9.1.1 Bypass Supplies
The Liebert
®
 NX
 contains an electronically controlled switching circuit that enables the critical load 
to be connected to either the inverter output or to a bypass power source via the static bypass line. 
During normal system operation the load is connected to the inverter and the inverter contactor is 
closed; but in the event of a UPS overload or an inverter failure, the load is automatically transferred 
to the static bypass line.
To provide a clean (no-break) load transfer between the inverter output and static bypass line, the 
bypass static switch activates, connecting the load to bypass. To achieve this, the inverter output and 
bypass supply must be fully synchronized during normal operating conditions. This is achieved 
through the inverter control electronics, which make the inverter frequency track that of the static 
bypass supply, provided that the bypass remains within an acceptable frequency window.
A manually controlled, maintenance bypass supply is incorporated into the UPS design. It enables the 
critical load to be powered from the utility (bypass) supply while the UPS is shut down for routine 
maintenance.
9.1.2 Operating Modes
The UPS is designed to operate as an on-line, double-conversion, reverse-transfer system in the 
following modes:
Normal Mode
Operating in normal mode, the Liebert NX’s rectifier derives power from a utility AC source and 
supplies regulated DC power to the inverter, which regenerates precise AC power to supply the 
connected equipment. The rectifier also uses the utility source power to charge the batteries.
Battery Mode
When utility AC power fails, the Liebert NX protects the critical load by instantaneously channeling 
battery power to the inverter, which continues supporting the critical load without interruption. 
When utility power returns and is within acceptable limits, the Liebert NX automatically shifts back 
to Normal mode, with the rectifier powering the critical load.
Bypass Mode
When the Liebert NX is in bypass mode, the load is directly supported by utility power and is without 
battery backup protection.
The Liebert NX’s inverter static switch and bypass static switch will shift the load from the inverter 
to bypass mode without an interruption in AC power if the inverter is synchronous with the bypass 
and any of the following occurs:
• inverter fails
• inverter overload capacity is exceeded
• inverter is manually turned off by the user 
NOTE
When the UPS is operating in bypass mode or on maintenance bypass, the connected 
equipment is not protected from power failures or surges and sags.
NOTE
If the inverter is asynchronous with the bypass, the static switch will transfer the load from the 
inverter to the bypass WITH interruption in AC power to the critical load. This interruption 
will be less than 10ms. This interruption time may be altered by modifying the Output transfer 
interrupt time setting.
