4.1PREPARATION
1.Visually inspect the UPS for freight damage. Report damage to the carrier and your local dealer or Liebert representative.
! CAUTION
The UPS is heavy (see 11.0 - Specifications). Take proper precautions when lifting or moving it.
2.Decide where to place the GXT 2U. Install the UPS indoors in a controlled environment, where it cannot be accidentally turned off. Place it in an area of unrestricted airflow around the unit, away from water, flammable liquids, gases, corrosives, and conductive contaminants. Maintain a minimum clearance of 4 in. (100mm) in the front and rear of the UPS. Maintain an ambient temperature range of 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C).
NOTE
UPS operation in temperatures above 77°F (25°C) reduces battery life.
3.The GXT 2U may be installed in either a tower configuration or in a rack, depending on available space and use considerations. Determine the type of installation and follow the appropriate instructions in either 4.2 - Tower UPS Installation or 4.3 -
