1. INTRODUCTION
This 700VA--3KVA high input power factor UPS system contains two major PCB
assemblies. They are including :
1. PSDR: contains major parts of (1) charger, (2) DC power supply, (3) unit power
factor correction, (4) DC-DCconverter, (5) inverter and (6) output circuits.
2. CNTL : contains major parts of protection, signaling circuits, regulation and control
circuits of inverter
The simplified schematics in figure 1 (3K HV model) shows how the major circuits are
connected and illustrates the overall system functions. The locations of these assemblies in this
machine are shown in figure 2 (3K HV model) .
The block diagram in figure 3, shows the UPS at normal operation from left to right. When a
protection circuit is triggered or a fault condition occurs, the output supply is transferred
immediately from inverter to AC mains by a bypass relay. The operation principle will be
explained in later section.
Basically, these Vanguard UPS system utilizes high frequency PWM techniques to achieve
high efficient performance. This UPS can deliver a clean, regulated sine-wave output at any
load under full load. The sub-systems are described as below:

The power stage consists of charger, unit power factor correction, DC power supply,
DC-DC converter, inverter and output circuits. figure 4 shows the block diagram of power
stage.
i. CHARGER SUB-SYSTEM:
The purpose of charger is to charge and to maintain the batteries at full charged
condition. Refer to figure 5 (3K HV model), the voltage flyback switching power supply
provides a constant DC voltage for batteries. Besides providing constant voltage, the power
supply also limits the current flowing into batteries and therefore protects and prolongs the
life time of charged batteries. The charger voltage is auot-regulated by CPU according to
the temperature.
The input of the DC power supply is connected to the battery bus, i.e., the output of the
charger. The output of DC power supplies provid +12 Vdc for the bias supply of IC's
working voltage and the fan(s) voltage and other requirement. 5V is used for CPU's
working voltage and made by control board through IC7805. The DC power supply works
only when the 12 Vdc regulator supplies Vcc to its control IC. To have proper operation of
12 Vdc regulator, its input power is controlled by the switch as indicated in figure 6 (3K
HV model).
The UPS transfers +,- DC bus voltages to the AC output voltage through an inverter
of half bridge configuration at normal operation. The schematic diagram of inverter is
shown in figure 7 (3K HV model).
To construct a high frequency (19.2kHz) PWM inverter, the drivers receive switching
signals from PWM generation circuit through a pair of photo-couplers to trigger the upper
5
PCM Vanguard
700VA/1KVA/1.5KVA/2KVA/3KVA SERVICE MANUAL
IGBT and the lower IGBT alternately. The output of IGBT's is filtered by an LC circuit to
reduce the o/p voltage harmonics distortion.
The bypass relay receives signal from control circuit to switch the output of the UPS
from bypass to inverter, and vice versa. The output noise filter circuit blocks EMI noise to
the loads.
The purpose of power factor correction (P.F.C.) circuit is to make the input current and
voltage in phase and therefore achieve a high input power factor. The schematic is indicated
in figure 8 (3K HV model).
When the input AC power cord is plugged in and switch on, the AC power goes through
noise filter to the charger and to the line detector, the P.F.C. circuit is enabled and the DC
buses are regulated at 380Vdc for 230VAC series and 190V for 120VAC series.
The major function of the UPS is to deliver accurate AC power to the loads connected
to it whenever the AC line is correct or fails. In this system, the batteries release the stored
energy to supply inverter immediately upon AC line fails.
Refer to figure 9 (3K HV model), the battery voltage is transformed through a push-
pull DC-DC converter to ± 400Vdc (± 200Vdc for 120V series) as DC buses for inverter.
When the line fails, the ± 400Vdc(± 200Vdc) DC sources are caught up to supply the
power needed by the inverter immediately.

These assemblies are the control center of UPS. It is composed of three major circuits as
following.
(1) Regulation & control
(2) Protection
(3) Signaling
This portion can be seen as brain of the UPS. It provides the control pulses to the
switching elements which deliver power to the output. The sub-system also regulates the
output to ensure that the UPS is delivering constant AC voltage to the loads.
The inverter signal is sensed directly by resistor division. It is compared with a reference
signal from sine wave generator. The difference of these two signals (error signal) alter the
pulse widths of PWM signals which control the duty cycles of switching elements to
regulate the output voltage within specification.
In order to avoid un-wanted surge current at the transfer of bypass relay, the bypass
signal activates the tracking circuit. It matches the inverter voltage with the line voltage by
having the amplitude of the reference signal following the variation of line voltage.
When the mains in the acceptable range is applied and the switch is turned on, the UPS
operates at battery mode to charge the buses voltage and inverter on. As soon as the phase
lock and amplitude are completed. If the battery is weak, the UPS transfers to bypass mode
about 3 seconds when switch turns on, then transfer to inverter mode and as soon as the
phase lock and amplitude are completed.

700VA/1KVA/1.5KVA/2KVA/3KVA SERVICE MANUAL
When the AC line is unable to supply, the batteries release stored energy to supply the
inverter immediately. At the same time, the utility failure relay is activated and the buzzer
beeps every five seconds.
Upon the batteries are discharged to battery-low level, the battery-low relay is activated
and the buzzer two beeps every five seconds.
Remote shutdown signal is enabled only when the line fails. The signal is connected to
the battery detector. It generates battery-under signal to cut off the bias power supply of
the UPS system. The EPO signal is enabled at any mode, when the EPO is enable, the unit
shut off the output power.
