Replacing the Battery

This UPS has an easy to replace hot-swappable battery. Battery replacement is a safe procedure, isolated from electrical hazards. You may leave the UPS and loads on for the following procedure. See your dealer or call the number in this manual for information on replacement battery kits.

Note: Please read the cautions in the APC Safety Guide.

Once the battery is disconnected, the loads are not protected from power outages.

Battery Replacement Procedure - 2200 - 3000 VA Models

Battery Replacement Procedure - 450 - 1400 VA Models

1.Grasp the top edge of the bottom front cover and tilt it out.

2.Unhook the bottom section of the front cover from the chassis and set it aside.

3.Use a flat-blade screwdriver or a coin to remove the two battery door screws and open the door.

4.Grip the wires for the front set of batteries and pull firmly to disconnect the connector from the battery compartment.

5.Pull the white cord on the front battery connector to remove the batteries.

6.Set aside the foam spacer located between the batteries.

7.Reach into the battery compartment and grasp the white cord on the other battery connector. Pull firmly to disconnect the connector and remove the second set of batteries.

Note: Be careful removing the batteries - they are heavy.

8.Slide the first set of new batteries into the unit. Hold the connector down below the top of the batteries and toward the door, otherwise the assembly will not fit. Guide the connector over the top of the batteries and press firmly to connect it to the rear connector of the battery compartment.

Note: Small sparks at the battery connectors are normal during connection.

9.Set the foam spacer against the rear batteries to prevent the wires from being pinched.

10.Slide the second set of batteries in, then guide the connector over the batteries and press firmly to connect it to the front connector of the battery compartment.

11.Close the battery door, replace the screws, and replace the lower front cover. 12.Dispose of the old battery properly at an appropriate recycling facility or return

it to the supplier in the packing material for the new battery. See the new battery instructions for more information.

1400 VA

450 - 1000 VA

1.Grasp the top of the front cover and tilt it out and down.

2.Unhook the bottom of the cover from the chassis and lift it upward to expose the battery door. Be careful not to strain the ribbon cable. Do not touch the exposed printed circuit board.

3.Fold the front cover on top of the UPS as shown.

4.Use a flat-blade screwdriver or a coin to remove the two battery door screws and open the door.

Grasp the tab and gently pull the battery out of the UPS.

5.Disconnect the battery leads.

For the 450 through 1000 VA models, loosen the connectors by gently

￿wiggling them while pulling straight back from the battery connector.

For the 1400 VA model, pull the two gray couplers apart to disconnect the battery.

6.Connect the battery leads to the new battery.

Note: Small sparks at the battery connectors are normal during connection.

For the 450 through 1000 VA models, connect the red wire to the positive (+)

￿terminal and the black wire to the negative (–) terminal.

For the 1400 VA model, connect the gray battery coupler to the UPS’s coupler.

7.Slide the battery into the UPS.

8.Close the battery door, replace the battery compartment screws, and replace the front cover.

9.Dispose of the old battery properly at an appropriate recycling facility or return it to the supplier in the packing material for the new battery. See the new battery instructions for more information.

Service

If the UPS requires service do not return it to the dealer!

Follow these steps:

1.Use the Troubleshooting section of the Quick Reference Guide to eliminate common problems.

2.Verify that no circuit breakers are tripped. A tripped circuit breaker is the most common UPS problem!

3.If the problem persists, call customer service or visit the APC Internet Website (www.apcc.com).

Note the model number of the UPS, the serial number, and the date purchased. A technician will ask you to describe the problem and try to solve it over the phone, if possible. If this is not possible the

￿technician will issue a Return Merchandise Authorization Number (RMA#).

If the UPS is under warranty, repairs are free. If not, there is a repair charge.

4.Pack the UPS in its original packaging. If the original packing is not available, ask customer service about obtaining a new set.

Pack the UPS properly to avoid damage in transit. Never use Styrofoam beads for packaging. Damage ￿sustained in transit is not covered under warranty.

Include a letter with your name, RMA#, address, copy of the sales receipt, description of the trouble, your daytime phone number, and a check (if necessary).

5.Mark the RMA# on the outside of the package.

6.Return the UPS by insured, prepaid carrier to the address given to you by Customer Service.
