Intended Use

1.  The unit serves as a single-phase on-line uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for its connected loads.
2.  Do not connect laser printers or scanners to the UPS. This may cause damage to the unit.
3.  The UPS is available in 1.44kVA and 2kVA capacities. Each model has internal batteries. The nominal rating voltage of

internal batteries is 48V for 1.44kVA and 2kVA.

4. The UPS can be used to power network servers, switches, unified communications systems, professional workstations and

a variety of associated network and desktop computing hardware.

Handling

Transport the unit only in suitable packaging to protect it from jolts and shocks.

Placement & Installation Warnings

1. Install the UPS in a well-ventilated area, away from extreme temperatures, excess moisture, heat, dust, flammable gas or

explosives.

2. Leave adequate space of at least 15 cm in front and at rear of the UPS for proper ventilation.
3. Electrical maintenance and service requires access to the front and back of the UPS. Leave necessary space to allow

service personnel access to the UPS.

4. The UPS can be installed horizontally (rack mounted) according to the user’s desired arrangement, following the below

safety warnings:
• Do not mount the UPS with its front or rear panel facing down at any angle.
• Do not stack the units.
• Do not place any objects on the UPS or on any other accessory associated with the UPS.
• For rack-mounting installation, ensure the chosen cabinet can support the weight of the UPS on the rails that may be

mounted in an associated rack. Also take your chosen location’s floor weight loading into consideration.

• For rack-mounting installation, do not let the rack become top heavy. Install the heaviest equipment near the bottom of

the rack.

• For weight information about the UPS, please refer to section

12 Technical Specifications

• Install the UPS in accordance with the conditions specified in

3.1 Installation Data

5. To reduce the risk of electric shock, install the UPS in a temperature- and humidity-controlled indoor area free of conductive

contaminants.

6. The operating temperature is 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C).

General Warnings

Electrical shock hazard:

even when the UPS is disconnected from the mains, hazardous voltage may still exist

at the output receptacles of the UPS. Before performing maintenance, cut off the AC source and disconnect the
UPS. Next, follow section

8 Internal Battery Replacement

to remove the internal batteries. Only after the above

procedures are completed can the maintenance action be performed.

1. Even when all switches and/ or circuit breakers are open, dangerous voltage is present within the unit.
2. Do not open or remove the cover of the UPS. High-voltage electric shock could result. There are no user-serviceable parts

inside.

3. Maintenance service must be performed by qualified service personnel. Only qualified personnel can carry out any operation

that requires protection panels to be opened and/or removed.

4.  Any repairs or modifications by the user may result in out-of-warranty repair charges or unsafe electrical conditions.
5.  Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet.
6.  Do not plug the UPS’s input cord into its own output receptacles.
