3 Safety
3.1 General safety instruction
Read and observe the user manual and safety instructions in this chapter before
taking any further action (transportation, storage, connection, start-up etc.).
Since the UPS equipment uses mains voltage and has a suitable energy
accumulator (high-capacity batteries) installed either inside or outside the
device, the instructions in this chapter are very important for all users and
personnel. For this reason, appropriate safety instructions on the topic of
batteries and battery packs are also dealt with here. When using external battery
packs, you must also follow the safety instructions in the accompanying
instruction manual.
Work on the UPS equipment may only be performed by authorized technical
personnel.
3.2 Transport and storage
When storing equipment, make sure that it is also securely positioned.
The equipment must not be transported or stored upside down.
Position the equipment securely during transportation taking its centre of
gravity into account. Due to its weight, UPS equipment with integrated batteries
may drop suddenly if its position shifts slightly.
When storing equipment, make sure that it is also securely positioned.
3.3 Placement
The UPS is intended for use in ventilated rooms.
During setup or installation, the installation location prescribed by the
manufacturer must be observed.
There is a risk of condensation where the UPS is exposed to extreme and
rapid temperature changes. Before taking any further steps, the equipment
should be allowed to acclimatize for at least 2 hours.
Never set up or operate the equipment in a damp environment.
Keep fluids away from the equipment.
The UPS must not be set up near heat sources.
Ensure that the vents of the equipment are not blocked and that the circulation
of air is not impeded.
