are two alternatives if only the line affected by the
shortcircuit is to be isolated; let us consider the example of the 20kVA:
selectivity with both mains power supply and battery power supply;
the load has to be shared between at least three feeders, each sized at 33% of the rated power.
0MNMPTK10NPENUA Pag. 13 / 57
3.1.3 Battery
Battery cabinet
For connection to the UPS, the battery cabinet must have an overcurrent protection device and a
disconnecting device.
The function of the fuses is to protect the batteries and the cables from a shortcircuit between the battery cabinet and
the UPS. The following rules should be observed for their sizing:
if rapid fuses of the type gl / gG are installed: the maximum size of fuse to be used is 2 times the
battery capacity in Ah.
If ultra rapid fuses of the type aR are installed: the maximum size of fuse to be used is 2.5 times
the battery capacity in Ah.
For example: the following fuses may be used for batteries of the type 65Ah: 125A type gl/gG or 180A type aR.
For the section of the cable for the UPS to battery connection refer to the following current value:
[kVA] 10 15 20 30 40 60 80
battery
Permanent battery eq. Current [A] 25 38 50 80 109 168 225
If the MPT NP protection against electric shock uses differential current devices (RCD), these have to have the
following characteristics:
- Sensitivity 300mA
- sensitive direct current and unidirectional components (class A or class B)
- insensitive to transient current pulses
- delay greater than or equal to 0.1 s.
In the standard version (SWBY close), without an input separation transformer, the neutral originating from the
mains is connected to the UPS output neutral. The system neutral point treatment is not modified:
neutral
The neutral point treatment is only modified if a barrier is present or when the UPS operates with the
neutral isolated upstream (SWBY open)
When operating in the presence of mains supply, a differential breaker (RCD) installed on the input will intervene
as the output circuit is not isolated (with SWBY close)from the input circuit.
When operating without mains supply (from battery with SWBY) the input differential breaker will intervene only
if it is able to switch as a result of leakage current without any voltage at its poles (for example a differential breaker
with an auxiliary relay is not suitable). However it is possible to install additional differential breakers on the output
of the UPS, possibly coordinated with those on the input.
Pag. 14 / 57 0MNMPTK10NPENUA
3.1.5 Backfeed protection
The MPT NP is provided with a device to prevent voltage backfeed on the input line due to an internal fault. This
protection device works by switching off the inverter if the current flow is faulty, thereby causing voltage backfeed
on the by-pass line during operation from the inverter. If the fault occurs when the UPS is operating from the
battery, the load will not be powered.
Should it be required to avoid the shutting down of the inverter in order to keep the load powered by the inverter
even in the event of a double fault, the system can be customized to control the opening coil of a switch located
upstream by reprogramming one of the relays on the “REMOTE COMMANDS AND ALARMS” card.
The control logic allows the function of the relay to be reconfigured, for example for the backfeed alarm, and then
the free voltage contact can be used to control the triggering of a switch located on the UPS input.
The UPS is pre-set to be connected to a remote emergency power off device as laid down in standard EN 62040-1-
2. If the remote device (not supplied with the equipment) is activated, the inverter output voltage is cut.
The connection procedure is shown below.
UPS
On the UPS , the jumper on the EPO terminals (page 19) must be removed, and the wires from the auxiliary contact
of the button must be connected in place of the jumper.
The contact must be closed with the button in the rest position and must open when the button is pressed.
0MNMPTK10NPENUA Pag. 15 / 57
3.2 Mains, load and battery connections
The operations described in this chapter must be carried out exclusively by a specialized technician.
The first connection to be made is the earth conductor.
THE MPT NPMUST NOT OPERATE WITHOUT AN EARTH CONNECTION
Before making the connection, open all the switches on the device and ensure that the UPS is completely isolated
from the power sources: battery and AC power line. More specifically, check that:
- the UPS input line or lines are completely isolated;
- the battery cabinet disconnector / fuse (if present) is open;
- all the UPS disconnectors - SWIN, SWBY, SWOUT and SWMB - are in the open position;
- check with a multimeter that there are no dangerous voltages on the terminal board.
For connection of the power cables to the terminal boards, refer to the “INSTALLATION DRAWINGS”
provided with the UPS and with the battery cabinet, if present.
Input neutral
The power supply to the MPT NP input (by-pass line) must be three-phase with neutral.
The neutral conductor is necessary only on by-pass line.

