Publication number: 20160359362Abstract: An uninterruptible power supply system has a flywheel system/battery combination as a source of back-up DC power. When power is restored after a power outage, a controller of the uninterruptible power supply system controls the rectifier to keep its DC output voltage sufficiently low so that only the flywheel system of the flywheel system/battery combination is initially recharged. Once the flywheel system is recharged, the controller is configured to raise the voltage of the rectifier's DC output voltage to the nominal DC output voltage of the rectifier, both for recharging the battery pack of the flywheel system/battery combination and to provide DC power to an inverter of the uninterruptible power supply system.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 29, 2016Publication date: December 8, 2016Inventor: James K.

Patent number: 7511229Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and system for mounting a current transformer in proximity to a circuit breaker of an electrical system. Generally, a plurality of current transformers (CTs) are provided to measure a plurality of branches from a main power supply and are accumulated on a sensor module. In at least one embodiment, the sensor module includes a molded polymer mounting support that can support the CTs. The polymer molded mounting support departs from the standard circuit board and is substantially less fragile. A wiring channel is provided within the sensor module so that CT output wiring can be safely routed to the output connector using as few as two soldered connections, rather than the typical six soldered connections required in existing branch monitoring systems. Multiple sensor modules can be stacked to allow continued alignment with the CTs and software/firmware/hardware can allow for any current polarity changes.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2006Date of Patent: March 31, 2009Assignee: Liebert CorporationInventors: Gerald R.

Patent number: 7489051Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and system using a power protector, such as an uninterruptible power supply (power protector) or a power line conditioner. An input of the power protector can be coupled to an output of one or more of circuit breakers using electrical buss bars for unique modularity and easy installation and replacement. Further, an input of a second set of circuit breakers can be coupled to an output of the power protector to backfeed the power through the second set of circuit breakers and out through the buss bar to one or more electrical loads. Additional power protectors can be used for capacity and/or redundancy. A stacked buss bar system can be used that consolidates the system into a compact assembly heretofore unknown in the industry. In at least some embodiments, the system can be compatible with standard panelboards having circuit breakers disposed therein.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2007Date of Patent: February 10, 2009Assignee: Liebert CorporationInventors: John S.

Patent number: 7477501Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and system for mounting a current transformer in proximity to a circuit breaker of an electrical system. Generally, a sensor assembly contains a plurality of current transformers (CTs) for measuring power wires from a main power supply. To accommodate measuring a greater number of wires than one sensor assembly can service, a plurality of sensor assemblies can be mounted end-to-end. The sensor assemblies can have symmetrical recessed portions that laterally align when mounted end-to-end by inverting one of the sensor assemblies. The lateral alignment allows CTs mounted lateral to the recessed portions to be aligned with corresponding circuit breakers, so that wires passing from the circuit breakers are aligned with the CTs, reducing bending stresses on the CTs in contrast to prior efforts. Changes in polarity caused by the inversion can be adjusted by software, firmware, hardware or a combination thereof.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2006Date of Patent: January 13, 2009Assignee: Liebert CorporationInventors: Gregg J.

Publication number: 20080092577Abstract: A centralized cooling system can selectively deliver individualized cooling to individual electrical load units. The system can provide direct cooling from a manifold of cooling outlets in a controlled manner based on the sensed electrical loads of particular load units. A branch monitoring system monitors the load on electrical feeds that are coupled to electrical load units. A controller is coupled to the branch monitoring system and provides output to control a cooling unit. At least one control valve is further coupled to the controller downstream of the cooling unit generally at each cooling outlet to control an amount of cooling fluid, such as air or liquid, directed to one or more of the units. If a load changes for a given unit, the controller can actuate a cooling valve coupled to a corresponding cooling outlet and alter the amount of cooling fluid flowing into or around the unit(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2007Publication date: April 24, 2008Applicant: LIEBERT CORPORATIONInventor: James K.
