OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

4.1

Startup Procedures

Before the unit is placed in service after initial installation, after equipment relocation or after 
equipment has been de-energized for an extended period of time, perform equipment inspection 
and startup procedures as detailed in 

2.0 - Equipment Inspection and Startup

 and in 

3.0 - 

Inspection and Startup Checklist

.

After initial system startup, the following guidelines can be used for standard equipment 
operation. These guidelines should be reviewed for any special equipment modifications, special 
site considerations or company policies that may require changes to the standard equipment 
operation.

4.2

Normal System Shutdown

To perform a normal system shutdown, perform an orderly load equipment shutdown according 
to the load equipment manufacturer’s recommended shutdown sequence. The load equipment 
can be turned Off at each piece of load equipment or at the Liebert RX panelboards (circuit 
breaker) located behind the unit’s front door. Turn Off the unit panelboard main breaker. To 
remove all power from the unit, turn Off the building power to the unit.

4.3

Normal System Turn On

Make certain all unit circuit breakers are in the Off position. All unit circuit breakers are located 
behind the front door. Turn On building power to the unit. Turn On the panelboard main circuit 
breakers if supplied. If the circuit breaker has been tripped Off (instead of being turned Off), the 
circuit breaker handle must be moved to the Off position before being turned On. Individually turn 
On each panelboard circuit breaker following the load equipment manufacturer’s startup 
sequence.

4.4

Current Plus Monitoring—Optional

The Liebert RX has a Current Plus Monitoring (CPM) feature that monitors the current and 
voltage of the panelboard. The CPM includes a monochrome liquid crystal display (LCD) with 
power and alarm LEDs, an audible alarm and a Silence push button.
The CPM displays the power parameters and alarms listed below for each panelboard.
The CPM displays circuit identification, the status of each breaker and the following parameters:

Voltage—Line-to-Line

Voltage—Line-to-Neutral

Neutral Current

Ground Current

kVA 

Power Factor

Voltage Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
