3.4.2Torque Requirements
All electrical connections must be tight. Table 4 provides the torque values for the connections in the UPS. Use these values unless the equipment is labeled otherwise.
NOTE
Refer to the battery manufacturer’s manual, available on the manufacturer’s Web site, for the proper torque values required for the battery.

3.5Detecting Trouble
It is important that the operator check the instrument readings if abnormal equipment performance is suspected. Any metered value that differs appreciably from normal could mean an impending mal- function and should be investigated.
Items to check include:
•If the UPS has not operated on battery power during the last 10 hours, the batteries should require little charging current. Battery mimic should indicate normal DC voltage with the battery charge current no more than 1% of maximum discharge current.
•Input current on each phase should be within 10% of the average input current.
•Alarm messages indicate malfunction or impending malfunction. A daily check of the Display Screen will help to provide an early detection of problems. Refer to Table 7 for information about interpreting alarm messages.
•Tracing a problem to a particular section is facilitated by alarm messages and the metered parameter indications.
NOTICE
If the UPS system has an open fuse, the cause should be determined before replacing the fuse. Contact Liebert Services for assistance.
