Uninterruptible power systems (UPS) - Part 3: Method of specifying the performance and test requirements
This part of IEC 62040 establishes the performance and test requirements applied to movable, stationary and fixed electronic uninterruptible power systems (UPS) that - are supplied from AC voltage not exceeding 1 000 V, - deliver AC output voltage not exceeding 1 000 V, - incorporate an energy storage device not exceeding 1 500 V DC, and - have a primary function to ensure continuity of load power. This document specifies performance and test requirements of a complete UPS and, where applicable, of individual UPS functional units. Requirements for the individual UPS functional units found in IEC publications listed in the Bibliography apply so far that they are not in contradiction with this document. UPS are developed for a wide range of power, from less than hundred watts to several megawatts, to meet requirements for availability and quality of power to a variety of loads. Refer to Annex A and Annex B for information on typical UPS configurations and topologies. This document also includes UPS performance and test requirements related to UPS switches that interact with UPS functional units to maintain continuity of load power. This document does not cover - conventional AC and DC distribution boards and their associated switches, - stand-alone static transfer systems covered by IEC 62310-3, - rotary UPS covered by IEC 88528-11, and - DC UPS covered by IEC 62040-5-3. NOTE 1 This document recognises that continuity of load power to information technology (IT) equipment represents a major UPS application. The UPS output characteristics specified in this document are therefore also aimed at ensuring compatibility with the requirements of IT equipment. This, subject any limitation stated in the manufacturer’s declaration, includes requirements for steady state and transient voltage variation as well as for the supply of both linear and non-linear load characteristics of IT equipment. NOTE 2 Test loads specified in this document simulate both linear and non-linear load characteristics. Their use permits verification of the performance declared by the manufacturer while minimising complexity and energy consumption during the tests. NOTE 3 This document is aimed at 50 Hz and 60 Hz applications but does not exclude other frequency applications within the domain of IEC 60196. This is subject to an agreement between manufacturer and purchaser with respect to any particular requirements arising.
Unterbrechungsfreie Stromversorgungssysteme (USV) - Teil 3: Methoden zum Festlegen der Leistungs- und Prüfungsanforderungen
Alimentations sans interruption (ASI) - Partie 3: Méthode de spécification des performances et exigences d'essai
La CEI 62040-3:2011 s'applique aux systèmes d'alimentation sans interruption (ASI) électroniques mobiles, immobiles et fixes, qui délivrent une tension de sortie alternative à fréquence fixe mono- ou triphasée ne dépassant pas 1 000 V en courant alternatif et qui possèdent un moyen d'accumulation d'énergie généralement connecté via une liaison à courant continu. La présente norme vise à spécifier les performances et les exigences d'essai d'une ASI complète et non des unités fonctionnelles d'ASI individuelles. Les unités fonctionnelles d'ASI individuelles sont traitées dans des publications CEI auxquelles il est fait référence dans la bibliographie, lesquelles s'appliquent dans la mesure où elles ne sont pas en contradiction avec la présente norme. La fonction essentielle de l'alimentation sans interruption (ASI) couverte par la présente norme est d'assurer la permanence d'une source d'alimentation alternative. L'alimentation sans interruption peut aussi servir à améliorer la qualité de la source d'alimentation en la maintenant dans les limites des caractéristiques spécifiées. Toutes sortes d'alimentations sans interruption ont été développées pour satisfaire aux exigences par rapport à la permanence et à la qualité de l'alimentation de différents types de charges dans une large gamme de puissance de moins de cent watts à plusieurs mégawatts. Se reporter aux Annexes A et B pour avoir des informations sur les configurations et topologies types des ASI. Cette norme concerne également les essais et performances d'ASI quand des interrupteurs de puissance font partie intégrante d'une ASI et sont associés à sa sortie. Elle inclut les interrupteurs, les interrupteurs de bypass, les interrupteurs d'isolement et les interrupteurs de liaison. Ces interrupteurs réagissent avec d'autres unités fonctionnelles de l'ASI pour maintenir la continuité de l'alimentation de la charge. La présente norme ne couvre pas: - les tableaux de distribution conventionnels à entrée et sortie alternatives ou les tableaux en continu et leurs interrupteurs associés (par exemple les interrupteurs pour batteries, pour la sortie du redresseur ou pour l'entrée de l'onduleur); - les systèmes de transfert statique autonomes couverts par la CEI 62310-3; - les systèmes dont la tension de sortie est dérivée d'une machine tournante. NOTE 1 Cette norme reconnaît que la disponibilité de l'alimentation pour les matériels de traitement de l'information (IT) représente une application majeure des ASI. Les caractéristiques de sortie de l'ASI spécifiées dans la présente norme ont donc également pour but de garantir la compatibilité avec les exigences des matériels d'IT. Celle-ci, soumise à toute limitation indiquée dans la déclaration du fabricant, comporte des exigences relatives aux variations de tension en régime établi et transitoire ainsi qu'à l'alimentation des caractéristiques de charge à la fois linéaires et non linéaires des matériels d'IT. NOTE 2 Les charges d'essai spécifiées dans la présente norme simulent les caractéristiques de charge à la fois linéaires et non linéaires. Leur usage est prescrit avec pour objectif de vérifier la conception et la performance déclarées par le fabricant, ainsi que de limiter toute complexité et consommation d'énergie pendant les essais. NOTE 3 La présente norme vise les applications à 50 Hz et à 60 Hz mais n'exclut pas les applications à d'autres fréquences dans le domaine de la CEI 60196. Cela est soumis à un accord entre le fabricant et l'achete