3.4 Connection of signals and remote commands
To the position of the signal and remote connection, refer to the “INSTALLATION DRAWINGS” supplied with
the UPS.
If the jumper on the connector is opened, the voltage on the UPS output
will be cut.
The UPS is factory-fitted with the EPO terminals shortcircuited. If this
input is used, the UPS can be shut down in a hazardous situation from a
remote position simply by pressing a button.
If only the power supply is removed, for example by opening the switch
of the power supply panel, the UPS will keep the load powered using
the energy in the batteries.
The card is equipped with a terminal board with 12 positions which has the following:
The functions of the three contacts and the command may be reprogrammed via the display panel. The ALARMS
and the COMMAND are factory-set in the following way:
- ALARMS
- RL1 Bypass / fault, the contact changes position when the UPS switches the load onto
the by-pass line either during normal operation (e.g. due to overload) or as a
result of a fault in the inverter stage;
- RL2 Battery discharging, the contact changes position when the load is powered from
the battery due to a mains power failure;
- RL3 End of battery discharge, the contact changes position when, during a mains
outage, the remaining time for battery discharge has reached the minimum value
defined. Once this time has passed, the load will remain unpowered (the factory-
set end of discharge pre-alarm value is 5 minutes);
- COMMAND
- In “NORMAL OPERATION”,
if the INVERTER OFF command is received, the UPS switches the power
supply of the load onto the by-pass line (load is not protected should there be a
mains outage).
- In “EMERGENCY OPERATION”,
if the STOP INVERTER command is received, the UPS shuts down (load is not
powered).
With the jumper present, the UPS remains switched on the by-pass line when the
mains power supply is restored.
With no jumper present, the UPS will restart in NORMAL OPERATION.

3.4.6 REMOTE ALARMS (optional card)
The function of this accessory is to convert external signals from the MPT NP(e.g. temperature of environment,
temperature of battery premises, etc.) into signals by means of relay contacts or via serial output RS485 in
MODBUS protocol.
It has the following characteristics:
- 8 inputs (e.g. humidity, smoke, etc. sensors)
- communication with the UPS via serial port
- 8 relays configurable with 8 events on the MPT NP
- RS232 output port with configurable messages
- RS 485 output port MDBUS /JUBUS with configurable messages.
The remote panel allows the UPS to be monitored from a distance and the user to have a detailed overview of the
state of the machine in real time. Using this device, it is possible to keep the electrical mains, output and
battery measurements etc, under control and to detect any alarms.
For details relative to use and connection, refer to the specific manual.
Two independent systems may be configured with Dual Bus with a single source or a separate source.
The synchronization option (UGS) keeps the outputs of the two systems always synchronized, regardless of the
input variations and when the system is running from the battery. Each system may be made up of a maximum of 4
parallel-connected UPSs. This system has been designed for configurations using STSs (Static Transfer Switches)
since this guarantees switching from one uninterruptible source to another without affecting the loads.

