Operating Modes

The Powerware 9150 block diagram, shown in Figure 16, consists of
several modules, each having its own functions:
: The rectifier/charger converts AC-power to DC-power and keeps the

battery bank fully charged.

: The inverter converts DC-power back to AC-power, which is

delivered to the load.

: The Static Bypass switch transfers the load to bypass when the

inverter is overloaded or cannot power the load.

: The filter protects the load from disturbances in the utility when

power is supplied through the Static Bypass switch.

: The Maintenance Bypass switch is used to bypass the UPS to utility

power during maintenance, service, or startup.
