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.
