3. INSTALLATION
3.1.
Unpacking and Inspection
Examine the Limousin UPS packaging for damage. Inform the carrier
immediately if and/or when damage is noticed. Retain the packaging for
future use.
3.2. Placement
Install the Limousin UPS in a protected area with adequate airflow, free of
excessive dust and other airborne particles. Allow for air circulation
through the Limousin UPS. A minimum clearance of 10cm is required on
all sides. Do not operate the Limousin UPS where the temperature and
humidity is outside the specified limits.
3.3.
Connect to Utility
Connect the included AC input power connector to utility power and the
UPS system.
3.4.
Charging the Battery
The UPS charges its battery whenever the UPS is in “LINE” mode.
NOTE: For best results, initially charge the battery for 4 hours before
connecting a load.
3.5.
Connecting the Load
Plug the load into the power outlets on the rear of the Limousin UPS. To
use the UPS as a master on/off switch, make sure all of the loads
connected to the UPS are switched on.
CAUTION:
Never connect a laser printer or plotter to the UPS with other computer
equipment.
A laser printer or plotter draws significantly more power when starting up
than when idling. The laser printer or plotter will overload the UPS on
start up. Thus, the UPS needs to be increased in size to accommodate the
inrush of power if a laser printer or plotter
requires protection against
blackouts, brownouts and over-voltage.
3.6. Storage
Conditions
Store the UPS upright, covered and in a cool, dry location, with its battery
fully charged. Before storing, charge the UPS for at least eight (8) hours.
3.7. Extended
Storage
To store the Limousin UPS for extended periods, these instructions should
be followed:
1.
In environments where the ambient temperature is -15 to
+30
°
C (+5 to +86
°
F), charge the UPS battery every 6 months.
2.
In environments where the ambient temperature is +30 to
+45
