CAUTION! 

Only TN-S or TN-C-S mains configurations are allowed at the 

UPS  unit's  input,  and  only  a  TN-S  configuration  is  allowed  at  the  UPS 

unit’s output.

 

 

 

CAUTION! 

No extension cords may be used for connecting the UPS.

 

 

 

CAUTION! 

The UPS must not be installed near inflammable materials!

 

  Technicians must not work alone in hazardous conditions that may be dangerous 

to health and/or life. 

  Water  vapour  may  begin  condensing  shortly  after  bringing  the  UPS  from  a  cold 

room  to  a  warm  room.  The  UPS  must  be  completely  dry  before  installation  and 

operation. The acclimatization should last at least 2 hours. 

  UPS units and battery packs must not be installed in humid environment. 

  UPS units and battery packs must not be installed in places where they would be 

exposed to direct sunlight. They must not be installed near sources of heat. 

  Ventilation openings in the UPS unit casing must not be blocked. Always observe 

distances to ventilation openings specified in the manual. 

  Before  connecting  the  units,  is  necessary  to  check  the  condition  of  all  leads, 

cables, connectors, sockets and plugs, as well as that of the unit itself. 

  The device must be connected to a power supply circuit with a PE protection line. 

Failure to do so puts the user at the risk of electric shock. 

  To  reduce  the  risk  of  electric  shock  (in  case  the  grounding  cannot  be  checked), 

the unit must be disconnected from the mains before installation or connecting to 

other  equipment.  The  power  lead  may  only  be  reconnected  after  making  all 

required connections. 

  The earthing wire in the electric installation carries the leakage current away from 

the receivers. The leakage currents of the receivers connected to the unit’s output 

are summ

ed in the UPS unit’s power lead. The total leakage current may trip the 

protections (residual current circuit breaker) and result in disconnecting the power 

supply to the receivers. 

  The  UPS  is  connected  in  a  permanent  manner.  Consequently,  the  fixed  wiring 

should feature a circuit breaker.
