SAFETY INSTRUCTION
CAUTION!
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTION-This manual contains important instructions that
should be followed during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.
Caution -
risk of electric shock. The battery circuit is not isolated from the input voltage.
Hazardous voltages may occur between the battery terminals and the ground. Before
touching, please verify that no voltage is present!.
Remove the connection from ground if any part of the battery is determined to be grounded.
When changing batteries, install the same number and same type of batteries..
Do not attempt to dispose of batteries by burning them. This could cause battery explosion.
Do not open or destroy batteries. Escaping electrolyte can cause injury to the skin and eyes.
It may be toxic.
Please replace the fuse or circuit breaker only with the same type and amperage in order to
avoid fire hazards.
Do not dismantle the UPS system, except the specialized technical personnel.
This unit intended for installation in a controlled environment (temperature controlled,
indoor area free of conductive contaminants). Avoid installing the UPS in locations where
there is standing or running water, or excessive humidity.
Do not plug the UPS input into its own output.
Do not attach a power strip or surge suppressor to the UPS.
Do not attach non-computer-related items, such as medical equipment, life-support
equipment, microwave ovens, or vacuum cleaners to UPS.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode.
Batteries may cause electric shock and have a high short-circuit current. Please take the
precautionary measures specified below and any other measures necessary when working
with batteries:
1) Remove wristwatches, rings and other metal objects
2) Use only tools with insulated grips and handles.
3) Wear rubber gloves and boots.
4) Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
5) Disconnect charging source and load prior to installing or maintaining the battery.
6) Remove battery grounds during installation and maintenance to reduce likelihood of shock
Internal battery voltage is 12VDC.Sealed, lead-acid, 6-cell battery.
Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of
batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries.
Do not open or mutilate the battery or batteries. Release electrolyte is harmful to the skin
and eyes. It may be toxic.
Attention, hazardous through electric shock. Also with dis- connection of this unit from the
mains, hazardous voltage still may be accessible through supply from battery. The battery
supply should be therefore disconnected in the plus and minus pole at the connectors of the
battery when maintenance or service work inside the UPS is necessary.
To reduce the risk of overheating the UPS, do not cover the UPS' cooling vents and avoid
exposing the unit to direct sunlight or installing the unit near heat emitting appliances such
as space heater or furnaces.
