Test results certify the input and output, AC and DC characteristics of the system. Performance comparisons against specifications include, but are not limited to:

yy Voltage and waveform

yy Voltage regulation

yy Voltage and current harmonics

yy Frequency

yy Current and waveform

yy I/O power factor

yy Efficiency based on kW in and out

yy System switching, control and monitoring functionality

Customers may request special tests in addition to the above.

The Power Test Center for large UPS systems consists of multiple test stations in each of seven test bays. Testing is customized based on the complexity, size and number of UPS components in the configuration, but always includes analysis of every module as well as the entire system. Module and system tests include:

yy Steady-state – 0% to 100% plus overload, unbalanced loading; non-linear loading

yy Dynamic – 0% to 100% step loads plus overload, unbalanced loading; non-linear loading

yy Overload and faults – (>100%, 125%, 150%)

yy Plus other customer-specified special test requirements

Testing on large UPS systems, may include UPS power modules, input and output switchgear, power distribution units, static transfer switches, and battery cabinets

Vertiv Power Test Center Features

yy Eight test bays, each containing multiple distinct test stations.

yy Power test viewing suites overlooking test bays and equipped with displays that project relevant information.

Factory Witness testing for large UPS systems is usually conducted over a period of multiple days. During testing, customers and consulting engineers may oversee the entire process from one of the Power Test Center observation suites which overlook the test bays or in the specific test bay itself. Multiple flat-screen displays offer the ability to present presentations, test data, waveforms, testing procedures and results. Once testing is completed, a report of the results is provided.

The Power Test Center features seven test bays, each containing multiple test stations, where module and complete system analysis is conducted in full view of the customer.

Vertiv™ Power Systems Test Center

The Liebert® Power Systems Test Center is fully equipped to test all of our large UPS systems and related power equipment. These products may include:

On-Site or Remote Viewing of Your Power System Test

The ability to test individual UPS modules as well as complete UPS systems is essential to a smooth, rapid installation and commissioning of large UPS power systems.

Customers and consulting engineers are encouraged to witness the testing in person or to participate in the testing process remotely via the Internet, as an alternate to attending in person. This process allows customers to understand the installation configuration and document the performance of multimodule UPS systems prior to installation. Offering you the UPS industry’s largest power systems testing center is another way that Vertiv™ strives to make sure our product solutions are a perfect match for your critical power requirements.

Testing To UL 1778 Fifth Edition

Testing your large UPS systems to UL Standard 1778 fifth edition will provide you with the assurance that your critical power systems will meet agency requirements throughout the world.
