4 UPS Maintenance

UPS and Battery Care

For the best preventive maintenance, keep the area around the UPS clean and dust–free. If the atmosphere is very dusty, clean the outside of the system with a vacuum cleaner.

For full battery life, keep the UPS at an ambient temperature of 25°C .

Storing the UPS and Batteries

If you store the UPS for a long period, recharge the battery every 6 months by plugging the UPS into a power outlet. The batteries charge to 90% capacity in approximately

3 hours. However, it is recommended that the batteries charge for 24 hours after long- term storage.

Check the battery recharge date on the shipping carton label. If the date has expired and the batteries were never recharged, do not use the UPS. Contact your service representative.

When to Replace Batteries

When the indicator flashes and there is a continuous audible alarm, the batteries may need replacing. Conduct a self–test by pressing and holding the button for three seconds. If the indicator stays on, contact your service representative to order new batteries.

Replacing Batteries

NOTE DO NOT DISCONNECT the batteries while the UPS is in Battery mode.

With the hot–swappable battery feature, UPS batteries can be replaced easily without turning the UPS off or disconnecting the load.

If you prefer to remove input power to change the battery: 1) Press and hold the Off button until the long beep ceases (approximately five seconds), then unplug the UPS;

2)Wait 60 seconds while the internal processor shuts down before you disconnect the battery.

Consider all warnings, cautions, and notes before replacing batteries.

WARNING

Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock or burn from high short-circuit current. The following precautions should be observed: 1) Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects; 2) Use tools with insulated handles; 3) Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.

ELECTRIC ENERGY HAZARD. Do not attempt to alter any battery wiring or connectors. Attempting to alter wiring can cause injury.
