— 1 OVERVIEW The ABB PCS100 UPS-I is a high performance high efficiency UPS system that ensures protection from power quality events, enabling continuous power supply to modern industrial processes. To supply continuous power during utility events the PCS100 UPS-I uses a modular energy storage and inverter system.
– Plastic film manufacturing – 1.5. PCS100 Power Protection Portfolio The PCS100 UPS-I is part of the PCS100 Power Protection portfolio, as shown below. Each product is tailored to address specific power quality problems: PCS100 AVC PCS100 UPS-I PCS100 RPC...
When the utility voltage is normal, the load is supported directly by the utility. When a sag, surge or outage occurs, the PCS100 UPS-I immediately transfers the load onto its inverter. Power is provided by battery or Ultracapacitor energy storage.
Figure 2-2: PCS100 UPS-I Single line diagram 2.3 Operation The following diagrams show how the PCS100 UPS-I behaves when a utility disturbance occurs, and what happens when the Fail-Safe Bypass is operating. Note: The following diagrams show a Fail-Safe Bypass. In some PCS100 UPS-I models the Fail-Safe Bypass is integrated and for other models it is optional.
When the voltage returns within user defined limits the PCS100 UPS-I synchronizes with the utility voltage then closes the Utility Disconnect. If required the PCS100 UPS-I can softly transfer the load from the inverter to the utility or generator using the generator walk-in function. Once the load is transferred, power to the load is again supplied by the utility.
2.3.5 Fail-Safe Bypass Operation In an expected or unexpected PCS100 UPS-I shutdown, load current will be transferred to the Fail-Safe Bypass (where fitted). This provides an additional level of security by placing a mechanical contact in parallel with the Utility Disconnect.
Figure 2-8: PCS100 UPS-I installation protecting the complete factory Figure 2-9 shows typical PCS100 UPS-I installation where the PCS100 UPS-I is used to protect a specific load. The PCS100 UPS-I is installed within the LV distribution system, i.e. on the feeder supplying the specific load to be protected.

2200 A and 4200 A Utility Disconnect The 2200 A and 4200 A Utility Disconnect are separate enclosures that also include the main input and output terminals for connecting the PCS100 UPS-I to the utility and the load. DANGER – Hazardous Voltages An Operator must not open doors or panels marked as containing hazardous voltages.
Isolation of the inverter common mode voltages from the utility. – CAUTION The star point of the coupling transformer must be connected to the supply neutral. The star point is the neutral reference while the PCS100 UPS-I inverter is discharging.
The Float Charger also allows Ultracapacitor based systems to start from a completely discharged state. Note: For the smallest PCS100 UPS-I systems without a separate Coupling Transformer Enclosure (frame size 1xB) the Float Charger is installed in the Termination Enclosure.
Each inverter module has a unique identification number (1 - 32) which is displayed on the front of the module. The inverter cooling fans are switched off most of the time. They switch on when the PCS100 UPS-I is discharging and remain switched on for about 30 seconds afterwards.
ABB recommend installation of a maintenance bypass for this purpose. 5.1.11 Intergrated Fail-Safe Bypass The PCS100 UPS-I with 900 A Utility Disconnect have an integrated Fail-Safe Bypass inside the Utility Disconnect module in the form of normally closed contactors. 5.1.12...

The energy required to open or close the switch-disconnector is supplied via an internal spring which is charged by an integrated motor. The PCS100 UPS-I will not attempt to open the FSB unless the ACB closing spring is charged. This ensures that the FSB can re-close immediately whenever required.
The amount of energy storage required depends on the load kW rating, and autonomy period (seconds). The autonomy period is the period of time the PCS100 UPS-I can supply rated load from its energy storage. The required number of enclosures increases with the PCS100 UPS-I rating and autonomy period. Each energy storage enclosure includes its own DC circuit protection.

9 ADVANCED FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS 9.1 Voltage Event Detection The PCS100 UPS-I is classified as a single conversion UPS of the type VFD according to IEC62040-3. That is, the voltage and frequency are protected but are dependent on the supply in normal operation.
The thresholds for this detection are set by parameters 530 RMS Sag Threshold and 531 RMS Surge Threshold with the supply voltage set point parameter 121 Utility Voltage. When the RMS detection is triggered the PCS100 UPS-I will display “127 Discharge RMS” in the event log. 9.1.2...
PCS100 UPS-I set points. The PCS100 UPS-I is classified as VFD SX 211 for rated powers below 450 kVA and VFD SS 211 for rated powers above 450 kVA according to IEC 62040-3.
Energy Storage 9.3 Redundancy The PCS100 UPS-I inverter consists of multiple 150 kVA PCS100 inverter modules connected in parallel. If one inverter module fails the PCS100 UPS-I will reconfigure itself to operate with the remaining modules. A maximum of 50% of the modules can fail before the PCS100 UPS-I will trip out.
PCS100 UPS-I system. The PCS100 Inverters send power from the utility supply to replenish the Energy Storage following any significant discharge operation. Once the PCS100 UPS-I is On Line the PCS100 Inverter fast charging will charge energy storage from 554 V to the maximum storage voltage.
Figure 9-2: PCS100 UPS-I combined with stand-by generator The PCS100 UPS-I needs to support the need to transfer load back to a generator supply from the energy storage mode of operation. However, a step transfer of load to generator (or weak utility supply networks) will result in the voltage and/or frequency disturbance on the generator terminals exceeding the transfer threshold.

16.2 Short Circuit Protection The power system fault current (kA) must not exceed the fault capacity of the PCS100 UPS-I. A circuit breaker that is set to clear a short circuit failure (within the PCS100 UPS-I’s withstand period) is required. For PCS100 UPS-I fault capacities and withstand periods refer to the model tables earlier in this catalogue.
Mechanical air circuit breakers (ACBs) do not provide any sub-cyclic current limitation in short circuits and are usually slower than MCCBs. The ABB Emax series is specified to clear in 70 ms, but EMax2 is specified to clear in only 40 ms. Other ACBs may be slower than this and protection relays may add to the time. ACBs are applied to systems from about 1500 A and above, where MCCBs are less commonly available.
ABB requires the input and output breakers of a maintenance bypass to be lockable for an ABB service personnel to carry out any work on the PCS100 UPS-I. Please note that ABB LV breakers do not provide this as standard but as an option.
PCS100 UPS-I discharging mode. As fast charging of batteries through PCS100 UPS-I Inverters can be up to 30 minutes additional load on supply transformer should be taken in consideration.
