Chapter 1: Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this power protection product. It has been designed
and manufactured to provide many years of trouble free service. Please read
this manual before installing your Endeavor Series UPS, models ED5000RT-
CU, ED6000RT-CU, ED8000RT-CU and ED10000RT-CU as it provides impor-
tant information that should be followed during installation and maintenance of
the UPS system allowing you to correctly set up your system for the maximum
safety and performance. Included is information on customer support and
factory service if it is required. If you experience a problem with the UPS
system please refer to the Troubleshooting guide in this manual to correct the
problem or collect enough information so that the Technical Support Depart-
ment can assist you.
CAUTION!
The ED5000RT-CU and ED6000RT-CU come with an input power
cord in the box. Connect the UPS to a two pole, three wire, grounded AC wall
outlet. The outlet must be connected to the appropriate branch protection
(circuit breaker). Connection to any other type of outlet may result in a shock
hazard and violate local electrical codes. The AC wall outlet shall be installed
near the UPS and shall be easily accessible. The plug on the input power cord
on this UPS series is intended to serve as a disconnect device. Do not use
extension cords, adapter plugs, or surge strips. The installation of upstream
and downstream protective devices is highly recommended when the UPS is
connected to the mains and the load.
CAUTION!
The ED8000RT-CU and ED10000RT-CU are hardwire input only.
The pins for the input and output cables are included. The UPS must be
connected to the appropriate branch protection (circuit breaker) to avoid shock
hazard and violation of any local electrical codes. The branch protection
(circuit breaker) shall be installed near the UPS and shall be easily accessible.
The installation of upstream and downstream protective devices is highly rec-
ommended when the UPS is connected to the mains and the load.
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of electrical shock with the installation of this
UPS equipment and the connected equipment, the user must ensure that the
UPS is properly grounded due to a possible risk of AC current leakage.
CAUTION!
This UPS series is
ONLY
intended to be installed in an indoor
temperature controlled environment that is free of conductive contaminants.
This UPS series is not intended for use in a computer room as defined in the
Standard for the Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equip-
ment ANSI/NFPA 75.
CAUTION!
The maximum ambient operating temperature for this UPS series
is 40°C (“0 ~ 40°C” for Ambient Operation).
The external vents and openings on the UPS are provided for ventilation.
To ensure reliable operation of the UPS and to protect the UPS from over-
heating, these vents and openings must not be blocked or covered. Do not
insert any object into any of the vents or openings that may hinder the ve-
ntilation.
Install the UPS system in a well ventilated area, away from excess moistu-
re, heat, dust, flammable gas or explosives.
Leave adequate space (at least 15cm) around all sides of the UPS system
for proper ventilation.
Do not mount the UPS system with its front or rear panel facing down at
any angle.
Before usage, you must allow the UPS system to adjust to room temper-
ature (20°C~25°C or 68°F~77°F) for at least one hour to avoid moisture
condensing inside the UPS.
WARNING: Qualified Service Personnel ONLY
must perform the Installa-
tion and Servicing of these UPS systems. MINUTEMAN accepts no liabilities
and is not limited to: injury to the Service Personnel, or damages to; the UPS,
the Battery Pack, or the connected equipment caused by the incorrect instal-
lation or servicing of the UPS system. There are optional isolation step-down
transformers (XFR) and Maintenance Bypass Switches (MTBS) for these UPS
systems. These UPSs MUST be operated with their respective Battery Packs,
