DANGER
Do not attempt to access any internal area of the battery string
yourself. Voltages are always present in the battery strings. If you
suspect that a battery string needs service, contact your service
representative.
Observe these precautions when working on or around batteries:
•
Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
•
Use insulated tools.
•
Wear rubber gloves and boots.
•
Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries or battery
cabinets.
•
Prior to connecting or disconnecting terminal, disconnect the
charging source.
•
Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If it is, remove
the source of the ground. Contact with any part of a grounded
battery can result in an electrical shock. The likelihood of such a
shock is reduced if such grounds are removed during installation
and maintenance.
•
When replacing batteries, use the same number of sealed, lead-acid
batteries.
•
Dispose of batteries according to your local codes for disposal
requirements.

Performing preventive maintenance
The battery cabinets require very little preventive maintenance.
However, inspect the system periodically to verify that the units are
operating normally and that the batteries are in good condition.
4.2.1
Periodic maintenance
Inspect the UPS periodically to determine if components, wiring, and
connections exhibit evidence of overheating. Pay particular attention to
bolted connections.
