Lead (Pb) acid battery in the inside of the enclosure.
For disposal instructions for the battery, see user's manual.
Only open the battery compartment in the described way, do not disassemble
other parts of the UPS.
DANGER: Risk of electric shock. Do not touch uninsulated battery terminal.
CAUTION:
Safety instructions - save these instructions! This manual contains important
instructions that should be followed during installation and maintenance of the
UPS and batteries.
This UPS contains batteries, which are potentially hazardous to user, even when
the UPS is not connected to the utility power.
The AC output of the UPS need a disconnect switch such as a breaker which
has to be provided by users.
The over-current protection for the output AC circuit has to be provided by
users. The UPS has an electronic protection of AC output short circuit.
Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel who are
knowledgeable about batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized
personnel away from batteries.
When replacing batteries, replace with the same number and type of battery.
CAUTION! Do not dispose of battery or batteries in a fire. The batteries may
explode.
CAUTION! Do not open or mutilate the battery or batteries. The released
electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic.
CAUTION! A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short
circuit current. The following precautions should be observed when working on
batteries.
- Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
- Use tools with insulated handles.
- Wear rubber gloves and boots.
- Do not lay tools or metal parts on the top of batteries.
- Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery
terminals.
- Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded,
remove source of ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can
result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock will be reduced if such
grounds are moved during installation and maintenance (applicable to UPS and
a remote battery supply not having a grounded supply circuit).
