Emerson 540VDC manual System Location, Environmental Considerations

Site Preparation

2.0SITE PREPARATION

Site preparation for the Liebert FS is minimal. If a UPS system is already installed, the only require- ments are to properly:

• Place the unit in relation to walls, ceiling and other equipment and

• Fasten the unit to the floor.

! CAUTION

The following sections should be read thoroughly before proceeding with site preparation for installing the Liebert FS.

NOTE

All drawings referred to in this section are in Appendix D.0 - Installation Drawings.

2.1System Location

Choose a location for the Liebert FS that offers:

•Easy connection to inputs, outputs and auxiliary equipment

•Enough space to service the Liebert FS

•Air circulation sufficient to expel heat produced by Liebert FS

•Protection against moisture and excessive humidity (not to exceed 95% non-condensing)

•Protection against excessive dust and other particulate matter

•Compliance with fire prevention regulations and practices

•Operating environment temperature of -4°F to 122°F (-20°C to 50°C)

2.2Environmental Considerations

Place the system in a clean, dust-free environment. Air must be free to circulate around the cabi- net(s). The system pulls air through the front of the Liebert FS and exhausts it out the top for cooling. If the unit must be located in a dusty environment, Liebert recommends installing an optional air fil- ter, which mounts on the lower inside of the Liebert FS door.

Adequate ventilation, including air conditioning if necessary, must be provided to limit heat accumu- lation. The ambient temperature for the unit must be from -4°F to 122°F (-20°C to 50°C). Avoid plac- ing the unit in direct sunlight or near other heat sources.

There is a 32°F (0°C) minimum ambient temperature requirement for starting up the unit. Once the unit has been running for some time, it will keep itself warm enough in ambient temperatures as low as -4°F (-20°C).

Humidity is not to exceed 95% (non-condensing).
