|
| Minimum operating temperature: 32 °F (0 °C). | |
| Maximum operating temperature: 86 °F (30 °C) at 1.0 PF (UPS with/without | |
| battery system). |
|
Ambient | Maximum operating temperature: 90 °F (32 °C) at 0.8 PF (UPS with battery | |
Temperature | system). |
|
| Maximum operating temperature: 104 °F (40 °C) at 0.8 PF (UPS only). | |
| Average | |
| (5 – 35 °C) at 0.8 PF. |
|
Relative Humidity | The relative humidity must be between 30 and 90% noncondensing due to | |
temperature changes. |
| |
|
| |
| These specifications are for altitudes up to 3240 ft. (1000 m) above sea level. | |
Altitude | Consult with the factory to determine the derating factor for installations above | |
| 3240 ft. (1000 m). |
|
| Installation environment must not have vibration frequencies 10 Hz – 20 Hz. | |
Vibration and | The acceleration due to vibrations less than 10 Hz must not exceed 0.5 G. | |
Mechanical Shock | The acceleration due to vibrations 20 Hz – 50 Hz must not exceed 0.5 G. | |
| The total amplitude due to vibrations 50 Hz – 100 Hz must not exceed 0.1 mm. | |
Dust | Dust must not exceed normal atmospheric levels and must not include conductive | |
particles, silicone or oils. |
| |
|
| |
| No flammable and/or explosive gas. |
|
| Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) | Less than or equal to 0.0001 PPM |
| Sulfurous acid gas (SO2) | Less than or equal to 0.05 PPM |
|
|
|
| Chlorine gas (Cl2) | Less than or equal to 0.002 PPM |
Flammable Gas | Ammonia gas (NH3) | Less than or equal to 0.1 PPM |
| Nitrous acid gas (NO2) | Less than or equal to 0.02 PPM |
| Nitrous oxides (NOx) | Less than or equal to 0.02 PPM |
| Ozone (O3) | Less than or equal to 0.002 PPM |
| Hydrochloric acid mist (HCl) | Less than or equal to 0.1 mg/m3 |
Installation Precautions
1)Install the unit in a stable, level and upright position that is free of excessive vibration.
2)Install the unit where the ambient temperature is within the specified range.
3)DO NOT install the UPS in areas that are subject to high humidity.
4)DO NOT install the UPS in areas that allow exposure to direct sunlight.
5)DO NOT install the UPS in areas that allow exposure to high levels of airborne dust, metal particles, or flammable gases.
6)DO NOT install the UPS in areas near sources of electrical noise. Ensuring a proper earth ground will reduce the effects of electrical noise and will reduce the potential for electrical shock.
