How to check the UPS maintenance bypass switch?

Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems play a vital role in the modern information technology environment, ensuring continuous power supply in the event of a power failure. In the UPS, the Maintenance Bypass Switch is an important component that allows the power supply to pass through the bypass without interruption when the UPS is repaired or maintained. Properly checking the maintenance bypass switch is a critical step to ensure system stability and avoid unplanned downtime. This topic describes how to effectively check the UPS maintenance bypass switch.

main content

Verify that the bypass power supply is normal

Before performing maintenance bypass operations, ensure that the bypass power supply is normal to ensure high security.

Stop inverters

Before performing a maintenance bypass operation, stop all running inverters, usually by pressing the "Inverter Stop" key on the UPS control panel for three seconds.

Turn on the maintenance bypass switch

If the inverter is still running and the bypass power supply does not meet the switching conditions, the load may be interrupted for a short time. When the bypass power supply meets the requirements, close the maintenance bypass switch Q3BP3, switch the inverter output switch Q5N4, and switch the static bypass isolated input switch Q4S.

Check the maintenance bypass switch status

Check whether the maintenance bypass switch is locked. If it is locked, unlock it first. The maintenance bypass switch is OFF by default. Manually turn it to ON.

Observe the indicator change

After the maintenance bypass switch is turned on, observe the indicator change on the UPS control panel to check whether the maintenance bypass switch is successfully turned on.

Ensure safe operation

Since the high voltage components in the UPS may be involved in the operation, these operations should be performed by engineers who fully understand the working principle and have been trained by the original factory.

Completely cut off the input power supply

Before performing maintenance bypass operations, cut off the mains power supply, AC bypass power supply, and battery power supply channels to ensure safety.

Check the UPS operating status

In maintenance bypass mode, loads are directly powered by the mains through the maintenance bypass. If the mains is abnormal, loads may be powered off. Therefore, you need to check the UPS operating status to ensure that loads are not powered off in maintenance bypass mode.

CONCLUSION

Periodically check the UPS maintenance bypass switch to ensure system reliability and stability. Through careful visual inspection, functional testing, and electrical testing, potential problems can be detected in time to avoid normal operation of the UPS at critical times. A well-maintained maintenance bypass switch will help ensure the continuous power supply of critical equipment and improve the safety and efficiency of the overall operation.
