Installation & Operation
2.0 Scope
This chapter describes installation of the inverters, including receiving, handling, and storage procedures; prerequi-
sites to the installation; installation procedures; and start-up procedures.
2.1 Receiving
Before accepting the shipment from the freight carrier, inspect the exterior surfaces of all shipping containers or
packaging used, and the equipment, for damage that may have occurred during transit. If the shipping containers
or equipment shows evidence of damage, note the damage on the receiving document (bill of lading) prior to signing
for receipt of equipment.
ALL CLAIMS FOR SHIPPING DAMAGE MUST BE FILED DIRECTLY WITH THE CARRIER. Replacements for
damaged components should be ordered through MGE UPS Systems.
2.1.1 Handling
The equipment can be lifted from the top, using the eye-bolts; however, a spreader bar must be used to avoid bending
the bolts or the side panels. The equipment may also be handled using a forklift or pallet mover.
2.1.2 Storage
If the equipment is to be stored prior to installation, it should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location that is
protected from rain, splashing water, chemical agents, etc. The equipment should be covered with a tarpaulin or
plastic wrapper to protect it against dust, dirt, paint, or other foreign materials.
2.2 Prerequisites to Installation
An efficient installation depends on careful planning and site preparation. Installation of the equipment must be
handled by skilled technicians and electricians familiar with the special requirements of high-voltage electrical
equipment. The installation must comply with the requirements of the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70,
latest issue) and local codes as applicable.
We strongly recommend contracting MGE UPS Systems for system start-up. Do not allow unqualified personnel to
handle, install, or operate MGE UPS Systems static inverter systems.
NOTE
The inverter can be mounted close to a rear wall, because there is no rear
access to the unit. All input DC, output AC, and input AC wiring to the inverter
enters through the top or left side of the rack assembly. Service to the inverter
rack is through the front. If a maintenance bypass unit is installed, rear access
is required for this unit.
