UPS 80 KVA	EN/UPS-02
UPS 20 KVA	EN/UPS-03

Precautions:
- Ensure that the equipment power supply has been disconnected.
- Check the disconnected UPS condition through visual observation.
- Before doing any cleaning /Maintenance on the equipment switch off the main power and put “Under Maintenance” label on the electrical panel.

Frequency:
- Frequency of PM : Half yearly
Check Points:
- Following check points should be ensured during preventive maintenance of UPS system.
- Preventive maintenance shall be carried out as per PM schedule.
- Carry out a spot check of the operator control panel, ensuring that all mimic LED indicators are normal, all metered parameters are normal and no warming or alarm message are present on the display panel.
- Check for obvious signs of overheating.
- Listen for any noticeable change in audible noise.
- Ensure that the ventilation grills around the UPS are unobstructed.
- Check the result of the inspection, noting any discrepancies in remarks.
- Check the battery float charge voltage.
- Check the battery charge current.
- Check the UPS output voltage on all three phases.
- Check the UPS output line currents.
- Clean the equipment thoroughly by using vacuum cleaner.
- Check the indicators of UPS for proper working (showing charging, mains etc.)
- Check all the batteries for proper working.
- Check for loose connections and tighten if any.
- Shut down the UPS following the recommended operating procedure.
- Isolate the UPS input mains supply externally and isolate the battery.
- Ensure that the UPS is totally powered off by checking for voltage at the rectifier input and battery output connections and bypass input connections.
- Gain full access to the UPS interior by opening its internal hinged safety panel.
- Carry out thorough examination of the UPS power components and sub-assemblies, paying particular attention to the following
- Electrolytic capacitors: – Check for signs of leakage, buckling etc.
- Magnetic components: -Check for signs of overheating, security of fixture and signs of delimitation.
- Cables and connections: – check cables for chaffing, fraying or sign of overheating. Check that all printed circuit board connectors are secure.
- Printed circuit boards:- Check the cleanliness and integrity of the circuit boards and replace if any signs of determination are found. Reconnect the UPS input mains power.
- Start the UPS and transfer the load to the inverter following the appropriate operating procedure.
- Record the details as per the Format No.: SOP/EN/XXXYYY “Preventive Maintenance Checklist & Record for UPS System”.
