3.1 Placing the System into Service
This procedure must be performed by a qualified service technician.
To meet North American safety standards, do not change the output voltage and
frequency settings.
3.1.1 Initial Start-Up
Before applying input power, verify the following:
1. AC input and DC output voltages match the voltages as listed on the ACS unit’s nameplate.
2. Load operating voltage complies with the DC output voltage of the ACS charger.
3. Correct polarity of Utility and battery connections.
4. Unit is correctly grounded to building grounding system.
5. Rectifier Modules are installed and operational.
5. Unit connected to load.
6. All input circuit breakers open.
7. All output circuit breakers open.
Apply input power in the following sequence:
1. Apply power to the equipment from the source panel .
2. Turn on AC breaker (turn to ”ON” position) .
The system soft starts by increasing the output current and the voltage. Wait for several
seconds until the system output voltage and status is indicated on the LCD screen. If
calibration of the unit is necessary, refer to the Cordex Controller and Controller Software
manuals for more information.
3. Turn the DC breaker (if supplied) to the ”ON” position.
4. Verify no rectifier alarm conditions are present.
5. Close breakers to load.
3.0 Operation
Perform each step and verify no alarm conditions exist upon completion of the step. If an alarm condition
exists, determine the cause of the alarm and correct before proceeding to the next step.
NOTE:
