Inspection
Upon receipt of the UPS, an inspection for shipping damage should be performed. Use caution when
removing the unit from the pallet. Refer to labels or documentation attached to packing material.
Unpacking
Check the unit for loose, broken, bent or otherwise damaged parts. If damage has occurred during shipping,
keep all original crating and packing materials for return to the shipping agent.
NOTE: The factory warranty does not apply to damage incurred during shipping!
Ensure that the rated capacity and the model number specied on the nameplate conform to the order
specications.
Storage
During periods of non-use, the following guidelines are recommended for storage.
Storage Preparation
1) Power up the UPS and allow it to operate with no load for 24 hours to fully charge
the batteries.
2) Stop the unit.
3) Place the Main Circuit Breaker switch in the “OFF” position.
Storage Conditions
• For best results, store the UPS in the original shipping container and place on a wood
or metal pallet
• Storage temperature range: -4 to 104 °F (-20 to 40 °C)
• The optimum storage temperature is 70 °F (21 °C). A higher ambient temperature will
require recharging more frequently during storage
Avoid the following storage locations:
• Locations that are subject to extreme temperature changes or high humidity
• Locations that are subject to high levels of dust or metal particles
• Locations that are subject to excessive vibration
• Inclined oor surfaces
