1. Important Safety Instructions

1.1  Important Notice 

SAVE THIS MANUAL – This manual contains important Instructions that must be followed during the instal- lation 

and maintenance of the UPS.

 

The UPS has its own internal energy source (battery). A voltage may be present at the output termi- nals 

even when no AC input power is available.

 

Make sure that the AC utility outlet is correctly grounded.

 

Do not open the UPS, as there are no serviceable parts inside and your warranty will be void.

 

Do not repair the unit yourself. Contact your local supplier or your warranty will be void.

 

Make sure that the input voltage of the UPS matches the supply voltage.

 

To prevent the UPS from overheating, keep all ventilation openings unobstructed. Do not place any- thing 

on top of the UPS. Keep the UPS rear panel at least 20 cm away from the wall or other objects.

 

Make sure the UPS is installed in an appropriate environment where the ambient temperature is 0 to 40°C 

(32 to 104°F), and humidity is 30 to 90% non-condensing.

 

Do not install the UPS in direct sunlight. Your warranty will be void if the batteries fail.

 

Install  the  UPS  in  a  temperature  controlled  indoor  area  that  is  free  of  conductive  contaminants  (not 

designed for outdoor use).

 

Dusty, corrosive, or salty environments can damage the UPS.

 

Install the UPS away from objects that give off excessive heat and areas that are excessively wet.

 

Do not install the UPS in an environment with sparks, smoke or gas. Not for use in a computer room as 

defined in the Standard for the Protection of Electronic Computer/Data processing Equipment,

 

ANSI/NFPA 75.

 

If liquids enter into the UPS or foreign objects are dropped into the unit, the warranty will be void.

 

The battery will gradually discharge if the system is unused for extended periods.

 

If unused, recharge the UPS every 2 to 3 months. If this is not done, the warranty will void. The batter- ies 

will automatically be recharged and kept in good condition if the UPS is installed and used.

 

This  UPS  supports  electronic  equipment  in  offices,  telecommunications,  process  control,  medical  and 

security applications. Only authorized personnel must install the UPS in the following locations:

 

a. Medical applications directly related to human life.
b. Elevators, metro (subway) system or any other equipment related to human safety.
c.

Public security system or critical computer systems.

Do not install the UPS in an environment with sparks, smoke or gas. Not for use in a computer room as 

defined in the Standard for the Protection of Electronic Computer/Data processing Equipment, ANSI/ NFPA 

75

 

Make sure the UPS is completely switched off when moving the UPS from one place to another. It may 

cause electrical shocks if the output is not completely switched off.
