Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite UPS Systems. Failure to heed these warnings will void your warranty.

UPS Location Warnings

•Use caution when lifting UPS. Because of the considerable weight of all 3U Rackmount UPS systems, at least two people should assist in lifting and installing them.

•Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, conductive contaminants, dust or direct sunlight.

•For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between between 32º F and 104º F (0º C and 40º C).

•Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.

UPS Connection Warnings

•The UPS contains its own energy source (battery). The output terminals may be live even when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.

•Connect your UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS into itself; this will damage the UPS.

•Do not modify the UPS's plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the UPS’s ground connection.

•Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet.

•If the UPS receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must provide clean, filtered, computer-grade output.

Equipment Connection Warnings

•Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems for life support devices in which a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause failure or significantly alter the performance of that device.

•Do not connect extension cords or surge suppressors to the output of your UPS. This may damage your UPS and will void both the surge suppressor and UPS warranties.

Battery Warnings

•Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your UPS for any reason except battery replacement. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

•Battery replacement must be performed by qualified service personnel. Because the batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current, observe proper precautions. Unplug and turn off the UPS before performing battery replacement. Use tools with insulated handles, and take caution that the battery terminals do not contact the metal housing of the UPS. Replace the existing batteries with the same number and type of new batteries (Sealed Lead-Acid). Do not open the batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object.

•The UPS batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements, or in the USA only call 1-800-SAV-LEAD for recycling information. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire.

•Do not attempt to add external batteries to your UPS system.
