Linear Plus Series User Instruction Manual
• The maintenance bypass switch is intended for use by experienced service personnel only. It is
located at the back of the unit, behind a safety cover (refer to Figure 9). Open the safety cover to
locate and operate the maintenance bypass switch. Instructions for operating the maintenance
bypass switch must be followed or damage to UPS may occur.
Leakage Currents
WARNING:
Connect the ground (earth) safety conductor before any other cables are connected.
Batteries
WARNINGS:
• Battery maintenance should only be performed by authorized personnel.
• Batteries installed in the UPS or within the external battery cabinets contain electrolyte. Under
normal conditions the battery cases are dry. A damaged battery may leak electrolyte that can be
dangerous in contact with the skin and cause irritation to the eyes. Should this happen wash the
affected part with copious amounts of water and seek immediate medical attention.
• Voltage is always present on the battery terminals.
• Even when discharged, a battery has the capacity to supply a high short circuit current, which, in
addition to causing damage to the battery itself and to associated cables, may expose the operator to
the risk of burns.
• Batteries should not be kept in storage for periods exceeding 6 months at 77°F (25°C) without being
recharged (having been charged to 100% at the beginning of any such period). If these conditions
are not respected, the performance of the battery can no longer be guaranteed. It is advisable to
recharge the batteries at least once every 4 months.
• Since new batteries often do not provide full capacity after an initial charge it may be necessary to
carry out a number of discharge/recharge cycles before optimum performance is achieved.
• In order to protect the environment, batteries must be disposed of in accordance with the regulations
governing disposal/recycling of toxic and harmful waste.
