Safety Considerations
The UPS enclosures are designed for industrial or computer room applications, and contain safety shields behind the doors. However, the UPS is a sophisticated power system and should be handled with appropriate care, following these guidelines:
•Keep surroundings clean and free from excess moisture.
•Do not operate the UPS close to gas or electric heat sources.
•The system is not intended for outdoor use.
•The UPS operating environment should be maintained within the parameters stated in this manual.
•Keep the UPS doors closed to ensure proper cooling airflow and to protect personnel from dangerous voltages inside the unit.
•The UPS contains its own power source. Lethal voltages are present even when the UPS is disconnected from utility power.
WARNING:
Only AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL should perform service or maintenance on the UPS or battery.
If service or routine UPS maintenance is required:
•Ensure all power is disconnected before performing installation or service.
•Ensure the area around the UPS system is clean and uncluttered.
•Battery cabinet maintenance or battery replacement should be performed only by authorized service personnel.
•Observe all DANGER, CAUTION, and WARNING notices affixed to the inside and outside of the equipment.
•Always conform to the more detailed safety precautions described in “Important Safety Instructions” section of Chapter 15.
