SAFETY

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

36V and 72V Battery Packs and UPS systems use identical power cables and plugs; make certain that your Battery Packs and UPS use the same DC voltage before connecting them.

Suggested mounting procedures are for common rack types and may not be appropriate for all rack configurations. User must determine the fitness of rack- and wallmount hardware and procedures before mounting.

It is normal for sparks to occur inside external battery connectors during final battery connection.

Do not unplug external batteries from the UPS while the UPS is operating on battery power, due to the possibility of dangerous arcing.

There are no user-serviceable parts inside the Battery Packs. Do not open the Battery Packs for any reason.
