Operating modes
Several CPS units connected in parallel share the current absorbed by the load between them.
In a system with several CPSs connected in parallel, there is a single MASTER unit and the remaining units will be
SLAVES. The CPSs are all exactly the same and the MASTER is chosen on start-up. The MASTER unit is shown on
the display panel by the capital letter “P” (or “B” in the case of a single battery). The MASTER and SLAVE units may
exchange roles. If a unit goes out of service, e.g. due to an inverter fault, it will automatically be excluded. The load at
this point is shared between the units that are still active; if the power in output is excessive for the remaining CPSs, the
system logic switches all the units, including the CPS that was excluded, onto the by-pass line.
All the information contained in the section on “operating modes” (page 25 ) in relation to the CPS remains valid with
the addition of the information set out below.
ON LINE OPERATION
The message: “NORMAL OPERATION” is shown on the display panel of each CPS and the letter “P” appears in the
bottom left-hand corner near the indication of the model. This letter is in upper case if the equipment in question is the
MASTER, while a lower case character is displayed if the CPS is a SLAVE.
STAND-BY ON OPERATION
The sharing of the load between the CPSs is linked to the length of the cables, and the rules on the length of the
connections indicated in the section “connections” must be observed. In the event of a mains power failure, the load is
passed onto all the parallel-connected CPSs.
STAND-BY OFF OPERATION
In this mode, if there is a mains power outage, the devices share the load equally; the load is not powered with the
mains present.
STABILIZER WITHOUT BATTERY OPERATION
In this mode, the devices share the load equally.
BATTERY OPERATION
One battery for each CPS
Each unit draws the energy from its own battery. At the end of its backup time each CPS excludes itself. The load
remains unpowered if the duration of the mains outage is greater than the backup time of the whole system. When the
mains is restored the system will restart automatically. Each CPSrecharges its own battery.
One battery for all the CPSs.
Each unit draws the energy from the common battery. At the end of the backup time, the whole system excludes itself.
The load remains unpowered if the duration of the mains outage is greater than the backup time of the whole system.
When the mains is restored the system will restart automatically. Each CPS recharges the common battery.
OVERLOAD
In this mode too, the devices share the overload equally.
If the load applied to the system is not reduced, the whole system will switch onto the by-pass line. When the overload
is removed, all the units will automatically return to normal operation. If the overload persists, however, it triggers the
external protection devices located at the CPS input on the by-pass line. In this case the load would remain unpowered.
