3.0 Precautions
Because of the external dimensions of the 4200FA UPS and the way the outer panels are to be
removed; only a minimum amount of space around the unit is required for ventilation and
maintenance access. Figure 3.1 shows the minimum clearances required for proper UPS
installation.
3.1 Installation Precautions
1) Install the UPS in a stable, level, and upright position that is free of vibration.
2) Install the UPS in a well ventilated location with the required allowances for ventilation
and servicing as shown in figure 3.1.
3) Install the UPS where the ambient
temperature is within the correct
operating range (see the UPS
Specifications in section 5). Verify that
the ventilation and air conditioning
system at the site is capable of
removing the heat generated by the
UPS unit (see Section, 5 Specifications,
"Environment"). Ambient temperature
range for operating the UPS is 32 –
104 °F (0 – 40 °C); 77 °F (25 °C) is the
recommended operating temperature
for maximum battery life.
4) Do not install the UPS in a location that
is subject to high humidity.
5) Do not allow the UPS to be exposed to
direct sunlight.
6) Do not install the UPS in areas that are
subject to contamination such as high
levels of airborne dust, metal particles,
or flammable gasses.
7) Avoid installation near sources of
electrical noise and always ensure that
the earth ground is intact to prevent
electrical shock and help prevent
electrical noise.
8) Do not install the UPS in an area that
may expose the UPS to water or that
may allow any foreign matter to get
inside.
9) This UPS generates and radiates radio-
frequency energy during operation.
There is no guarantee that the UPS will
not influence some sensitive devices
that are operating close by. If such
interference is experienced, the UPS
should be installed farther away from
the affected equipment and/or powered
from a different source than the affected
equipment.
10) The user should provide output over
current protection for hardwired UPS
versions. See Safety Instructions on
page 9 for the correct device rating. Figure 3.1
