5 – Cabinet Installation

Read Section 2 – Important Safety Instructions Before Installation

5-1 Preparation

The UPS system must be installed in a structurally sound area with a level floor that is able to bear the weight of the UPS system, any external battery cabinet and other equipment that will be installed nearby. The installation site should also have a dedicated AC circuit available that is compatible with the UPS system’s input requirements. (See Section 11 – Specifications for details on input requirements and floor loading requirements.) Before unpacking the unit, you should transport the shipping container closer to the final installation site to minimize the distance you will need to move the unit after the protective shipping container has been removed. If you plan to store the UPS system for an extended period before installation, follow the instructions in Section 12 – Storage and Service. (Unpacking and storage instructions are also printed on the “Unpacking and Storage Instructions” sheet secured to the shipping container.) Warning: Do not attempt to unpack or move the UPS system

without assistance.

1-2

Inspect the shipping container(s) for visible damage. If you

 

 

 

determine that the unit has been damaged during shipping, contact

 

 

 

Tripp Lite for assistance. Do not attempt to use the UPS system if

 

 

 

it has been damaged or mishandled.

 

6

 

Confirm that the shipping container is upright and use a

 

 

 

 

 

screwdriver to remove its top panel, front panel and back panel.

 

 

 

Also remove the plastic wrap and interior cushioning material.

 

 

 

Confirm that the model name and rating at the rear of the cabinet

 

 

 

match the unit you ordered. Examine the cabinet for any damaged

 

7

 

or loosened parts. Confirm that the shipping container includes the

 

 

 

 

 

accessories that ship with the unit. The UPS system should include

1

 

 

an RS-232 serial cable, a parallel redundancy cable, a remote EPO

 

 

 

wiring connector, a dry contact input connector (4 contacts), a dry

 

 

 

contact output connector (12 contacts) and a software CD-ROM. If

anything is missing or damaged, contact Tripp Lite for assistance.

 

 

 

 

 

Confirm that the unit is stable, then remove the side panels from

 

 

 

the shipping container.

to the pallet, then remove the shipping brackets from the UPS

 

system. Warning: Be extremely careful, as the unit could shift

 

 

 

unexpectedly.

 

 

 

Use several of the screws you removed in step 1 to attach the top

 

12

 

panel of the shipping container to the front edge of the shipping

 

 

pallet. The smooth surface of the panel should face upward so

 

 

 

that it can be used as a ramp for rolling the unit off the shipping

 

 

 

pallet. Do not attempt to use the top panel as a ramp if it is cracked

 

 

 

or otherwise structurally damaged. Make sure the casters at the

 

13

 

bottom of the unit are unlocked. Using extreme caution, slowly roll

 

 

the unit down the ramp with the aid of several assistants.

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.
