1 Important Safety Instruction
1.1.
An Important Notice
1.1.1 To ensure safety in all applications where a UPS system is hardwired to the
electrical supply the UPS must be installed by a Qualified Electrical
Contractor.
1.1.2 The UPS has its own internal energy source (battery). If the UPS is
switched on when there is no AC power is available, there could be voltage
at the output terminals.
1.1.3 Servicing of the UPS system must be performed by
Qualified Service
Personnel ONLY.
MINUTEMAN accepts no liabilities and is not limited to:
injury to the Service Personnel, or damages to; the UPS system, or the
connected equipment caused by the incorrect installation or servicing of the
UPS system.
1.1.4 Make sure that the input voltage rating of the UPS matches the supply
voltage.
1.1.5 This UPS series is intended to be install in a temperature controlled
environment that is free of conductive contaminants. Select a location that
will provide good air circulation for the UPS at all times. Avoid locations near
heating devices, water or excessive humidity, or where the UPS is exposed
to direct sunlight. Route power cords so they cannot be walked on or
damaged.
1.1.6 To eliminate overheating of the UPS, keep all ventilation openings free from
obstruction, and do not store anything on top of the UPS system. Keep the
UPS system at least 12” (30 cm) away from the wall.
1.1.7 The battery will discharge naturally if the UPS is unused for any length of
time. The batteries should be recharged every 2-3 months if unused.
1.1.8 This UPS supports electronic equipment in offices, telecommunications,
process control, and medical applications.
1.1.9 Risk of Electrical Shock. Make sure the UPS is completely turned off when
moving the UPS from one location to another.
1.1.10 The UPS has a Maintenance Bypass Switch. Follow the procedures to
perform the maintenance bypass operation.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
- This manual contains important
instructions that should be followed during the Installation and the
Maintenance of the UPS and batteries.
1.1.12
CAUTION
- A disconnect switch must be provided by the user for the AC
output circuit when the UPS’s output is hardwired. To reduce the risk of fire,
connect only to a circuit provided with branch circuit over-current protection
for 40 amperes in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA
70.
1.1.13
CAUTION
- To reduce the risk of fire, connect the input to a circuit provided
with branch circuit over-current protection for 40 amperes in accordance
with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Use No. 8 AWG, 60
°
C
copper wire and apply 22.1lb-in Torque force when connecting to terminal
block.
1.1.14
CAUTION
- To reduce the risk of electrical shock with the installation of this
UPS system and the connected equipment, the installer must ensure that
the combined sum of the AC leakage current does not exceed 3.5mA.
1.1.15
WARNING
- This Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) contains potentially
hazardous voltages. Do not attempt to disassemble the UPS system
beyond the battery replacement procedure. This UPS system contains no
user serviceable parts. QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY must
perform the maintenance and the battery replacement for this UPS system.
1.2.
