Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important instructions that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite UPS Systems.

UPS Location Warnings

Use caution when lifting UPS. Because of the considerable weight of all Rackmount UPS systems, at least two people should assist in lifting and installing them.

Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.

For best performance, the ambient temperature near your UPS should be between 32° F and 104° F (between 0° C and 40° C).

Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation. Do not obstruct its vents or fan openings.

UPS Connection Warnings

Connect your UPS to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not modify the UPS’s plug in a way that would eliminate the UPS’s connection to ground. Do not use adapters that eliminate the UPS’s connection to ground.

Do not plug your UPS into itself; this will damage the UPS and void your warranty.

If you are connecting your UPS to a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must provide filtered, frequency-regulated computer-grade output. Connecting your UPS to a generator will void its Ultimate Lifetime Insurance (not available outside the US/Canada).

Equipment Connection Warnings

Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems for life support applications in which a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause failure or significantly alter the performance of a life-support device.

Battery Warnings

Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your UPS for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

Do not operate UPS without connecting it to one or more external battery packs unless you are performing hot-swap external battery replacement.

When adding external battery packs, connect only Tripp Lite-recommended battery packs of the correct voltage and type. Do not connect or disconnect battery packs when the UPS is operating on battery power.

During hot-swap external battery pack replacement, your UPS will not provide backup power in the event of a blackout or other power interruptions.
