USER’S
MANUAL
UNINTERRUPTIBLE
POWER
SUPPLY
(UPS)
DETERMINING
THE
POWER
REQUIREMENTS
OF
YOUR
EQUIPMENT
1.
Make
sure
the
total
Volt
‐
Amp
(VA)
requirements
of
your
connected
equipment
does
not
exceed
the
maximum
VA
rating
for
the
UPS.
The
maximum
VA
ratings
are
shown
in
the
Specifications
section
of
this
document.
2.
Ensure
that
the
equipment
plugged
into
the
battery
‐
powered
outlets
does
not
exceed
the
UPS
rated
capacity.
If
UPS
rated
capacities
are
exceeded,
an
overload
condition
may
occur
and
cause
the
UPS
to
shut
down
and
trip
the
circuit
breaker.
3.
If
the
power
requirements
of
your
equipment
are
listed
in
values
other
than
Volt
‐
Amps
(VA),
convert
Watts
(W)
or
Amps
(A)
into
VA
by
doing
the
calculations
below.
Note:
The
equation
below
only
calculates
the
maximum
amount
of
VA
that
the
equipment
can
use,
not
what
is
typically
used
by
the
equipment
at
any
given
time.
Users
should
expect
usage
requirements
to
be
approximately
60%
of
the
value
to
estimate
power
requirements:
_____
Watts
(W)
x
1.67
=
_____
VA
or
_____
Amps
(A)
x
120
=
_____
VA
Add
the
totals
for
all
of
the
equipment
and
multiply
this
total
by
0.65
to
calculate
actual
power
requirements.
Note:
Many
factors
can
affect
the
amount
of
power
that
your
computer
system
will
require.
The
total
load
that
you
will
be
placing
on
the
battery
‐
powered
outlets
should
not
exceed
85%
of
the
UPS
capacity.
HARDWARE
INSTALLATION
GUIDE
1.
Your
new
UPS
may
be
used
immediately
upon
receipt,
however,
charging
the
battery
for
at
least
4
hours
is
recommended
to
ensure
that
the
batteries
maximum
charge
capacity
is
achieved.
Charge
loss
may
occur
during
shipment
and
storage.
To
recharge
the
battery,
plug
the
power
cord
into
the
correct
type
AC
wall
outlet
and
turn
the
power
switch
on.
Note:
Xtreme
Power
units
will
charges
the
battery
with
the
power
switch
in
either
the
on
or
off
position.
2.
With
the
UPS
off
and
unplugged,
connect
your
computer,
monitor,
and/or
any
other
externally
powered
equipment
into
the
battery
power
supplied
outlets.
DO
NOT
plug
a
laser
printer,
copier,
space
heater,
vacuum,
or
other
large
electrical
device
into
the
UPS.
The
power
demands
of
these
devices
will
overload
and
possibly
damage
the
UPS.
3.
Plug
the
UPS
into
a
2
pole,
3
wire
grounded
receptacle
(AC
wall
outlet)
as
rated
in
the
Specifications
section
of
this
document.
Make
sure
the
wall
outlet
is
protected
by
a
fuse
or
circuit
breaker
and
does
not
service
equipment
with
large
inrush
electrical
demands
(e.g.
refrigerator,
copier,
etc).
Note:
DO
NOT
use
extension
cords
or
power
or
surge
strips
on
the
input
or
the
output
of
the
UPS.
