PROCEDURES SINGLE TLE Series 160 - 500 FUNCTIONING AS FREQUENCY 

CONVERTER 

When the 

TLE Series  160  -  500

  functions as a 

Frequency Converter

, the 

Automatic Bypass

  function  is 

disabled. 

Therefore the 

Load

 cannot be transferred to 

Utility

 in case of overload, short circuit, or 

Inverter

 failure. 

In situations where the UPS needs to be shut-down for maintenance purposes, also the 

Load

 must be 

shut-down or disconnected. 

 

7.2.1

 

Initial Start-up of the TLE Series 160 - 500 as frequency converter 

 

WARNING ! 

Before proceeding to turn on the UPS system, ensure that the AC and DC external 

isolators

 are OFF, and prevent their inadverted operation. 

Ensure that the Output Load distribution  can be powered and all the Output 

Isolators

 are open. 

 

Open the front door and make sure that: 

 

All the 

connections

 to the input/output terminals or bus bars of the UPS have been made correctly. 

 

The 

safety screens

 are fixed in their position. 

 

The switches 

Q1

 and 

CB3 (option)

 are open 

(Pos. O) and the 

“External Battery Protections”

 

must be 

open

 (Pos. O).
