WARNING
The UPS, Transformer and Battery Modules are very heavy. Use the proper lifting equipment and take the
proper precautions when lifting or moving them.
1. Always install the FN system indoors in a controlled environment.
2. Install the FN modules in a location with unrestricted airflow around the front and rear sides of the modules,
away from water, flammable liquids, gases, corrosive, and conductive contaminants.
3. Maintain a minimum clearance of 4 inches in the front and rear of the UPS.
4. Maintain an ambient temperature range of 32ºF to 104ºF (0ºC to 40ºC). To assure the maximum life of the
batteries, operation in an ambient temperature of 68ºF to 77ºF (20ºC to 25ºC) is recommended.
OPERATION IN TEMPERATURES ABOVE 77ºF (25ºC) WILL REDUCE BATTERY LIFE.
5. The FN Series Rackmount system modules must be installed in a standard 19” equipment rack having hard
mounted shelves under the modules to properly support their weight.
6. When selecting a suitable rack location for the UPS, Transformer and battery bank(s) always verify the
floor loading capabilities:
