Safety

This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite APS Systems.

APS Location Warnings

•Install your APS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.

•Your APS is NOT waterproof. Contact with water can cause the unit to short circuit and could cause personal injury due to electric shock. Never immerse your APS. Mount it in the driest location available.

•Leave adequate space around all sides of the APS for proper ventilation. The heavier the load of connected equipment, the more heat will be generated by the APS.

•Do not install the APS near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.

Battery Connection Warnings

•Your APS will not operate with or without utility power until batteries are connected.

•Multiple battery systems must be made up of batteries of the same voltage, age, amp hour capacity and type.

•Keep battery location well ventilated. Explosive hydrogen gas can accumulate near batteries if they are not kept well ventilated.

•Sparks may result during final battery connection. Always observe proper polarity as bat- teries are connected.

•Do not allow objects to contact the two DC input terminals. Do not short or bridge these terminals together. Serious injury to property or person could result.

Equipment Connection Warnings

•Do not use Tripp Lite APS Systems in life support applications where a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite APS System could cause failure or significantly alter the performance of a life support device.

•Do not connect a surge suppressor, line conditioner or UPS to the output of the APS.

•Corded models: Do not modify the APS's plug in a way that eliminates its ground connection. Do not use power adapters that will eliminate the plug's ground connection. Connect your APS only to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug your APS into itself; this will damage the APS and void your warranty.

Operation Warnings

•Your APS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your APS for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

•Potentially lethal voltages exist within this unit as long as the battery supply and/or AC input are connected. During any service work, the battery supply and AC input connection (if any) should therefore be disconnected.

•Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the APS is operating from the battery supply. Dangerous arcing may result.
