Safety

This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite PowerVerter Systems.

PowerVerter Location Warnings

Install your PowerVerter indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.

Do not attempt to mount your PowerVerter on a vertical surface.

Leave adequate space around all sides of the PowerVerter for proper ventilation. The more power connected equipment draws, the more heat will be generated by the PowerVerter.

Do not install the PowerVerter near magnetic data storage media, as this may result in data corruption.

Battery Connection Warnings

Your PowerVerter will not operate until batteries are connected.

Multiple battery systems must be made up of batteries of the same voltage, age, amp hour capacity and type.

Keep battery location well ventilated. Explosive hydrogen gas can accumulate near batteries if they are not kept well ventilated.

Sparks may result during final battery connection. Always observe proper polarity as batteries are connected.

Tighten your battery terminals to create an efficient battery connection and prevent excessive heating.

Do not allow objects to contact the two DC input terminals. Do not short or bridge these terminals together. Serious injury to property or person could result.

Equipment Connection Warnings

Do not use Tripp Lite PowerVerter Systems in life support applications where a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite PowerVerter System could cause failure or significantly alter the performance of a life support device.

Do not connect a surge suppressor, line conditioner or UPS to the output of the PowerVerter.

Operation Warnings

Your PowerVerter does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your PowerVerter for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

Potentially lethal voltages exist within this unit as long as the batteries are connected. During any service work, the batteries should therefore be disconnected.

Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the PowerVerter is operating. Dangerous arcing may result.
