3.2 Transportation
WARNING
The UPS is packed on a pallet suitable for handling with a forklift. If using a forklift – or other equipment – to move the UPS, ensure its
load bearing is sufficient to support the total packing weight of the UPS.
The UPS is fixed on the pallet with four balance supports. Do not discard the balance supports, as they may be required for installation
(see section
3.5 UPS Installation
) When removing them, pay attention to the movement of the casters to avoid accidents.
The UPS cabinet may be pushed forward or backwards only; it may not be moved sideways.
If moving the UPS over long distance, use appropriate equipment such as a forklift; do not move the UPS cabinet using its attached
casters over long distances, move the UPS cabinet in its original packaging until at the final destination site.
3.3 Delivery
Inspect the packaging materials and UPS cabinet carefully upon delivery. Do not install a damaged UPS, connect it to a battery or to
the utility. The packing box of the UPS is equipped with an anti-tilt device. Confirm the device does not indicate any shock or excess tilt
during transit. If the device indicates there has been excessive shock or tilt, do not install and contact your local Tripp Lite representative.
3.4 Installation Environment
• The UPS is designed for indoor use only. Do not place or install the UPS in an outdoor area
• When moving the UPS to its installation site, ensure all corridors, doors, gates, elevators, floors, etc. are able to accommodate and
bear the combined weight of the UPS system, any associated battery cabinets and all handling equipment. See
Appendix 1
for UPS
combined weights.
• The installation site should have a dedicated AC circuit available, compatible with the UPS system’s input requirements. See
Appendix 1
for input specifications.
• Ensure the installation area has sufficient space for maintenance and ventilation of the UPS system.
• Maintain the installation area’s temperature below 30°C and the humidity below 90%. The highest operating altitude is 2000 m above
sea level. Please consider the derating values when operating the UPS over 1000 m. The optimum operating temperature for the
batteries is 25°C.
• The UPS should be located in an environment with clean air and adequate ventilation to maintain the ambient temperature within the
UPS operating range.
• The UPS is air-cooled with the aid of internal fans. Do not cover the ventilation openings of the UPS system.
• Install the UPS in an area in which the walls, floors and ceilings are constructed with fireproof materials. The UPS is suitable for
mounting on concrete or other non-combustible surfaces only.
• Install a CO² or dry powder extinguisher in the installation area.
• Ensure the installation area is adequately sized for maintenance and ventilation:
o Maintain a clearance of 1 m from the front of the UPS
o Maintain a clearance of 50 cm from the rear and both sides of the UPS
