4.3 Moving the UPS

The UPS is heavy and should be moved to the operating site by hand truck. Two people are necessary to load the UPS into position on the truck noseplate. Load the UPS onto the hand truck as shown below. Use hand truck straps to stabilize the load while moving.

νCaution: Never attempt to lift the UPS by the Electronics Unit or by the EU separating screw!.

4.4 Placement

The UPS may be installed in any protected environment. The location should provide adequate air flow around the unit, in an atmosphere free from excessive dust. Do not operate the UPS in an environment where the ambient temperature or humidity is outside the limits given in the Specifications section of this manual.

νWarning: Risk of electric shock exists inside the UPS. Input voltage tap selection and power distribution panel replacement should be performed only by qualified service personnel.

4.5 Input Voltage Selection

As furnished, the UPS is configured to operate from a single phase 208 Vac source. In applications where it is desired to operate from a 240 Vac source, the UPS must be reconfigured. To reconfigure the UPS, follow the steps listed below.

4.5.1.Turn off (0) the UPS’s input circuit breaker and unplug the input cord.
