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 (77°F).

NOTE If the UPS requires any type of transportation, verify that the UPS is unplugged and turned off and then disconnect the UPS internal battery connector using the steps in “Connecting the UPS Internal Battery” on page 16 in reverse order.

NOTE The batteries in the UPS are rated for a 3–5 year service life. The length of service life varies, depending on the frequency of usage and ambient temperature. Batteries used beyond expected service life will often have severely reduced runtimes. Replace batteries at least every 5 years to keep units running at peak efficiency.

Storing the UPS and Batteries

If you store the UPS for a long period, recharge the batteries every 12 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.
