SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

All sections of this manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation and operation of the UPS systems described in this manual. Read all instructions thoroughly before attempting to move, install or operate the UPS systems described in this manual. Failure to comply may invalidate the warranty and cause property damage and/or personal injury.

Location Warnings

Install the UPS system in a controlled indoor environment, away from moisture, temperature extremes, flammable liquids and gasses, conductive contaminants, dust and direct sunlight.

Install the UPS system in a level, structurally sound location.

The UPS system is extremely heavy; be extremely careful when moving or lifting the unit.

Operate the UPS system at indoor temperatures between 32° F and 104° F (0° C and 40° C) only. For best results, maintain indoor temperatures between 62° F and 84° F (17° C and 29° C).

5

• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS system for proper ventilation. Do not block, cover or insert objects into the external ventilation

openings of the cabinet.

8

Do not place any object on the unit, especially containers of liquid.

Do not mount the unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle). Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit’s internal cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered under warranty.

Do not install the UPS system near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption. Keep all recorded magnetic media a minimum of 60 cm (24 inches) away from the UPS system.

Do not attempt to stack the UPS system. Attempting to stack the UPS system may cause permanent damage and create a potential for serious personal injury.

The casters are designed for minor position adjustments within the final installation area only. The casters are not designed for moving the UPS system over longer distances.

The casters are not designed to provide long-term support for the UPS system after final installation. Use the levelers to provide long-term support.

When moving the UPS system, push from the front or rear, not from the sides.

Do not attempt to unpack or move the UPS system without assistance.

Connection Warnings

9 • The power supply for this unit must be three-phase rated in accordance with the equipment nameplate. It also must be suitably grounded according to all applicable local electrical wiring regulations.

The UPS system contains hazardous high voltages that have the potential to cause personal injury or death from electric shock.

The UPS system has its own energy source (battery – internal and/or external). The output terminals may be live even when the UPS system is

10 not connected to an AC supply.

If the UPS system receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must provide clean, filtered, computer-grade output.

Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the presence of a

11

flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.

The UPS system is designed to power modern computer loads and associated peripheral devices. Do not use the UPS system to power pure inductive or capacitive loads.

12

13

Input and output wiring should be performed by trained, qualified electricians only.

Due to high leakage current, a proper earth ground connection is essential before connecting the AC supply.

Isolate the UPS system before working on the circuit. An easily accessible disconnect device should be incorporated in the fixed wiring. The disconnect device must be a 4-pole device and must disconnect all line conductors and the neutral conductor.

SU80K specifications

The Tripp Lite SU80K is a robust and reliable uninterruptible power supply (UPS) solution, designed to provide essential backup power to critical equipment in various environments such as data centers, telecommunications, and industrial settings. This high-capacity UPS offers 80 kVA of power, ensuring optimal protection for vital systems against power interruptions and fluctuations.

One of the main features of the SU80K is its advanced double-conversion technology, which provides clean and consistent power by converting incoming AC power to DC and then back to AC. This process not only isolates connected equipment from raw utility power, but it also ensures that sensitive electronic devices maintain a steady voltage and frequency, ultimately enhancing their performance and lifespan.

In terms of efficiency, the SU80K is equipped with an energy-efficient design that maximizes operation while minimizing energy consumption. The unit operates with an efficiency rating of up to 97% in online mode, which contributes to reduced operational costs over time and is especially beneficial for large-scale deployments.

Another notable characteristic of the SU80K is its modular design, which allows for flexibility and scalability. Users can add additional battery packs to extend runtime, enabling the UPS to adapt to changing power needs without requiring complete system replacement. This feature is particularly advantageous for growing businesses that need to expand their backup power capabilities progressively.

The SU80K also includes advanced monitoring and management options, with an optional network management card that enables remote monitoring via a web interface. This capability provides real-time data on the UPS’s status, battery health, and load levels, allowing IT administrators to make informed decisions to maintain system availability.

Additionally, the UPS features multiple communication ports, including RS-232 and USB interfaces, ensuring compatibility with various devices and ease of integration into existing systems. It also supports SNMP protocols, allowing for seamless integration with network management systems.

Overall, the Tripp Lite SU80K combines high performance, advanced features, and user-friendly management options to create an ideal solution for businesses that require reliable and efficient power protection for their critical equipment. With its strong build quality and commitment to performance, the SU80K stands out as a versatile choice for ensuring business continuity in the face of power disturbances.