3.5 Start-up procedure
The operations described in this chapter must be carried out exclusively by a specialized technician.
The MPT NP output terminals will be powered in this phase and all applications connected will receive
voltages. All users must therefore be warned before carrying out the start-up procedure.
Once the INPUT/OUTPUT and battery cables have been connected to the UPS terminals and before putting the
switch cover back in place, check that:
all the input/output terminals are securely tightened;
all the fuseholders have the fuse inserted, and are in the closed position;
the input and output protection conductor is connected correctly (yellow/green earth cable);
check the polarity of the battery connections.
Configure the value of the battery capacity according to the instructions on “Display and control panel”
manual.
battery capacity
It is important to insert the correct battery capacity value, since this value is used by the system logic to
calculate the backup time.
If not set otherwise, this value is assumed to be equal to the UPS power. e.g. at 100kVA the value set by
default is 100Ah .
After the start-up operations have been completed, perform a manual battery test:
press button 3 and then 2 on the control panel. At the end of the test, after approx. 8 seconds, with the UPS
started correctly and with the battery connected on the signals and control panel, the two green input and
output LEDs must be on constant.
SWMB
The disconnector SWMB must not be closed during normal operation of the MPT NP.
SWMB should only be closed during UPS maintenance operations in order to keep the load powered (see
the instructions on page 30).
Pag. 26 / 57 0MNMPTK10NPENUA
When the UPS is first started up, it is in on-line mode (see page 28 ). See “Display and control panel”
manual, to set Standby-on / Smart active operating mode.
configurations
Contact the technical support personnel for other operating modes.
Once the UPS has been installed, check that the message NORMAL OPERATION appears on the first line of the
display panel and that the UPS model is displayed in the left-hand corner of the second line according to the coding
shown below:
X000YZZ X MPT NP model
000 output power [kVA]
Y output frequency:
Y=_ output 50Hz
Y=A output 60Hz
Z configuration mode:
Z= __ output frequency = input frequency
Z= _C frequency converter with battery
Z= KS frequency converter without battery
Z= N standby on
Z= F stand by off
Z= S stabilizer
Z= P or p parallel version
Z= B or b parallel version with single battery
After installation, a mains outage even of just a few seconds can be simulated to check operation (the battery
does not need to be charged).
With the UPS in normal operation, open switch SWIN located at the UPS input (rectifier). The buzzer should
sound immediately (with 5=ON) while OUT. (green LED) and BATT. (yellow LED) on the Signals and
Commands Panel should be constantly on.
Check that the load connected to the UPS is powered. In this state, the power supplied to the load is the same as
the energy that was previously accumulated in the batteries. Close input disconnector SWIN to return to normal
operation. The IN. and OUT. LEDs on the CONTROL PANEL will be GREEN.
The batteries will recharge automatically.

3.6 Operating modes
The various equipment operating modes are described below.
setting
The operating mode is set when the MPT NP is installed; it may be changed subsequently but this should
always be done by a specialized technician.
load always powered by inverter, in the event of an input mains failure the load continues to
be powered from the inverter using the energy stored by the batteries.
On – line:
The load is always powered by the inverter, with stabilized voltage and frequency, using
the energy from the mains power supply (INPUT). If there is a fault in the INPUT, the
UPS will switch to the batteries in zero time and the batteries will supply energy to the
inverter to keep the load powered (for the backup time of the batteries). When the INPUT
is restored the batteries will be automatically recharged by the rectifier.
load powered from the mains, in the event of an input mains failure the load is powered
from the inverter using the energy stored by the batteries.
In Standby On or smart active, the load is powered from the by-pass line (if the power
supply line is in the acceptance field); if there is a fault on the power supply line, the load
switches automatically onto the inverter, powered by the battery
Standby On:
the switch from inverter to by-pass line may be immediate (time set = 0) or delayed (up to
180 minutes). For the switch to take place, the by-pass line has to remain in the
acceptance field for the time set. In Standby On mode, the rectifier remains powered and
keeps the batteries charged. If the by-pass line voltage or the frequency go out of the
acceptance field, the load is automatically switched onto the inverter output. With
Standby On operation, the energy dissipated by the system can be reduced, leading to
considerable saving. Before using this function it must be ensured that, in the event of a
mains outage, the load powered can accept an interruption of the power supply of around
2-5 ms, and that it can support any mains interference.
This operating mode is normally used for loads that are not particularly sensitive.
The letter N will be displayed on the second line of the BASIC MENU, near the UPS
model.
Smart Active:
the UPS autonomously activates On-Line or Standby-On operation according to the
quality of the power supply (see the “PERSONALIZ. SMART ACTIVE OPERATION”
menu). When Smart Active mode is activated, the power supply is monitored for a few
minutes, after which, if the voltage has remained within the pre-set values, the output is
switched onto the by-pass line; otherwise the load remains powered by the inverter, while
the observation time is approx. one hour. After this time, provided there has been no
interference, the load switches onto the by-pass line; otherwise the logic starts monitoring
again for approx. one hour. The advantage of this operating mode is its efficiency, which
is greater than 98%.
SMART A will be displayed on the first line of the BASIC MENU, and the letter M will
appear in the second line of the BASIC MENU, near the MPT NP model.

