INSTALLATION 
 

-

 

This DC UPS is intended for use in a controlled indoor environment free of conductive 
contaminants and protected against any type of intrusion. 

-

 

Do not install the DC UPS in an excessively humid environment or near water. 

-

 

Avoid spilling liquids and/or dropping any foreign object(s) onto the DC UPS. 

-

 

The unit must be placed in a sufficiently ventilated area; the ambient temperature should not 
exceed 40°C (104°F). 

-

 

Optimal battery life is obtained if the ambient temperature does not exceed 25°C (77°F). 

-

 

HIGH GROUND LEAKAGE CURRENT: ground connection completed before connecting the 
AC voltage wires on the input! 

-

 

Switching OFF the DC UPS does not isolate the DC UPS from the utility as the utility supply is 
still 

HOT

 at the input terminal strip. Supply breaker needs to be opened. 

-

 

It is important that air can move freely around and through the unit. Do not block the air vents. 

-

 

Avoid locations in direct sunlight or near heat sources (gas or electric heaters). 

 

STORAGE 
 

-

 

Store the DC UPS in a dry location free of contaminants;  

-

 

Storage temperature must be within -25°C (-13°F) to 55°C (131°F). 

If the unit is stored for a period exceeding 3 months, the batteries must be recharged 
periodically (time depending on storage temperature). 

 

WARNING! 
LETHAL VOLTAGES MAY BE PRESENT WITHIN THIS UNIT EVEN WHEN IT IS APPARENTLY 
NOT OPERATING. OBSERVE ALL CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS IN THIS MANUAL. FAILURE 
TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. REFER UNIT TO QUALIFIED 
SERVICE PERSONNEL IF MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED. NO ONE SHOULD WORK ON THIS 
EQUIPMENT UNLESS THEY ARE FULLY QUALIFIED TO DO SO. AN INSTALLER SHOULD 
NEVER WORK ALONE. 
 
WARNING! 
WHEN REMOVING POWER FROM THE DC UPS, ALLOW FIVE MINUTES FOR CAPACITORS 
TO DISCHARGE BEFORE WORKING ON THE EQUIPMENT.  
 
CAUTION! 
This equipment complies with the requirements in Part 15 of FCC rules for a Class A 
computing device. Operation of this equipment in a residential area may cause interference 
to radio and TV reception, requiring the operator to take whatever steps necessary to 
correct the interference. 
 
CAUTION! 
Do not put option control wiring in the same conduit as the DC UPS input or output power 
cables.
