XU115-510
INTRODUCTION
The XU115 is a 1000 VA line interactive uninterruptible power supply, surge eliminator, and power conditioner
in a magnetically shielded steel enclosure. It operates from 120 volts AC and has a 6-foot, grounded, 3-wire #14
line cord. It has 4 grounded AC receptacles and two of these provide battery back-up protection. Overall
dimensions are 3.5” H x 19.0” W x 10.5” D. Weight is 32.0 pounds.
The XU115 has a load rating of 15 amps at 120 volts, a self-test circuit with visual indicator, and provides
EMI/RFI filtering. It meets Federal Grade A, Class 1, Mode 1 guidelines for power line surge suppressors and
withstands at least 1000 occurrences of surge pulse voltages, up to 6000 volts. SentryPlus™ auto shutdown and
monitoring software is also included with XU115 hardware.
INSTALLATION
The SurgeX XU115 is designed to be installed in a 19 inch equipment rack and requires two units (2-U) of rack
space. Remove the product from its packaging and slide it into place in the rack being careful to feed the power
cord into the rack first and guide it so that it does not get caught or jammed as the product is installed. Use the
four screws provided with the product to secure the rack ears to the rack rails. These screws can be tightened by
hand and do not require tools.
120 Volt Connections
Connect power to the unit by plugging the cord into a 120V ac receptacle.
Caution – To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided with 20 amperes maximum branch
circuit over-current protection in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Plug the UPS
into a two pole, three wire, grounded receptacle only. Do not use extension cords, adapter plugs, or surge strips.
The XU115 has a total of 6 receptacles: 4 UPS/surge protected outlets, 2 surge protection only outlets. Each
receptacle is rated for a maximum load of 15 amps, but the total load also must not exceed 15 amps. Plug the
equipment cords into the UPS/surge outlets or the surge protection only outlets. Note that the UPS outlets
should not be used when equipment load is expected to exceed 1000VA (600W).
Battery Connection
The XU115 is shipped with the batteries disconnected. Batteries must be connected before use. To connect,
remove the two screws from the battery access panel on rear of unit. Slide battery pack out partially and attach
the red wires/connectors together (these wires can be found sitting on top of the batteries). Carefully slide the
battery back into the chassis until it is flush with the chassis edge and replace the battery access panel using the
two screws in the right side of the panel.
Connecting Your Equipment
Plug the mission critical equipment into the UPS/Surge output receptacles on the rear panel of the UPS. Plug
the non-critical equipment into the Surge Only output receptacles on the rear panel of the UPS. Do not use
extension cords, adapter plugs or surge strips on the output of the UPS. Ensure that you do not exceed the
maximum output rating of the UPS.