3.6.3 Standby-off (with mains present the load is not powered)
load not powered, in the event of an input mains failure the load is powered from the
inverter using the energy stored by the batteries.
Standby-Off:
if there is a mains power supply, UPS output is zero. The RECTIFIER remains on and keeps
the battery charged. The output voltage is only present when the mains power supply fails.
The system remains with output voltage = 0V while the voltage and the input frequency are
within the acceptance field. When the power supply line is restored, the UPS is automatically
repositioned in Standby-Off mode.
The letter F will be displayed on the second line of the BASIC MENU, near the UPS model.
load powered from the inverter, if there is a mains failure the load is not powered, the
batteries are not present.
Stabilizer:
The load is always powered through the inverter, with stabilized voltage and frequency,
using the energy from the input mains. The batteries are not present. In the event of an
input mains failure, the output of the STABILIZER is not powered.
The letter S is displayed on the second line of the BASIC MENU, near the UPS model.
load powered from the inverter with output frequency different from the input frequency; in
the event of an input mains failure the load may be powered from the inverter using the
energy stored by the batteries, if present.
Frequency converter:
MAINS present, load powered. The load is always powered through the inverter, with
stabilized voltage and frequency, using the energy from the input mains. The by-pass line
is disabled and must not be connected (the connections between the main supply line and
the by-pass line on the input bars must be removed).
SWMB
Do not use disconnector SWMB when the UPS is configured as a Frequency Converter.
N.B.: the disconnector can be padlocked in order to ensure that it is not used.

Using the CONTROLS PANEL (from the basic menu press keys 3 and 5 and the access code 436215), the
following factory-set electrical parameters can be modified within a certain field:
- Language,
- value of the RATED VOLTAGE OUTPUT ,
- BATTERY parameters,
- end of battery discharge pre-alarm,
- shutdown due to power lower than a set value (AUTO-OFF in power),
- daily programmed shutdown (AUTO OFF time),
- acceptance frequency and voltage field on the BY-PASS line,
- by-pass frequency field,
- modem configuration,
- RS232-1 and RS232-2 ports,
- standby-on operation (see page 28 ),
- Smart active operation (see page 28 ),
- date and time.
3.8 Procedure to transfer the load from UPS onto maintenance by-pass.
The sequences of operations to be carried out to place the UPS in maintenance bypass are shown below. The
procedure varies depending on the initial state of the UPS.
Procedure a)
the by-pass line is present and its frequency and voltage are suitable the UPS display panel
indicates NORMAL OPERATION.
1) close disconnecting switch SWMB (the control logic automatically disables the inverter)
2) open all the switches on the device (SWIN, SWOUT, SWBY and the battery cabinet
disconnectors/fuses) and keep only disconnecting switch SWMB (maintenance by-pass line)
closed. The control panel remains off.
N.B.: After carrying out the operations indicated above, personnel must wait around ten minutes for the
capacitors to discharge before working on the inside of the UPS.
In this situation (during maintenance operations), any disturbance (such as a blackout) on the UPS supply
line would have an effect on the equipment powered (since the batteries are deactivated in this state).
Pag. 30 / 57 0MNMPTK10NPENUA
Procedure b)
The by-pass line is outside the acceptance field; the following message is seen on the
display panel:
BYPASS VOLTAGE FAIL or SWBY OFF and green LED 1 will flash (See “Display and control
panel” manual
1) open all the switches on the device (SWIN, SWOUT, SWBY and the battery cabinet
disconnectors/fuses). The control panel will remain off.
2) before closing switch SWMB to connect the loads, ensure that both the frequency and voltage of
the supply line are sufficient to power the connected loads.
N.B.: After carrying out the operations indicated above, personnel must wait around ten minutes for the
capacitors to discharge before working on the inside of the equipment.
After all the maintenance operations, restart the UPS following the instructions in the section on START-UP
PROCEDURE (see page 26). Then open disconnector SWMB (if it was previously closed).
The MPT NP will return to NORMAL OPERATION.
The load is no longer powered, and after a few seconds the signal panel will also shut down.
Use a multimeter to check that no voltages are present on the terminal board.
Follow the instructions in the section on START-UP PROCEDURES (see page 26) to restart the UPS.

