1 I MPORT ANT S AFETY I NSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS This manual co ntains important instructio ns that should be followed du ring installation and ma inte- nance of your Liebert NXL UPS and batteries. This equipment contains circuitry th at is energized with high vol tage. Only test equipment designated for troubleshooting shou ld be use d.[...]

Introd uction 2 1.0 I NTRODUCTION 1.1 General Description The Liebert NXL UPS provides continuous, high-qua lity AC power to your business-critical equip- ment, such as telecommunications and data proce ssing equipment. The Liebert NXL UPS supplies power that is free of the disturbances and vari ations in voltage and frequency common to utility pow[...]

Introd uction 3 1.2.2 Byp ass Mode When the Liebert NXL is in bypass mode, the load is directly supported by utility power and is with- out battery backup protection. The Liebert NXL’s inverter and bypass static switch wi ll shift the load from the inverter to bypass mode without an interruption in AC power if the inv erter is synchr onous with t[...]

Introd uction 4 • Load Bus Synchronization —The Load Bus Sync (LBS) option keeps two independent UPS sys- tems (and therefore their critical load buses) in sync, even when the modules are operating on bat- teries or asynchronous AC source s. This means that critical load s connected to both load buses can switch seamlessly between the two. • [...]
