Important Safety Instructions

This manual contains important instructions that should be followed during the installation and the maintenance of the UPS.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

An Important Notice

•To ensure safety in all applications where a UPS is hardwired to the Electrical Supply, ensure that a Qualified Service Personnel installs the system.

•Those UPS systems supplied with a power cord can be safely connected to the wall outlet by the user.

•The UPS has its own internal energy source (battery). Should the battery be switched on when no AC power is available, there could be voltage at the output terminals.

•Make sure that the AC Utility outlet is properly grounded.

•Do not open the unit there are no serviceable parts inside. This will void the warranty.

•Do not try to repair the unit yourself, see Obtaining Service.

•Please make sure that the input voltage of the UPS matches the supply voltage.

•Use a certified input power cord with the correct plugs and sockets for the appropriate voltage system.

•To eliminate any overheating of the UPS, keep all ventilation openings free from obstruction, and do not store anything on top of the UPS. Keep the UPS 8-inches away from the wall.

•Make sure the UPS is installed in the proper environment as specified. (0-40°C and 30-90% non-condensing humidity)

•Do not install the UPS in direct sunlight.

•Install the UPS indoors as it is not designed for outdoor use.

•Dusty, corrosive and salty environments will damage the UPS.

•Install the UPS away from; objects which give off excessive heat and areas, which are excessively wet.

•The battery will discharge naturally if the system is unused for prolonged periods of time.

•It is recommended that the batteries be recharged every 2-3 months while the UPS is not in service.

•This UPS supports electronic equipment in offices, telecommunications, process control, medical and security applications.

•This UPS has been designed and constructed to protect your equipment from the wide range of power anomalies experienced on Utility power lines today.

•This UPS is intended for use in a Controlled Environment.

•Servicing of Batteries should be performed by Qualified Service Personnel Only.

•When Replacing Batteries, Replace With the Same Number and Type.

•CAUTION – Do Not dispose of the battery in a fire. The battery may explode.

•CAUTION – Do not open or mutilate the battery. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic.

•CAUTION – Risk of Electric Shock – The battery circuit is not isolated from AC, hazardous Voltage may exist between battery terminals and ground. Test before touching.

•CAUTION – A Battery can present a Risk of Electrical Shock and High Short-Circuit Current. The following precaution should be observed when working with the batteries:

A.Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.

B.Use tools with insulated handles.

C.Wear rubber gloves and boots.

D.Wear protective eye gear (goggles).

E.Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.

F.Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.

•CAUTION – To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a branch circuit with over current protection in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (3KVA)

•CAUTION - Connect the UPS to a two pole, three wire grounding AC wall outlet. The receptacle must be connected to the appropriate branch protection (circuit breaker or fuse). Connection to any other type of receptacle may result in a shock hazard and violate local electrical codes. Do not use extension cords, adapter plugs, or surge strips.

•CAUTION - To reduce the risk of electrical shock with the installation of this UPS equipment and the connected equipment, the user must ensure that the combined sum of the AC leakage current does not exceed 3.5mA.

•CAUTION - To reduce the risk of electrical shock in conditions where the load equipment grounding cannot be verified, disconnect the UPS from the AC wall outlet before installing a computer interface cable. Reconnect the power cord only after all signaling connections are made.

•WARNING - Risk of Electrical Shock. Hazardous live parts inside these power supplies are energized from the battery even when the AC input is disconnected.

•CAUTION - To de-energize the outputs of the UPS:

A.If the UPS is on press and release the On/Off Switch.

B.Disconnect the UPS from the AC wall outlet.

C.To de-energize the UPS completely, disconnect the battery.