3.11 Components of the block diagrams
RECTIFIER
This represents the input stage and its function is to convert the alternating voltage of the power supply line into
direct voltage.
black out
Rectifier start-up can be programmed from
the display panel. The following in input
particular can be set: voltage
The delay in start-up t0 –t1 (this allows a t
non simultaneous start-up of several UPSs
connected to the same mains); setting setting
The time for the start-up, t1–t2 (this avoids
input
oversizing any generator that may be located current
at the UPS input).
t
The rectifier carries out the following
functions: t0 t2
t1
- feeds the inverter with
direct voltage;
- automatically charges the battery;
- optimizes the input power factor by means of an automatic charging system.
The system for the cyclical recharging of the battery has two phases.
The first phase consists in recharging the battery with limited current and increasing voltage (up to the preset charge
value “Vb_max”). This phase is maintained until the battery is fully charged (Batt=100%Ah), which is detected by
measuring the current entering the battery.
In the second phase, with the battery fully charged, the battery charger is deactivated so as to remove any residual
current in the battery in order to lengthen its lifespan and to prepare the rectifier for the optimization of the input
power factor.
A cycle is also automatically effected to check the state of charge and to reintegrate the normal battery auto
discharge.
BATTERY
This is the energy reserve to power the load when power is no longer supplied to the UPS. It is housed in one or
more additional cabinets. The battery cabinet must be provided with a sectioning device and a protection device
(magneto-thermal switch or disconnector with fuses).
The load is powered with the energy accumulated in the battery when there is no MAINS present (black out), or
when the mains goes outside the acceptance field (frequency or voltage). In this phase of operation the energy
required by the equipment connected to the UPS output is supplied by the battery, which has previously been
charged. The alphanumeric PANEL at the front of the UPS shows the expected residual BACKUP TIME,
calculated according to the power supplied and the state of charge of the batteries. The value provided is merely
indicative, since the power required by the connected load may change during discharging. The backup time can be
increased by disconnecting some of the connected equipment. When the remaining backup time goes lower than the
value preset as the END OF BACKUP TIME PRE-ALARM (factory-set at 5 minutes), the buzzer increases the
sound frequency while the yellow BATTERY LED starts flashing; in these conditions it is advisable to save any
work in progress. After this time the MPT NP will interrupt the power supply to the loads.
When the MAINS is restored, the UPS automatically restarts and starts recharging the batteries.
0MNMPTK10NPENUA Pag. 33 / 57
INVERTER
This is the output stage, the function of which is to convert the direct voltage from the RECTIFIER or from the
BATTERY into stabilized sinusoidal alternating voltage. The inverter output is isolated from the input and from the
batteries by a galvanic isolation transformer. The inverter is always working, since the load connected to the UPS
output is always powered by the INVERTER (in NORMAL OPERATION)
STATIC SWITCH
This device allows the synchronized switch, automatic or manual, and in zero time, of the power supply to the load
from a protected line (inverter output) to an unprotected line (by-pass line) or vice versa.
The MPT NP is provided with a device to prevent the backfeed of voltage to the input line after an internal fault,
known as “BACKFEED PROTECTION”.

4. MPT NP in parallel configuration
4.1 Introduction
MPT NP may be connected in a parallel configuration to increase both the reliability of the power supply to the
load and the power available in output. Up to 8 UPSs can be parallel-connected. It is recommended to connect units
of the same power.
The load that can be applied to a system with several
units connected in parallel may be greater than the by-pass by-pass
line
load that can be supported by each individual unit, line
mains mains
thanks to automatic power sharing. The reliability is
only increased provided that the total power of the
system with one unit deactivated remains greater than
the required power. This condition can be achieved
by always adding a redundant unit.
Having a redundant unit means having one more
UPS than the minimum number of elements required Battery Battery
to power the load, so that if a faulty unit is
automatically excluded, power is still supplied
correctly. The UPSs connected in parallel are
coordinated by a card which ensures the interchange
of information. The information is exchanged
between the UPSs via a cable connecting them in a
loop. The loop connection provides redundancy in
the connection cable (communication in the cables
between the individual units). This is the most load

4.2.4 External maintenance by-pass.
In some cases, in order to facilitate maintenance operations of the individual units making up the system, it may be
advisable to install an external maintenance by-pass.
The new disconnector located on the by-pass line (Q2) must be provided with auxiliary contacts (one for each
UPS). The position of the contact is opposite to the position of the switch, thus the contact must be closed when
the disconnector is open.

