8.0 MAINTENANCE

The XG Series UPS requires very little maintenance. The batteries are sealed, valve-regulated, maintenance-free and enclosed in the fire retardant pack. The batteries should be kept charged to prevent their premature failure. The UPS will continuously charge the batteries when connected to the utility supply.

UPS AND BATTERY CARE

Keep the area around the UPS clean and dust free. If the area around the UPS becomes very dusty, clean the area and the UPS with a vacuum cleaner. For full battery life, keep the UPS at an ambient temperature of 25oC (77oF).

STORING THE UPS AND BATTERIES

When storing the UPS for any length of time, it is recommended to plug the UPS in for at least 24 hours every four to six months to ensure full recharge of the batteries.

WHEN TO REPLACE BATTERIES

We suggest that you replace the battery pack every three to five years. In order to assure the performance of the XG Series UPS, you should check the battery every two to three months by pressing “FUNCTION/TEST” button and conduct a battery test. If the UPS goes back to NORMAL On-line MODE in less than 10 seconds with a long beep, the batteries may need replacing. Contact Falcon Electric Service department to order replacement battery packs.

BATTERY PACK REPLACEMENT

With the hot-swappable battery pack feature, the XG Series UPS battery pack is easily replaced, without having to turning the UPS off or disconnecting the load.

NOTE!

DO NOT DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES WHILE THE UPS IS IN BATTERY MODE.
