The UPS is equipped with output 
receptacles. Connect the 
equipment to be protected to the 
output receptacles.

NOTE:

 Allow the batteries to 

charge at-least 5 hours before first

regardless of the off/on status of the 
UPS.

2.  Choosing a location

Install the UPS in a temperature 
controlled environment that is free 
of corrosive and conductive 
contaminants. Avoid locations near 
heat or water sources and exposed 
to direct sunlight.
For proper ventilation, leave 100 
mm clearance on all sides of the UPS.
The input outlet should be nearby and 
easily accessible.

3.  Installing the UPS

The UPS and optional External 
Battery Cabinets may be installed 
in either a tower or rack 
configuration.

•  For tower installation, assemble 

and attach the tower support 
stands and spacers.

•  For rack installation:
1. Attach the handles to the UPS.
2. Install the rail kit in the rack.

NOTE:

 Align shelf of rack kit with 

rack U number for proper 
alignment.

3. Install the UPS in the rack.
4. Secure the handles to the rack.

After UPS installation, install internal 
batteries shipped in separate box.