NOTE: “SWOUT ext” must be provided with an auxiliary contact (open with the switch open and closed with the

Length of the cables
The sum of the lengths of the power supply and output cables must be the same for all units. With
reference to the drawing, these must be: a1+c1 = a2+c2 = a3+c3
a = length of input line cables
b = length of output line cables
The same rule must also be observed with separate power lines: the lengths of the cables of the by-pass
line + output line must be the same between all the UPS connected in parallel.
Lack of compliance with this rule may cause a current imbalance between the UPSs when the load is
powered through the by-pass line.
An overload on the by-pass line of one UPS will lead to a deterioration of the components on that line,
both internal and external to the UPS: that is, the disconnector cables and electronic power components.

4.5 Start-up procedure
Before starting up the whole system for the first time, some tests have to be performed to check that the UPSs are
connected to each other correctly.
A) open all the switches and disconnectors on the UPSs (SWIN, SWBY, SWOUT and SWMB) and on the battery
cabinets.
B) Close SWMB on one unit and check that on all the units:
The voltage present between the corresponding input and output terminals of each UPS is <2Vac. If not,
check that the UPSs are connected to each other correctly.
Once the operation has terminated, open SWMB.
C) Start up UPS1 by closing SWIN, SWBY and SWOUT. Wait until the message “NORMAL OPERATION”
appears on the display.
G) Close SWMB of UPS 1 and check that the whole system switches onto the by-pass line (the bypass LED on
unit1 will flash while it must be on steady on the other UPSs), then open switch SWMB again. Wait a few seconds
then check that the UPS1 returns to “NORMAL OPERATION”.
Repeat this operation for the other units connected.
If this check is positive, close SWOUT on all the units.
Replace the switch block on all the SWMBs so that they are blocked in the open position.
H) At the end of the start-up phase, all the UPSs must be in the “NORMAL OPERATION” condition.
I) Wait approx. one minute from the insertion of the last UPS, then check that with the load not connected the
output power indicated by each unit is <3%.
L) Connect the load in output, wait approx. one minute and then check that the power shared between the various
units is within ±2%.
0MNMPTK10NPENUA Pag. 45 / 57
4.6 Operating modes
Several MPT NP units connected in parallel share the current absorbed by the load between them.
In a system with several UPSs connected in parallel, there is a single MASTER unit and the remaining units will be
SLAVES. The UPSs are all exactly the same and the MASTER is chosen on start-up. The MASTER unit is shown
on the display panel by the capital letter “P” (or “B” in the case of a single battery). The MASTER and SLAVE
units may exchange roles. If a unit goes out of service, e.g. due to an inverter fault, it will automatically be
excluded. The load at this point is shared between the units that are still active; if the power in output is excessive
for the remaining UPSs, the system logic switches all the units, including the UPS that was excluded, onto the by-
pass line.
All the information contained in the section on “operating modes” (page 28 ) in relation to the UPS remains valid
with the addition of the information set out below.
ON LINE OPERATION
The message: “NORMAL OPERATION” is shown on the display panel of each UPS and the letter “P” appears in
the bottom left-hand corner near the indication of the model. This letter is in upper case if the equipment in question
is the MASTER, while a lower case character is displayed if the UPS is a SLAVE.
STAND-BY ON OPERATION
The sharing of the load between the UPSs is linked to the length of the cables, and the rules on the length of the
connections indicated in the section “connections” must be observed. In the event of a mains power failure, the load
is passed onto all the parallel-connected UPSs.
BATTERY OPERATION
OVERLOAD
In this mode too, the devices share the overload equally.
If the load applied to the system is not reduced, the whole system will switch onto the by-pass line. When the
overload is removed, all the units will automatically return to normal operation. If the overload persists, however, it
triggers the external protection devices located at the UPS input on the by-pass line. In this case the load would
remain unpowered.

