3.2 DELIVERY

When delivered, inspect the

package integrity

and

the physical conditions of the

cabinets

carefully

In case of any damage sustained during transport, immediately inform the carrier and contact
your local

Service Center

detailed report

of the damage is necessary for any insurance claim.

A DAMAGED UPS MUST NEVER BE INSTALLED OR CONNECTED TO
UTILITY OR BATTERY!

3.3 STORAGE

3.3.1 Storage of the UPS

The UPS is carefully packed for transport and storage so that it is in perfect condition when
installed.
Never leave a UPS outside the building and don’t store other packages on the top of the
UPS.

It is advisable to store the UPS in its original package in a

dry, dust-free room, away from

chemical substances, and with a temperature range not exceeding

-13°F

(-25°C) to

131°F

(55°C).

Some important functions of the UPS, such as the customized functions, are defined by
parameters stored in a RAM memory.
A small backup

Battery

located on the Control Unit board supplies the RAM.

If the storage time of the UPS exceeds

1 year

, these functions

should be verified

by an

authorized

Service Center

before putting the UPS into operation.

3.3.2 Storage of Battery

When the delivery includes a maintenance free

Battery

, keep in mind that they are subject to

self-discharge and therefore you must recharge the

Battery

The storage time without

Battery

recharge depends on the temperature of the storage site.

The optimal temperature for

Battery

storage is

68°F

(20°C)

77°F

(25°C).

Recharge stored maintenance free

Battery

every:

6 months when the storage temperature is 68°F (20°C)

3 months when the storage temperature is 86°F (30°C)

2 months when the storage temperature is 95°F (35°C)
