IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. This Manual Contains Important Instructions that should be followed during Installation and
Maintenance of the UPS and Batteries.
2. The equipment can be operated by any individual. No previous experience is required.
3.
CAUTION (UPS with Internal Batteries)
: Risk of electric shock - Hazardous live parts inside
this unit are energized from the battery supply even when the input AC power is disconnected.
Refer to top, rear and/or underside of the unit for cautionary markings.
4.
CAUTION (No User Serviceable Parts)
: Risk of electric shock, do not remove cover. No user
serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
5.
CAUTION (Non-isolated Battery Supply)
: Risk of electric shock, battery circuit is not isolated
from AC input; hazardous voltage may exist between battery terminals and ground. Test before
touching. Do not disconnect battery connector/s under load.
6.
WARNING (Fuses)
: To reduce the risk of fire, replace only with the same type and rating of fuse.
7.
CAUTION (Live Heat Sink)
: Risk of electric shock - heatsink is live. Disconnect unit prior to servicing.
8.
WARNING (Controlled Environment)
: Intended for installation in a controlled environment.
The maximum ambient temperature is 77°F / 25°C.
9.
CAUTION
: When replacing batteries, replace with the same type and number of batteries:
One Sealed lead acid battery, rated 12 V, 8.5 Ah max. Do not touch uninsulted battery terminals
10.
ATTENTION (Electric Shock Hazard)
: Even when the unit is disconnected from the AC supply,
hazardous voltage may still exist via the battery supply. The battery supply should be disconnected
at the positive and negative termianls when the UPS needs to be serviced or the batteries replaced.
11.
CAUTION
: Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, as they may explode.
12.
CAUTION
: Do not open or damage the battery, electrolyte may be released which is harmful to
the skin and eyes.
13.
CAUTION
: A battery can present a risk of electric shock and high short circuit current.
The following precautions should be taken when working with batteries:
a. Remove watches, rings and other jewelry or metal objects.
b. Use only tools with insulated handles.
c. Wear rubber gloves and boots.
d. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
e. Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.
14. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the UPS from the AC input power supply
before installing a communication interface cable. Reconnect the power cord only after
communication interconnections have been made.
15. Battery replacement should be performed or supervised by personnel with knowledge of
batteries. Keep unauthorized personnel away from the batteries.
16.
CAUTION
: To reduce risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.
17.
CAUTION (High Leakage Current - Ground Connection Essential)
: The total leakage current
for the UPS and any connected equipment shall not exceed 3.5 mA.
18.
CAUTION (Size of Branch Circuit Over-current Protection)
: To reduce risk of fire, connect only
to a circuit capable of 35 amperes (2000VA models) and 50 amperes (3000VA models) maximum
branch circuit over-current protection in accordance with National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
19.
CAUTION (For Models with I/P Terminal Block):
For 800 - 1500VA models: Use No. 10 AWG
type TW cable, trade size 3/4 in. conduit, 60°C, copper wire for input an output field wiring. For
2000/3000VA models: Use No. 8 AWG type TW cable, trade size 3/4 in. conduit, 60°C, copper
wire for input/output field wiring. Use tightening torque of 29 ft.-lbs./40Nm to secure wiring to block.