Example of parallel operation
For the sake of simplicity, the instructions shown below refer to a system with three UPSs, but are equally valid
for more complex systems.

4.7 By-pass for maintenance
Procedure a)
the by-pass line is present and its frequency and voltage are suitable the UPS display panel
indicates NORMAL OPERATION.
1. Pressing keys 3, 6, 4, 7, 2, 6, 3 in succession as shown on the display activates the command for by-
pass with shutdown of the inverter (the UPSs connected to the one in which the code is inserted will be
automatically configured through the parallel cable);
2. check that the whole system switches onto the by-pass line;
3. close all the disconnectors SWMB;
4. open all the switches on the device (SWIN, SWOUT, SWBY and the battery cabinet
disconnectors/fuses) and keep only disconnectors SWMB (maintenance by-pass line) closed. The
control panel remains off.
N.B.: After carrying out the operations indicated above, personnel must wait around ten minutes for the
capacitors to discharge before working on the inside of the MPT NP.
In this situation (during the maintenance operations), any disturbance (such as a blackout) on the UPS
supply line would have an effect on the equipment powered (since the batteries are deactivated in this
state).
Pag. 48 / 57 0MNMPTK10NPENUA
Procedure b)
The by-pass line is outside the acceptance field; the following message is seen on the
display panel:
BYPASS LINE VOLTAGE FAIL or SWBY OFF
1. open all the switches on the device (SWIN, SWOUT, SWBY and the battery cabinet
disconnectors/fuses). The control panel will remain off.
2. before closing switches SWMB and connecting the loads, ensure that both the frequency and voltage
of the supply line are sufficient to power the connected loads.
N.B.: After carrying out the operations indicated above, personnel must wait around ten minutes for the
capacitors to discharge before working on the inside of the MPT NP.
After a few seconds all the MPT NP will return to NORMAL OPERATION.
The hot insertion and removal of the UPS can only take place if the system is configured with the RJ45
female/RJ45 female shielded adaptor cable (as shown in the figures below).
The hot insertion and removal of the UPS makes technical support easier and improves the reliability of the system.
With this procedure it is not necessary to shut down all the UPSs in order to add or remove a unit.
Hot insertion and removal can only be done on systems comprising UPSs with the following characteristics:
The UPS system must be prearranged with a distribution panel (for power connections)
The UPS system must be prearranged with a RJ45 female/RJ45 female shielded adaptor cable (not provided with
the UPS). All the UPSs in the system must have the same firmware version.

5. Maintenance
The uninterruptible power supply is designed and produced to last a long time even in the most severe
service conditions. It should be remembered however that this is electrical power equipment, which
requires periodic controls. Moreover, some components have a limited lifespan and as such must be
periodically checked and replaced should conditions so dictate: in particular the batteries, the fans and in
some cases the electrolytic condensers. It is therefore recommended to implement a preventive
maintenance programme, which should be entrusted to specialized personnel authorized by the
manufacturers.
Our Technical Support Service will be happy to recommend the various personalized options for
preventive maintenance.
Periodic operations (to be carried out by trained personnel and with doors closed)
The following operations (which must be done with the doors closed) should be carried out periodically (e.g. once
a month, or more frequently in particularly difficult environmental conditions):
- Ensure that the air intake slots (located on the front door and at the back of the cabinet) and
the output grilles located on the top of the cabinet are clean;
- Ensure that the UPS is working properly (the message “NORMAL OPERATION” will
appear on the display panel). If an alarm message is displayed, check the meaning in the
manual before contacting the technical support service;
- Perform a battery test with the display panel.
Maintenance inside the UPS may only be carried out by trained personnel.
High voltage is present inside the UPS even when the power supply and the battery have been
disconnected
An electronic board contains lithium cell, this card and all the other card must be replace only by trained
personel.
After disconnecting the power supply line and the battery cabinet, the trained personnel must wait around ten
minutes for the capacitors to discharge before working on the inside of the equipment.
If the batteries need to be replaced, this must be done by a specialized technician. The replaced parts must
be sent to a specialized company for disposal by means of recycling. Batteries are classified by law as
“toxic waste”.
