contaminants. Installation should be conducted by qualified individuals.
4.1.
Location
The N Series UPS is intended for installation in a temperature and humidity
controlled indoor environment, free of conductive contaminants with unrestricted
airflow. Ambient temperature must not exceed 40
º
C (104
º
F).
IMPORTANT: Maximum battery life is obtained by placing the battery in a room at
an ambient temperature of 15
º
C to 25
º
C. Battery life decreases by half for every
10
º
C above 25
º
C.
Air vents are located on the front, rear and sides of the UPS system. Do not position
the UPS in an enclosed area with restricted airflow. Allow a minimum of 100mm (4
inches) around the UPS, with a minimum of 300mm (12 inches) at the rear for easy
operator access to the connections and the rear panel mounted
input/output/battery/maintenance breakers. (Figure 4.1.1)
Maintenance and Servicing of the N Series requires access to all sides of the UPS
system and battery banks. Provide the necessary free space and flexible wiring to
allow complete access to the UPS system.
