MGE UPS Systems 3, 4 3. Installation

Always store the equipment in its original packaging.

The battery is of the sealed lead-acid type. Battery recharge requires that the battery module be

plugged into an energized NEMA 5-15 receptacle for 6-8 hours. The battery may be charged in the

box by pulling the AC cord out through the bottom.

Battery storage or prolonged shutdown should never exceed 6 months or 68°F (20°C), for a

battery initially at 100% charge. The battery warranty is void if the 6 month recharge interval

is not adhered to.

It is recommended that the equipment be unpacked in an area close to its installation location.

Caution:

The UPS and extended batteries weigh up to 75 pounds each.

Two people are required to lift the unit.

Remove the Solution-Pac CD, RS232 cable, and USB cable from the box and set aside for later use .

Fold the box flaps outward. Gently rotate the box on its side and slide the unit out of the box. Gently

rotate the unit upright and then remove the packing material. Save packaging for future shipment

of UPS to MGE for recycling.

Choose a location out of direct sunlight with adequate ventilation. The operating ambient temperature

range is 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C). Temperatures above 77°F (25°C) should be avoided as battery

life is reduced.

Ensure that there is clearance around the intake vents in the front of the UPS and that the rear is unob-

structed. Six inches of clearance at the rear of the unit is required. Units may be placed vertically or hor-

izontally with zero clearance. Use the supplied stabilizing feet when vertically mounting the UPS and/or

extended battery.

Optional rack mounting hardware is available for rack mounting. Instructions for their use are included

in the rack kit. See Figure 2a.
