Location Guidelines
Keep the following guidelines in mind when choosing the location for your system and batteries:
•
Verify that the environment meets the requirements in “Storage and Operating Environment” on
page 7. The environment can affect the reliability and performance of both the unit and the
batteries.
•
Choose a permanent location for the unit. Attempting to move the unit after you have installed the
batteries can damage the batteries and the cabinet.
CAUTION
Do not move the unit after you install the batteries. If you do, the unit and batteries may be
damaged.
CEC requires the unit to be located in a service room. If the room is equipped with a sprinkler
system, the unit must be provided with sprinkler proof covers.
The system should be connected to the emergency generator, if available.
This equipment is heavy. Refer to Table 3.4 when you choose a site to make sure that the floor
can support the weight of the system, the batteries, and any other necessary equipment.

Receiving and Moving the Unit and the Batteries
Systems weigh several hundred pounds, (see Table 3.4; ask your sales representative for additional
information). Make sure you are prepared for these weights before you unload or move the unit or the
batteries. Do not install any batteries until you have permanently installed the unit and connected all
conduit and wiring.
