Maintenance

NOTICE

Risk of improper cleaning. Can cause equipment damage.

Batteries should be cleaned with a dry cloth or a cloth lightly moistened with water. Do not use cleaners on the batteries. Solvents can make the battery cases brittle.

Because individual battery characteristics are not identical and may change over time, the UPS module is equipped with circuitry to equalize battery cell voltages. This circuit increases charging voltage to maintain flooded type battery cells at full capacity.

! WARNING

Risk of electric shock, explosive reaction, hazardous chemicals and fire. Can cause equipment damage, personal injury and death.

Do not use equalize charging with valve-regulated, lead-acid batteries. Refer to the battery manufacturer’s manual, available on the manufacturer’s Web site, for specific information about equalize charging.

Matching Battery Cabinets—Optional

Although the individual battery cells are sealed (valve-regulated) and require only minimal maintenance, the Battery Cabinets should be given a periodic inspection and electrical check. Checks should be performed at least annually to ensure years of trouble-free service.

Voltage Records: With the Battery Cabinet DC circuit breaker closed and the connected UPS operating, measure and record battery float voltage. With the DC circuit breaker open, measure and record the nominal (open circuit) voltage. Both these measurements should be made across the final positive and negative terminal lugs. Compare these values with those shown below. The recorded nominal voltage should be no less than the value shown; while the recorded float voltage should be within the range shown. If a discrepancy is found, contact Liebert Services.
