controls the outlet is ON.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Connected equipment loses power.

The Back-UPS is overloaded.

Ensure the equipment you want to stay powered during a power failure is plugged

 

 

 

 

 

into the Battery + Surge Protection” outlets, and NOT the Surge Protection Only

 

 

 

 

outlets.

 

 

 

 

Ensure the equipment plugged into the outlets of the unit are not overloading the

 

 

 

 

capacity of the unit. Try disconnecting some of the equipment one device at a time,

 

 

 

 

and see if the problem continues.

 

 

 

The Back-UPS has exhausted its available battery power.

The unit can only operate on battery power for a limited amount of time. The unit will

 

 

 

 

eventually turn off when the available battery power has been used. Allow the unit to

 

 

 

 

recharge for 24 hours before continuing to use the unit.

Inadequate runtime.

The battery is not fully charged.

Allow the unit to charge by leaving it plugged in, and switched on for 24 hours.

 

 

 

Battery is near the end of useful life.

As a battery ages, the amount of runtime available will decrease. Batteries also age

 

 

 

 

prematurely if the unit is placed near excessive heat. If the battery will not charge, the

 

 

 

 

Back-UPS is no longer operable, and the battery must be replaced.

Order Replacement Battery

Replace with an APC qualified battery. Replacement batteries can be ordered from www.apc.com (valid credit card required). For Back-UPS 650, order APCRBC106 as directed by APC Technical Support.

Safety

This section contains important instructions that should be followed during Back-UPS installation and maintenance. The instructions are intended for APC customers who setup, install, relocate, or maintain APC equipment.

This equipment is intended for installation in a temperature-controlled indoor area (see Specifications for exact temperature range), free of conductive contaminants.

!

Electrical Safety

To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided with 20-amp

maximum branch circuit overturned protection.

 

 

!

CAUTION! De-energizing Safety

The Back-UPS has an internal energy source (the battery); the output may be

energized when the unit is not connected to an AC power outlet.

 

To de-energize pluggable equipment: switch the unit off. Disconnect the unit

 

from utility power. Next, disconnect the equipment from the unit.

 

The unit includes a protective earth conductor that carries the leakage current

 

from the connected devices. Total leakage current must not exceed 3.5 mA.

 

Use of the unit in life support applications where failure of the unit can

 

reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to

 

significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended.

 

 

 

 

!

WARNING! Battery Safety

• This unit contains no user-serviceable parts. This equipment contains

 

potentially hazardous voltages. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit.

 

Repairs are only performed by factory trained service personnel.

 

Batteries must be recycled. Deliver the entire Back-

 

UPS to an appropriate recycling facility, or ship it to APC

 

in the original packaging.

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.

Do not open or mutilate batteries. They contain an electrolyte which is toxic and harmful to the skin and eyes.

Warranty

The standard warranty is 2 years from the date of purchase. APC’s standard procedure is to replace the original unit with a factory reconditioned unit. Customers who must have the original unit back due to assigned asset tags and set depreciation schedules must declare such a need at first contact with APC Technical Support. APC will ship the replacement unit once the defective unit is received by the repair department or cross-ship upon the provision of a valid credit card number. The customer pays for shipping to APC, and APC pays ground freight transportation costs back to the customer.
