2-4. Setup the UPS
Before installing the UPS, please read below to select proper location to install UPS.
1.
UPS should be placed on the flat and clean surface. Place it in an area away from vibration, dust, humidity, high
temperature, flammable liquids, gas, corrosive and conductive contaminants. Install the UPS indoors in a clean
environment, where it is away from window and door. Maintain minimum clearance of 100mm in the bottom of
the UPS to avoid dust and high temperature.
2.
Place UPS: It’s equipped with fan for cooling. Therefore, place the UPS in a well-ventilated area. It’s required to
maintain minimum clearance of 100mm in the front of the UPS and 300mm in the back and two sides of the UPS
for heat dissipation and easy-maintenance.
Step 1: External battery connection
For safety consideration, the UPS is shipped out from factory without connecting battery wires.
Before connecting to external batteries, it’s required to have the internal battery wire disconnected.
Follow the below steps to make external battery connection.
1.
Turn off UPS and remove power plug from the mains.
2.
Remove front panel and disconnect internal battery wire.
3.
Remove the cover of the external battery connector by using a screwdriver.
4.
Plug the battery cable into the external battery connector of the UPS and the battery pack(s).
Note: If you have multiple battery packs available, connect them serially. An example is shown in the diagram
below (connecting the second battery connector of the first battery pack to the first battery connector of the
second battery pack).
